Song Joong Ki used to call Song Hye Kyo his ideal type and dream girl, constantly talking about how badly he wanted to work with her. Then, barely a year into their marriage, while she was out of the country, he blindsided her with a public divorce announcement and immediately apologized to his fans.
One last 2GB moment from our beloved holoroid
In an attempt to add a second column to his setlist, Rikka accidentally deletes the whole setlist, then replaces it with huge text of "everyone's love"

please god i know this is against etiquette but please reincarnate. please let us support you without that evil ass company having to take a cut. you must know you are so loved.
Miyabi clearly doesn't want to graduate.
Sucks that he was expecting all of this to last much longer than this.
So soul crushing to have something you love to do fall apart around you and the best option is to let it go.
bench is a filipino brand and filipinos have every right to call them out for keeping him as an endorser. as filipino, we dont want that nasty ass pedo so stfu
They all more or less stated on stream they’re graduating not because they want to leave behind Holostars, but for mainly 2 reasons:
Holostars as a group ceased existing and they have no interest in pursuing solo careers where they can’t perform together anymore, and
With no opportunity for making revenue outside of superchats it just isn’t financially feasible anymore. The fact that the corpo still takes their cut despite providing no more support probably also plays into this.
To this day there’s one thing I really don’t understand: StarsJP already had most of its resources cut by ~2024? Most things were already gone, merch had been standardized, group merch was always collab stuff, 3D lives outside of the annual group event were self-funded, and so on. What was really left that would cost COVER *that* much money that they’re willingly taking such a hit to their reputation? Management salaries? Really, can someone explain? lol
I’m not so naive as to think you can live off hopes and dreams and I understand that numbers matter, so the decision to cut budget I can get to a degree. But really, how much money did they save by bullying their talents into graduation - sorry, I mean stopping of streaming activities - and alienating a whole fanbase?
Maybe I am looking at this with too much trust for COVER. The decision to cut them off anything that could create revenue probably wasn’t so that COVER could save money, was it?
This is just my personal opinion, but rather than being subjected to this disrespectful shitshow, I’d have preferred if they had announced they were disbanding the branch and giving them one last 3D send-off event. Would have probably been better for their PR too at this point, lmao.
It really shouldn’t have ended like this.
A graduation relay where none of the talents really want to leave, but have to
A CEO who talks about support that no longer exists
A collab where the talents openly diss the company and ask for a refund for 7 years of their lives that they can’t even put on a CV
An official account with no staff left for a goodbye and thank you tweet for members graduating after 6+ years of activity
It’s all so absurd
