i expect the bare minimum from pledis and still get let down. not letting them have a anniversary vlive after rena literally begged to have one is gross. not even informing fan sites or even normal fans of xiyeon’s graduation is disheartening. and not letting them have so much as instagram posts is disrespectful to those girls who spent years and years of their life to train only to be treated like dirt. i know it’s highly unlikely but i just want them to all jump ship to a company that will actually treat them right.
Admin Note: This was sent in before several Pristin members opened individual Instagram accounts.
as a carat, the pledis channel issue was equally dumb on both sides. for carats it was mostly just a matter of pride, selfishness, and misguided “concern”. on the other hand pledis stating they would stick to the decision and then taking back their word a month later were not great moves. they either should’ve reverted it immediately or just stuck to their word. it just makes them seem more unreliable and sets yet another precedent of always giving in to fans’ demands, which historically has proven to be potentially dangerous.
It really says something about how lazy pledis is at managing and how good their trainees are if in all three seasons of produce, their trainees managed to score quite well, with produce 48 still on its way. If pledis put more effort in managing and promoting their groups and soloist properly, I think they would have had a chance at becoming as big as the big three
What pisses me off the most about the fact that Pledis hasn’t given After School a comeback(even though it’s ALMOST BEEN FOUR WHOLE YEARS) is the amount of excuses people are making for Pledis. “Oh just wait awhile they need to focus on Seventeen and earn money from them.” Okay, we waited and waited, and waited. And then Pledis debuted Pristin. How the FUCK are you going to debut a whole new girl group when you’ve neglected one with a large fan base that’s been BEGGING FOR A COMEBACK FOR YEARS?? Now people are saying “Oh well now they have to focus on Pristin”. I’m not blaming the members of Pristin, I like their music and they’re extremely talented. I’m just upset because now Pledis has further shoved After School in the back corner. And people want to act like After School isn’t important or anything. Ok first of all Pledis wouldn’t be SHIT without After School, After School made Pledis hell they made Pledis a name for itself. Yes NU'EST has contributed I’m not denying that but After School is the group that pulled Pledis from rags to riches. They deserve a comeback because what I and the rest of the After School fanbase will NOT accept is Pledis disbanding After School after YEARS of no comeback. Uh uh no bueno they don’t want to mess with us like that👋🏽 After School is an amazing group who has blessed us with bangers and the QUEENS BETTER RETURN
In my opinion Pledis is the worst company, they treat their artists terribly, don’t pay them enough, they manage them badly and they refuse to give After School a comeback even though they really want one, NU’EST used to be my bias group but it just hurt too much to see all the bad things Pledis did to them
I've never hated anybody the way I hate Pledis' CEO.
I feel like NU’EST should have stuck with Judgement as their title track and right now they’d be on the rise again. Good Bye Bye is a good song but didn’t draw the attention they needed. Pledis messed up on that.
