'>>5503170
Billlie and SuA's brother are an interesting example. Despite it being her brother, they cancelled all the schedules for the week for the group right in the middle of a promotion, released a statement, then the rest of the group without SuA carried on as normal and they never brought it up again.

That's broadly how it goes for active idols, but Moonbin himself was in Astro which was a veteran group at that point and not hugely active, nor were they promoting at the time, so there wasn't actually much to cancel and a single statement covered them. That's a lot more common because most of the idols that succumb to the call of the rope are veterans or even ex-idols.';

'>>5523784
Honestly in most of Asia, English lyrics just sound "cool" and the trend of releasing fully English songs to try and crack the western market is fairly new, and it always comes down to either English versions of an esisting song poorly slapped together just to chance a TikTok hit or when you're in BTS/Twice position original tracks targeted directly at a market you've already broken into.

There's been a glut of English releases fairly recently thanks to Cupid and most of them have either crappy lyrics or vocalists who just can't pull it off, sometimes both. I absolutely love TRI.BE - Wonderland but the English version is an absolute trainwreck.';
