How are they still awkward on camera and with eachother😭

Sakura has been living with them for 5 months now and idk I feel like that’s a long time to be with someone and at least understand their presence or feel comfortable with them.

but on the live the girls still look so awkward with eachother as if they filmed that live the day after she got announced… I know it’s obviously the age difference but if they knew how introverted all the girls r why would they get someone younger than them to join the group like I’m guessing the girls can’t be their usual selfs cuz of her idk which is why they’re acting as if they just met her a day ago

also I’m rlly confused abt them still being awkward when it comes to doing lives in the studio infront of staff… it gets to a point where ppl can use the excuse “there’s staff there so thats why they’re quiet” like girl they’ve done 4 lives now and those 3 girls have been training and working with those staff the past year. they just don’t have that energy to do lives or idk maybe they need to be given more topics to talk abt

anyways just a rant cuz I’m surprised they’re still quiet when doing lives in the studio compared to when they’re at home like idols r doing lives infront of staff all the time they’re gonna have to get used to just being themselves and talkative cuz the staff have to be there it’s there job 😭

How the hell did pigson ignore Lauren's feedback??

Fifth harmony till this day is one of most influential girl groups ever and they were praised for the vocals not this kpop bullshit where 7 members in a famous group can barely sing live and they keep debuting people who shouldn't bc they care abt brainrot fast content to generate revenue and not actual talent but gaslight participants

u/Lapindahaha — 3 days ago

this group has no chemistry

even before it was announced that sakura would be the final member that one live the three girls did a month or two ago was literally the most awkward thing ever but not even in a way where they were just shy regarding being live but as in they literally seemed to have no idea how to make conversation with each other or talk to each other it was giving a group project at school with ppl you barely know 😭 i have no idea how sakura won because at least before the fourth member as well as just those three girls the performance aspect for the most part was consistent but sakura kinda just ruined the whole performance 😭 and what the hell is she gonna do being in a group with 20 year olds when she’s a teen, either she’s gonna be exploited to hell and back (which is kinda what they’re already doing since they love to debut literal children and the more likely option) or the other girls will be held back in terms of what they can showcase because they have to account for a minor in the group. watching them interact with her too is so awkward i feel like they definitely were hoping and/or assuming ayana would win but hell no
also is party before the party their song because it sucks

These are the top 10:

  1. Hamabe Minami
  2. Hirose Suzu
  3. Imada Mio
  4. Aragaki Yui
  5. Hashimoto Kanna
  6. Arimura Kasumi
  7. Yoshioka Riho
  8. Kitagawa Keiko

So Sakura was neglected as a child

This is insane, what the hell is wrong with her mom? this girl barely had education and now she's allowing her to move to the states at 16 to be exploited 🫠 learning english and trying to get better dancing and singing skills without a good foundation... My goodness I feel really bad for her

All these girls have vulnerable and easily manipulated profiles.

Actually, I’m starting to question why HYBE chose to create this group with these kinds of profiles. The more I think about it, the more I feel like several of the members seem to be in situations where they could easily be influenced, manipulated, or pushed into accepting a lot of things simply because they have so much to lose. This is not necessarily a direct accusation, but more of a concern about their emotional, financial, or family-related vulnerability.

For example, Lexie grew up with a single mother after her father left, apparently without paying child support. For her, this group could be a chance to change her life and help her mother financially.

Samara, on the other hand, comes from a more modest background, with parents who work constantly to feed their children. Here too, it’s easy to imagine that this group represents a huge opportunity for her and her family. When you know that your success could help your loved ones escape a difficult situation, you may feel forced to keep going, even if you are suffering or being mistreated.

As for Emily, her family may seem more financially stable, but in Dream Academy, we learned that her parents sent her to live in Los Angeles with a couple they did not really know at first, simply because that couple had “fallen in love with her talent” (weird btw). Personally, I find that worrying. Sending your child to live with adults who were basically strangers in a big city like LA, especially in the entertainment industry, may show a lack of protection or awareness of the risks.

And then there is Sakura. From what we know, she comes from a very rural environment and has not really been going to school since around the age of 8. That makes me wonder what options she would realistically have outside of this group. If her education level or access to normal schooling is limited, then joining this group may become what she sees as her only chance to have a career. But that is exactly what makes her extremely vulnerable, because she may feel like she has no other choice and her parents don’t protect her.

That is what bothers me the most: each of them seems to have a very strong reason to stay in the group, even if the conditions become bad. For some, it is money. For others, it is the pressure to help their family. For others, it may be a lack of parental protection, emotional neglect or the need to be recognized. I am not saying that HYBE necessarily chose these girls only because they are vulnerable, but I still find it troubling that several members have backgrounds that could make them very dependent on this opportunity. When someone feels like a project is their only chance to change their life, they may accept things they should not have to accept.

I sincerely hope the girls are well surrounded, protected and given proper psychological support. Because if they fall into the hands of people with bad intentions, or if the agency does not protect them properly, things could become dangerous very quickly. This group can change their lives, that is true, but exactly because their original lives may not be easier, they might stay even if they are mistreated.

She is really tall compared to the others. She is only 16, and she is going to keep growing.

They are all very short, and I think she’s still going to keep growing. She’s only 16, and she already has to bend over just to be at their height.

u/Ronron_bubble — 7 days ago

'' Y'all hating on a 16 year old ''

No we're not. We're still speaking up bc

The finalist was picked by pure favoritism

The finalist was not Fan favorite

Viewers and fans were disrespected disregarded to debut a minor

Hybe is gaslighting fans about some un existant start quality bullshit to debut someone the market didn't want ignoring the public like the public isn't the capital generating them money.

And no fans were not delusional were not buying the propaganda that ayana was less skilled than sakura son and Mitra can shut their mouths

Line distribution was unfair

Ayana had more lines and she literally carried the entire performance as sakura was breathing on the mic off beat not overdancing

I wanted to read Japanese comments and stumbled on a creepy ad about Sakura

For context World Scout is a collaboration with Abema which aired on Abema TV and this is an ad from Abema Times.

  • The ad title translates as "Adorable 15-year-old trainee spreads her legs 180 degrees. See more."
  • The full article title is "An adorable 15-year-old trainee struggles with a daring split move, spreading her legs 180 degrees… 'Why is your body so stiff?' the coach points out."
  • The video caption in the article is "Opening her legs 180 degrees... The 15-year-old trainee's leg split".

So Abema Times writing and paying to promote this specific article that focuses on Sakura as a 15 year old spreading her legs is weird. Its obviously clickbait but the intentions are still weird.

https://times.abema.tv/articles/-/10240580?page=1

But if like me you wanted to read some Japanese reactions you can use X or Yahoo. They're basically pretty aligned with the rest of the audience. Wanting to support Sakura but also acknowledge the problems of the program.
