∷ now the ‘97 Line and her are close and they’re in group chat with the other ‘97s from GFriend - they fit very well and share the same vibe

∷ whenever she hangs out with them, she finds out that she still has to get used to mostly being called “Unnie” as most of the fromis_9 members are younger than her

∷ Minnie and Hayoung have been doing Yoga together for quite some time now because Hayoung has a Yoga Instructor license

Debuting with 13 boys?

Seventeen AU: 14th member

Jangmi x Seventeen (mainly Coups)

Recap: When Jangmi officially gets asked to debut with Seventeen feat. a very annoying Pledis CEO

Words: 1.2k

Requests are OPEN: Please please please send me what you want to see from Jangmi. I’m also open to feedback :)

Jangmi’s Masterlist

“Sorry sir, with all due respect, are you sure you don’t want be to be apart of the girlgroup debut team? You know the one with Nayoung Unnie and Sungyeon Unnie.”

The most awkward silence Jangmi had ever experience followed, causing her to once again open her mouth and start blabbering.

“Not that I don’t trust your vision… You’re a great CEO and I believe you know what you’re doing with each of your trainees. It’s just…uh… They’re a boy group. And I don’t mean there’s anything wrong with boy groups, I love One Direction. I spent the last few years wanting to marry Niall. It’s just… um… there’s a lot of them… won’t it be quite hard and weird if there’s one random girl there. Especially since their debut project has finished filming. Didn’t they promote themselves all over the country? Won’t everyone think I’m a last minute edition.”

She was met with blank stares on all the management teams faces, and a hint of annoyance from some random guy in the back.

“No. No. I don’t mean to say that you are including me in Seventeen because you need another member. I’m sure you have thought about this very carefully. No way am I mocking or judging you about this, it’s just-”

The manager in charge of all the female trainees motioned for her to be quiet.

“You’re quite an energetic one aren’t you.” The CEO chuckled to himself. His other employees agreeing behind him.

“I’m sorry sir. I didn’t mean to talk that much. I-”

“How about you let me finish explaining what’s going to happen.”

Jangmi nodded, tightening her lips together.

The CEO signed. “I’m going to be honest with you. We need more buzz for Seventeen. They had their tv show and a few people recognise them, but ‘Shining Diamond,’ didn’t create any hype. We can’t afford to debut them unless we are certain that the public will give them attention.”

The vice CEO then began to speak. “The best way to get their attention is to do something outrages. Nothing too crazy to make them hate Seventeen, but enough to keep them wanting more. And our marketing team found that there’s barely any mixed member groups.”

“But usually these groups aren’t well received by the public, as by the time they’ve got the public attention they start dating each other and it becomes a whole mess. But I’m sure that won’t happen to you” The CEO quickly interjected, before signalling back to the Vice CEO to continue.

“That’s why we were thinking of adding you to the group. Stick around for the first few comebacks, until Seventeen make a name for themselves, then we can move you to the girlgroup, or you can go solo, or you could be an actress

Jangmi waited for a few seconds, before it was clear that the floor was hers.

“I understand that. And I’m very thankful for the opportunity. But I don’t think my parents would say yes. They wouldn’t be keen on me living with 13 boys. But they would be happy if I was in a girlgroup.” She replied, stressing the idea of her debuting with Pledis Girlz.

“Who said you’d be living with them?” The CEO interjected.

Her eyes went wide open. Had she been reading this entire situation wrong. “I’m so sorry, I thought I would have to stay with them. Isn’t that how the KPOP industry works.”

“You can stay with me.” Hyelim Unnie replied, from behind all the staff. Jangmi was so nervous when Kyla told her their CEO was wanting to meet with her, that she didn’t even notice her dance instructor in the room.

“Think of it as after hours dance classes. You need to be up to par with the rest of the dance line” She continued, with a wink.

“Dance line!” Jangmi yelled, before quickly realizing how loud she had been. She quickly stood up and bowed down to the CEO.

