RE: megapost
They're worth it. One of the only girl/guy groups where I generally like all of them.
That's particularly note worthy because there are nine members, and at worst I'm neutral on certain members. Usually the range is positive → very positive.
Even at their peaks I never liked every member of: SNSD; Wonder Girls; 2NE1; Shinee; AOA; Exo; BTS; DBSK; 4Minute; Infinite; Nine Muses; etc. concurrently.
So far I like everyone in Blackpink but that doesn't count because they aren't that large of a group. Then again... I love Mamamoo, yet with only four members, I still don't
always like each of them at the same time.
Red Velvet was briefly on that "all member" list until they added Yeri.

Now THAT'S a megapost, like the good ol days.
Twice tempting me to change my avatar but it's not gonna work. I'm keeping Hyeyeon until Bestie comes back
Good luck waiting until ~2019 or something silly like that.
Seriously though, if they don't have a good comeback (no sloppy or rushed releases please) within the next 1-2 years or so I could see Uji/Yuji leaving the group - contract permitting.
IIRC, she was performing small venues before debuting with EXID 1.0 and she has the most direct line to a solo singing career.
Let's be honest though... they peaked when they did that helmet thing and since then they've been riding on the coattails of that concept and unfortunately haven't been doing well after.
Crayon Pop took over GAF as soon as the original version of "Bing Bing" was released. They heavily aped J-Pop but that was okay. "Saturday Night" and "Dancing Queen" so good. I like Twice so I'm not anti-popular groups, but somewhere around "Bar Bar Bar" is when things started to go wrong. They redeemed themselves years later with some of the more recent singles. Things just weren't the same.
Soyul's marriage pregnancy isn't a surprise. People tend to forget she's the young one and the others have always been older that people assumed they were. They're all approaching marriage age and/or the point in which most K-Pop acts start thinking about moving on to other ventures.
Not everyone can be BoA, Brown Eyed Girls and others who can continue making music for years. Groups like S.E.S, Shinhwa and Sechs Kies had pronounced periods of essentially being inactive so that archetype doesn't apply to artists such as Crayon Pop, Girl's Day Sojin and Nine Muses Moon Hyuna.
Agreed, it's 2016... our internets is fast enough to take a feist megapost like the old days. Bring it on feist! My 8-core AMD proc, 16GB RAM, Sammy SSD and Chrome is ready for more! Lol.
Heh. I'm posting this from and 8-core/16-thread Intel, which is sitting beside my 8-core/8-thread AMD. The AMD is going to be replaced by an 8-core/16-thread Zen:

Posted the vids, but forgot the pics (along with the hundreds of others I intentionally omitted from this event & performance).
