honestly mbk probably happened to chaeyeon :( if i remember right didn't she have to sit out a dia promotional period due to a health issue? I just looked it up quickly and yeah they promoted their last comeback without her and Somyi and well we know that there was some shit going on with Somyi so I wonder if Chaeyeon had her own issues. I hope she's doing ok
The big one for me is WKMK will be on Weekly Idol on the 1st December, I can't wait! It'll be their first one since 2019 when they were double guests with Everglow (iconic tbh) but Suyeon and Doyeon were absent (and doyeon will be absent again, such a shame). Nonetheless I'm impressed at the amount of promotions they're doing, considering we all thought this would lowkey be a disbandment era.
apparently the previous comeback was to test waters if a lack of Chaeyeon could save the group, because she did perform with the group for that song live much later. Somyi is only lacking the official announcement, since Eunchae called herself the maknae sometime last year?
this promo has given a lot of content, but it seems catered to fans only or YouTube related stuff? or is Fantagio betting on the algorithm to help promote WKMK, because they need people to stream/buy their stuff!
i'd argue that that youtube/streaming/more facetiously 'homegrown' content, is the now/future of idol content? there's stuff i haven't posted here due to lack of subs - they appeared on seulgi's show, a few other broadcast tv interviews - but it's had such a meteoric rise in recent years, especially buoyed by the pandemic, that i think this is just part of standard idol advertising strategy. as for who they're aiming these activities at - to test if established fan groups are still about - who knows!
such a shame about somyi, she was such a great performer. mbk truly deserves to go the way of ts.

i love that fantagio was like "well we could send sei and rina but we could also send the three that'll be the absolute worst at this"

WKMK needs to be on more varieties, it’s such a waste for them to be doing their own content only
