the problem with generative ai in kpop is that anything which takes off the inhumane average idol workload would be a good thing but if that thing mows down half the rainforest, steals art, fools us, covertly influences, dumbs me down, and drastically speeds up the already scary comeback cycle (since you can pump out ai goop faster) so that idols end up working more anyway aka we are back to square one. which is we why gotta make even the most seductive ai content flop collectively for all it’s worth, and pressure companies to legally mark their products as such so we can avoid and flag and ignore it.
i mean imagine. even if it rests him i don’t want to see let’s say taemin copied to fake dance as “t-AI-min the carbon footprint criminal” in some elusive popup store wasting a gazillion gallons of water, and he doesn’t even get paid for lending his likeness. which is what it boils down to. the cash will skip the actual artists and go straight to the upper echelon. all training, fame, and skills in vain. i know it’s too late since companies use ai slop excessively at full force since it benefits only them and we consume it whether we want to or not but we can still refuse the obvious content. it just ruins fandoms, concert culture (!), the work of editors, fics (use stories as AI fodder? don’t complain if authors stop writing entirely! we strike until you act right), fair salaries, privacy, and our perception of artistic excellence.
in other words: in all possible lives i would choose yoongi rapping in person and not some “agust chatgpt” robo machine ffs the human eyes and ears are made to yearn for real voices and faces not animated bot idols 2.0
hiii can you please do a reading on source music upcoming girl group? we don’t have much information about them except that they are expected to debut 2025-2026! some questions you can ask are: how many members do you think they have ? what do you think they’re concept will be ? will they be successful? how will their relationship with lesserafim be?
mini pack: soumungg
debut preparations 3 of cups rx, the fool, the magician rx, 6 of cups rx, 7 of swords, ace of swords, the chariot rx
one of the "safe" girls in the lineup (allegedly) left the corporation last week and soumu replaced her with another, but they're not convinced that she'll fit in with the other girls, and that's why they're currently testing the waters. their original idea was for some of the girls from r u next?, who are allegedly still in the corporation, and some other unknown trainees, but unfortunately, most of the members from r u next? have already left and hybe is left with almost no familiar faces (and some of them will probably debut in pledisngg). their concept plan is stolen to say the least - a mix of wjsn, iz*one and somewhat i.o.i., and their sound once again resembles that of newjeans and illit. this decision is another marketing strategy by hybe, which once again worries me that it will not bring them anything good and unfortunately, they will not only target the blueprint, but also the first copy of this blueprint, therefore newjeans and illit will be the next, but consecutive victims, and soumungg is hybe's new protégé. at this stage, the plans are these, but sudden changes are possible by the end of their debut preparation.
possible timeframe of debut or announcement 10 ♣, 7 ♦, 3 ♦, jack ♣, 2 ♠ — until july 2026 (my bet's on june-july 26'). they seem pretty much ready, but aren't certain of 1 of the girls.
likely no. of members — acc. to my pendulum, 8.
possible concept 9 of swords rx, the world rx, 9 of pentacles, queen of swords rx, 10 of cups, 5 of swords rx, ace of pentacles rx
what i saw in their debut preparations, i see it staying - so stolen (similar to wjsn/iz*one/i.o.i.), aiming at korea (the world rx), with a typical sound for the 5th generation (similar to newjeans and illit). the reversed queen of swords seems to me that they will have weak vocalists, which is extremely typical for the generation itself, and through the 9 of pentacles i see "huh yunjin of the 5th generation", who will be a singer-songwriter (whose vocals may be angelic compared to many idols of the generation, but they will probably be decent). the ten of cups makes me raise an eyebrow, since the girls may be underage. i just can't understand why the reversed ace of pentacles is in the spread, but i guess it's because of their poor conceptual strategy.
possible ethnicities of the girls 6 of cups rx, the fool, 5 of wands rx, 6 of wands, ace of swords
most are korean, one of them might be wasian (with american citizenship, maybe), one japanese, and one from southeast asia, which according to my pendulum is vietnamese.
debut success page of wands, ace of swords, 8 of cups, justice rx, the high priestess, the tower
in two words, complete despair. in a few sentences, it's hard to feel how successful the debut will be. at least one of them will be involved in controversies at least in korea, which may not turn out to be true (i.e. le sserafim 2.0). their dynamics between them will actually be a complete failure behind the scenes, because the girls i see are very good actresses among themselves, but to my regret, it seems that they have confused the industry to try in, because hybe have successfully fooled themselves with their acting (i'm in shock about this, by the way). in reality, lowkey good sales amount, which may be up to about 300,000 in a week, but it may reach 500-600k in hanteo, which will be fake, fabricated and whatever else. with the tower, there may be a second le sserafim case (unfortunately, another garam), so soumu should be careful, because the karma that happened on belift along with mhj and newjeans is catching up with them. i doubt good rankings and even first victories, but i'll wait for everything to become clear and i'll ask again in the near future.
overall success king of cups, 10 of wands, 6 of pentacles, 5 of wands, knight of cups
another equally anticipated group will debut with them on the same day (as happened between baby don't cry and allday project) and both groups will fight for relevance and popularity, and this fight will remain for a long period in many things, the two groups in question can be compared a lot in absolutely everything and it is difficult to judge how successful soumungg will be precisely because of this comparison. if not (because with soumungg sudden changes are possible), the five of wands shows a scandalous group of the kind of criticism similar to what allday project receive in the long run (i.e. adp are actually tolerable) and soumu will rely on scandalous behavior. they will have fans to defend them, but not because of their potential, but because they "idolize" hybe, but also haters, which complicates things even more.
