I think that’s lors complicated to do that it seems. Doing a Chinese concept to a chinese audience is so risky. Do you see Cpop artist having “chinese themed” mv ? I don’t remember so.What is a chinese concept in your eyes ? Is it something to please your western view of China ? https://twitter.com/kunsbanana/status/1300662030777499649
I think it’s just a matter of time. WayV is only a 1 yo group that already received critics for aiming a chinese public in Korea; and they still have to make their own name in such a difficult market that is the chinese music industry - https://twitter.com/shoooo_cacao/status/1300721845256114177
They have to balance everything as a not traditional cpop group (that is not even really cpop). And now you’re asking for a korean label to do a not so stereotypical chinese concept ? As if they were chinese themselves ? Idk, it seems not easy at all imo
So the question is : what will be the “chinese concept” for ? The cfans who are here for the “Neo” brand ? Or the international fans who know nothing about a real traditional chinese concept ? Or the chinese gp they have to please perfectly ? Or the kfans ?
In conclusion : give WayV time, why are y’all in hurry for everything.
Last tweet before I move on : I have yet to see SM do a concept based on another Asian culture than Korea’s. They never had to do a « Japanese concept » (or whatever you call it bc I still don’t get what you mean with this) for their Japanese audiences and they
Never have done an explicit « chinese concept » before either. Probably bc it’s not their forte and it’s okay
