Echoing the comments i've seen elsewhere that i love how hybe just keeps putting out the same statement lmao. Obviously at this point they've chosen not to comment on it, stop asking

We knew that Yunjin was somewhere in the bighit/source/hybe pool of trainees when she was one of the higher-profile names attached to I-Land girls version. Whether she'll appear in that or in this group which is maybe a separate thing (?) is uncertain, I'm just happy to hear she's still about.

Anyway it'd be what she deserves and she'd be a fantastic main vocal to prop up any group. I can't wait to see how she's improved with 2-3 more years of training.
