Shocking Details Unveiled in HYBE Report on Youngseo’s Departure from ILLIT

Recent findings unveiled during the national assembly reveal that Youngseo, the victor of “R U Next?”, may have exited the group ILLIT as part of a strategic move by HYBE intended to enhance ILLIT’s visibility in the fiercely competitive music landscape. The report disclosed a calculated initiative by HYBE aimed at damaging Youngseo’s reputation to incite controversy and hype surrounding the group’s debut.

According to “online materials” reviewed by HYBE personnel focused on viral marketing tactics, it was suggested that a negative portrayal of Youngseo could be employed to gain traction. The documents indicated, “Youngseo distinguishes herself among the members, so presenting her as a ‘lazy cat’ who behaves like royalty while others appear as modest country dogs could help us outshine groups like NMIXX.”

The strategy extended to allotting each ILLIT member a designated dog breed to attract female and teenage fans, aiming to cultivate a unique identity for the group. Prior to ILLIT’s official debut, Youngseo had emerged as the most favored member due to her striking visuals and outstanding idol capabilities. HYBE’s plan was to leverage her status as the group’s focal point, branding her as the “mean girl” who eclipsed her peers.

This information has incited anger among fans and online observers, raising significant questions about HYBE’s practices and the treatment of trainees within the industry.

In an unexpected turn, just prior to ILLIT’s debut earlier this year, BELIFT LAB disclosed Youngseo’s departure from the group.

“ILLIT will debut as a five-member ensemble. Following thorough discussions concerning future activities, YOUNGSEO and BELIFT LAB have agreed to terminate the exclusive contract.

This decision was reached with thoughtful consideration, honoring the artist’s preferences. The company urges that there be no unfounded speculation or misunderstandings.”
