- I know I have been gone for a long time, I am sorry about that. I hope this video is still entertaining, as many of you wanted an update to groups I have spoken about on my channel before. Watching the original videos is not a must but I do recommend it, specially for the groups where there isn't much to update on, like Purplebeck for example. Thank you all so much for watching! Feel free to comment any thoughts or opinions, along with any video topic suggestions!

-Somyi is active on TikTok and does live streams there. Still not sure why she just left IG
-Yebins song Yes I Know, technically isn’t her debut. But it was her solo project. Contrail was her actual solo debut
Also thank you so much for all the love you’ve been giving me ❤
the end of gwsns story is so disappointing. they had so much potential and were my second favorite group after loona. a no skip discography, tons of great members, and a unique sound. it’s a shame all that was squandered
I agree. One of the best over all. Songs, music videos, members 10/10
agree with this entire comment
Yup it really hurts my soul. Their music was so underrated
What's really sad about these companies is that they release good music.
i miss gwsn sm ☹️ i feel terrible for them. im so happy for miya though! it seems like she has a promising career ahead of her 🤞🏻
literally love that you don’t use that stupid AI voice like other kpop youtubers, just for that i’m subscribing
Thank you hahah. I can’t listen to the AI voices, myself. If people like that, sure. But I can’t stand it 🤣
Imagine just.... not being able to contact anyone from the company you supposedly work under. Absolutely wild.
Good to see you again. Take care!
Right ? That is just ridiculous!!
And thank you so much! You too
Still very upset about BVNDIT being mismanaged, bro
OMG you are finally back. Im so happy
You’re so sweet! Thank you
Honestly really nice to have this channel back on k-tube since you’re probably one of the people who does the most research and genuinely seems to care about all of the groups
For the TO1 / TOO situation it is such a huge tell of how much W1 messed up with them that people were cheering when Woongki left, felt bad for Seongmin taking that long eventhough it was obvious that the company really couldn’t care about him less and that fans were really excited for the members once they completely disbanded because it was obvious that they cared more about wrapping up Kep1er’s runtime (including contract negotiations at the time), wanted to focus on zb1 (aswell as the EVNNE members which will most likely for a group with Taerae after disbandment) so it’s nice that they’re out of that mistake of a company
Side-note: since it was usually mentioned in greater detail what the former members did after disbandment I thought it’d nice to mention that Woongki has participated in a bl drama (love for love’s sake) and also in the OST for it (he also does have a CZcams channel)
And a clear last “f u” from w1 towards Seongmin (Jerome):
- they did not confirm the way he wanted his name to be written (they wrote it as Sungmin instead of Seongmin, he talked about that in a live on insta)
- he was excluded of the WakeOnez promotion after the show - was not featured on the insta account with Hanbin and the 2JeongHyeon (as well as Jihoo after he joined) and not part of Wakeup: summer vacation, their fanmeet; I hope he was told that they don’t have any further plans for him once the international (Min, Haruto, Anthonny) trainees and Minseok left (which is another absolute dck move of the company but at least they are now in TOZ, NewBeat and Min is just doing social media dance classes and traveling whilst still hoping to debut one day)
That was a long rant…
Tldr: WakeOne sucks on an almost impressive level
Thank you very much. I do really care, that’s why I felt like I had to do an update for these people and groups cause they deserve love after all they have been through.
As for TO1. The situation is messed up in so many levels. They taught to keep them, took them from n.ch just to disband them ?
This is really unfortunate, but not surprising to hear about Seongmin. He's luckily getting the spotlight he deserves as a vocalist in Onepact! I'm cheering him on as an &Heart.
