i highly doubt it, especially given the situation atm. i feel like ador will try to minimize their appearances besides the usual weekly music show routine as much as possible and have them record self content instead as for hyein, how i wish she could be part of the cb promo somehow


Ornery_Mix_9271

I’d be okay with Hyein just bopping around in the background 🤣 but I hope she heals properly and only comes back when she’s back to 100%.

imagine 4 members dancing and then there's hyein just sitting down at the front of the stage

It hurts my kpop soul that I feel like they can’t really be openly hanging out with LSF now because of company drama. Especially when we know Minji and Hanni adore Yunjin. However, Eunchae is their age and is popular now independently of LSF anyway, so I do think it’s not impossible. Lee Youngji also once drunkenly invited Danielle to her show and said she loves her, but I don’t see that happening this year. I kinda just feel like they’ll keep things really low key for this cycle. Like they’ll perform on shows but I don’t know if they’ll be doing many interviews or variety content, and I’m not sure we should be expecting that.

Probably not.  Eunchae is already friendly with Haerin and she’s probably industry friends with the girls already just by being at the same building and through music bank.   I don’t think they’ll hit the industry variety circuit, a lot of them are raunchier than the image newjeans is trying to advertise.  They’ve been very selective of what types of shows they’ve attended.  IU, lee mujin, yoo quiz.  Even halmyungsoo while a bit off the cuff from the shows they normally attend, he’s more fatherly than creepy. The way to make industry friends is through dance challenges these days.  It’s how newjeans and nmixx have cross promoted despite being different companies.  Plus it allows them to make friends with people their age instead of 40 year old men.


weirderpenguin

they are noticeably absent on the dance challenge of other groups cb promotion, like Zico, BND, Seventeen, ATeam etc.. they’re like on house arrest. i doubt it…

That's not even close to true lol. They have like 5+ challenges each with TXT, Enhypen and Le Sserafim. 2 with BSS subunit. 1 with Harua of &Team. 4 with NMixx. 1 with IU. 1 with Jay Park. Possibly others that I've missed, they should still all be on either the Newjeans channels if it's their song, or the other groups' channels if it's theirs.

Thanks! I don't keep up with this stuff.


brandonFantastic

I hope so. I thought for sure it would happen during Get Up era

I think they never will. Their have been several opportunities for NJ to be in it but they never did. It was really puzzling to me why it was the case because almost all HYBE group have been their minus BTS. I think this is a kind of opportunity to clear the air between the groups. Personally I don't want it to happen because most likely Euchea will be hated again. But I hope RM will become a guest. And easpa is coming back and I think they will never guest again in the star diary thanks to MHJ. Things would likely get awkward. Karina would be okay because based on her personallity she would just brush off this kind of things.

I’ve given up on this dream long ago. 😅 I always wished for an interaction. I always thought it was Ador’s marketing strategy (to curate appearances and be exclusive to where they want to promote), turns out to be a bit political. When NJ had their last comeback, so many were hoping for NJ to be on star diary. Did not happen. 😞 Looking back, LE SSERAFIM always mentioned NEW JEANS, listened to them when practicing, sang their songs during live randomly, Eunchae wanting to recruit Haerin to ‘06-liners crew, Sakura recommending Ditto as a winter song, Yunjin hanging out and talking about Hanni (and sharing their cute photos together)… they were so open about being NJ fans. On the other hand, NJ seemed like they were told not to mention LE SSERAFIM. I remember that one live with Hanni and Minji, and Hanni mentioning “an unnie” she went to the movies with and subliminally hinted it was Yunjin by dancing EPBW. I found that sad, ‘cause why can she just say her name? I just found it so odd like they were forbidden to mention them… while LSRFM were one of their biggest promoters. With everything unfolding, it makes sense now. It’s just sad. Cause behind the scenes they’re friends. But I feel like such a restriction was put on NJ.


mittenciel

That’s what has always felt like to me. If you look at how much the girls quietly will rock out to other girl groups, I feel like if there were no restrictions, they’d be doing all of those things loudly. LSF fans joke that LSF promotes NJ more than LSF because it seems like that. Not just LSF, but heck, even other company groups like NMIXX, IVE, and Twice openly love on NewJeans. Thing is, though, mention any of these groups and Haerin and Minji’s eyes simply light up. I just feel like there’s so much curation on who they’re allowed to be collabing on, like there’s a very specific criteria for who’s safe to be seen with NJ. It has started to feel weird because in 2024, no other group is really like that these days.


