When nu'est comes under hybe label I wasn't really happy with that bcz i got bad feeling about their disbandment. Nu'est journey is truly inspirational, it's not easy for them . Nu'est have very unique music style, they all r multi-talented & self produce idol group . They r one of the most amazing group in the kpop.

The fact that Baekho keeps bringing up other members during his solo debut promotions, both kills me inside and gives me hope

Can’t still accept this, I hope one day they will reunite

I’m crying again that company was the worst thing that ever happened to them

Gfriend was the first kpop group I knew and supported. NU’EST was the only boy group I had on my playlist. Their disbandments are so similar. It broke my heart.

HYBE is turning into that company you see in kdrama, sabotage their own group just so they don't look bad and blame the group

I kept telling myself they wanted this, they wanted to pursue their own dreams and goals but I always thought about this... NU'EST was everything to them as much as it was to us. Everything was just way too rushed to be a proper final goodbye so I know we will see all of them together again and yeah till then, like Lay said, let's support the boys with what they are doing now..Thanks for making this ❤️❤️ People should know that Nu'est wasn't a band that disbanded because they were unpopular or had bad chemistry cause they definitely had it all.

I hope just like GOT7 they get the rights to their group or start their own company. I feel so sorry for JR, I cannot imagine the anxiety and the sadness that he must have felt after doing so much for the group. On a different note, it was nice to see Ren's cheeks filled out, he's had to maintain the feminine image for so long and even though it's clear he loves the fashion behind it, I cannot imagine the dieting that he must have gone through to maintain that image.

I still can't believe they disbanded...💔😭 I always thought Nu'est would be a very long lasting group. Nu'est is my childhood & I will forever be grateful for knowing them. Thank you.

I will not lose hope for them to reunite. They are the one of the few that I've been a fan.😭🥺 we'll wait for OT5 . Forever L.O.ㅅ.E

idols should be owners of their group names and destinies they need laws that protect them, I mean they are artists and make thousands of millions for their companies but they own almost nothing, then they are discarded like nothing, companies taking all is just devil

I became a love right after their romanticize album in 2021. So I was eagerly waiting for their next comeback. And I wanted to see them live at Nu'est concert one day. It was so heartbreaking to hear their disbandment news💔 I really miss them so much 😢 Hope we can see them together one day. 🥺 Thankyou for making this video.

I really hope we can see them together again one day :(

As an outsider looking in, this is so heartbreaking. I hope the members continue to keep doing what they love and somehow reunite in the future. Sadly, it all comes down to business and politics for companies.

Ok low key worried for my girls fromis_9 since our fandom is majority Korean based 🥲 I really hope one day we will see NU’EST as one again, I can feel it!

I believe the future us will be smiling watching NU'EST live in their concerts. We will make it there, I promise.

i feel like it’s always the groups with exceptional talent and passion that end up being broken by the industry

Thank Lay for always speaking our hearts out. I'm Forever Grateful to you. Loves lets stay together.

I miss them, I was a big fan of em >;

For LOVE it came as a shock, having known they had activities planned for 2022 and then having them anounce disbandment. It made absolutely no sense. We are still highly upset at Hybe. Anyway, Baekho will have his debut single Absolute Zero come out in a few days, hope you guys listen to it.

Thank you so much for making this video! I hope more people know about NU'EST disbandment and why it is so heartbreaking 🥺

Thank you for making this video the way that you edited the video… just wow… you really captured my heart as a love you explained how we have all been feeling so perfectly. You really portrayed the whole D-word events spot on. 👏 Thank you For being a Love who Always walks with Nu’est now I have to go and try to stop crying… Until we see our boys as 5 again 🐢🐶🐯🦊🐰❤

