Personally, I don't want them to debut any more DA girls in "global girl groups"
This is just my opinion and I'm wondering if anyone else feels similarly.
The more global girl groups HYBE tries to create using old DA members the more
forced the diversity aspect will feel (Ex. Ezrela telling Lara she knows only one of them can debut because they're both Indian). Like HYBE is picking and choosing certain ethnicities to make a "well rounded" & "diverse" group, and that just feels icky to me
cheapens the Katseye brand (people are already speculating Katseye is an experiment and Prelude is what HYBE is actually going to pour time and money into)
Prelude/Saint Satine is already getting lot of criticism calling them "katseye leftovers". They definitely do feel like Katseye leftovers because they're under the same label as Katseye and came from the same TV show as the Katseye members.
HYBE had a smash hit success with Katseye, I think they should just leave it at that and stop trying to generate duplicates because it feels so capitalist and forced. I love Marquise for example but I don't want her to debut in another HYBE global girl group, I'd rather she has a successful solo career - same for Ezrela or any other DA girl.
Does anyone else feel this way?
