[theqoo] LEGENDARY MALE IDOL TALKS ABOUT THE ILLUSION OF A SOLO IN A GROUP

Kangta: 

- The majority of the fans will be divided into individual fans

- Actually, if you go solo, a lot of fans will leave

- I had to stand on my own and I felt like my strength was reduced by 1/10th..!

- I actually get envious of seeing Shinhwa still promoting as a full group 

- Although I'm the bigger sunbae, I want to go back to showcasing a more perfect side of myself

Kang Hodong: You didn't lose your roots right?

Kangta: I lost it when we had H.O.T's 3rd arlbum. At that time, I've gotten a lot more c*cky.. 

- If we had 1M H.O.T fans, once we disbanded, my fans got reduced to 1/5th, so 200K fans!

- You'd think that half of the H.O.T fans will help out for my solo?

- But after disbanding and going solo, I realized that the reality, under 10% of H.O.T fans stuck around

1. If you're not someone who's born with star factor, you will never succeed as a solo 

2. If you're still in your group and go solo, some fans might support you, but even this is hard. They will not just support you for the sake of supporting you. And if you're a total nobody? If you're not IU, it'll be hard to gather any fans 

3. We like you because you're A in a group, we will not like you as A as a solo. And if your music is bad, the fans will all leave

4. I bet most idols are aware of this. They should know this better than us 

5. I really hope every idol realizes this

6. Me too, I had a bias in a group, but I wouldn't like them as a solo

7. This is the reason why no matter how much we hate, BTS Suga will never withdraw

8. Me too, I used to like my bias in their group...

9. It's not even 10%. But even successful solos like GD and Lee Hyori are still with their group

10. If you look at BTS, you can see why being in a group is more powerful
