@Table122000 the trainee phase of KPOP is without guarantee of placement in the group. When they are a trainee - they have a trainee contract to my understanding. If you make it into the group, you get offered another contract as a member of the group.

 

Re BTS case, I think the management made the decision as to who the final members will be. I don’t think the trainees interview was actually member of BTS - just fellow trainees and yes, there could have been discussions to have more than the 7 members and these guys were considered at one point in time. BUT in the end, they went with the final 7. I don’t think these two guys ever were official members that were cut etc. 

Thank you for the explanation and information, @Yinye Much appreciated. I understand now.

I envy them (just a little he he) but it's about time... at least  in some other countries we did have a pop-up store for some of their merch.  I wonder whether it's easier to get their albums too this year.

Stay Alive is a beautiful song - I love it! Especially with headphones - the strings, guitar, drums, and of course JK’s vocals.

It is beautiful and sad.  Can't help  even without knowing the lyrics.

Produced by multi-faceted artist SUGA, “Stay Alive” is a cinematic pop-ballad that blends theatrical bass-synth and pensive string-piano arrangement, to construct a sentimental space for readers of the webtoon, allowing them to connect with character arcs. In a press statement, HYBE Corp. (BTS’ parent label) revealed that SUGA’s production was “based on the actual synopsis and webcomic sketch of 7FATES: CHAKHO.” The rapper-producer does a remarkable job at encapsulating the thrilling plotline of the webtoon through a galvanic musical experience, rich in contrasting sounds. The string arrangement in particular blends with the bass synth like a dream, transporting you right in the midst of the nail-biting action of 7FATES: CHAKHO.

 

On the other hand, Jung Kook’s captivating, breathy vocal performance heightens the emotional quotient of the track, as he elucidates on the trials and tribulations of the seven protagonists; “You are my fate/No words can express it enough/Salvation that saved a wearied me/Is that easier to grasp/Those few words that saved me/ I’ll be by your side after many nights/ On yeah (those few words)/I’ll stay by your side even if my feet bleed/ Please, you stay alive.” It’s one of the many characteristics that sets Jung Kook apart-as a singer- his vocalization embodies the ethos of every word, helping listeners resonate with the protagonist’s emotional arc; irrespective of whether you’re familiar with the language or not.