will they lead the 5th generation? ace of wands, 7 of swords, the high priestess rx, ace of swords — leaning towards no, but maybe they'll do similar to illit at the moment (good album sales, decent chart success, max. win-two on music shows)
dynamics w/ le sserafim 8 of cups, 7 of wands, queen of wands rx (chaewon...), 8 of swords rx, 9 of wands
disgusting. soumungg sincerely HATE chaewon, without exception. i've never seen such hatred and loathing (i should emphasize that it's not malice and/or envy... worse than the alleged hate from martin to newjeans that i saw weeks ago) towards someone in k-pop for the first time (i can compare it to kim yoojung's hatred towards song kang, because the energy here is so intense that it could be much worse than the relationship between kim yoojung and song kang). because of this, soumungg are not close to le sserafim and have no desire to get close to them. they have nothing against the other 4, but they hate chaewon will all of their heart and prefer not to deal with the rest of their sunbaes.

Hi can you please read enhypen jay and le sserafim huh yunjin connection? Thank you
allegedly for entertainment purposes
context of the connection (what’s between them):
knight of cups · the devil · five of swords
the knight of cups being here immediately tells me: this was never just a platonic thing. even if they were seen as “friends” publicly or casually, it was always layered with romantic tension. whether something ever happened or not, there was a romantic undertone baked into this connection from the start. the kind of vibe where even silence feels charged.
but the devil is not cute. it’s about attachment, obsession, temptation — all the things that tie two people together in unhealthy ways. it’s the need for someone that doesn’t feel good anymore. like you want them, but you also don’t even like them sometimes. and paired with the five of swords, this tells me they clash — maybe often. this is petty arguments, miscommunication, ego fights. so together, this trio says: this connection was always emotionally messy, maybe even a little toxic. attraction + tension + resentment. it’s giving “we don’t even like each other, but why can’t i stop thinking about you?”
jay’s current feelings toward yunjin:
six of wands · eight of swords · king of pentacles · eight of cups (rev) · nine of wands (rev)
jay’s side is complex. the six of wands and eight of swords together feel like being stuck in admiration. like… he still respects her. maybe not even for anything she’s done, but for who she is. the way she moves through the world. there’s pride there. fascination, even.
but the king of pentacles really struck me — because this feels like how he sees himself. like: “i’m a good man. i’m stable. i’m mature. i know my worth. i bring something real.” and i do think there’s a part of him that quietly wonders, why don’t you see that? why didn’t you choose me? not in a desperate way — more like a deeply rooted disappointment. jay may struggle with insecurity sometimes, especially visually, but this king of pentacles is all about his inner confidence. he knows he’s worth something. he’s just tired of feeling like she didn’t see it.
the eight of cups reversed and nine of wands reversed show he hasn’t fully let this go. not emotionally. he’s drained by it, but he still thinks about it — maybe even more than he wants to. he’s not chasing, but he hasn’t fully moved on either.
yunjin’s current feelings toward jay:
ace of pentacles (rev) · magician (rev) · eight of pentacles · four of wands · two of wands (rev)
yunjin’s side reads like: this could’ve been something… but i chose not to water it.
ace of pentacles reversed and magician reversed are missed potential, plain and simple. something that maybe looked promising, but either she didn’t put in the effort, or it just didn’t align with what she wanted to build. it feels like she had the tools — and the moment — but chose not to act. maybe it wasn’t personal. maybe she just wasn’t focused on that kind of connection.
eight of pentacles says her focus is on herself, her goals, her grind. she’s in her me era.
the four of wands tells me she might still feel some closeness to him — a recognition of what was (or could’ve been), but it’s more nostalgic than active. and the two of wands reversed? that sealed it. she’s not looking at him anymore. no future plans here. she’s made her choice, and it wasn’t him.
there’s definitely a tie between them, or there was. but it’s not soft. it’s complicated, emotionally charged, and probably not healthy. jay still thinks about her, still respects her, and might still be carrying the weight of what if. but he’s also trying to focus on his own stability and value. yunjin, on the other hand, seems to have made peace with not pursuing this. she’s not bitter — she’s just focused on her path.
whatever happened here, the energy still lingers — but it’s not being nurtured on both sides.
Hey!! Le Sserafim is collabing with J-hope on their new comeback song “Spaghetti.” Could you do a reading on if it will do well? What will be the reaction from the general public?
Heyy! Sure thing! Let’s get into it 😁
Jhope vs Le Serafim Collab🍝
I would like to remember that this reading was my interpretation about the cards I pulled and the energy I was able to catch from this artist. This is only for entertainment purposes.
Will it be a success?
main deck: the flowers, the snake, the ship
This collab has everything to be hit! Something about the concept or the style of this song will be the thing that will call the most attention! Yet, as many people there will be that will love it, many will also hate it! It could be related to the lyrics it self. Something that they will be singing about on the song that the people who won’t like it, may find it too much, too scandalous, too spicy.
Overall it will cause a stir in good way and on bad way too. But I guess that’s good for the artists because the money will definitely come lol.