I remember first getting the hint that kpop exists back in 2012 when I heard Gangnam Style. After that I used to get some kpop groups recommendation in youtube. Top most common groups that I was recommended was Girls Generation, Big Bang, Exo and NU'EST. I didn't knew what kpop was but I did heard them and really enjoyed them. However after a month I lost my phone and the algorithm was reset in new phone. I didn't knew anything related to kpop until I heard the name BTS kept popping up everywhere during 2017-18. I got in kdramas by the end of 2018 amd through some show I kept discovering some kpop idols, its through the kdrama fans that I discovered that there's actually a whole kpop industry and there are multiple groups and solos. I had already tried getting myself into kpop starting with BTS but sadly their music didn't get me invested on first try (no offense to BTS, they're indeed talent but just didn't get me initially), I tried another 4th generation group through a friend's recommendation but couldn't get in them either. I had had almost given up on kpop thinking it's not my type until I came across Exo members through kdramas. I noticed the name Exo popping out everywhere in kdramas section (it was also triggering my old memories) and since I really liked their acting, I decided to give one last chance to kpop. Thankfully Exo didn't disappoint me and I finally was able to get into kpop through their videos. That's when I started to discover new groups amd finally came across NU'EST and Girls Generation which unlocked my memories. They were so freaking good and they made me realize that I actually like whole 2nd generation and a few 3rd generation groups. I've been a multistan since then until I had to leave kpop and kdramas in 2021 due to personal reasons. I came back after 2-3 years only to discover one of my favorite groups has disbanded. NU'EST were already really amazing so had they waited more long, Hwang Min Hyun's shows were big success. That would've helped promote NU'EST even further in the same way it happened for SF9. I'm truly sorry what the fandom had to go through. The company really failed them and their artist. I can't even comprehend what these boys had to go through.

Few minutes ago, I was talking how absurd it is to find Aron Mcing Kcon not Performing there. As much as I'm soo proud of him, it broke my heart. I still can't accept it. Still believe that at some point they will get back together. They're on hiatus to me. The story is never ending, Right Nuest?

The sad irony that now Minhyun's role on Alchemy of Souls has brought in foreigners and if HYBE weren't so narrow-minded they would have seen massive growth was coming with his expanding acting roles. It's clear Minhyun and Baekho seemed to be trapped at HYBE for a bit but hoping for a GOT7-style release for them one day.

I still feel empty inside, Nue'st are one of my ultis and when news broke about their disbandment I was livid. I just hope they will find the strength to come back as a group again, they went through so much to just move on and never speak about their group again.

Dang, I didn't know Nu'est's disbandment was done in such a dirty way. I followed them from afar, love listening to their songs, and when I learned that they disbanded I thought it was a regular case of older idols moving on with their individual careers. That's kind of depressing to hear how Hybe not only disbanded them suddenly without making the transition easier for them, but did this *to a profitable group.* So stupid. They could've at least helped the members to transition to another company and reform the group elsewhere, if they didn't want to deal with Nu'est anymore.

I don't need more reasons, I know that they were forced to dissolve and in this video there are only several verifiable facts about it! I hate Pledis and Hybe for that! I don't know if it was because they were considered competition, or because they didn't want to continue managing a group that wasn't fresh in years, what I do know is that the sadness and pain that they make us live will one day weigh on them! As for my wonderful boys, your example of strength and perseverance, everything they have taught me for years, reinforces my hope for the future! #NUEST will return, God willing because they and LO/\E are an endless story! ♥ Thank u so much for this video!!

*fuck* HYBE, for real tho. I was absolutely devastated and i regularly rewatch the Again MV and cry. Every Nu'est song is so good, i have so many of their albums, and i've been a fan since 2013. Forcefully disbanding them on their 10th anniversary is so awful, i feel so terrible for them

Gfriend and Nu'est. My bias groups killed off by a major shareholder. Oh well. At least Baekho's going to release his solo this Wednesday. And Jonghyeon will be releasing his next month. So. All Nu'est fans. You know what to do.

i need a nuest reunion so bad

Really well made, Lay. And it's make me miss them even more. I'm happy that they are so busy now, buy still.. I miss them as NU'EST so much. 🤧🤧

Now i'm angry again. Thank you for made it.

Still holding out hope that they will return and sing “again” live - for us

This just resurrect my heartbreak 😭 💔 thanks for the video, it's very nicely done :)

Throwback heartaches 😭😭😭 even the d word was a couple of months ago, the pain is still hard to get over it. It is hard to accept the fact that they've been separated not by their choice but for whom ??? I wanna blame those agencies who mishandled them despite the fact that they worked hard to stay together as Nuest for a lifetime. Nuest can be Nuest as long as they want even they are in separate ways and me as a fan will wait forever until the right March has come 🙏💯😭

Some of the kindest souls that have ever graced the K-pop industry that CLEARLY didn't deserve them. Not to mention the talent, charisma and the undeniable visuals.

