— “First and foremost, we would like to sincerely thank HIDDEN KARD for your unwavering love and support for KARD throughout the years.
KARD will release their first album “Where To Now? (Part.2) : NOWHERE” on July 28, followed by a world tour.
After careful and thoughtful discussions with all four members, we have mutually agreed that this album and tour will mark the conclusion of KARD’s journey as a group.

“JYP Entertainment was able to produce new groups because of TWICE’s earnings. Without TWICE, at least half of JYPE’s recent activities would have been impossible”
Jype you bitch
Itzy were ready for bigger things years ago, you deliberately killed the hype and watered down their solo and group promotions so what did you expect????
Itzy deserves so much better
jype complaining itzy doesn’t have the commercial appeal to do stadium concerts while making them perform 3 days of sold out shows in 15k capacity arenas
they want to develop itzy Seven Years into their career….. mind you they could have already been bigger than they are right now if things were done right
with this thing going on abt jype having to still “create a group that will be the next backbone of the company” next to twice and skz kinda pisses me off bc they already have existing groups with talented people that aren’t given enough promotion to get noticed worldwide…
2PM were sent to Japan to tour for literal years because JYPE was in a very rocky financial position, which is also part of why their domestic popularity began to decline. They had Suzy accepting every CF known to mankind. Wonder Girls' U.S. expansion failed to deliver the results JYPE had bet on and contributed to the company's downturn, while miss A were already on the brink of disbandment.
TWICE debuted at the worst possible time for JYPE. The company was struggling financially and was even being outperformed by non-Big 3 companies. SIXTEEN (the survival show that formed TWICE) was, bluntly, a flop in terms of ratings and received poor reactions online. While their peers from SM and YG were debuting with 10,000 album sales, TWICE debuted with 700 and landed near the bottom of the Korean charts. They promoted their debut song for seven months just to get people to notice them.
Y'all are not about to rewrite history and downplay TWICE's hard work
New onces didn't experienced Twice total sabotage by JYP from 2019-2022, Twice went from having dozens of brand deals to literally 5, comeback promotions reduced from 3 weeks to 3 days, no magazine photoshoots, bad music video production until More & More, WE WERE IN HELL 😭
jyp’s audacity is UNMATCHED djsjsjsj they’ll fuck a whole group’s hype and image, spend 2$ on promo and then they’ll be like “we’re waiting for them to prove themselves”