@@jihoonscaratexactly bruh but tbh would N.CH do them good either cuz cough cough nature was ruined by them only for the members to confirm their disbandment 😭
Yeah, n . CH doesn't even have the decency to be honest and admit Nature are disbanding... I'm so worried for n.SSign. They're doing well currently, but they might be f*cked over as time goes by... And, most importantly, WHERE IS HYUN?@@gwenmloveskpopandmore
@@gwenmloveskpopandmore There would have at least been one less stressfull thing to happen for them (the entire debate between the two companies about who "owns" the groups)
But at the same time Woongki and Seongmin might've profited through it since they got a lot of popularity through BP which the company propably helped them get on plus the other members might also get the opportunity to join a survival show or smth as long as they keep in contact with the company / staff from it who might recommend MNET to put them on the show
I’m so happy to hear Miya is going to have her solo debuet this year!
Same here! I’m very curious to see what she will release
mbk/pocketdol should honestly just stop it with idol groups because it's clear that they can't get anything right and are wasting their idols (who are mostly kids too!!) time and potential to become big stars, class:y and bae173's last comeback was in 2022 which was over a year ago already, then fantasy boys initially had a pretty successful debut run since they sold like 112k albums but their next album which was released 2 months later sold only 23k because they rush it out for winter cash grabs with barely any promotions.
Yeah and Fantasy Boys isn’t doing well either I hope that company will rot into garbage in a year or two
Classy just had a comeback lol it was for winter/Christmas
T-ara, see ya, the see ya,co-ed, 5dolls, speed, supernova ccm/mbk has failed every single group they touched….ESP T-Ara
@@scro910 exactly
Not Fantasy Boys 😢
About Girls Re:Verse- I didn't watch the show... BUT the virtual group Fe:Verse I recommend! Kwon Eunbi is my favourite soloist, so hearing her voice combined with Heejin (loona is one of my ults), two WJSN members and an Apink member is great! The song Cho has innocent christian horse girl vibes. Yes it's a virtual group, but the voices of the members are all done my idols, so it's a bit of a supergroup to me!
I am still sad about BANDIT
I think Vine entertainment should be on this list. The way they are promoting secret number is absolutely ridiculous.
That is very true.
to1 stans saying the only positive of their disbandment is never seeing chan again 😭 (for context the guy would culturally appropriate like it was his job and was never sorry. he also was shouting out tory lanez in a song he wrote)
In terms of Girls Re:Verse, I'm not joking when I say it's the best survival show I've ever seen - purely because it's so unserious. It's chaos and all the contestants have some really funny interactions since it didn't have the same stress placed on them as other shows. It's definitely worth a watch imo, even if you don't end up listening to the music that came out of it.
It sounds like a fun watch! I might have to check it out 👀
@@jihoonscarat Please do!! It is unhinged and its awesome to see idols be able to drop their walls under the guise of playing anonymous characters. I cried laughing too many times to count.
DIA didn't disband actually, they're on hiatus, the members said they will reunite again.
You're back, I'm glad
That’s my hope yea. It’s easier these days to have a comeback even if you’re under different labels so let’s hope and see
GWSN's story just breaks my heart. I loved their music and all the members, was following them since pre-debut. It was saddening to hear what they went through. Hope all of them will find their niche. Also, glad that u are back, thanks for your work ❤
As to Why I'm Worried reccomendations I would suggest Rocking Doll, 3YE, CSR and F.able.
Ohh thank you! I’ll definitely look into them!
omg ESPECIALLY CSR! I thought the future was looking so bright for them 😕 Hoping the participation of Duna, Geumhee, Seoyeon, and Yeham on Chuang Asia Thailand is able to bring them about a full-group comeback
F.Able disbanded and 3YE released a new song few months ago
@@gwenmloveskpopandmore wait, did F.ABLE really disband? I was unaware if that's the case...
@@nugudom_ng yeah unfortunately they unofficially disbanded
thank you so much for speaking about ALL of these groups but especially with gwsn since they're my ult group but also bc of how heartbreaking and well informed we are of what happened to them, you talking about this brings more insight into how kpop groups are actually being mistreated
everything about DIA's last couple of years together makes me so sad, they were the first group that I discovered from their debut and I fell in love instantly
As a clue I'm still so sad about what happened to Ciipher
Yeah but I’m happy Keita redebuted in EVNNE and Tag in OnePact
@@gwenmloveskpopandmore yes I’ve been following them but I miss them fr I will never forgive Rain
@@sliverhalo9286 same here I can never forgive him cuz this is his 3rd and technically 4th time
I used to be a huge fan of to1 and this is the first time I heard about their contract termination…. oh my god
Better late than never I just found out some groups smaller than them like Jwiiver disbanded in January
Weki Meki too. Fantagio didn’t promote them and make songs for them for two years until disbanded date.
