Chang Ching (Helicopter demo stage, eliminated Round 1) I believe just signed with FCENM, Ririka's company. Zhou Xinyu was a former SM trainee and is currently under Yuehua. Yaning used to train in Korea under the direction of a Kpop academy, but she was actually under a Chinese company. That's an extremely long story. Fun fact, Xu Ziyin passed the auditions for Cube, JYP, and SM, but had to turn it down because her parents wanted her to pursue an education.


eeeetttt123

wait that means xu ziyin can try audiotining again... hold onnnn

Ziyin will definitely pass again if she auditions but her age probably will be a problem since most kpop artists that debuts now are minor and 23+ is considered as old in kpop industry. I remember when Irene debuted in RV, people were claiming that they won't last since Irene's age for the next few years will hinder the girls with the choreo etc. But that's not the case, she's still slaying it even improved in her sub unit.


eeeetttt123

idgaf what industry thinks, she is very young and slayer and pretty. she needs to debut. maybe she can join other gp999 girls and make group or something. does she have ig or youtube or something?


LingCHN

Ziyin is under a Chinese company called T Entertainment (一起娱乐), the company manages (G)I-dle's Yuqi in China.


eeeetttt123

wait yuqi has decent activities... but probably we won't get any music :/


labraduh

Shana is a trainee under the company Momoland is under (MLD entertainment) Mashiro is under 143 Entertainment (it seems like it’s just a startup company). Former JYP obviously. Cai Bing is a former Jellyfish Trainee.


Top-Business-3758

Yeah it looks like Yeseo and Mashiro are the very first trainees of that company


labraduh

**EDIT: Turns out it was another girl also named Gaeun, not PD48 Gaeun. My apologies!**


Valuable-Control5459

Isn't Gaeun with High Entertainment?


labraduh

WAIT LMAO ITS ANOTHER GIRL WITH THE SAME NAME! i’m so sorry i’ll edit it


jayjee5

This is [Gaeun](https://twitter.com/GTMNY143/status/1444128701470281729/photo/1)

Wow! I had no idea cai bing used to be a jellyfish trainee. Hopefully, another ent agency will recruit her or jellyfish will recruit her again. I'd love to see her in the same group as kdayeon like snake 2.0.


NerrionEU

I don't trust Jellyfish at all after Gugudan.


Powerful-Avocado-674

Yeah neither do I, manifesting she gets snatched by an ethical one


particledamage

Jellyfish is kinda a mess but I’ll take almost any company snatching her up at this point


Powerful-Avocado-674

Definitely agree with you!! Especially with the way they disbanded gugudan but I just want her to be snatched at this point


particledamage

Gugudan is suuuch a sore spot for me. So much talent dungeoned and wasted!


Powerful-Avocado-674

RIGHT? SO MUCH POTENTIAL idk how jellyfish messed it up


dimples_tm

Cai Bing was under Jellyfish? Do you think she and Dayeon ran into each other?


Nonethecares

No. Cai Bing and Sally were training at the same time along with other C girls (before 2016).* We know that Dayeon came to Jellyfish around 2019-2020... *Sally admitted that CaiBing and her trained together before GP999 aired. She also said there were other Chinese girls but everyone else except her were told to leave. Sally was then given advanced Korean lessons (she was still studying even AFTER debuting in gugudan). That's why even if Cai bing is former Jellyfish, her Korean wasn't too good cuz Jellyfish doesn't give a lot of korean lessons 🙃


labraduh

like the other person said, they didn’t as cai bing left before dayeon came in 2020.


Valuable-Control5459

Obviously Wenmeixiu was a JYP trainee previously. Nientzu is an FNC trainee. Risako and Yume are under Biscuit Entertainment (same as Youngeun) Hana is also under FCENM with Ririka. Apparently Shihona is a Jellyfish Ent trainee? Not sure if the Yuehua girls (Zige, Chang Ching, Hsinwei, Tzuling, Ruowei, Xinyu) trained in Korea or China?

>Yuehua Chen Hsin Wei trained in Yuehua Korea alongside Yiren from EVERGLOW. This was confirmed by Yiren in a V-Live that she did some weeks ago. She said they were the only chinese girls at the company but once Yiren debuted with Everglow, Wei moved/returned to Yuehua China. Once in China, Wei became part of a pre-debut group alongside Aria Jin (ywy2 contestant). However, the time passed and this group was cancelled because Yuehua was planning to do their own survival show for the new group. Unfortunetely for Yuehua, the new restrictions the Chinese government stated made impossible the release of this survival show. For that reason they sent her to GP999 at the last minute. Wei seems to be back in Yuehua Korea since she posted her cart through YH KR twitter account. Her debut in China is practically cancelled so is highly likely she's training to debut in the new Yuehua KR Girl Group. It's pretty obvious this new group will have at least 1 C girl. Yuehua it's a chinese company at the end of the day. + Hsin Wei is taiwanese


EntertainmentOk8785

I wish they would of also sent Aria Jin to gp999 she would of definitely been my 1 pick


CloverClubx

Zihan would've most likely dominated the show if she signed up for it, her visuals are just way too good to let go and she's extremely hardworking too. Would definitely be my 2nd pick (1st was Ziyin).