The CEO started speaking again. “The rap line in Seventeen is, how can I put this, very masculine and it’d be quite strange having a little girl there with all these tall boys. The performance team is a lot more versatile, and they have wide range of dancing styles between them. Having you there will allow you to do partner dances as well. Plus the current maknae Chan is there, so your short height won’t be too noticeable.”

The vice CEO swiftly stood up from his chair, and walked over to Jangmi. “I know this is very different and very new. But wasn’t your goal when you left Australia to become a performer. You’re getting an opportunity to make it happen.”

“Plus, if you don’t accept this, there won’t be many other chances. There are barely any halfies in this industry, especially ethnic ones. We’re quite progressive but not everyone is.”

Rolling her eyes inside her head, Jangmi knew what the CEO was saying was true. Even if he worded it very poorly. She understood from the very beginning that she’d have to work 10x harder than every other trainee, since she wasn’t the stereotypical idol. And throwing this opportunity away would do more damage than good.

She stood up once again, putting her right hand out for the vice CEO to shake. She liked him more than their CEO anyway, especially after that last comment. “If you think this is what’s best for me, I’m-“

The door to the office slowly opened, causing Jangmi to stop talking midsentence.

“Ahh Seungcheol! Or should I say S.Coups” Of course their CEO was nicer to boys than girls, Jangmi thought. Sexist asshole. “Just the person I was going to find. Jangmi said yes to joining Seventeen.”

Jangmi’s eyes widen. She hadn’t accepted anything yet. How dare he assume she would join-

“Hello! I’m glad you’re going to be joining us. I’m Seventeen’s general leader Seungcheol, but my stage name is S.Coups,” greeted the boy, shaking Jangmi’s hand which she then realised that she had yet to put down.

“I’m Rydel, but you can call me by my Korean name Jisoo since it’s easier to pronounce.” She wiped her hands on her skirt. Seungcheols’ hands were quite sweaty. She guessed he had come from rehearsals, the sweat dripping down his forehead being a big giveaway.

“She’ll be going as Jangmi, so make sure you call her that. None of this Jisoo nonsense.” Their CEO chirped in, Jisoo Jangmi held back the urge to roll her eyes. Instead, she turned and faced the CEO and bowed again in apology.

Sensing her discomfort, Seungcheol patted her back and smiled. “It’s a pretty name. Plus we can bully Shua since his Korean name is also Jisoo.”

The vice CEO came and placed his hands on both their shoulders, pushing them closer together. “Why don’t you go introduce Jangmi to the others. We’ll get everything else sorted, as well as telling your parents.” The last part of his sentence directed at the Jangmi.

With his arms around their shoulders, he quickly pushed them out of the room. “Don’t scare her away.” He yelled.

Jangmi smiled at Seungcheol, who she then realised had already started walking back to where Jangmi presumed the rest of her new group would be. She quickly speed walked to catch up to him. She didn’t exactly know what was going to happen, but she had a good feeling in the pit of her stomach.

Next: First Official Meeting

PRISTIN edit (10/10): 🌊Yuha🌊 [COOL]

[yuhaholic]

“Everyone, I'm not quite sure what to say

Maybe it's because I only want you to hear good news and good words

but writing a message like this just makes me upset

From PLEDIS Girlz to PRISTIN's Rena, I was really happy to be able to share many memories with many people.

I may not be continuing this path with Pledis

but as Kang Yaebin, and as everyone's pride, I will work hard to stand in front of everyone firmly

So please don't hurt too much.

I will do everything, so it would be nice if you could only think good thoughts and wait for me

I really love you.”

“Of course, life has its ups and downs

but I promise to you, that we can overcome this.

Everyone and I, we can overcome this.

I don't know when, or how

but it's like that. Things will get better soon.

And I promise it to you. This is my oath.”

kpop memory

The rules are simple; pick a handful of your most favorite K-Pop groups and write a memory you attach to them. Then tag some other people to do it. Enjoy!

I was tagged by the angel @n4yeons (ily, thank you!!!) 