I miss nuest so badly

I really hope they can reunite again one day 😭 I miss them together so much. It's just not the same now.

NU'EST will comeback in the future, no one can stop them from shining and their love for each other is so unique that someday they will give us an amazing surprise. I trust them

Wouldn’t it be nice if NU’EST arose again like a phoenix rising from the ashes💕wishing all members a joyous, happy life💕full of luv n happiness 💕they may be out of the spotlight now, but they will never be forgotten 💕luv n respect always NU’EST💕🫰😊🥰

Since the disbanded announcement I never like nor believe the company(ies) at all. Add with the strong reason from Mingi in TKCP makes me want to hug them all. NU'EST deserve to be together for a long time. I wish that NU'EST could be together again in the new agency. 🙏🏼🙏🏼

I can’t imagine how they felt (or still feel). Thanks for the video, since I also found it odd 😢

YESSSSS Thank you for making this! Nu'est was one of the few boy groups that I have liked and I stanned since 2013, I was sooo sad when they disbanded 😩 I hope they can reunite soon.

Not a fan of Gfriend or NU'EST, but grow up listening to their music and watching them on variety shows. This is absolutely heartbreaking and honestly ridiculous how both groups are basically forced to an end. Hope they get to reunite someday in the future and actually be like Shinhwa. Can't imagine what the members and fans have been through and are probably still going through.

I'm still optimistic that we'll be seeing each other again in Spring next year.

Nu’est road was really rough..

Thank you for making the video! I'm still so heartbroken over everything

They are the 1st ever kpop group ive ever liked and theyre the ones making me enter into that world Since hybe acquainted pledis, i always thought they were just litteraly put apart by the company and hybe instead overworked their other artists like seventeen (2 korean albums, 1 or 2 japanese albums a year and a world tour at the same time) Honestly, i wasnt suprised when the disbandement was announced, i knew it would happen just like gfriend because of the mistreatement they got by the company But i still cant accept it tho, we can only hope for their comeback in the future :(

I will express my opinion on this subject, in reality it seems that they were forced to disband because of the company's stupid decisions 🤦‍♀️ At the beginning of 2022 they were planning for the future and it seemed that they wanted to renew the contract, but after meeting the company it seems that it forced them to disband or offered them to be single🤦‍♀️ 💔 Really, nu'est deserves the best, but the two companies did not offer them much, nor good promotion, nor make them go to various shows and programs, and there are members who do not get opportunities to shine, and this is very painful! Now even though they are separated and it breaks my heart, they still have opportunities to shine and show off their talents. NU'EST will get together again in the future because they are a group that has a very strong relationship with each other and it is impossible to separate them for a long time

I still kinda wish that this is not true🥲I grew up with Nu'est, I discovered them in 2012, I was 9 now I'm 19. But I will support each one of the members endlessly, no matter what❣️

thank you for this. i had fallen out of the loop with kpop due to school (and to keep my sanity), but only recently decided to get back into it and my heart broke after learning about the disbandment news. i fell hard for nu'est after p101 and ulted jonghyeon. i do hope to see them smiling and shining again together under one name whether it takes 5 years or 50 years.

This video make me cry again 😭😭. I miss them so much. And i'm still waiting for seeing NU'EST again. L.O.V.E forever ♥️🎶

I'm with you. I watched them grow up. I remember watching their debut TV show . Ren kept hiding in the building while they were playing hide and seek. And then Ren brings a literal pink plastic princess wand on a camping trip. And when they hosted MTV korea the minigame where baekho and Ren were trying to blow up balloons really fast and Baekho was slower so he swatted Ren's balloon and Ren made angry hamster noises trying to get his balloon back. It seems absolutely crazy to me that they are gone now... They always seemed so happy together... I will never forget them...

Not just LOVE, the whole nation was confused about the disbandment. What's funnier about the situation is that they gain newbie fans after Again released but these people didn't know a sh!t that Needle & bubble would be their last album. I swear their parting situation left mixed-up feelings (except joy)

I am still hoping they reunite someday. I'm still supporting every member while waiting, and I can see that they're doing really well. Thank you for this video, fellow LO∧E

I think it’s time to accept that HYBE and Big Hit are two different companies and are behaving that way.

i believe NU'EST and LOVES will reunited again in future. In the meantime, stay safe and healthy everyone!!