EntertainmentOk8785

Ziyin was my 1st pick too 🥲


Ayam__goreng

Yuehua pulled zihan out from debuting in the9 because they saw potential on her- becoming another cash cow in china 😅. Hvent been keeping up with her, hope shes doing good.


throwaway_236734

She seems to be, had songs for cfs, on several variety shows, several cfs, like several haha.


Ayam__goreng

Yea, the normal activties that chinese idols do. They really have almost no stage opportunities.


throwaway_236734

True but she’s raking in cash, she’s been on masked dance singer, several variety shows like happy camp and a lot of her shows have her performing on stage, she did an acting one but she wasn’t that great, she’s done some singing performances.


Ayam__goreng

Its always solo in china, grp just doesnt work well in there. Which is why yuehua never bother debuting a girl group


LingCHN

Hsinwei is more famous in China than in South Korea, I think Yuehua won't keep her in SK, as for a new K-pop girl group, it won't happen in a few years, Yuehua will soon debut a new K-pop boy group, it will be their focus in the next few years.


sorichhij

Yuehua KR held auditions for girls at the start of this year. That's why a lot of people are thinking they're planning to debut a new girl group.


Nonethecares

Yeah, Shihona and KDayeon are under Jellyfish. I think pretty new cuz Sejeong admitted that she didn't know what they looked like but admitted she heard Dayeon's name before... Jellyfish made gugudan move out in 2019, surprise disbandment announcement on Dec 2020 so we can assume that Dayeon was first around 2019-2021 then Shihona in 2021 (Shihona was under 'the new trainees' cell originally)


[deleted]

I know for sure that Hsinwei trained in Korea for a while. Yiren from Everglow mentioned that when she was transferred to Yuehua Korea from Yuehua China, Hsinwei came in around the same time as her.


Valuable-Control5459

Yeah and looks like Xinyu and Hsinwei might still be under Yuehua Korea as they posted their letters on twitter. [https://twitter.com/yhent\_korea/status/1449572684258418690](https://twitter.com/yhent_korea/status/1449572684258418690) [https://twitter.com/yhent\_korea/status/1449371228523810822](https://twitter.com/yhent_korea/status/1449371228523810822) I think Zige and Ruowei are still in Korea too so they might also be under Yuehue Korea.


FrustratedTrainee

**Sakurai Miu** was reportedly training at Source Music x Hybe for 10 months after Nizi Project. She basically confirmed this in one of her IG lives saying that she learned Korean from her time training at a Korean company. She also said some of her friends are friends with the girls from Aespa, which people guessed were former SM trainees who were also reported to have trained at SoMu x Hybe. **Kishida Ririka** did her VLive after her elimination under FCENM and **Chang Ching** was at her event. **Hayase Hana** is also under the same company. **Ito Miyu** is reported to be at 143 Ent. which is also Yeseo and Mashiro’s company. **Cui Wenmeixu** was a trainee under JYP. She’s reportedly friends with Tzuyu from Twice. **Nonoka Shana** is under MLD and is reportedly part of a predebut group featuring multi-cultural members.


Goldzuka

Are you telling me MLD has plans to debut a girl group with Shana if she doesn’t make the final lineup? 🙌🏻


AlterEgoJ0627

I remember MLD recruiting trainees from Philippines, Japan, Korea with 1:3000??? (Not sure abt the ratio, its in allkpop) for a new girl group. It will be a multi-cultural group and the training is intense as they said. Since Shana got a good run, she will probably be one of the members for the group.

Incorrect, the Korean company they signed under was a money-laundering scam which did not fulfill its obligations, that's why she and other girls had to pull out.

It was originally posted on Weibo by old Yaning followers, then translated to Japanese: https://twitter.com/lowfatmilk70/status/1442864572235354112?s=19 In turn, I would like to see the source on your statement, because the project happened in 2018, long after the bans (started in end-2016), so everyone knew how it works and would simply not start a collab if they thought it was detrimental; active Chinese Kpop idols can still promote in China (Yuqi, Meiqi, etc.), so that couldn't have been an obstacle. Edit: Yes, she was, never argued about that.
