pledis execs: uhhhh sfgkljsd what should we do. they keep asking about a pristin comeback. um. *throws dart* chinese single for kyulkyung, perfect

the teasers look really pretty. "hi high" lol that's... something

[kyulkyung.livejournal.com]

"hi high" lol that's... something

? they've always uses this as a greeting.

[myrrhcat.livejournal.com]

i know, it's just kinda funny/unfortunate that the phrase is associated with loona now

[a-suitcase.livejournal.com]

Does this mean there won't be a Pristin comeback anytime soon? I'm a little surprised by how they've been handled, it's been over a year since their last group comeback which seems way too long for a nugu group!

[myungung.livejournal.com]

is this really the end for pristin?

that said, I hope she sells well and carves out a career in China, since Korea doesn't seem to be moving anyway forward

[belintuchiha.livejournal.com]

China is always the way to go!

(i'm so tired of tropical house but i'll take anything at this point)

Why are Pledis handling Pristin's career like that :(
At least Kyulkyung gets her own opportunities! hope it does well for her

[kashiyaek.livejournal.com]

so what happened to kyla? is that why they wont give the full group a comeback?

[kyulkyung.livejournal.com]

i honestly doubt kyla's coming back (she was last seen at kcon la) and some of the non-pristin v members seem to be over it, so who knows. i think ot10 pristin are over.

[kashiyaek.livejournal.com]

damn that's a bummer, not that i blame kyla for it bc she really got way too much shit than she deserved. what about sungyeon and xiyeon? i saw someone on twitter say the two of them practically disappeared?

[kyulkyung.livejournal.com]

both have been mia for a while (sungyeon longer than xiyeon who at least appeared in some recent-ish vlives), so yeah.. don't really know what's going on with the non-pristin v members (minus yehana who was at the isac recording).

[vintage-boom.livejournal.com]

she also had a concussion and from the sounds of it Pledis either were partly responsible or handled it so badly that it was made worse. :/

[juhli.livejournal.com]

Xiyeon had ankle problems again...don't know if it's fully healed by now. Sungyeon is always mia before a comeback bc of songwriting....so maybe it's a good sign we haven't seen her in a while *sad laugh*

[juhli.livejournal.com]

There are some rumors that she will return to Korea in Sep...but dpnt know how legit thed are.
Also, Kyla (and her fam) were asked to come to KCON by Pledis and Pledis CEO was spotted at KCON...they might have had some discussions about Kyla's future then...

[mlmello.livejournal.com]

good for her, but I feel bad for pristin. I thought pledis had learned some lessons from their past management failures, but it doesn't seem like it. how was pristin v results? I can't imagine how frustrated the pristin girls who are sitting in the basement must feel...

[kyulkyung.livejournal.com]

pristin v kinda flopped, their single album only sold 18k on gaon and get it didn't chart at all digitally (both wee woo and we like did). i don't think khighs liked the comeback much, most of them wanted to see the full group again (or at least xiyeon/yuha).

HONESTLY pristin have lost most of their fans by now and even if they came back within the next month(s), they probably wouldn't do well. pinky's cfans don't seem to care about the group either, they're happy just supporting her solo endeavors.

[carra-mia.livejournal.com]

I somehow get the feeling that Pledis just don't want to bother with whole group anymore, that catapulting Kyulkyung's career in China is safer/faster/cheaper than trying to push 10-member group and that Kyla's fiasco/V's poor results are another reasons to let the group die...

[kyulkyung.livejournal.com]

pretty much. pledis can barely manage two group and after nuest blew up pristin stopped being a priority.

[mlmello.livejournal.com]

I had no idea the situation was this bad. =/
I always thought the girls who went to p101 could bring better results. and I always felt like xiyeon could have a similar role as twice's dahyun with variety shows in general, esp after all the time she was a mc. I know she was injured, but did pledis completely forget about her existence? how did pledis not push any of them into acting, I don't understand lol so many webdramas out there to use rookies.

[kyulkyung.livejournal.com]

pledis seem to reject a lot of cf/variety/drama offers actually LOL. idk the company's a mess and most likely still understaffed..

[aures.livejournal.com]

does kyulkyung have to provide for all of pledis and pristin all by herself????????????//

don't get me wrong, i love seeing her a lot and i'm her biggest fan, but is it necessary for her to carry all the weight by herself?

[vintage-boom.livejournal.com]

ughhhhhh I love that she's getting this chance and hope it does rly well but I feel bad for pristin I really loved what they were doing T_T

[sra-interesante.livejournal.com]

good for her!
she's been a while making bank in china without even trying ... she had a good run on chinese variety too

imagine how popular she's gonna be now that agency is gonna actually invest in her solo career