The "last, but certainly not least", is a very important point and was executed perfectly🙌💕 I miss them as a team so much but am happy to be able to support them individually right now.

Really appreciate it!!! Thanks for making this video ❤ once loves will always loves

I hope Nuest has the power like Got7 did. I hope they reunite àgain one day.

I'm sad I was not able to see NU'EST at a concert because their best years also collided with COVID-19 :(

😭😭 bring back our NU’EST 😭😭

I saw baekho celebrated an 11th anniversary on his Instagram in March. Idk if they were all together or if it was just for his debut anniversary but it gave me hope 😭

I'm a buddy and their situation breaks my heart the same way Gfriend's disbandment did. I'm 100% sure Pledis and source would have kept them if the weren't acquired.

I have heard about NU'EST before because of my friends but I was too busy in school and starting out there as a young adult. When I was ready to stan them, they disbanded. It broke my heart but Im still happy that they are still friends. I'm just wondering what if I stanned them earlier? Maybe I was able to make more memories with their music and loving fandom.

I had enjoyed your Nu'est doc and this one is just as excellent. Love the shout out to our Korean Cowboys channel. I hope they can get together and perform at least once, Again. I will forever cherish Nu'est 💕

Thank you so much!! This is such a greatly made video. I hope more people find this and learn about NU'EST and how they got their career taken away from them.

9:11 yeah tell me about it .. anyways, let me put emotions aside and discuss first. You know, financial profit is just another "face value" reason or just one of the reasons to screw our boys only. The head company (I don't even want to mention that label) was so eager to strip the NU'EST's title of "the-most-senior-group-in-the-label-chain", and remove the image of "the-10-year-old-group-with-all-full-member-still-standing" from our boys for some reasons clearly. Even though the international fandom is not huge, all NU'EST's oversea concerts are sold well, the merchandise are being ordered world wide with great sales still. Plus our boys are more on solo schedule in their senior years and selling well on solo activities. Aron is so rare gem who can speak English like no one. Baekho can be a producer and solo singer. JR, Ren and Minhyun have promising acting paths. NU'EST is a group that members are doing well on their own alone in solo as well. So financial reason alone is a little bit lame. There's some policy for priority of the image etc are involved for sure. Well just my personal opinion thou.

HYBE: Let's disband two popular groups that make us tons of money! I was only a casual fan of gfriend and nu'est, but their disbandments were always very fishy and random to me, something definitely went down, I can't wait for a tell-all book once those NDA' start to end.

Thank you for making this video!

Ive been a fan since day 1. This breaks my love for kpop. I'm so tired of watching talented guy and gals work themselves to exhaustion, just to have corporate bs on everything. I pray these guys can find away to get what they want together and that no one hurts themselves because of depression. We have lost far too many from depression.

Since 2010, I only follow 5 groups, in which 2 have disbanded, 1 lost some members, and the rest are my ultimate Gfriend and Nuest. I never supported the decision to pull those two groups into that label just because a hunch. My hunch was correct, that label finally ruined my ulti. I have never liked groups as much as I love them! Can you imagine the feeling of having both your ultimate groups got ruined just like that? 😤😤

Thank you for the video, and it still hurts so much 😭

I spent 10 years supporting them, and I'll always support their individual activities. It's a miracle to make 10 years after almost disbanding! They stayed together because they never gave up on them as 5. As soon as they joined hybe I had a terrible feeling! Hybe is definitely DID NOT offer them a contract as 5

I remember when they first came out, Loved them so much. And waited for the next songs to come out. 😥😢. Miss them so much.

This broke my heart AGAIN... But thank you for your effort and explanation... Let's hope they will come back to us...

Thank you for this video 🤍🤍

i love nu'boys since 2012, i believe they are not disbanded. they are just going hiatus to have "a short summer camp" to grow their individual skills. my hope, they will coming back after 4 dongsaengs back from military service. Aron hyung will always support his dongsaengs. they will back stronger. a loyal L.O.V.E here.

