Watching Minx always makes me appreciate JiU more. This cute concept clearly fits her personality so easily and naturally. Her ability to adapt to Dreamcatcher's concept is amazing.

As well as the girls did w/ this concept, it was the darkest time in their career, unfortunately, especially after they disbanded. Dami tried to run away, Siyeon was depressed and considered giving up singing, and when DC debuted, she wore pants for years and would only wear shorts or dresses if it was a stage outfit the whole group was wearing. Sua said she’d never cut her hair again, and it took her years just to dye it again. After they disbanded, they often cried themselves to sleep. I can’t imagine the amount of pressure Jiu must’ve felt at that time as their leader. That’s why it was so cathartic to see her reaction during their first win. They went through even more as DC, and are still pretty shunned by the K-pop industry, but they’re finally starting to reach big milestones this year like being invited to their first award show and performing at Primavera. They were the only K-pop act invited. They’re 300,000 album sales away from being the 2nd (if I’m not mistaken) million album seller from a small company. The first was GFriend.

Wish I could find it for myself though :/ Not sure if you've already seen it, but recently they performed Love Shake at their Broken Halloween concert, so it looks like they've finally gotten over their depression from that era.

Yoohyeon and Dami were finishing school when WDYCTMH was released (Fall 2014). There is the cutest clip with the members going to her graduation (Google Dreamcatcher Yoohyeon graduation). Love Shake came out later in the Summer of 2015. Minx Dami was the cute maknae. This explains why Dreamcatcher Dami is different (not the maknae anymore). Gahyeon took that role in DC. Fan fact: WDYCTMH was actually a big hit in Korea. However, nobody knew who sang it....

The thing is, Minx wasn't even bad quality-wise. Whenever I see reactions, everyone vibes with the songs although they didn't expect it. Happyface has a good eye for talent and they know it. After their failure, the CEO said that it wasn't the member's fault and that he would buy them a café or work at a farm (don't know which one is true or if both are true, I heard both) to provide for them. So as much as this hasn't worked out and we try to be respectful towards the members, I really trust Happyface. They made some unusual decisions for an entertainment company. Redebuting them was so savage, maybe they were just really desperate. But I 100% respect this choice (even if Dreamcatcher wasn't successful their debut is just so bold). Love Shake is a remake of their sister group Dalshabet 's song. The rash guards (scuba) were actually the CEO's idea and I think they're the most cute and unique outfits to ever exist in kpop. Another confession, Love Shake is definitely in my playlist😳They have at least 10 other songs in their discography that are almost unknown so check that out. You should watch a stage for WDYCTMH too bc Siyeon is hitting that whistle note live every time... Oh btw SuA HATES that hair, it's her personal nemesis. She never cut and dyed her hair ever since (to this extreme, she had red ish and pink ish and blonde ish for Maison). If you want to get some more insights, I'm sure someone already recommended "Dodging disbandment and other extreme sports" by Mera. Also insomnicsy has at least one video highlighting their relationship with their staff, they're all a big family.

For a little bit of background on Happyface I highly suggest watching the following video which shows parts of the selection process for MIXNINE. It shows how they care, how hard it was for them to watch the selection process and you get a glimpse how different must be compared to at least one other major company (in this case YG). It focuses on the male trainees so there is almost nothing from Dreamcatcher members in this video but we see the well known practice room. 😉 kzfaq.info/get/bejne/eNpllsx6q6vLoqs.html

@@j.w.u.5728 oh this sounds interesting, thank you. I'm actually so curious how a new group is formed and how everything works behind the scenes. I think the very simple reason why Minx ultimately failed was bc of the small company (and ok, HF didn't promote the perfectly too but still). If you see rookie groups nowadays and compare which company their from, the ones from the big 4 are so much more successful it's ridiculous. I also heard rumors that HF is building or training a new gg so let's just hope they don't repeat their mistakes. But then again they'll probably also need years of hard work to be recognised bc they're from a small company. Or maybe we'll get Dreamcatcher 2.0 with a re-debut after 2 years😂

Lee Juwon said he'd start a _cucumber company_ for them if Dreamcatcher didn't make it... I have no idea where he got the idea for cucumbers from, but let's face it, they're _all_ an odd bunch over there... 😜 Regarding SuA's hair, she _has_ dyed it quite a few times, but for the most part it's always been fairly subtle, like dark reds or purples. She did go almost blonde for Deja Vu, though, so Maison wasn't _quite_ the first time. She does have to be careful, though, because she seems to have particularly fragile hair, so she can't really bleach it too often anyway. The closest she's come to cutting it that short again was when she adopted a Hime cut (short at the front, long at the back) when she did the Tadow performance video, to match Seungyeon's. Seungyeon was so impressed, she suggested SuA should try cutting it as short as the front all over; SuA shot that idea down _immediately_ 😂

