At some point in that time, the group decided to take matters into their own hands and began learning how to make their own music. In an interview with IZE Magazine in 2015, leader S.Coups said it was frustrating seeing their debut being postponed as they practiced every day like they were going to debut the next month. With the company facing financial difficulties prior to the launch of the new boy group, their initial debut set for 2013 got pushed back multiple times, which led some trainees to leave the company before debuting. The live streaming show went on for five seasons in the span of two years and showed the trainees as they went through the training process in the company’s iconic “Melona” green practice room. The world was first introduced to the trainees through Seventeen TV which was streamed on UStream. The Prolonged Road To DebutĪlthough SEVENTEEN debuted in 2015, their journey started back in 2012 when Pledis Entertainment posted on their YouTube channel a video titled Seventeen TV, hinting at the debut of a new boy group in the company. Despite being larger than your average K-Pop group with 13 members, they are recognized for being one of the most synchronized acts and have rightfully earned the title of being the “K-Pop Performance Powerhouse." The path to success hasn’t been the easiest when faced with many roadblocks, but with a strong sense of teamwork and enough passion to literally destroy a stage floor during a performance, SEVENTEEN have become one of the most well-known and respected idol groups in the industry today. Being heavily involved in all creative aspects of the group from music to choreography isn’t the only impressive thing under SEVENTEEN’s repertoire. SEVENTEEN aren’t the first idol to self-produce, but they help normalize the notion that idols should be able to show their artistry and be celebrated for it. With all 13 members known to have contributed to the group’s creative process since their debut in 2015, it’s no surprise that the Korean media and general public have given them the title of “자체제작 아이돌” (Self-Produced Idol). I truly hope something good/positive can come from this all but right now everything is upsetting.When talking about “self-producing idols," one group that most certainly can’t be left out of the discourse is none other than SEVENTEEN. I want everyone to have an idea of what’s going on with nu’est and to please show them a lot of love and support because It feels like no one (outside of the nu’est fans who do know) is paying much attention to this. I’m gonna and see wait what all becomes of this because it’s upsetting that these things are happening with no answers or clarification (There’s apparently more stuff that has been going on behind the scenes as well). I’m gonna post a few major accusations/points that were made from the original post made in their fancafe (it can be found on instiz), the translations can be here provided by limetree66044 ![]() The main objective for this is to get feedback from Pledis and better treatment for Nu’est ![]() Hardly anyone is talking about what’s going on right now. Honestly this is really upsetting to me because the situation is important and shouldn’t be ignored. There’s recently been talk about Nu’est being mismanaged and getting unfair treatment from Pledis/ Their Japanese company among their kfans to the point where a petition was made. Nymphea who wrote a post for us on her blog, (Yuzuru Hanyu Latinoamérica) who spread the word to Spanish-speaking fans, the awesome fans who brought the message to weibo, and many more who retweeted, reposted, told their friends… without whom, surely, such an outpour of support would have been impossible! So much gratitude for the people who helped spread the word. ![]() Thankfully, with such lovely people in the team and kind help from friends and within the fandom, it all came together in 25 days with little setback. The project was on such a large scale, and carried the thoughts of so many of us, there was little time to spare and little space to mess up. ゆづ、もっともっと強く / Yuzu, be stronger and stronger The banner was delivered safely to the Cricket Club in Toronto on Dec 5, 2017. A total of 830 messages from all over the world came through to us, and this little banner grew from the initially planned 2x1m, to 2.4x1.2m, and then finally, triple that, to 7.2x1.2m. In the following five days, we were floored and honored by the outpour of support. ![]() We put out a call for fan messages to print onto one big banner for Yuzuru when his withdrawal from the NHK Trophy was announced on Nov 10, 2017.