All I'm hearing is that I need to be scared when it's time for the fifth episode of survival shows. 😂
With DIA, I doubt they'll reunite, at least not soon. The members are deep into solo activities. I think it'll take them 6+ years to return... Yeah, I'm pessimistic, considering some precedents...
I understand that. I’d assume something similar to IOI, and maybe a special release at their 10 year anniversary or something like that
I can really recommend Girl's Re:verse! The lineup and songs are great (though I wish everyone had lines in the signature song, like LABOUM's Haein had none) and the challenges in the episodes were ?? wild. Probably the funniest survival show I watched.
Also a side note which I think wasn't addressed in the video: Kim Doah's solo debut is still done under FENT / FANATICS' company. It has me rather worried bc that company did Not do enough about the ab*sive manager/higher-up.
Hi-L's situation is really just so sad
It really is. They have such potential, I feel bad for them and Halu’s like me, Im sure we all hoped this time around it would be different from NeonPunch and XUM
@@jihoonscarat yeah I really hoped it would’ve been different but can’t say I was surprised
Yeseul is re-debuting in a new group called LURA LUCY with Eungi (ex Hi Cutie) and a new girl named Jungyeon. I think Hi-L are definitely over
Thank you for coming back! You're one of my favourite channels, because you combine two of my favourite things, niche music acts and K-pop.
If you haven't checked out 'Peak Time', I hope you do. It has a ton of amazing nugu boy groups that didn't make top 6 (praying for a girl group version). Also, BAE173 (who has the same agency as DIA) was on it, and there's hints of mistreatment behind the scenes from POCKETDOL themselves. If you make a video about POCKETDOL, you would have stuff to work with.
Thank you so much! I appreciate it❤️ And I’ll definitely check it out !
This was a beautifully done video. I never even got into most of these groups, but your video makes me want to look into the members. SO HAPPY YOU'RE BACK!!! 😍
Thank you so much! I appreciate it a lot
The amount of research done in this video deserves my sub! Please continue doing videos we will all be waiting! ❤
Thank you. This took a long time, I didn’t realise it would be this long but I hope it was still a fun watch!
@@jihoonscarat It was don't worry!
You should see what happened with the group Topp Dogg, their company screwed them over SO hard.
Oh yes! I used to love them! I’ll definitely add them to my list
dia was my first ults and i miss them everyday 😭😭
Ok, so you're back. Literally I have beef with A100. They disbanded neonpunch due to covid issues, but managed to make a high quality for XUM soon after. Then they changed their name to Kpop Live when having Hi-L, and now they have a new pre-debut girl group ONAIR, and they changed their name to SW Entertainment. I feel like something shady goes on.
Slight correction, apparently there is no connection between SW and K-POP Live
@@jihoonscarat Isn't there???? I thought there is.
Wait so kpop wiki and the kpopping website are misinformed???@@jihoonscarat
JIHOON’S CARAT COMEBACK W AN HOUR LONG VIDEO THIS IS WHAT IVE NEEDED OMG so glad you’re back ❤️❤️

2:26 'Yes, I Know' was NOT Yebin's solo debut, just her solo project and she has released solo songs before. She officially debuted as a soloist last year with 'Contrail'
4:02 Their mv were never posted on PocketDol's channel. All of their mvs except for Hug U and Woowa were posted on MBK's old abandoned channel (changed to PocketDol Labels last year)
5:56 I think it's worth mentioning that Huihyeon is still active as a songwriter and wrote for many ballad artists
8:22 Somyi is now under Hotple Ent and start streaming on TikTok (she streams like everyday lol). She even covers a lot of DIA song and talk about the group on there
8:46 we don't thank Seunghee she is weird ass ho for sabotaging DIA and Eunjin basically hate DIA lol
LMAO THE LAST COMMENT I CANT
What's with Seunghee and Eunjin tho? Ive been living under a rock so apologies in advance
Thank you for the info! I wasn’t sure if I should call it her debut, as some places did and I don’t know if it did or did not count as a debut.