The CEO of Happyface admitted later on that the group failed because the company did not promote or support them properly. There was no album with their debut, the comeback with Love Shake was delayed, and the song itself was a cover of a song originally done by Dalshabet, Happyface's 2ng gen girl group. I think that if Minx had been with one of the big Kpop companies then they would be like Twice is today, but then we wouldn't have Dreamcatcher. Sua's hair. After Minx Sua swore she would never cut her hair again and she hasn't. She hated it.

Minx's fail was mostly because they were at the end of the 'cutesy' era and were pretty much against groups like Red Velvet, Twice, Mamamoo, Girls Generation. Minx didn't stick out from the pack with their songs and MVs. Their songs are good but in comparison to other groups who had a newer appeal, they got overshadowed.

At some point you are also going to get to see the CEO of their company, CEO-nim. He's really like an uncle to the girls, and his wife is the president of the company, so it's really like a family. There were two interesting quotes from him about Minx. In the first one, he said that the failure of Minx wasn't the girls's fault, it was the company's fault. When have you ever heard a CEO say something like that? And in the second, he said if Dreamcatcher would fail as well, he would become a cucumber farmer to support the girls. Dreamcatcher is what the girls really wanted to do. I think you can feel that, and it is only right that this brought success for them. Even the first single already sold double of what Minx sold.

Brave Girls is kinda anomaly but they became famous using a song from 2016, which is why I still put them in 3rd gen. but dreamcatcher's most famous song was 2020's Boca, which is when the era of 4th gen is making it's mark. Boca also sounded like 4th gen. i don't like using Minx to determine what gen dreamcatcher is because tht would leave handong and gahyeon out.

I think even the first five have now reconciled themselves to that past and embraced the era. Minx got a shout out in the good Kdrama Idol: the Coup last year where the group was mentioned as being the one that was plagiarized from by the first producer of the central idol group in the series. Someone in the writer's room was an InSomnia, or, at least, in the know.

Fun fact: Love Shake remains one of their best known songs in Korea since it's used a lot in Home Shopping Channels. The thing is the song is well known but the group isn't bc it sounds and looks too much like most of the stuff that was coming out at the time. There's also the problem that Happyface Ent is a small company that is genius at content and concept creation but not as good at marketing (and managing). Whatever the reason we can all agree that the switch to Dreamcatcher was amazing and while it was hard for some of them (Jiu + Yoo) it was the best for others (Sy + Dami) I'm happy you're planning to check Dodging Disbandment, usually people stan even harder after watching that

Minx was the typical cutesy, bubble gum pop, which many groups were already into. The reason why Minx failed is because they were up against some bigger girl groups like Red Velvet, Twice, Mamamoo, GFriend, among others. During Minx era, most were very young, and Dami was the maknae. The girls were pretty uncomfortable with the concept as a whole, especially Siyeon, Dami and SuA. When HappyFace Entertainment decided to pull the plug on Minx, the most affected by the disbandment were Siyeon, Dami and Yoohyeon. Siyeon's mental health was so badly affected that she did not leave her room for weeks and even didn't even wish to do music. She and Yoohyeon would often spend hours at gaming cafés. SuA hated her Minx look badly too with the short, blonde hair and skimpy outfits. It hit them so hard that Siyeon and Dami used to have flashbacks whenever there was mention of Minx. The girls that you see now as Dreamcatcher are more truer to their respective personalities and preferences. The company also gives a lot of freedom and instills faith in the girls, which reflects in their music and life as idols. Also the girls are mature and sensible, having lived with and /or known each other for years.

They were on par vocally with Red Velvet and Mamamoo, who also debuted in 2014, but their concept was everywhere and tbh there were still 2nd gen artists who were slaying as well as early 3rd gen artists.

Minx was part of their concept for Dreamcatcher in that Minx was their dream and that they went into (of course they didn't plan that). Their nightmare was being trapped in those cutie concept Kpop genre and that they were trying to break & escape from it as Dreamcatcher and free themselves from such stereotype eventually. We have to give credit to their company however as rebranding a KPop group rarely happen and I've seen a lot of talented groups disbanded early such as the amazing group Hot Issue recently.

