Victoria (and possibly f(x)) is a gold mine waiting to happen in China. Iirc Victoria's drama in 2012 did really well but SM didn't do much with that momentum.

Victoria's uber popular in China, it doesn't cease to amaze me that SM haven't bothered doing anything bigger with her there outside of a few solo activities.
They're probably scared of f(x) 'flopping' like they do in Korea.
China is desirable mainly due to endorsement fees for their artists (lee minho is a great example), touring also is going up, Hong Kong also has a huge other sectors that for YG to break into such as his fashion thing he is trying to do and why Jessica is launching Blanc out of Hong Kong and not Seoul
That's actually super interesting. Had no idea Jessica was launching her brand from HK rather than Seoul.

I don't think there's any harm in say f(x) or SNSD recording and releasing a Chinese mini and touring with it. Infact, since touring is where the money lies, SM sending f(x) out there could be their time to shine in terms of getting a solo tour finally.
Imagine if f(x) in China was what SNSD are in Japan.