I’ll definitely add the info about Somyi in a pinned comment. Thank you for the information
As for the thanks, I thought it would be rude/weird to leave them out. I considered leaving the former members out but I didn’t know where I’d draw the line, somyi, Jenny and so on. I did talk about Eunjun in my original video. It’s definitely kinda odd and a awkward topic
Welcome back!! 💕🥳 may I suggest looking into the gg G-reyish? All I know is a member was on The Unit and part of a team that released a song called cherry on top.
So happy you're back. Perfect timing cause I have a project to work on
Thank you so much! I do the same, I always have something playing in the background hehe😉❤️
so glad to see youre back, love your videos!
Glad you like them!
What's wild to me was wasn't there a 2023 update that said purplebeck would have a comeback?
That does sound familiar yea. But at this point with companies like these I don’t usually believe the come back until I see proof Lmao
Yay you’re back! I hope you’re doing better! We love you ❤❤
I am doing better! Thank you so much🩷
I'm so excited for the video
i missed this account so much, so I'm glad you're back!! i hope you had a nice break.
omg so glad you're back! ❤️ wishing you the best sweetie
Thank you so much! Same to you🩵
OMG YOU'RE BACK
Thank you sooooooo much for this ktube essay comeback. One whole hour of amazing groups that deserved so much more. I'm seated with snacks here!
Thank you for tuning in! I hope you enjoy 🩷
@@jihoonscarat Served facts as per usual. I feel so frustrated for these (former) groups yet once again :(
a few more "fun fact" updates on bvndit as someone who ults them and still stays very up to date with them:
- aside from seungeun, jungwoo and simyeong too are attending university and jungwoo studied abroad in the us 2023 fall semester
- the video yeeyeon shared was from a trip they recently took together and they did a live and shared quite a few videos and photos from that trip
- jungwoo, simyeong and seungeun have all acted in musical theater productions since disbandment, seungeun actually several and the members always go to watch and support each other's projects
- they hang out with each other every now and then but especially songhee and simyeong hang out all the time, simyeong even said that songhee has a tootbrush at her place and "moved in" with her bc of how often she comes over
- unfortunately, it doesn't seem like they'll ever return as a group but they seem very happy doing musical theater and yeeyeon with her solo releases + their studies!
+just a little bonus but simyeong is like the biggest fan of wheein ever, she talked about her in so many behind the scenes videos and carried around her photocards, and recently she went to wheein's solo concert and got to meet her after the concert!!
I was so happy to see this in my feed. Your content is so soothing to me, like I rewatch it constantly in my tv lmao
Thank you so so much!
i was just going through your back catalog watching some of your Why I'm Worried About videos, good to see the queen return

Thank you so much! I appreciate it ❤️💪🏻
Hi Jihoon, I am glad you're back! :)) Could you possibly do a video on the now disbanded girl group Girlkind?
I’ll look into it👀
@@jihoonscarat all my bad unnies all my hood unnies, thank you 😔
I feel like everytime you had uploaded one of those videos, you unknowingly started a prophecy
Welcome back!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What's the song called that was played at the starting of dia's part I think I've heard it somewhere
It’s their song Hug U ☺️
Just recently subbed. Love the channel! 😊
Thank you! Welcome. I hope you enjoy my upcoming and past videos!