BTOB: okay tbh this isn’t a specific memory but btob helped me get through a lot, i used to cry whenever i listened to it’s okay because their vocals actually touched me so much and that song is so good? the lyrics meant a lot to me (especially when the song first came out cuz that’s when i was going through a lot mental health wise and just hearing “i believe in you” was like DAMN)

CLC: i remember i found clc when their debut teasers started coming out because of btob and somehow i fell so in love with them that they ended my existence as a boy group stan and i have been a girl group stan ever since??? i don’t have any specific memory that comes to mind but whenever i think of them i remember how after they debuted i got so much happier like overall as a person

Dreamcatcher: honestly this isn’t a specific thing but whenever i think of dreamcatcher i think about how i need a new song from them like every day?? in the summer literally the day after fly high came out i asked my friend when their next comeback was gonna be... i’m messy

I.O.I: (does this count? I still support all the girls in their respective groups) i remember i was streaming the finale of produce 101 and tbh i had given up on yeonjung getting into the group but then they said yeonjung was 11th and i literally cried so hard like i was sobbing because that was my #1 girl making it into the group despite getting so much hate and she made it in because of her talent and then she ended up being an angel so what do you know? justice wins in the end

Pristin: OKAY so i very specifically remember the day that they announced kyla was part of pledis girlz (and somehow i got the url kylamassie .... literally how) i think pristin is another group where there aren’t many specific things for... like i can remember a lot of things but most of all i just love them? 

Twice: i have so many memories about twice but i think one of the biggest things that they will always remind me of is how they brought me and my best friend closer together! we watched sixteen together and tbh we were already close but i just will always have fond memories of twice helping bring us closer. also i was so mad when momo got eliminated but the gods smiled upon us all and she was added back xo

WJSN: secret came out while i was in an airport on my way to school (i go to school pretty far from home) and even tho i have a limited data plan i remember refreshing youtube until they posted it and i just sat in an airport and felt my life change as i listened to what is still one of my top 5 girl group songs of all time, thank you wjsn

okay sorry y’all these are a mess! but i tag: @hani-x @princesselkie @day69 @k0ntz and @yeonjwng ! and anyone else that wants to!! (if i tagged u no pressure also, u can just ignore this if u want!)

[wonwoosthetic]

i genuinely love predebut seventeen especially that video where they were with pledis girls and the girls introduced themselves ! Was minnie ever friends with anyone of the girls?

I feel so bad for never including them but they disbanded before I really got to know them. So sorry, I will include them on a separate list with like former idols of Pledis/HYBE :)

And I will get more into Minnie’s predebut years once I start writing her into 17TV and such, but for now:

Minnie was never one to approach people first and didn’t understand why people born in the same year were supposed to be so much closer with each other, so that never mattered much to her.

Rena, Sungyeon, and Minnie got closer because they could speak the language that Minnie was most comfortable in. The fact that all three of them LOVED writing, made it really easy for them to find things to talk about. She would never admit it but at times, she was definitely slightly jealous of the girls being on their own and being a proper girl group and being able to do girl things. Minnie was very happy with Seventeen of course, but anyone would get a bit jealous watching the Pledis Girlz have fun and be close, you know? S.Coups tried to push her to become friends with them since they were the only other girls in the company, but since she could sort of tell that they had formed a tight bond, she didn’t want to be the odd one out and just start hanging out with them. Sometimes she curses herself for not having gone out of her shell during her younger years.

She doesn’t get to see Rena as much anymore as she signed with a new label, but she still sees Sungyeon. It’s been a while since they’ve hung out but they’d definitely do it again and reminisce about old times.

Minnie never got too close with the ‘97 Liners but wouldn’t be opposed to meeting up with them, they just wouldn’t call each other “friends”. Back then their height also intimated Minnie slightly as she used to be smaller.

During the time both groups were active, she of course got to know all of them better, but she stayed closest with Sungyeon and Rena.

PRE-DEBUT: PD101 and PLEDIS GIRLZ

Nayoung, Minkyung, Kyungwon, Kyulkyung, Eunwoo, Yebin, and Siyeon auditioned for PD101 S1. Nayoung and Kyulkyung made it into the final group, IOI. The members who competed did not yet use their stage names.

