Trio vs Quartet
So I've been thinking about this for a while now and my opinion keeps changing.
At first I wanted them to add another member, for the sake of choreography formations and promotions.
But then we got more content with the trio (the World Cup Vlog, Matcha Vlog, the recent pictures and the Sakmara live) and I really love the vibe between the current members and I started to question whether the new member would be able to add to that chemistry. So then I was quite content with the trio because I believe they complement each other really well.
But then I looked at the new SAINT SATINE X KATSEYE picture and remembered that Katseye currently has 2 members on hiatus and are going on tour soon. If a similar situation we're to occur with the trio then we would be left with a soloist performance on tour, who would have to perform songs that were meant to be performed by 3 members. It also lead me to question that should this situation occur, would Hybe X Geffen cancel the events or guilt trip the girls into performing regardless, even if they are unwell?
So now I'm torn because I really do love the trio, they fit each other so well, both visually and with their chemistry, however, if we're thinking long-term when they start touring and having 12 hour rehearsals, is a quartet the safer option?
What do you think?