Remember to always be nice even though the world is cruel against us. That's actually one of the things NU'EST taught me. Despite being laughed on and received countless hates especially when they joined pd101, and up until now that they disbanded and are trying to work hard on their own. Despite them keeping their chin up, many haters would still flock on them. Calling them names, insulting their group that they badly protected. But never once they heard them bad mouth the people who stepped on them, and that's make me more proud as a fan. I haven't move on and I know it will take longer to accept the disbandment, but I know we will see NU'EST again in the future. That's for sure.

sad after the company get big., thats the time they disband. the company can even sign them up with all the money they got.

I really appreciate you making this video! I sobbed so bad because, although NU"EST's effect in the Kpop industry is incredibly significant, it is not discussed as much as that of other Kpop groups

The group had class. I was disappointed with the dirt on stage shortly before the disband.

Such an informative video... I am really wondering what happened behind the scenes!

Thank you so much for making this!!! It really helped me feel better!!! 🙏😭💖 Their story is so tragic and it hurts me so much but it always warms my heart and comforts me to hear how much they treasure NU'EST 🥺🥺💖💖💖 Also can you pls share the links for the stuff you cited in the description? 🙏 I'd like to see them and journal them 💖🥺

Hybe is a really shitty company. Disbandment of NU'EST and Gfriend was very heartbreaking. They don't treat their current groups properly either for example, I stan TXT and I have been observing the company overworks them so much. During the promotions of their Thursday's child album the members told that they hadn't slept for 40hrs due to tight schedule. They are humans not robots. They need rest. Their tour was also very hectic that one member fell sick and other had a nosebleed while performing. Hybe treats only BTS well, they don't seem to care about other groups. I am afraid Fromis_9 might disband too due to the reasons stated in this video. I saw one comment saying that Seventeen are also overworked. Many people think that Hybe treats its artists really well but get out of this misconception. No company in kpop is good. All groups go through some sort of mistreatment in their careers and we better realize this dark side of the industry.

Gracias por el video 🥺❤

GFriend and Nuest story are the reason why I hate that company. They treat the artist like a product which has an expired date. That's so not healthy. If the reason is because they aren't quite popular which makes them can't survive, then I won't complained. But that's not what happened with GFriend and Nuest. The company must be thought that both were just like an expired product and want to replace them with a new one. Show how capitalist they are.

I’m a Monbebe I have friends who are Love and I remember when the news came out I was even confused about it

Thank you for making this video🙏

What else could be the reason? When Pledis got acquired by Hybe, I was not sure and kind of scared for Nu'est seeing the direction of that company and other reasons. Hybe is definitely having the global market in mind since they made it with BTS. As artists honestly Nu'est can't go against their decision. I am just sad and upset that they couldn't even give them a proper final album. I cried everytime I watched the last MV. Thank you for making this video and as you said we just hope there will be a way for us to meet Nu'est again in the future. Cheer up and best wishes to everyone.

I agree 100% about HYBE. If this was a group I'd been following, I'd be heartbroken too. It is greed, pure greed that is HYBE's agenda and what dictates the direction they are going. I have seen many things I dislike, especially with the group I stan. All in all, it has long been my opinion that Korea is in great need of an Entertainment Union for Artists....a LEGIT one....no one should have to train so hard and be treated so poorly just to be dropped like they are worthless and often left in debt. ARMY grandma

Can we please cancel HYBE already? They disbanded Gfriend. They disbanded Nu'est. They mismanaged Kim Garam's situation and kicked her out when she didn't do anything wrong. They debuted literal minors and released a statement trying to gaslight the public into thinking that they are the weird ones for being worried about these children. Like, they are not doing ONE thing right!

LAY YOU DID NOT INCLUDE THE INSTRUMENTALS OF SPRING AGAIN IN THE END IM CRYING NOW

Woah...this video is so...U say that I think. And the end is perfect, and I wish see this march. Thanks for U work

I hope they all are alright and in good terms with each other and that they'll achieve whatever each of them wishes for in the future

Got7 stayed together even from different agencies. I've faith that one day, the members could do this as well. I know it's unlikeable, but it can happen, and I'm sure both Baekho and Minhyun would love to reunite with JR, Ren and Aron.

I was just about to join the fandom when I heard the were going to disband, it shocked me bc I new they were a big group in SK. I was really sad and can only imagine how they felt about it when they had to do as they were said. And yes **** hybe

Hybe is literally destroying all the 3rd gen groups 😮‍💨

Man, I was really happy when these boys started promoting again as a group only to hear them disbanding. 😢
