1. [+1,919, -55] I don't think this is such a good idea, am I the only one?

2. [+1,416, -44] Huh????????

3. [+1,426, -48] Is this Fantagio looking at the bigger picture... but I'm worried that the kids will lose better opportunities here

4. [+909, -43] Why all the way in America...

5. [+483, -64] Be healthy and come back improved~

6. [+152, -12] Sorry to say but they're going to be forgotten fast. This is an industry where new stars are born every day.

7. [+199, -28] Fantagio is crazy ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ having a young age is life or death for girl group members, why are they sending them abroad at the perfect age for debut? ㅋㅋㅋ

8. [+137, -10] Don't send them away ㅜㅜ it's not like you're going to train them to become musicians or artists, is it necessary to send them all the way to America ㅡㅡ they need to seize the opportunity of all the fame they've racked up right here in Korea

9. [+163, -22] About as ridiculous sounding as the Wonder Girls being sent to America

10. [+112, -6] There are tons of talented singers and dancers who can train them right here in Korea, it's not necessary to send them to America

11. [+134, -11] I'm already sensing their agency screwing up. This is the time for them to be banking on their hard earned fame. They should be scouting additional members to debut them in a group asap.

12. [+89, -5] Are they going to end up like G Soul... it's hard to trust what this company is doing because they're mostly focused on actors

13. [+71, -0] Pretty sure getting them on TV shows in Korea would be better for their careers right now

14. [+67, -3] Their agency is crazy. This is the perfect timing to debut, why purposely choose a path that will lead to them being forgotten! Why why why!

15. [+52, -0] I'll assure you one thing, their popularity is going to drop once they leave for America. There are hundreds of kids who can replace them in an instant debuting every day. Don't be greedy when you already have something good.

1. [+63, -3] They're going to America to learn singing, dancing, and English???? There are tons of stars already in Korea who are talented in singing, dancing, and foreign languages... Reality is that studying abroad isn't going to give them a leg up, otherwise everyone who did it would be a star

2. [+60, -2] I've never seen a celebrity who went to America come back to a successful career

3. [+50, -2] Do they think America is a ticket to success or something

4. [+14, -0] Try as they may but I think the only one who will make it out alive out of all of this is Somi, who's under a big agency... Debuting in Korea to a successful career is all about star potential, not necessarily talent in singing or dancing. If that were the case, we'd have a lot more stars than we do now..

5. [+10, -1] They'll rack up the expenses for studying abroad and then not get paid for years on end trying to pay it all back after debut ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
