After entering 2021, the famous Korean performing arts company CUBE is once again facing more "embarrassing" real problems. Because the two major girl groups around the company, CLC and (G) I-DLE, have now caused two very different consequences. A few days ago, Zhuang Dingxin, a Chinese member of CLC, has publicly stated his withdrawal from the group on his personal social platform. Because the incident of female group members taking the initiative to withdraw from the group is not common in South Korea, this matter has also attracted the attention of Tmall fans.
From her personal behavior, it can also be said that the current status of the CLC in South Korea is indeed more embarrassing. Although in 2020, CUBE tried to get Zhang Ruien to participate in variety shows such as "GOOD GIRL" and gained some outside attention, CLC's recent release of a new single did not meet the company's expectations. In the end, Zhuang Dingxin also made the decision to withdraw from the combination under the premise of being desperate.
So is CLC abandoned? At present, CUBE has not yet officially given an answer. However, from Zhuang Dingxin's personal behavior, netizens can also understand that CUBE executives have lost confidence in Tmall. To be honest, with Zhuang Dingxin's current strength, if he can participate in the talent show after returning to China, it should not be a problem to get a debut opportunity. Therefore, under the premise that the CLC return activity does not have any signs, it is also reasonable for individuals to withdraw from the combination.
However, on the contrary, CUBE's other girl group (G) I-DLE has gradually begun to gain more and more fans' support in the local girl group market. According to the content of the comprehensive brand list of Korean women's groups in the latest December statistics, the comprehensive brand value of (G)I-DLE ranked fifth in the past month. Among all the girl groups, they only lag behind YG's BLACKPINK, ranking second in the overall.
If you consider that the December (G) I-DLE did not release a new album, then such a comprehensive ranking situation is definitely good news for CUBE. Because fans not only recognize the creative ability of (G) I-DLE, but also the public topic around (G) I-DLE has gradually increased. Cube then officially announced (G)I-DLE's new mini-4 series I Burn on December 31.
In addition to captain Jeon Joo-yeon and composer Pop Time tailor-made the new title song "Spark", the team's MINNIE also participated in two original songs. And China member Song Yuqi's "LOST" will also be included in this album. Therefore, since this album, the music of the girls has no longer relied solely on the captain Jeon Joo-yeon, but has adopted a new direction in which all the staff participate in the production.
If this line continues, then the (G)I-DLE is fully capable of becoming a "girl group version of BIGBANG" in the near future, isn't it? It depends on how CUBE can do a good job in marketing and promotion in this regard. What do you think?
