Pann: Why did Pristin disband though?
1. [+144, -14] The combination of the members was really bad. Pretty kids were too pretty and ugly kids were too ugly. The balance was totally off and the akgaes were just as bad.
2. [+144, -5] Honestly, I knew they'd disband. I knew it when Pledis kept promoting Fromis 9 and IZONE instead of a decent group like Pristin. Pledis doesn't do a good job on producing. It's either the idols succeed by self-producing like Seventeen or the idols have to work to keep their group barely relevant like NU'EST. Pristin's disbandment only shows how incompetent Pledis is. The solution is to leave Pledis...
3. [+117, -8] If the group was from a different company, they could've been popular without Produce 101.
4. [+56, -0] Incompetence of the agency + the worst akgaes + female idol who debuted less than a year ago being spotted at a club. The club pictures caused a roar in the fandom. On the next day, all of Pledis' family attended Nana's movie conference except Pristin.
5. [+50, -0] Weki Meki and Gugudan are still surviving, I never thought Pristin would disband first. Honestly, I haven't even heard of the first two groups' songs ㅋㅋㅋ
6. [+40, -4] They have to take care of Fromis 9 and IZONE. They have to provide staff for the breadwinners Seventeen and NU'EST. Seems like they don't have enough to spare for Pristin.
7. [+37, -0] They weren't a flop. They debuted not too long ago and it wasn't like they were pushed aside because of another group. During the two years, there was no full album and there was no news for a year after a subunit album. There must've been something going on internally. No one would know except the insiders of Pledis. Whatever that happened, Pledis is incompetent for not being able to resolve it during that time.
8. [+27, -2] I read that Pledis was busy taking care of their adopted daughters IZONE and Fromis 9 and ended up ignoring their original daughter Pristin.
9. [+26, -0] Pledis was about to go bankrupt in 2017 but NU'EST hit big and they started making profits in 2018. But they still couldn't promote because there was no money to promote. Because of the lack of money, Seventeen couldn't debut for 3 years. Because they didn't have money for years, they're still struggling and are taking subcontractors instead.
10. [+25, -0] The crappy agency aside, the fandom was such a mess, too. My bias is in the same agency so I was more interested in their issue. At the fansigns, when they do photo time, the fans don't take pictures of other members at all and only go to their bias. I think this was the bigger problem.
11. [+24, -0] Hul, when did Pristin disband? I'm really curious why...
12. [+22, -1] Did the members have a fight? They really had no reason to disband.