Under the name PLEDIS GIRLZ, the ten members now in PRISTIN, made an unofficial debut in order for Sungyeon (then, Shannon) to appear on JTBC’s Girl Spirit! Here is one of her performances! They also released the track WE, initially under the name PLEDIS GIRLZ.Eunwoo was also featured on the track Sickness with SEVENTEEN's 

Each member had individual cover videos, which can be found on the pledisartist YouTube channel. 

Both before and after their official name reveal, they released a debut cover project. All videos can be found on the pledisartist YouTube Channel as well!

PLEDIS GIRLZ had several concerts prior to debut. Videos of their concerts can be found in this lovely playlist I found on YouTube!This playlist also includes their predebut individual covers as well as post-debut videos!

The BYE & HI concert was their final pre-PRISTIN concert, and the day which they revealed their name! You can watch this here.

V APP, HICAM (HI&HIGH), and CHANNEL:P

V APP is honestly one of the best ways to get to know any k-pop group! I suggest watching PRISTIN’s V APPs, both as PLEDIS GIRLZ and PRISTIN. They’re cute and fun! Here’s their channel.

2. HICAMs are little behind the scenes clips of the girls, both as PLEDIS GIRLZ and as PRISTIN! Here is a playlist of them.I love HICAM’s, and I think they’re a great way to get to know the girls a little better!

CHANNEL:P is the successor to HICAMs! They can be found on PRISTIN’s YouTube channel. They do not yet have a playlist as they are on-going!

DEBUT: WEE WOO ERA and beyond!

PRISTIN debuted with the mini album, Hi! Pristin. The title track was WEE WOO, and the performed B-side track on music shows was Black Widow! The full tracklist is:    1) Be the Star   2) WEE WOO   3) Black Widow   4) Running   5) Over n Over   6) WEWEE WOO: MV Black Widow: dance practiceHi!

Nu’est and P101: the Quick Rundown

Hm. I had an ask in my inbox about Nu’est and Produce 101, but it seems to have disappeared? 

I’m trying to remember what it said because I wanted to answer it and take some time doing so. They asked me what the deal was with Produce 101 and why people were upset that Nu’est was going to be on it. 

OK, so. Produce 101 was the same mnet program that gave us I.O.I. last year, and was riddled with some controversy. Many of the Pledis Girlz participated in the show, and it helped build their popularity and some hype for Pristin’s upcoming Debut. It was marketed as a show for trainees (and a handful of already debuted members) to come together and get some XP, through a voting/popularity system, in which members who make it through elimination have the opportunity to debut with a group. Kindof a fun concept, except for two things: 

1.) It’s a TV show, and in order to boost viewership they tend to create drama or cut and paste clips to paint people in an unfairly bad light. Like our reality tv.  2.) One of the producers (whom I believe was let go) was a fucking creep and likened the show to healthy porn for male viewership.  

“ He continued, "I'm not sure how to say this, but the reason why I first created the female version is because I wanted to make healthy pornography for guys. Even though the contestants just seem like a younger sister or niece, aren't they adorable? I wanted to create a type of porn that gives you that feeling, and the male version will also serve as that type of porn for female viewers. I once heard that Rain's performance was like porn for girls. The male version of 'Produce 101' aims to fill in that fantasy, and if it's entertaining enough then male viewers will watch it too."  Source.

So...you might be able to see so far why LO/\E’s might take issue with our boys deciding to go on this show. (Whether or not they decided to or not is still being hotly debated. I tend to think they did make their own decision on this, but we can never know for sure.) Even though this person was let go, it still reeks of shady shit. As of right now, it seems so few companies are willing to send their male trainees, so instead we are seeing debuted artists being confirmed more frequently, such as A-tom from Top Dogg, an Ex member of Teen Top, Samuel from Seventeen Project, and various others. In a sense, it looks to be building up to be an absolute dramatic shitshow, but I pray that it won’t be. Though I am not Pledis E’s number one fan, they DO NOT view their artists as a ‘healthy porn’ product. They’re far more of a (dysfunctional) family for that. Additionally, while produce 101 was focused but not limited to trainees only, they had enough trouble with trainees the first season that they opened wide the doors to any artist that wanted to participate. In other words, it is NOT intended to be a Rookie show for Trainees only this Season. Established artists are participating, which is going to make competition that much more difficult. Some LOVEs feel it’s a slap in the face; that our boys shouldn’t have to do shows like this if they had been properly promoted. They’re not wrong, either. However, you can only do the same thing so many times and expect a different result. They had two Korean comebacks last year and it did fuck-all to establish a solid K-fanbase, and they NEED one if they’re going to win. Erego, we are stuck with alternative means of promotion. 

