      @TdotAntiordinary 4 месяца назад +27

      market shares. they are just products. they release a product if it doesnt sell or go viral as well as they expected, then off the shelf you go. but there is also a contact that still ties the group and the company tgt. so while the company already gave up on a certain groups, they still need to milk the remaining value out of them so they dont come out with a negative margin. hence they put out occasional mediocre releases just to maintain some relevance until the contract is over. and i feel that's exactly whats happening with LIGHTSUM and possibly fromis 9.

    LIGHTSUM is undergoing CLC treatment. LIGHTSUM from debut up to this date already showcased us different concepts at each comeback
    VANILLA - BRIGHTPOP and CUTE
    VICACE - FUTURE BASS POP and ELEGANT (Comparable to IZONE)
    ALIVE - TEEN CRUSH CONCEPT (Comparable to WINX CLUB)
    HONEY OR SPICE - HOUSE EDM CONCEPT (THEY FOUND THEIR SIGNATURE HERE)
    POSE! - DREAMLIKE and ALTERNATIVE POP (Comparable to NEWJEANS)
    Their signature sound has cutesy and ad lib screams at every song from prechorus to chorus
    But their songs are easy to listen and if you disregard the music video it sounds like there are at least 4 idols distinguishable by singing.
    Yet none of the comebacks screams noise marketing nor hype at the group. I love their B sides. I think their song POPCORN is their signature sound but every title tracks are different in concepts and drastic theme change. Basically their older sister group, CLC already done these concept changes on 3rd GEN but most of them have GIRL CRUSH concepts.
    They are under CUBE entertainment where GIDLE exist. So far, G-IDLE, CLC, and LIGHTSUM have different title tracks at each comeback at this label. We can see pattern on how girl groups are managed under this label.
    KNETS pointed out a detail that if you study the instrumentals only, you will never guess the song because it sounds like a song released by many groups and its easy to replicate compared to other of their songs who have good production.
    LIGHTSUM have their signature song HONEY OR SPICE, the bright music yet dark mesmerizing theme MV and their song match the members.
    Their momentum will get slow next year as much girl groups are debuting and might be overshadowed.

      So true. Cube scouts amazing talent and they’re also good at scooping up trainees that the big 3 to let go. I assume Cube has some appealing aspects that help them recruit. For example, compared to other large companies, they seem less likely to require plastic surgery, they allow for creative freedom, and they seem to want idols with lots of personality. Of course, that doesn’t outweigh the bad-they have strict dieting, bad dorm conditions, all the awful stuff you’d expect. And once their groups debut, they prioritize quick money over long-lasting, happy fanbases. And if the group isn’t writing, producing, and pitching everything themselves, there’s virtually nothing they can do to get regular comebacks. Let’s just say, Nowadays better start writing their own music ASAP.
      They should be a scouting agency and drop the music production altogether at this point 🙄

    CUBE is absolutely TRASH at promoting their artists. They will debut a group, then realize they got a popular big group under their company, forget about that newly debuted group and treat them like rubbish. Like whats the point?????? LIGHTSUM have so much potential, yet CUBE always finds ways to ruin that. Their comeback "Pose!", really needed a killer melody to make up for its shortcomings, but unfortunately, the hooks are just as flat and uninteresting as the instrumental. The chorus passes by without leaving a lasting impression, and even after multiple listens, nothing about the song really sticks. The girls deliver a solid performance, but there's nothing here that sets them apart from other groups. This specific K-pop sound feels like it's overdue to fade out, and honestly, the sooner, the better.

    OK somebody needs to say this out loud
    CUBE ENTERTAINMENT WORKS AS A RECORD LABEL. They are known for having "self-composing and self-producing" idols.
    So yeah, they won't lift a finger and make songs for the groups. Groups has to do it on their own.
    GIDLE got famous because Soyeon is a killer producer. The others are TRYING in their own way.
    You want CUBE to change their motto, the basis of their foundation and establishment just because the groups under them aren't "promoted" well?
    The way you're linking promotion strategies and comparing CUBE to HYBE is hilarious.
    CUBE houses groups that are into making their own music. After their contract ends, they're free to go. Same for Soyeon, who can choose to leave.
    Same happened with PENTAGON, BtoB, Beast, 4minute - these groups are known to lead their own game according to their strengths.
    Though I agree with some of your points, you need to research and deep dive more before declaring stuff off kpop reddit subs. This video sounds cheap and underdone.
