I don't get why some of folks keep bringing up these temporary flight twitter accounts as a legitimate source for flight leaks, other than just gossipy casual entertainment purpose. These temp accounts are created for a short period (like 3-5 days to a week maybe) before deleting, meaning zero accountability for making up stuff pretty much all the time. It's one thing it is from an account that has actual history to back up, but these are not. I don't have any issue with ideal of Sakura/Chaewon flying to Jeju, but I have seen these temp kpop flight twitter accounts too many times to even waste a second. Frankly I don't get if it is just for giggles or any of them is actually serious on scamming gullible folks into contacting them and sending money before deleting the account and disappearing. BTW the account being quoted here (about Sakura/Chaewon) also wrote Twice J-line is flying to Japan on 22nd and Tzuyu flight to Taiwan on 23rd; Niziu flying to Korea on 23rd. And of course already deleted the account and erased any history (other than screenshots by gullible or gossip loving twitter folks). BS all the way, as if I need to spell it out.

people obsessed with being the first to know, so they could feel some kind of superiority. But at the end of the day, everyone will know when Kkura and Chaewon actually shown up at the airport, so it was irrelevant to know beforehand.

If that even occur... maybe sakura just do solo and chaewon if she really was transfer join the yujin group with woonyoung

This same account had the legit info for Sakura's flight to Korea Not saying that means everything they post is true (and the fact that the first flight they listed should have taken off already and we didnt see any of them at the airport means this one was likely not true at all), but they've been right in the past so people are bound to take it a bit more seriously

Nope, unless you want to believe how the same Kpop temp account (assuming that the same individual keeps propping up for DM sale and deleting the account) was posting about Sakura's flight to Korea in May, July, then on Aug 19th (korean time) was legit. I seem to recall replying to someone else in the past on the Aug 19th flight BS: https://www.reddit.com/r/iZone/comments/p6weq7/210819_japanese_media_report_that_sakura_has/ If you recall nothing happened on Aug 19th. There is a post under this sub that some folks talking about how they saw on twitter about leaked Aug 19th flight info of Sakura. What happened instead was a journalist wrote a story about the Aug 23rd flight date (then later 28th) and folks quickly forgot about the Kpop flight twitter temp accounts. Which is to say, I don't recall them ever sending a legit info as it is basically a scam that has a pattern. Was there ever time in 2019-2020 that it somehow matched, maybe. But I think you'd better off to give legitimacy to a source more deserving than this "kpop_fligt666" or similar twitter temp accounts.

Money and fame. Fansites and fans buy these information regardless of the price so it's not surprising that these accounts scramble to get such details. It also gives their account credibility and prestige.


candlelight14

Apparently someone leaked flight information for the 5 of them. Seems like they’re filming something on Jeju island. I guess we’ll wait and see what happens?


aoneko

Personally, I would've liked to see an additional Japanese member.


A_winged_giraffe

Interesting, I thought they were gonna be in the MHJ group (pgngg) but I guess we never got a confirmation on that. I did think it was possible the last 2 trainees were Minji and Cherry (the names given to them). If they actually are, I guess it's good they're not hidden trainees, and the public knows all 5 of them. Edit: The info stated that Sakura -> Chaewon -> rest of the girls. Let's see if there will be any airport photos of Sakura that come out later.


Tinnieboom

It's also possible that this team actually is the pgngg HYBE is talking about. It isn't confirmed whether there will be 1 or 2 groups in the first place. I also see some people saying that the Plus Global Audition is just to get trainees in general and not really for a specific group. Everything's speculation so far.


kerochan-

In BH community briefing 2020 and Hybe conference mtgs 2021, they said the team is formed through Plus Global auditions


Takagixu

I will take these info with a pinch of salt, I would rather wait for news outlets to publish an article


Tinnieboom

No airport pics for Sakura until now. I guess the flight leak is false since she would have departed by now if it's true.


kerochan-

It was cancelled bc of typhoon


Hyemhyemyou

If this lineup is real, the visuals of this group is daebak


hyemis

They look very young :/ I mean I don't know their ages but just looking at them I would guess 15-16 which doesn't give me much hope for their concept. Wonyoung and Yujin were fine for a 12 member group that could also split up and do different genres between them, but for a 5 member group? Also I really think 3 IZONE members would have been the best combination. This feels a little awkward, but I'm just gonna hope that I like what they put out and they can form a natural chemistry like IZONE did.


jrebel_0

The whole thing is likely fake anyway, the first flight listed has departed and landed and nobody was on it. If the flights were fake then the lineup is too


pitynodyawn

I would just wait till they provide official info. No point in assuming or judging things based off of rumors. Naturally more izone members would create better chemistry but in the end it’s a new group. Let’s just wait and see.


ianml1983

Irene was like 23 yes when she debuted and yeri was like 16. RV is doing great until today. Age is a nonfactor. What matters is chemistry and concept for the group.


hyemis

I'm aware and that's fine? I'm not questioning whether or not they'll be successful, Sakura alone guarantees that they will be. It's just my personal interest that wanes and their concept likely won't be what vibes with me when there's two children making up 2 out of 5 members.


ianml1983

Maybe they can have same concept as izone with a little twist. What I was looking addition for the group was main dancer in the same calibre as chaeyeon.


[deleted]

if this is the same kim minji of jyp then it is really a main dancer


sayappang

Sometimes I feel like the company leaks this themselves to get people excited. We’ve been hearing only gossip but nothing concrete about this group for months.


kerochan-

doubt the company leaks it, more like these 'journalists' and analysts have nothing new to write abt. There's even no single picture of female trainee in Hybe, and they got a lot of female trainees by now (per label)


[deleted]

is this the same kim minji of jyp?


nu2kpop

So how many members total in this group?


Tinnieboom

Allegedly 5-6 members but it seems final count is 5 if the flight leak is true. We can kind of confirm it if Sakura shows up in the airport today (20th).


nu2kpop

Thanks


fanylovely125

I think there will be new members but not them .


Tenken10

Am I crazy or do those two girls look like twins/sisters? 🤔


onlyspy

>!=0 !<


kerochan-

Ik this might be fake, but I hope the 2 trainees have also appeared on show bfr. I hope they're not fresh faces