As to what this means for NU’EST, it will halt all of their promotional activities (as a group anyway. Possibly we’ll get some solo work but I doubt it) which has let a lot of fans down in a sense, because we were convinced they were preparing for a comeback. Their fifth anniversary is approaching in March, and it seems they will not be able to do anything special for it this year. (That doesn’t mean WE can’t, btw, in fact there are many fanprojects in motion). If the member or members participating in P101 season 2 make it through then that will be an even longer time in which they will not be able to promote as OT5. We can endure that, though, because as LO/\E we’ve endured longer hiatuses without any explanation or hope for a comeback. However, we have been PROMISED that Nu’est will return when it’s over, and their Japanese website was renovated as of yesterday. They are *NOT* disbanding. I’ll say it again for the panicked LO/\E in the back who aren’t paying attention to the industry: NU’EST ARE NOT DISBANDING. They love the group far too much for that. 

So, what can we do? Support the everloving fuck out of them. Vote for them. Leave them comments on sns. Create content. Make fan blogs. Hashtag campaigns on Twitter. They won’t be able to update their own sns while they are on the show, but they CAN read their messages. None of them are going to disobey the rules, so while we will miss their online presence, we must continue to support them. We will need to vote for them on P101 when it airs, so when that happens I will provide info for you, alongside many other LOVES who are following this debacle. They are doing this because they want to improve for us, and to try and rebuild their lost Korean fanbase. It’s risky, but it is publicity if they do it well. 

@loves-diary has written a post that includes some support phrases you can send the boys in Hangul ---> HERE <---- so check it out. In fact, if you aren’t following @loves-diary and you want to stay informed, you should do that. She has excellent advice for dealing with the fandom right now, and she’s absolutely right that the conspiracy theories need to stop. The boys will be fine, but we MUST support them. 

I hope that answers some questions? But feel free to ask more.

If you're a Carat and you don't like Pledis Girlz, it's okay. If you're a Pledis Girlz stan and you don’t like Seventeen, it's okay. What's never okay is to compare them and make one of them superior or inferior than the other.

It hurts me that some Carats and Pledis Girlz stans make it a big deal when others say that Pledis Girlz are the female counterpart of Seventeen; as if the idea is so wrong and violating. But seriously, some are just unnecessarily making it a major concern. It's not like the girls are going to be SVT's copycats or using SVT's popularity. They did not train so hard for many years just to live up to what you think, and I am pretty sure the girls can stand on their own.

Personally, I think that the reasons why some people (including me, I have to admit) refer to them as the female SVT are: 1.) They have many members, 2.) they compose and produce their own music, and 3.) and if I’m not mistaken, they are also deeply involved in the choreography of their songs. So we can’t really avoid it when people say “Wow Pledis Girlz are like the female Seventeen.”

I know some will disagree with me, but tbh it's such an honor to be called as the female counterpart of Seventeen. If we are clueless about Seventeen's achievements, teamwork, respect for each other and for sunbaenims, work ethic, versatility, humility, and struggles, then let’s just be quiet. You may disagree with me, but it's really not necessary to compare and weigh them up. You can't compare night and day, apples and oranges—you get the picture. Lastly, they’re like a brother and sister group, because we all know they came from the same company. If you don’t like Seventeen or Pledis Girlz, it’s okay. Just don’t bring down the other and make it seem that they are in a competition.

P.S. If you don't like something, just take away its only power: Your attention.
