I'm not that surprised. KQ/Seven Seasons wasn't ever that great at promoting the boys and getting them individual opportunities. They weren't terrible (they were better than Stardom), but there were a lot of things they could have done better. The members themselves used to do a better job of promoting Block B and their activities than the company did. It was only after Ateez came along that the promotions got a bit better, but by then Block B as a group was already on hiatus.
