The timing seems really sus... it seems like another debut to cover up a controversy, just like RV was to f(x) and SNSD drama

Lmao SM kings of debuting a new girl group whenever a scandal hits! No, don't look at the scandal, look at this new shiny thing in front of you! Your faves could never have the level of impact that kween Irene has.

In all seriousness, so many people jokingly said that SM was gonna do this, and not even a week later it has happened. 2020 is just an alternative universe that acts as a parody of the real one.