I loved venom from BVNDIT i got reccommended the song by chance on spotify and i got addicted im sad that they disbanded :C
Missed you so much Jihoons ❤
Congratulations on the comeback!! It’s been too long 🥺❤️🥳
Thank you! I appreciate you being here all this time! I hope the video is fun 🥹❤️
@@jihoonscarat ofc ❤ yes I loved it Sm it’s sad what happened to NIK (the group Lucente’s maknae Parkha debuted in only for them to disband after 2 years but I wish the best for him and the other ex members)
I looked into them for this video, and I absolutely loved their song Santa Monica. It’s been on repeat for days now
@@jihoonscarat that’s awesome!!yeah I remember when it came out it went viral as the song with “I will be a good father for my baby and our baby” 😂
@@jihoonscarat yeah it’s unfortunate cuz of Covid and financially they disbanded although their company wasn’t bad at all
The fact i look in my playlist an some how octpath an didn't know 😢😢😢
QUEEN JUST POSTED SLAY
about fanatics…
According to old posts Via spending all time in clubs (she even started relationships with canadian model ,but recently she deleted all posts.) it’s seems like she joined model agency?
rayeon also joined new agency btw
Probably comeback could be, but only including Rayeon, Doi, Chaelin, Chiayi and maybe Doah (Yoonhye stoped interacting with ot7 since 2022 )
this year is going to be 5-th Fanatics debut anniversary, so… maybe comeback in august 😭…?
Welcome back 🎊
Omg welcome back!
WELCOME BACK!
Welcome back!!!
OMG YOU'RE BACK YESSSS SLAYYY
I AM!! 🥳🥳
@@jihoonscaratthe way i binged your content while you're gone
@Chuu_Vault omg I appreciate it
I found a hi-l album in vienna for 10 euros i luckily got it in march last month. I was searching for sales literally i couldnt find anything
It is very hard to get your hands on their albums unfortunately
My favorite youtubers came back at the same time! Jihoonscarat and searchingforelris
doah is a perfect idol actually the nugu IT girl
Im Happy to see you back
Thank you so much!
Eunchae was the lead vocalist of DIA. No way that she sounded as bad as they portrayed on Universe Ticket
sbs didn’t want eunchae to debut. sbs had extreme favoritism towards many of the trainees especially towards the girls who were born in 2005 and after. they didn’t want any girls who were older than 19 years old and that’s why they wanted chaewon out bc she was popular. they made sure to keep her raw vocals and edit them badly on the episode version but yet they kept the autotune versions for many other trainees .. chaewon wasn’t even eliminated through votes, she was eliminated bc of the judges which made fans believe the pds was influencing on which girls would be eliminated or not.
I forgot u existed
Anyways, welcome back❤
lmao 🤣 Thank you 🩷
i loved Dia I discovered them during woowoo and was obsessed with woowa so so much
We need a new season of miss back or the unit (but done right)
Girls’ Reverse is 100% worth checking out. It’s so fun and just a nice low stakes survival show and extremely funny. Also seeing idols all interact with each other is always so fun. I will say it is a bit sad as I believe BVNDIT’s disbandment happened right in he middle of the show so both members talk about it a bit but it still 100% worth the watch it’s the most fun idol-related project I’ve ever watched for sure.
GWSN MY LOOOOVES
13:13 I watched all of Girls Re:verse, it was nuts 😂. A lot of the girls used the semi-anonymity in a way I’ve never seen on a survival show. I don’t know if I could watch it again knowing how many idols stopped promoting after what was clearly their last attempt at any place in the industry, I couldn’t make it through the last episode.
❤woongie also has social media and landed a role in a korea bl drama. I'm so proud of him and Jerome
I MISSED YOU 💝
For those interested in Sika's new group's song played at 18:31 the name is 陷阱 :) You should listen to the group, they have such good songs :D Their debut single was 出来嗨 and it's really refreshing compared to the actual kpop market
Thank you!!
please do a video on alice cri i fear the end is near. it's almost exactly a year since doa and yeonje went on "hiatus" and almost 10 months since their last comeback. the girls post on the group instagram often but as fans we're grasping at straws hoping that ot7 still exists let alone that there will be a comeback.
Hi! I will be talking about them in the second part of this video, as I have talked about them before. So there will be an update and I’ll cover the lack of updates on the two girls. Stay tuned
