Yup. This seems to be a trend now where companies give groups a one shot or lose it all type of deal. Like 4Minute was rumored to release Hate as a last chance to redeem themselves (even though it doesn't make much sense since Crazy was so popular) but Hate didn't do well so they disbanded.

Ohh wow im glad up and down made it! and omg but 4MINUTE is like since 2009.... that's a long time and they have many fans, it's just that some songs don't go as planned >.< I think the reason why Hate didn't do so well it's bc the song kinda sounded weird (yet good) you know what i mean? like the chorus part just sounded out of place.. anyways i think if the company were to give last chances, they need to make sure the song is exceptional

Their previous singles such as Every Night, I feel good and etc are good but failed. So they tried Dasoni unit and it failed even harder. Nothing worked! Up and Down was their last release before disbandment. They once said that they were trying to enjoy every moment when they performed Up and Down in every occasions. On Street, on army bases, on campus events or any shitty/random locations. In the sun, rain or snow. Cuz every event can be their last stage. I think that's why their live/fancams are awesome. They treated every performence as their last day.

woooow that's impressive :O how do fancams even get viral enough to bring like groups out of the dark....

wonderboy47 jingwang • Saturday, June 18, 2016

They have a Hani who has that it factor. haha

I heard that because Cube entertainment had been taken over by a new CEO. He decided that 4Minute wasn't profitable (both crazy and Hate did exceptionally well overseas, but not so much in SK) , their abulms didn't sell enough. That why they released everyone but Hyunah, who is making crazy money for them. It was also said that the rest of the group wanted to resign, but weren't allowed to do. And if UP&DOWN hadn't done so well, same wouldve happened to them, I'm afaid. Luckily, they did well ^^

they are not popular??? why??

pixipix shirayukihime • Friday, June 17, 2016

they are popular?look at their digital sales they flop in music charts after up and down in ever comeback more and more 1 ,2 ,5 ,7 they can not reach number one in music charts their album sales also is not on point yes they are not popular

peladocarlos pixipix • Friday, June 17, 2016

I don't know if you can call a flop being nº1 on various TV shows, also music charts are always manipulated, specially in Korea, maybe they are not the 'most' popular girl group, but they are a popular one... In any case, no matter what you can say, I will still support them. Besides, being nº1 on music charts it's only important to record labels because it's a sign of good sales, not popularity.

WillWonka pixipix • Friday, June 17, 2016

Fool they won on music shows 1st and popularity is not always base on music release . Up and down is still on charts together with hot pink . And hani is still very demand on tv shows .

pixipix WillWonka • Friday, June 17, 2016

dopey they won because the comeback in right time if they comeback was in the same time with twice they could not win also hot pink is not in melon or gaon right now and their promotional song floped in melon haha

If EXID exchange the agency with twice , they will get No.1 more than 10

Sophia393 pixipix • Saturday, June 18, 2016

btw, if twice was in Banana Culture, and they published the album at the bad time, and Twice will get nothing.

Sophia393 pixipix • Saturday, June 18, 2016

I am really sorry about that popular girl group who are you like and love, unfortunately they does not have any outstanding, capability singers, and they have neither excellent rapper nor composer, but they have a big agency whom can spent a lot of money to promote for them, lucky them

MarcHan07 pixipix • Thursday, August 18, 2016

They're not popular? You must be kidding me XD All of their songs starting from Up & Down all became #1 songs in music charts. Also they became the 6th girl group getting three consecutive #1's in a year. The other ones were SES, Fin.K.L, Wonder Girls, Girl's Generation, 2NE1, and now EXID. Also SES and FIN.K.L were first generation idol groups. The market was young and competition was scarce compared to 2015. But EXID come from an obscure company with little to nothing to show for. Slap that to your Twice!! Talentless excuse me but Solji won king of masked singer(pilot episode) and became king ( well queen SoulG <3)Hani also became second place. Solji also won the pilot episode of duet song festival and won again on another episode. Say that to your Twice! Tbh EXID is more talented than Twice. Twice only got 2 good singers and a dancer (not even half of the entire group and the others are just THERE...Twice only got popular of how hard they try to get cute. So please stop hating on EXID cause they're 1000000000000000x more talented than twice.

...From some videos, apparently some waiting rooms are are proper rooms (with doors, sofa, etc) and some waiting rooms are just made of partition walls with fabric covering as the door. So they turn one big empty space into many partition walls to accomodate less popular idols.

PinkBuddy JwanHyo • Friday, June 17, 2016

Maybe because they come from a small agency no one take then seriosly and Didnt care about EXID ,now everybody know who is exid and do everyrhing to make them comfortable

queenlala PinkBuddy • Friday, June 17, 2016

yeah If you're popular you get your own waiting room and People will approach you more and give you more care and attention and if you're not popular , they pay less attention to you and they make you share waiting rooms with other idols who aren't popular as well.

BXR119 JwanHyo • Friday, June 17, 2016

They (or nugu or groups from small agencies in general) share dressing room with 3 or 4 or more groups. Not enough chairs so everyone sit on the floor. like...high schcool kids..The rooms are usually far away from studio, too. Filming usually takes whole day...so it must sucks so bad for nugu. But groups from big agencies or popular groups got their own private dressing room with big sofa/TV and etc and very close to the studio so they don't have to walk too far or take elevator, If you watched pre Up and Down videos from EXID, they usually stay in big conference room with so many groups and dancers...Now TV stations gave them their own small dressing room.