Recently Dami joined in the fooling around while singing love shake. Siyeon still doesn't like it though, she'll usually step away or just ignore people when they are singing the songs. It's not a good period for them, the failure weighed on them. JiU started questioning her ability as a leader, Dami and Yoohyeon were underage with the video being uncomfortably sexual and Siyeon stopped listening to music entirely post hiatus. She still has a visceral reaction to it being mentioned. Particularly love shake but she'll tolerate her members joking about it and even likes some of their bsides. When the girls did a reddit ama last year they had to ban any questions relating to minx.

Love shake is a song I have to be in the mood for to listen to it, but why did you come to my home is a whole bop and honestly I’m not keen on rewatching the two mvs due to the amount of shots focused on their legs and their butts. It actually made me feel a bit uncomfortable due to I think Dami still being underage at the time

Yes!!! Your reaction to MINX is so great! I love seeing people who get into Dreamcatcher when they realize this is how they started. You're right, they are so talented that they can flip their concept on a dime and absolutely kill it. Also, shout out to Happyface/Dreamcatcher Entertainment for not doing what most agencies would have and force them to go more adult and scandalous just for the views and quick cash grab. They really believed in their talent and the darker rock sound was the cold water splash in the face that fans needed to wake up and realize what they had been sleeping on.

All the ex-Minx members really don't like remembering these times. Probably bc the concept didn't suit them and it didn't really take off. But both Handong and Gahyeon really enjoy the songs and tease them about that era a lot. We joke a lot about Siyeon having war flashbacks whenever Minx is mentionned, so we try not to tease them too much as fans to not cause them any discomfort. But to be honest, I have discovered Love Shake after stanning them and I unironically enjoy the song. It reminds me of older kpop songs, and the song is good. I think most of the fandom looks at Minx the way you'd look at a old drawing you made as a child : it's not as good as your drawing skills as an adult, but there's something endearing about it.

It's not that the songs are bad, but I think that the market for this was oversaturated at the and they had some bad luck on timing. I still think of Dreamcatcher as a 'new' group but it's wild to think that they are really of the same vintage as (or actually slightly older than) Lovelyz (recently disbanded), Oh My Girl (just lost a member at contract renewal time), GFRIEND (recently and suddenly disbanded), April (recently disbanded) TWICE, Red Velvet, etc. Not to mention the juggernaut that was (and still is) BTS. Dreamcatcher's CEO said "it wasn't the girls who failed. We failed them." They believed in the girls and decided that instead of disbanding or just putting along in an overcrowded market, that they would try a radical approach. It is surprising how many groups fail or stay well well well below the radar. I think Minx could have continued, but I don't know if they would have broken out and we likely would have lost them to disbandment. Even some of the great groups from that era met surprising and sudden ends (RIP my beloved GFRIEND).

That aside, you can see the talent and potential was there, but the industry was too congested with this concept. Let me tell you, the VOCALS were always there from the start - if you check out some of their covers, my fave being Minx covering “End of Time” - Beyoncé - its so good!

I feel like all Insomnias felt this way the first time they saw MINX 🤣✨ Honestly, they changed concepts because it was the end of the cutesy era and they were being overshadowed by the more popular groups- however, when MINX comes up, half the members admit to this day they were absolutely miserable and hated MINX's music and concepts. I think Siyeon is always the loudest to talk about her MINX misery, and YooBin silently protests anything MINX when faced with it. Yoohyeon was also miserable and seems to silently protest like YooBin does, only with less animosity. Minji and Bora still have the same energy tbh, they are also the most open to MINX stuff when faced with it, they dont get mad or protest like the others, and lots of times they even make joke references (only to be ignored by other members when they do).

Ah, the Minx pilgrimage. Every InSomnia has to watch these two MVs at least once to get the culture shock. As much as the girls (mostly Siyeon) don't like to acknowledge Minx for the most part, I think it was formative for them on how to survive in the industry. Siyeon's solo song Paradise basically is her feelings about Minx and its failure. It was just market oversaturation at that point. When your competition at their debut are Red Velvet, Gfriend and Mamamoo, you're kinda screwed. The market was saturated and there was nowhere for Minx to go. Dreamcatcher, on the other hand...

