Its a problem in the Kpop world and I will explain why. In a year over 50 groups debut some we don't even hear about, of those 50 groups only about 20 will be able to pay off their debt to their agency and out of those 20 only 10 will actually make money and have money to live off of after idol fame is over.
Problem is individual identity. This would of been a better selection as a predebut track than after Happiness because now you have a conflict of identity. Is SM trying for them to be the S.E.S or trying to keep them their own fresh color. The same very thing I bitched about last week when it came down to why I don't like Red Velvet. They should of released an original song with an original concept for their second single and later added this as a pre-release for their album.
