1. [+466, -52] The worst thing that could happen to this group is that Jun Somi debuts as a solo when they debut and hits daebak.....
2. [+341, -102] The one in the middle looks like Ra Miran ㅋ
3. [+338, -43] I wish Park Jin Young would stop adding Japanese members..
4. [+47, -14] Looks like JYP put all their aces in Twice and are debuting the leftovers now ㅋㅋ like how SM debuted TVXQ and then put all the leftovers in Super Junior.
5. [+45, -9] I really think Jun Somi did something to piss Park Jin Young off, especially with how JYP is debuting a new girl group not too long after she left.
6. [+39, -7] I think JYP made the right choice to exclude Jun Somi. The group would've been known as the Somi group right from debut and the other members wouldn't be able to shine.
7. [+36, -3] Honestly, JYP gives their rookie groups the best songs. There's no way this group isn't going to be popular.
8. [+29, -1] Seeing the members like this makes me realize that Jun Somi doesn't really match them after all. I saw these members dance on their survival show and they're definitely more on the girl crush, boyish side of styles compared to other female idols who are super feminine. Somi's a good dancer but only when it comes to choreography. These members are just naturally talented and can free style. I think JYP's new girl group will be dance focused.
9. [+27, -15] Not really feeling them. There's no visual that tells me they're a center. Somi's better...
10. [+24, -5] Hate all you want, there's no way that a JYP girl group isn't going to be famous. Jun Somi is going to regret this for the rest of her life. If only she hung on for a bit more.
11. [+23, -10] Not sure what JYP was thinking. None of these members have a fandom even big enough to compare to Jun Somi's sole fandom. I'm sure this group is basically miss A version 2.
12. [+22, -2] Wanna know why Park Jin Young adds a Japanese member every chance he gets? Because Japan has the #2 biggest music market in the world. He can't make it on the Billboard, might as well shoot for the Japanese market. Twice is doing well over there, and it's a good business decision. Idols are a business after all.
13. [+18, -5] I think these members are too weak to ever live up to Twice... never.
14. [+18, -5] I honestly think this new group is going to end up like miss A
15. [+18, -20] What is that in the middle?
