The reason dark concept K-pop girl groups usually fail?
Although no one really gives a s*** about my opinions; I'm going to post this anyway. Could it be because the companies don't get behind the groups, like they did with Dreamcatcher? Which, from my understanding was a reasonably successful group. Is it possible that since happyface Entertainment probably had nothing to loose? Face it they were a company with an extremely talented group of girls, but were setting with their heads up their ass for over a year while the girls sat on the shelf. Until someone got the idea for Dreamcatcher. The company being probably desperate by then went with it. And as they say; the rest is history. Which I think will be studied and referenced by music (and perhaps business) historians many years from now. In my opinion; it was sheer genius by whoever got the idea and convinced the company to try it (and on the part of the girls to actually go for it). Now, back to the original thought. We currently have a boatload of Korean entertainment companies...
