He did l'officiel in one day though? Also chanel ik you're def well-intentioned but tbh his Chinese schedules haven't been ones that would take up much time? Mistine, TT all were likely one day shoots as well, the only one that was a longgg commitment would be running man with Ricky that did end up clashing with a zb1 schedule. Mistine & TT were all shot much earlier too, within TT being even before the feel the pop comeback so frankly I just don't see the conflict with his chinese schedules being so large that he can't commit to any korean? Especially when there are other members who have weekly schedules to commit to but are able to attend other schedules in Korea if that makes sense. It's just a sad situation all around and I really feel for Hao and all the foreign idols that inevitably get kinda shafted in the industry they try to work in
Oh no I didn’t mean the shoot would take multiple days it’s just I thought he was only in China for like less than 24hrs for his fanmeet. Like he flew there the day before and then flew back after the fanmeet ? So I don’t see how they would schedule in a whole shoot on that same day. Also I do agree with the latter part, I said in a previous ask that the management could be better in managing his schedule and working out more domestic opportunities for him and it does feel that as a foreigner he will always have it harder to receive the same as his non-foreigner counterparts, just as all foreigners do 😭

Xhs tea anon hereee I'd take both the riwoong and zb1 member in drama posts with a grain of salt until there's any legit info coming out. Ppl were tweaking about MF being false but that came from somewhere different (douban) that had tea on a bunch of magazine covers all of which came true before Hao's did
Ohhhhh I see, well let’s just be mildly optimistic then 😭

https://neospring.org/+r/c33fbb86f7 What I don't understand is that they don't seem to promote duo/trio content people even ask for like kfans always talk about some duos having a lot of supply with no demand lol I don't actually see the point in trying to understand the logistics behind what Wakeone does , they're just generally incompetent and it seems like the vibes inside the company are really bad
Yeah that’s true they don’t really push popular duos the way I’d assume the would

https://neospring.org/+r/26c1423461 I have a feeling it's happening btw if u were to choose members in duo/unit for photoshoot how would you choose (maybe put a brand for it too you think would suit it)
Some duos I’d like too see in photoshoots(I’ll exclude units who already have photoshoots):
Riwook Geoniehanie Seomteolz Gunhao Gunrae Mattparkz 😁 Haobin Catnyangz Guyjin Heartz
I’m not too picky about brands with units because I feel like each member has different brands that would suit them so as long as it was a brand that could dress them in a way that works well together

https://neospring.org/+c/9699d46038 Anon I can sense already people might take it the wrong way but — …… https://neospring.org/+r/7a7aba322f For me i personally don't believe in favouritism; moreover, right now i think wk1 prefers solo schedules more than duos because for duos, wk1 prefers to push some more than others. beside wk1's negligence and not knowing how to promote zb1 properly, the main reasons is k-gp prefers gg and big-4 groups so the initial hype that zb1 has has lessened a lot because big-4 fifth gen groups like riize(who has massive gp support) groups like nmixx, kiof, qwef are getting really popular. also jiwoong's scandal had made zb1 lose casual gp support so they can't even go to university festival where last year they went to yonsei. all these things in some way are hindering zb1's jobs and maybe the main reasons is due to their really busy schedules that they don't have enough time to shoot for shows, like i don't think i will see hanbin in knowing brothers as long as he is mca mc since they only shoot on thursday, most popular shows also have a fixed shooting date
I see, I agree they do seem to prioritise solo stuff I’d say even duo stuff over group stuff. The management is really messy overall and from a business perspective it seems like they make decisions they think will work in their favour but are always a 50/50 😭

https://neospring.org/+r/2e262bd178 (okayy I learned linking 🎉) so yeah I went to xhs and there is indeed a rumor post abt it but it's from those acc you can't really trust, it may be true it also may not be we gotta wait (and lol scrolling thru it I found a post saying enha member and a zb1 member will be in a same drama)
I’m choosing to be optimistic and believe it because everyone was tweaking in my cc saying MF wasn’t true but IT WAS !

https://neospring.org/+r/568c60c35a during and after gsb promos, hao was not doing anything besides music shows, not even chinese schedules. his figaro shoot was probably filmed when he went to china during the tangle teezer fan meeting. his chn schedules are usually during no promo periods so it’s not like it clashes with any kr filming
Hmm iirc the fanmeet was in mid august and he was only there for a day doing the fan meet. I doubt they did a whole shoot that same day especially considering the hours it would take. He probably did the shoot in kr (imo) since he has only been back to China for the fan meet.

https://neospring.org/+r/b233ce36f0 I said they wanted Hao to promote and dive into C-Ent but people were calling me names for that as if I dont want Hao to stay in the K-Industry. Sometimes yall have to start thinking from a business standpoint and where Yuehua lies in all of that. They need another Wang Yibo, they tried with Ollie but its never going to work, Who do you think could fill Yibos shoes the best in China? Exactly. It shouldnt suprise anybody that Hao is getting more and more Chinese gigs. Just wait and see how many Chinese gigs we will get the moment their Disbandment gets near and nearer.
Yeah I did read about this in some other ccs, from a business perspective hao is an absolute gem to have and if he’s going to stay at his current company/ they have got him in a deal that’s going to make it hard for him to leave (should he want to) post zb1 i understand why they are building up his base and rep on the c side especially if (cmiiw) yuehuas has a lot of power in China over Korea. I know their current groups in kr haven’t done as well as people have expected, mainly do to poor management and at a point maybe they are even seeing the trend of that and feel he’d be better utilised primarily in the c market. Again this is all just from a business standpoint. However I have heard him many times express his desire to be doing this for a long time and he seems to really love being an idol so i hope that regardless of what others have planned for him he can continue thriving and work somewhere that makes him happy.
https://neospring.org/+c/9699d46038 Anon I can sense already people might take it the wrong way but I’m grown and open to having discussions about it. Obviously I’m not going to entertain abuse or hate and the whole things isn’t even me saying this is or isn’t why I’m just genuinely curious as to what people think the reasoning for the lack of schedules is🥺

