noooo! i hadn't heard they're not promoting :(

the highlight medley sounds so good though, the only track i'm not feeling immediately is the first one but i'm sure i'll like the full thing their discography is truly flawless

the pic of myungjun with his thumb in his pocket is... wow

It all sounds nice and they look so gorgeous on the photos. Not a fan of Moonbin's white hair in the video, though.

They've already confirmed that they will not be promoting

But why is Fantagio doing this? Do they want them to loose all they had built last year and flop? They need to get their shit together for the sake of their artists.

I don't know what's going on at Fantagio at all since all of their problems from a while ago. I thought it must be somewhat resolved when their artists started announcing things and having schedules again, but guess not. It's not the first time Astro has released an album and not promoted it though - Winter Dream was also called a "Special" album (whatever that means) and wasn't promoted, but that one didn't even get an MV released, so I guess this is a slight improvement???? Idk I just want them to succeed but they keep getting dropped in the mud like this by bad management.

[dantethetaco.livejournal.com]

Yeah, but if I remember correctly, that time they filmed a mv but decided not to realese it because they didn't like the result. And that time was between two promotions. This time, if things continue like this, we're already gonna hit a year without promotions.

Idk, I just want them to succeed, they are one of my favourite of the newer groups u.u

[aki-san.livejournal.com]

True true, but at the same time, their explanation never made any sense to me? They're the ones in charge of making the MV, and they basically admitted that they fucked up in that apology they posted (https://omonatheydidnt.livejournal.com/19880181.html). I hate that these continuous problems with their management are holding them back.

why would they even do a korean comeback if they're not going to promote? I really hope fantagio gets their shit together because they can really mess up their artists (i don't think the acting jobs will be a problem, but the idols.... /sighs)

I was so excited because this would be my first astro comeback as a proper fan. =/

It's been hard for me to enjoy the build up to this "comeback" because I'm so distrustful of Fantagio and thought even these new songs would be like flavorless leftovers from who knows what but!!! I'm surprised and happy! Every new track sounds good and I genuinely can't think of another group that sounds this sweet, especially like "Stay With Me" & "Real Love". Maybe I'm bias af but my Astro family is really amazing!

I can't believe people are still sleeping this hard! But it's okay. Gonna pre-order and get my Aroha life :'') <333
