    the weirdest part about gwsn’s situation to me id that the better they do, the less their company seems to care about them. their recent comeback like u said had their highest preorders ever and 2nd highest sales? its their 2nd most liked MV after less than a year and yet suddenly now is when their management doesn’t promote or care for them?

    I really think they should capitalize on miya’s popularity more. Send her to variety shows, cast her on dramas and web-dramas even just as a side character. It worked on Astro’s Eunwoo, and Ex April’s Naeun. Considering that Miya’s style is androgynous and unconventional (one might say), people will easily eat that up which can give the group popularity.

    It's sad because we as fans think "I'll buy the album to support them" but then the staff is not being paid, the producers are not being paid and the girls probably arent seeing the money either. It is really frustrating... I am really hoping they can get through it somehow since GWSN is my fav active(?) group, but its been harder and harder these times.
    And no, hybe acquiring the company wont help,idk why so many people say that they want hybe to buy their company. Source music is about to debut a new girl group, which they spent a lot of money on, they wont want to manage another one.

      @krishimehta7857 Před 2 lety +29

      idk, to me, HYBE acquiring companies seems a little sus to me, mainly because, I feel like some groups aren't getting like proper promotions even though they are under one of the biggest entertainment companies in SK. and then like, they are random disbandment for groups like NU'EAST and GFRIEND even though these two groups had so much potential. It's like HYBE are gaining these companies then disband groups as a soft reboot and use it to promote newer groups that they can control.
      If HYBE acquired rights to GWSN, then I feel that HYBE would probably entirely change GWSN'S concept or smth like that, idk HYPE seems sus.

      Yeah hybe cannot be a go-to “safe house.” It’s not this weird savior company who is gunna rescue every poorly managed company/group and even then it’s still the company that makes the decisions but now under a larger one. Plus it would just become one boring monopoly which it’s already starting to be. Hybe is good with its own organic groups BTS, TXT, and I’ll include Enhypen too since it’s been related to hybe/Bighit since the beginning even though many want to exclude them. I assume they’ll do well with lesserafim too but I can’t say anything about the rest. Svt is still going well bc they have a solid fan base and have not yet reached the ends of their contract. But if we see a sudden disbandment of then within the next year, then we have an answer.

    I only started really listening to GWSN with their most recent comeback, I went and listened to their entire discography and now I'm obsessed. I don't want to see anything bad happen to this group, they're really so talented and are making such unique music. "I Can't Breathe" is the song that first drew me in - specifically Miya's fancams during their promotions for that song - but all the members are so incredibly gifted. You can bet that if the producers aren't getting paid, the girls probably aren't either - they're putting their whole heart into this for probably no money at all. I wish they were with a better company.

    The members are unique and talented people, and there are also starlists who coordinate to suit each person, and I think the songs are wonderful. After all, I think that the lack of motivation of the office and poor promotion are the reasons why it does not work.
    Even if you keep moving after your debut, the life of an idol is short. I think the offices that can't make the most of their talents are doing something wrong.
    I've managed to get an album that's out of print now, and I'm working hard to make money for them.

Especially with a B-side bop like Yolowa, their discography is a whole gem.

      It is the same with their tech company and home renovation contractor company from my experience working with them for several months. Their tech company usually start small watermark based budget and start up a company then make a deal with China factory to make cheap products, but they will exaggerate their products to attract those gullible investors usually some retirees or rich but clueless son to invest on their "surely profitable products" and then run away with the cash. For renovation contractor company is common to encounter scam which is shockingly 70% of the time, they usually demand 50% deposit before they even have yet to start hacking and drilling your new home and then ran off with your desposit closed the company and open new one somewhere else with new company name. Kpop companies are no different small or big, they are sketchy to the extend. SM ent had try to dodge taxes many times during their operation and their scandals on that is nothing new already. Small kpop companies are hard to track because they have little to none of track records and no-one cares. The government also are not that firm to put laws and controls onto these shady practices by company which exploiting child labor, locking them into contract, debt, etc... Seem like actors company is more legit than kpop company because their contract were review by the flim association most of the time

    If you take nothing else away from this video, realize that fan support is not enough to keep groups going. If they have a bad company that can't promote them (or refuses to, in the case of GWSN), they're going to fail. It drives me crazy when people say groups don't last cause they don't have enough fans or that they weren't talented enough (which... you know what, let me keep that thought to myself) when the reality is the company isn't putting any money into them. You can have the best everything, but if your company isn't promoting you, it doesn't fucking matter.
    For example, LABOUM's Journey to Atlantis went viral a few months after Rollin' did (which I was v excited about because a) Journey to Atlantis is a fun song and b) LABOUM is a group I've been rooting for since forever), but their company did absolutely nothing to take advantage. And, as a result, the shit went nowhere.
    It's not enough to have a big fan base; you have to have a company worth a damn.