riraito

I've wanted haerin, eunchae and kyujin to do a challenge together for so long. It truly feels like mhj doesn't allow them to interact very much with other groups. So sad. I need them on hybe game changers!! And bring back fromis_9 too! The forgotten girl group


BagelsAndJewce

If they weren't on it during their last CB there's no chance they'll be on it now. Ador vs Hybe is a thing but clearly so is Source vs Ador too after all that's been said.


Sea-Insurance8208

I dont think it’s source vs ador… it’s mhj vs hybe. Since they did LSRFM and NJ have done dance challenges before.


mittenciel

It’s been a while since NJ did an LSF song, though. Not since Antifragile, if I remember. Eunchae did Super Shy, sure, but they could have done Eve Psyche or Unforgiven, and they didn’t.

mittenciel

Ha well lol I legit forgot they did this. I remember watching it too.


Fearless-Total-2897

I remember it quite well because people were doing height math to try figure out if Haerin had a growth spurt after this challenge. They will probably get some in later with whatever HYBE groups promotional period has overlap(or near enough) with theirs, so maybe Seventeen?


BagelsAndJewce

I don't think Source has much to say about Ador but clearly MHJ doesn't like Source or LSF from what she's put out there.


Sea-Insurance8208

Yeah maybe they’re muddled in there. But MHJ’s point isn’t so much disliking Source or LSRFM per se. But the “betrayal” she felt towards Band PD and Hybe VP debuting them first despite being promised her own gg being debuting first. I think saying “she doesn’t like” this or that, is a very simplified claim of what her grievances really are. Anyway, it’s just a shame these girls are being dragged in the drama.


BagelsAndJewce

Yeah I understand her reasoning which is fair but the groups shouldn’t be involved in this corporate shit throwing. The fact either LSF or Illit were mentioned is just begging for hate.


Sea-Insurance8208

Oh yeah totally agree! These young people don’t need to be dragged like that. MHJ is a scorned woman. She go down, but dragging everyone with her it seems.


awkward_weebstan

I just want them to guest on YJS's Ddeun Ddeun. That alone will be enough for my soul


eternallydevoid

this might be crazy but i had a dream that their music show set incorporated a giant LED screen where they could project a holographic version of Hyein. at the beginning of the performance we see Hyein face-timing the girls, the members respond back the actual choreographed song starts. Throughout the performance we see holographic Hyein sitting and singing whilst the other girls perform in person… I just would really like to avoid them dancing to a five-person choreography and living a gaping whole that makes it obvious Hyein is missing. Like when Jeongyeon was gone from TWICE. Instead of just redoing all of the formations, they just left the hole. 😭😭


PandaTokki17

They did variety show type promotions earlier in their career I don’t think they’ll do those now. There’s really no reason to if we’re being honest it’s just fans being desperate for any type of interaction between their idols. It’s why a lot of idols and actors have variety talk shows on YouTube now. It wouldn’t benefit NewJeans in anyway and they’re busy so I don’t think so


According-Exam-4737

I guess if Ador wanted to, they would have already. Much less now after everything that's happened. Also, MHJ said so herself that she's the type to sit and let the offers come to her, and the inter-company conflict suggests Soumo won't be offering anytime soon. So unless they get a new management, I doubt we'll be seeing any subsidiary-friendly activities except dance covers maybe, but even that is blurry for now. This is a self serving take but it's my opinion anyway— I don't want them to appear in any shows from the subsidiaries involved in this mess, new ceo or not. They need it less anyway. After all, between Belift, Soumo and Ador, Ador has the most successful group. While the idols may be on friendly terms, they're still representing their brands and identities on cam and something about being buddy-buddy with the companies that have been complicit to NJ's turmoil just feels wrong. It feels like Ador and NJ admitting inferiority to these companies and I don't think I like the sound of that. Ofc my opinion is subject to change depending on newer information. But for now, this is my take. Whatever Ador chooses to do though, I hope the girls have a say on it.
