*This is about Winwin*
First of all, I'll explain all of the things that SM Ent. has done to Winwin so far.
First, Winwin is amazing. I'm sure you can tell just by looking at these pictures. From the whole China, he's one of the top classic dancer. Another Chinese trainee claimed that Winwin's audition was legendary and that he learned a lot about classical dance from Winwin. Not only that, Winwin went to the same dance academy that Tang Wei went to, which is known for it's high standards. SM Ent insisted they had to bring him to their company and even flew 9 times in order to recruit him.
However, SM Ent. never treats Winwin properly. He's one of the original members of NCT 127, but he keeps vanishing from the group.
1. No one is allowed to mention his name during live broadcast (If someone mentions his name, a staff will step up and tell them to not mention his name)
2. He didn't participate in NCT 127 first concert, despite the fact that he's one of the debut members of NCT 127
3. He always gets short lines that only last for 3 seconds. No proper lines at all. D
Do you guys know Boss? The only lines he get in that song is 'Shimmy Shimmy' and 'Give me Give me'ㅎㅎ He's still cute anyway~~
4. He already debuted in NCT 127, but was removed and re-debuted in WayV (I'm not degrading WayV, I love WayV!!)
Not to mention that Winwin wasn't there when NCT 127 got their awards...
SM Ent. has been busy doing a lot of things to get rid of Winwin's traces in NCT 127
However, fans heard that NCT will be performing Touch in NCT Beyond Live!!! Fans thought they would finally be able to see Winwin again...
During the promotions of Touch, Winwin is usually seen wearing a beret and he also has a killing part that goes 'Nananana'. He loves that lines, so do the fans. It was the most legendary era ever! (His photocard is also very expensive)
You can see how much he loves his lines in that song just by looking at these screen captures
However, the team performed Touch without Winwin. I don't know who made the order of the performance but after Touch, WayV performed Bad Alive (Winwin is also in WayV). If it was pre-recorded, they couldn't make any excuses about why Winwin couldn't perform Touch. But if it was a live show, wouldn't he be standing on the back-stage while watching someone else doing his favorite lines in the song? It's breaking my heart
Let's heal our heart by looking at this picture of Winwin in Touch era before we continue
And then!!!
After the concert ended, they did a live broadcast. Winwin was seen standing next to the member who did his lines in Touch.
That other member talked about how he liked singing the 'Nananana' part in Touch. Then he danced to that part while Winwin was standing next to him.
I couldn't take proper screen-captures but right before the camera zoomed into that other member, we can see Winwin dancing to that part too. It's his lines!!! But he couldn't even sing it!!!
He only danced a little bit in a timid manner...
(I don't hate that other member!! I love him!! All I hate is SM, who made this whole situation)
As a fan of Winwin, I am very upset and raged at SM Ent. They should've made NCT 127 perform the songs that didn't have Winwin's parts in it. Did they really have to remove Winwin just like that...?
Last but not least, I don't love SM Ent. However, please give a lot of attention to Winwin, whom NCT and his fans love with their whole hearts~~
I don't know if SM Ent. is going to keep treating him like this if NCT ever gets any more popular...
I'll post a lot of Winwin's pictures in the comment section so make sure to give him a lot of attention!
[+734][-35]
1. [+164][-1] I've always wanted to believe that the reason Winwin couldn't promote with NCT127 is because it overlaps with WayV's promotions. However, it looks like SM is making it clear that they're removing him from NCT127 this time. SM Ent. has totally crossed the lines. I can't believe they performed Touch without Winwin, when he was actually there. It's really cruel. Don't pretend like all the time NCT127 spent with Winwin was nothing. Winwin said it himself, that he will forever be a part of NCT127
2. [+163][-1] It'd be more comfortable for everyone if SM Ent. just releases an announcement about Winwin leaving NCT127. He's not even withdrawing from the group, but all his traces were removed, his teammates are forbidden to talk about him, and he's not included in the group's performances. But if you look up his name in the searching engine, it will say that he's a part of NCT127. Do you think it's comfortable for Winwin to see another member singing his lines? Do you think it's comfortable for that other member to sing Winwin's part as well? They debuted together, they've grown attached to each other and now SM is trying to get rid of that. Do you think NCT127's members feel comfortable with that? How about the members who joined the group later, do you think it's comfortable for them too? They want to say that they want to promote together, but they can't. Do you think it's comfortable for all the members? They flew back and forth 9 times to recruit him, and now that he's in the company, they're just abandoning him like that? Sometimes, I imagine if Winwin hadn't joined the company. I know no matter how much we ask SM to return him to NCT127, they won't. If they're not letting Winwin promote in Korea, they really should put out an announcement.
3. [+110][-1] I'm not a fan but it's really breaking my heart to read all of this. I put myself in their shoes and imagine if it was my bias, therefore I upvoted this post!! I will be rooting for Winwin!^^
4. [+79][-0] I really feel sorry towards Winwin and Taeil. They didn't even want to be idols at first, but SM Ent. lured them and they fell for it. They could've done so much better, but now they're all buried deep down and I feel really sorry for them because of that. I really like them, and yes, I'm thankful for SM for making me know them but to think that they're not even treated right by SM is very heart-breaking. I hope karma bites SM Ent. in their ass.
5. [+64][-0] I'm a fan of Winwin and I cried. I'm not even mad, but I cried. During the promotions of Touch, he once said in a radio show that Touch is the song that suits his style really well and that he liked it. If you look up his fancams during this promotion, you'll see how excited he is whenever he performs the song. To imagine him on the backstage watching the group performing Touch without him is very heart-breaking for me.