From companies mistreating and letting down their groups because they did not put in the effort to promote them the way they deserve to be... I got into Gwsn when I got an ad for Bazooka and I was hooked then they disappeared for a while and when Like It Hot came out, I expected the song to do much better then it did, I was waiting to see it on studio choom and several shows that they did not get to go on and I honestly hate when this happens. These women work hard they are talented and so sweet I want them to have the recognition they deserve, I'm really fed up with the mistreatment of idols I wish we could do more but asking questions and trending their names really do help, I'm really glad I came across this video.

    Thank you for having made this video. I’m just typing from Japan. I appreciate your hard work. There is a big movement of trying to be back GWSN on a stage on twitter in Japan though it absolutely doesn’t work. As you know, The wave music, GWSN belongs to a management company, have not issued any proclamations after the come back with Like it hot in May 2021. Official twitter is barely still posted but they are posted their selfies only once a week on average. Save GWSN🌳Keep watching🌳
    I hope I can see them on a stage again.
    Here again, thank you for having made this video🤞

    just finished watching the video and it is so well made, thank you so much !!
    there's something i want say regarding han jungsu and this is no hate to billlie, but i think it really is low of him to practically copy and paste the lore he worked so hard on for gwsn for billlie with barely any changes. it disables gwsn from even continuing down that road, yes he made it but just sucks that things that were synonymous for gwsn like their interesting and long song titles are no longer for them. also in their albums there were things connected to lore etc but it was all gone in the other side of the moon. I just hope people stop comparing the two groups now they know this history since its very bittersweet haha

    Gwsn are one of my ults and I truly pains me to see the miss management of the girls, their music is genuinely some of the best of 4th gen. What I think is that they need to put effort into promoting gwsn on variety shows and channels like studio choom. Promoting them on interview channels, things like "showterview" ect. But who knows if those things will even happen because the company seem to not really care at all. They are all so young and have so much potential they deserve a real chance at what they have put so much work into.

    I knew there was a reason I felt Billlie was familiar. That actually kind of sucks because GWSN really did have a distinct image and some really good songs, unfortunately people tend to forget that that every industry has a business to it and that clearly was the change here. I really hope people don’t just amount this change to just “blame the new girl group” like it’s literally a business room situation. This is a common thing that happens in most music industry across the world, with that being said the company just didn’t try to fill that hole and are the only ones responsible for GWSN’s decent. Hopefully, they can find a way because they’ve shown they’re capable to grabbing attention.

Hope the company steps up or the girls can start other projects we can support them on.

I’ve been a groo for a year and it just makes me so sad to know that it’s not even because they lack fans or support, it’s because of their company. I’m trying to stay positive and not let it affect me but I really wish we could make a big impact so that the company AT LEAST becomes more open about the situation and communicate more with us. These girls are so passionate, they are literally like sunshine, they bring happiness in so many peoples lives, they deserve SO much better than that. The people who worked in the company and didn’t get payed also deserve much better. As groos, we’re trying our best to help with the little we can do, so thank you for contributing with this video that hopefully will reach many people!!!

    When companies file bankruptcy usual the company will either find a new company to take on their assets or the old business creates a new business or subsidiary to move assets over from latter so they don’t get confused during the liquidation of the old company. Also you need a lot more money than what they raised even if it was just for their well being or to pay off debts from production and management of the girls.

    I think that especially when you’re a small company the fans should be the closest to you. I don’t get why so many artists and companies go completely MIA when they have problems instead of informing the fans maybe they can even help. Like just tell us what you need or what your problem is and we can find a solution. Every GWSN member is so talented and it’s quite rare seeing them getting involved in their own releases like that. We saw so many groups go down bc of the lack of infos and desperately waiting fans for updates but it never came. Why can’t at least one company do it right? 😭 maybe they can go busking again or upload more yt videos, I don’t want to see them not get what they deserve

I don't know why MNet opted out of it this year (probably because the ratings from the boys' RTK version weren't good?), but in order to cleanse their reputation and bring goodwill from viewers, it would have been smart for this reason.

    Because like, if it was actually as good as it seems, wouldn't every group use makestar and have multiple comebacks a year. Even nugu groups like S.I.S were able to get all the money they needed in one day. So why don't companies use it.
