✨✨The darkest nights produce the brightest stars✨✨ You guys are my everything🌹Love you lotsss💕 MISS U❣️💕✨

This is the first time in over 3 months that she has updated her Instagram.

Her father also commented on the news, saying “I shook hands and gave the JYP staff a hug then left. My family went to go get ice cream with Somi’s manager. We’ll be cheering each other on.”

After the news dropped, JYPE released a bunch of articles promoting Shin Ryujin: JYP's new girl group, Jun Somi may have left but they still have 'dark horse' Shin Ryujin (OSEN), Shin Ryujin, not Jun Somi, is the talent that YG-JYP praised to the heavens (Sports Donga), Jun Somi vs Shin Ryujin, 'second stage of life' to be continued as rivals, not co-workers (Sports Chosun).

Yeah, the mediaplay/diversion or whatever JYPE is doing right now is not a good look. I searched Somi's name on Naver and all of the recent/most popular articles had pictures of Ryunjin or mentioned her in some way.

I kinda always thought Somi would fall flat as a soloist and that's why she hasn't debuted yet because JYPE wasn't going to set her up for failure and the new gg plans have been delayed since twice is only getting bigger. Even though she's really popular I hope she finds a path that works for her and her father isn't forcing her into anything.

Well this just keeps getting weirder.

I don’t know much about Shin Ryujin. I will say, as talent-lacking as Somi can appear, she has the ‘it’ factor that’s undeniable. I would hope that Shin Ryujin is able to carry whatever gap Somi may have left in the new GG.

Then again, JYPE has never been able to manage multiple groups/soloists well. Even with the new model their proposing, most of the groups just aren’t hitting the mark like Twice. No amount of marketing and man-power can replicate lightning in a bottle.

Is it me, or is just tacky to use Somi's leaving to promote someone else at JYP (that most people have not heard of) as a her 'rival' ?

Tacky yes but business wise it makes sense. JYPE likely aren't doing this to slander Somi but to convince the public and their investors that they can still have this new group succeed. Right now people think the new group is screwed without Somi so they're pushing Ryujin into the focus because she's their only other popular trainee.

Idc I'm a messy bitch who lives for drama. What happened that led to a contract termination? Looks like I've to wait until she or someone at JYPE snaps and tells the truth. We only know that Somi didn't have the standard trainee contract. She was signed as a soloist in order to promote in variety shows on TV.

I'm not mad that Shin Ryujin is getting the spotlight now. She seems more talented than Somi who's too popular for her own girl group, but not talented enough to be a soloist.

The same way Somi was a JYP trainee on Produce and took the top slot, Ryujin was a JYP trainee on Mix9 and took the top slot. But no one watched that show and the group never even debuted.

These articles won't do her any favors to win the love of the public, so they should just knock it off (she seemed nice enough from what I remember from Mix9. People will preemptively hate her now probably)

Imo Ryujin is cute, but when talking about charisma and stage presence, she can’t hold a candle to Chaeryung or Hwang Yeji. My faves. There is also Eunsoo who is a beauty with vibes that reminds Suzy and Choi Jisu who is a fucking talented vocal. Somi was a great loss to JYPE but they’re not exactly starving either, if they don’t fuck up even more, they can still guarantee a great new GG even more diverse and talented than Twice. Anyway, these fuckers, too bad I love every single girl of that company.

the part of me that was a fan of Sixteen wants her to join WM so she can debut with Chaewon as a girl group. 2 ex JYP super talents who both got popular through Produce 101/48 and joining forces to take down Twice (who are catchy as hell but less talented)... yeah, Im here for that drama

They pushing the new girl because they just loss someone who was obviously meant to be face/visual (and possibly leader if they could justify it) of the new group. I do wish these idols would get a publicist or already have a statement up and going. Whatever her reasons for leaving, it is kind of...unfortunate...to have her become something of an established act TWO YEARS ago only to sit around and wait for an official debut.

After sussing out twitter (lol) I feel like general consensus is definitely that she probably didnt want to get stuck in a group, divide her income amongst like 5-6 other girls when she is the breadwinner/or Suzy of the group so to speak. So she might have left JYP after her dad's guidance that it would just be better to debut as a soloist than to be stuck in a group for 5+ years when she can have a head start on her solo career. It makes sense honestly, but of course this is all just hearsay so who really knows!! Plus it seems like her dad is pretty hands on in her career, and JYP prob didn't like how much he might have been meddling?? Idk regardless, I wish her and the new JYP girl group luck!

I didn't know that ryujin girl and there's a possibility I might like her better than somi in the future since I wasn't a huge fan of somi to begin with ... but yikes at those tacky articles' title. idc if it really works in promoting her, it's just ... yikes.
