From the turmoil around "Fifty Fifty"
「Fifty Fifty」周辺の騒動から
Sympathetic voices for Fifty's "agency representative", who supports them with his own money, but demands that the members terminate their contracts... 110 million yen for the MV, 3 million yen per month for lessons, and 300,000 yen for rent
Fifty Fifty's "Cupid" is like a girlie version of BTS' "Boy With Luv".
The sophistication of the song and the performance skills are not as good as BTS's, but the simplicity and nostalgia of the song are more pronounced.
I feel that American K-POP fans who are more on the side of BTS sympathized more with Fifty Fifty than BLACKPINK. That's why they sold so well in America.
The shift in popularity from America to Britain is similar to that of BTS.
So it doesn't seem like Fifty Fifty became so popular because of their musical skills.
I think the agency's strategy, which involved thoroughly examining BTS' style and paying a kind of homage, was a success.
I think Fifty Fifty should have worked a little more in line with the agency's strategy.
However, they received offers from all over, and huge sums of money were also in the air.
I thought that the reason they were so successful and could speak foreign languages was because they were all young ladies from wealthy families.
It's only been seven months since their debut - seeing how they've made such aggressive demands so soon, I wonder if they're not girls from families with a comfortable lifestyle?
If that's the case, it's not something that an outsider can just get involved in.
Normally, they wouldn't be able to turn their backs on the people who made them successful, but perhaps it was because of some kind of contact from the outside that the members became ill and made these demands?
That's just how it looks from the outside.
