Okay, so, let’s talk about my little adventure with C-JeS Entertainment, or, as they’re calling themselves now, C-JeS Studios. I stumbled upon this whole thing a while back and, man, it’s been a ride.
It all started when I heard they were cooking up something new, this “made in cjes”, or M.I.C thing, which is their way of whipping up fresh idol groups. They made a big deal about it, saying it’s been in the works “after years of preparation”, starting in 2022.
First off, I dug into who these C-JeS guys are. Turns out, they’ve been around since mid-2009 when some singers got together with a certain Baek Chang-jou. Sounds like ancient history, right? But they’ve got their hands in a bit of everything – music, movies, dramas, you name it. They’re all about growing talent and making a splash in the K-MUSIC scene.
Then, I got curious about this M.I.C project. C-JeS announced they were launching a new 8-member boy group in November. Eight members! That’s a lot of personalities to manage. They’re hyping it up as this big project to foster new idols, and they’re not picky about age – “no restrictions on age,” they said. So, anyone with a dream can apparently shoot their shot.
- Started tracking any news about auditions or open calls. I mean, who wouldn’t want a peek behind the curtain?
- Checked out their existing artists to get a feel for their vibe. Are they more about the music? The showmanship? The whole package?
- Kept an eye on social media for any hints or sneak peeks of the new group. You know how these companies love to drop breadcrumbs.
- Tried to find out who is running and will be running the M.I.C project in C-JeS Studios. It’s always good to know who’s pulling the strings.
- Watched their plan about the group’s training regiment and if they’re doing anything to set them apart from the countless other groups out there.
- Wait until November to see this group and check them out and see what the fuss is about.
Here’s what I did next:
And then, I hit the forums and fan sites. What’s the buzz? Are people excited, skeptical, or just plain confused? It’s always interesting to see the different takes. Fans can be the most honest critics, after all.
Finally, I decided to document the whole shebang. From the announcement to the debut, it’s like watching a K-pop group grow up in fast forward. Will they be the next big thing, or will they fizzle out? Only time will tell.
So, that’s my journey with C-JeS and their upcoming boy group. It’s a mix of curiosity, a bit of detective work, and a whole lot of waiting. Let’s see what happens, folks. This could be interesting.
