lol I don't remember seeing this on my flist. Might have to check my eyes :P
xD I'm not worried about NEWS breaking up have enough to deal with on the DBSK front. But the inactivity is slightly worrying. Even if JE groups these days don't break up, as they get older the activity level does decrease quite a lot. Of course, after the comeback NEWS has never really been as active as other groups even when they actually have stuff to promote so ... :x idk.
On the flipside, I guess NEWS fans got spoiled in 2008 - 3 singles, completely unexpected album, two tours, 1 concert DVD. So I guess something had to give in 2009. lol if they don't get a tour or singles in 2010 ... then I'd started worrying for real if JE's forgotten about them.
that would be a very strange group :D other than Matsujun, that group seems really plausible because they were all popular jrs at the same time. I bet it's one of the combinations Johnny-san tossed about for a debut. And a Jun-Toma-Pi-Ryo group wouldn't have surprised me either ... can see it working.
Hee right now, it probably seems strange because of the established groupings, but really, Johnny could have debuted any combination of these guys and made it sell. xD; reminds me of the rumour that TxT + Subaru + RyoPi were almost debuted together.
Actually, there probably still would be a popularity gap-- it would develop eventually. It's like HSJ's situation. They debuted most of the popular Heisei era Juniors, and a popularity gap still developed between Yamada and the rest.