There’s a rumour that Ricky and Jiwoong have a duo magazine coming out
Ohh really ? Do you know which magazine👀

(ok idk how to link 😭) honestly I get rosins blaming wk1 but it's not only wk1 but the the whole industry would prioritise korean idols first then the chinese idols obvsly, I'm not sure if this works for hao case but while stanning ningning too I saw a post abt someone who have worked in the industry (I don't remember exactly) have said how chinese idols got to choose between one, like example if they got three offers they only get to choose one
Without giving away everything 😭 it hits close to home. I can see that and like you said it’s not just the company it does seem to be a deep rooted industry problem where they will receive less offers simply for being Chinese. Ultimately in spaces where you are the minority you have to work just as hard to be seen as equal and I guess not just in kr it’s like that worldwide imo but it’s really horrible because then you have extremely competent people who aren’t valued as they should be.

https://neospring.org/+r/6cfd453ae3 the way wakeone is moving rn i can’t blame anon tho it’s been two months since his last kr sched it’s so sus that everything just stopped so abruptly
Hmm I do get it and I mean he did have that mc gig for mubank during gsb promo so I don’t think it’s the case of they don’t want him to have kr schedules at all, although I do agree they could be doing more in terms of him having more kr schedules. This might be a hot take and I don’t want this to get misconstrued, but I sometimes wonder if the increase in China schedules takes away time that could be free for him to have more kr schedules? Obviously they could do more anyway to work out stuff schedule wise to allow him to do more here too, but this is just something i thought about recently because i was booking in dates for work in my own diary and loads of clashes came up. I started thinking that if his China schedules are being prioritised in terms of what schedules he’s doing in his free periods is that something that’s impacting how many kr schedules he’s able to do. This isn’t me saying this is or isn’t a reason it’s just something I was wondering about and I’m actually curious to hear your guys opinions on this too!

https://neospring.org/+r/b233ce36f0 It's okay, anon. Take your time.
"I'm still sad that all of Hao's rumoured scheds are still with cn not kr" Wait, he has even more rumored cn schedules? Like new ones? But in any case, Chanel is right. Korean schedules aren't usually leaked unless they are brand events, movie premieres, or a variety show that has to filmed outside. IIRC there were no leaks about lee mujin, eunchae's star diary, the return of superman, or masked singer (in taerae's case), etc.
Exactly anon! For a lot of kr schedule we never hear anything about them unless it’s a public filming or an event people sell data for. But also please do spill on the more rumoured schedules 👀

do you think the reason zb1 as a full group have not been on a (korean) magazine in months (i dont even remember the last time tbh) is because of jiwoong’s scandal? cuz i remember we were getting a magazine cover almost every month and now they havent been in one in literally so long… we’re only getting duo, trio or solo magazine photoshoots now and jiwoong is never one of them lol
I wouldn’t pin it down to just that tbh, even pre scandal the amount of group shoots they were doing dropped a lot. I mean they did have and uptake in group endorsements but yeah even for me the lack fo group shoots doesn’t make much sense.

Hi! I'm the c-ent anon! Sorry for not answering any questions about c en as I'm still sad that all of Hao's rumoured scheds are still with cn not kr.
I'll probably answer questions once it sinks in to me that it will always be this way now 😅
I bookmarked the question and will answer once I feel okay again sorry
🥺 if it’s any consolation anon I don’t think we ever get rumours for Korean schedules the way we do with Chinese schedules (unless it’s something like a brand event), so maybe there are some schedules cooking up and we just won’t know till closer to the time ❤️

https://neospring.org/+r/583c053a81 it’s interesting how these type of things vary in different industries too because in c-ent magazines are much more valued higher than brands that’s why they hyperfocus on magazine tiers and you have to have a certain amount of relevancy to get to the top tier while in other industries like k-ent even rookies get to cover or feature in mags so the brands they endorse are much more valued or deemed as important
Yeah it’s really show the differences in markets and structure but each works well for the respective countries. It’s different everywhere you tend to go and I do find it quite fascinating tbh!

Probably sponsored since due to schedules, they can't go to any solo brand events now.
Like I can't think for one moment that they should even go to anything else other than their concert so they won't be too tired.
Hmm I mean I doubt an event would be more taxing than an actual schedule or even their practices, all they’d have to do is get dressed and go, say hi to a few people and have some food/drink (if it’s that kinda event) and that’s it. I also doubt a tour is going to stop them attending events if they are free on the day.

Omg I hope u don’t mind, but would it be fine to make the background blue a lighter blue for more contrast between the background and the UI? The lack of contrast rn is a bit not as comfortable to the eyes :’)
That’s alright anon! Let me know if this shade is better ❤️

https://neospring.org/+r/7d97804b16 Anon, can you come back and explain the hierarchy of endorsement titles in c-ent? I understand that spokesperson is the highest title a celeb can get, but that's the only thing I know if I'm being honest.

i get what you mean. im kinda deep into their lore so i really cant see any other option than them literally dating. it makes no other sense.
Yeah like I’m not that deep into it where I know all the intricate details of all the little things that ever happened but even on a surface level I just think like there’s no way they don’t feel ANYTHING for each other.

do you get the haobin hype?
I do 🙂↕️ I don’t really know much about ‘shipping culture’ it’s my first time in kpop spaces and I’ve never really seen anything like this before. Idk if I would say I’m a shipper, I’m just not a denier of the possibility they could have a situation going on if you get me ? I don’t know if I explained myself well then 😭
