Okay my kpop hyperfixation is too much for even me 😂

So I picked out an old kpop "book" (it's more like a magazine) from the library and given the information in it I can narrow it down to having been written between a very specific 16 day window.

Okay, needed context is that the book already dates itself to being very third gen just from the groups on the front and the publication date is 2019. Given that Seungri was still talked about as a current member of Big Bang, it already put a hard limit on it had to be January-Febuary since he left because of Burning Sun in March.

However!!!! The Neo page is the part that dated it the hardest. They listed NCT as being 18 members, yet also name dropped WayV specifically. WayV got announced as a group December 31st, 2018 but they didn't debut until January 17th, 2019 hence the 18 instead of NCT's eventual 21 once they debuted. So it gives us a 16 day window that this book was written in.

I'm in this shit too deep lmao