Even if you don't include their MINX era, Dreamcatcher is mostly considered to be a Third Generation idol group (with groups like TWICE, Mamamoo, GFriend, Blackpink). Around that time, a whole of lot of girl groups either debuted or dropped "bigger" songs than the two. It was difficult for them to really stand out and get attention. But in a way, their fall as MINX was a blessing in disguise because it result in Dreamcatcher being born. This video does a great job in covering the group's history especially the MINX days. "Dodging Disbandment and Other Extreme Sports: A History of Dreamcatcher" by mera kzfaq.info/get/bejne/j6-XdqShmM-Vn6c.html It stops at the 2020 mark so it's not up to date but I think it's still a good video that manages to get the group's time up until then across very well. There have been moments where the original five members cringe whenever anything MINX-related is brought up. Handong and Gahyeon do enjoy it as there's a video of both dancing to Love Shake. Buuuutttt, it seems nowadays the five are more "accepting" of their dark past as there's a recent vlog of them singing "Love Shake" for fun cause Dami started playing it on her phone. Technically, Dreamcatcher did sorta went back to the summer cute aesthetic last year when they did the photoshoot for their mini-album, "Summer Holiday"; the album BEcause is on. In a behind the scenes video, Dami commented that she hasn't smiled in a photoshoot in a long time which is probably a reference to her MINX days

Sua totally hates her hair in minx 🤣 She has mentioned multiple times that she wil never do short hair anymore hahahaha Also, Minx's songs are BOP! But even I never run into their songs when I was active back then. That's probably because there were SO many major releases back then especially debuts by red velvet, gfried, twice, etc. Like I kinda knew they existed but never really heard their songs. Also variety shows were a big thing back then too but they never really get invited. A little bit regretful but thankfully I managed to discover Dreamcatcher when they debuted so I'm glad. Dodging Disbandment by Mera is not updated for 2020 onwards but it definitely gives you an insight to their early days and the tea that happened, so enjoy!

Your reaction is so refreshing! For a long time there was a segment of the fandom that were outraged at the Minx concept. The 'how dare they make them look cute and have booty shots it's so demeaning to women!' You know who I'm talking about. The truth is they were very good at being Minx. It's true that it wasn't the type of music that Siyeon and Dami wanted to do, but Jiu, Yoohyeon, and Sua were perfectly happy with it to the point that Jiu said it took her a long time to get used to not smiling on stage as Dreamcatcher. They were all devastated by the failure because they worked so hard as Minx. If you dig deeper you'll find the kind of hell that new Kpop groups go through. They were everywhere in Seoul performing wherever anyone would give them space. Race tracks, sports stadiums, shopping malls, small sleazy music halls, outdoor public spaces along the Han River.

There has still been some busking as DreamCatcher, though, so it is not all about Minx having done that. Sera Ryu was at one point the leader of the K-Pop group Nine Muses. She has her own YT channel and in one of her videos, Sera got to interview DC right before they went to do some busking (either at a Train Station or Bus Station or maybe it was a Shopping Mall...). Sera got all dressed up including hair and makeup by her favorite stylist for this interview, she LOVED the girls before meeting them and Dami is Sera's bias! That entire video was FUN! :)

Sorry this sounds confusing but I just remember her saying different things. She did really well in the cute concept and maybe she had a hard time with rock, but at the same time she stated somewhere that she and Siyeon like Babymetal.

i believe 2014 would be the start of 3rd Gen. Part of the reason Minx didn't succeed was the competition the were up against. Mamamoo, Red Velvet, Lovelyz and LABOOM all debuted this year. not to mention 2NE1 released one of their highest charting albums in "Crush". Then in 2015 Red Velvet gets their fifth and final member in Yeri. CLC, Gfriend, Oh My Girl and Twice debuted. Amber (f(x)), Mina (Girls Day), Taeyeon (Girls Generation) and Sera Ryu (9 Muses)(disclaimer, I'm a big Sera Ryu fan and one of a very few I support on patreon😘Love ya Sera) all made their solo debuts this year also. As you can see Minx had some VERY tough competition, especially in the cutsie/bubble gum pop genre. Mera's "Dodging Disbandment and other Extreme Sports" touches on this and other hardships the girls went through and how they overcame them, even after they re-debuted as Dreamcatcher. cheers EDIT: Sera Ryu is the unofficial/official InSomnia president😇 JiU was 20 and 21 respectively. SuA was also 20 and 21. SuA has said she would never go back to that bob cut LOL. Siyeon was 19 and 20 (this era is also the reason Siyeon hates short shorts). Yooyeon was 17 and 18. Dami was also 17 and 18.
