I think it will be at least 2-5 months. SGO revealed its members as soon as the ink dried on their contracts while 48Groups(besides MNL) usually wait until after they've trained for several months to reveal their members. Get ready for a long silence.
Yeah it takes a long time for them to debut unfortunately. The fastest process was probably BNK48. MNL48 & TPE48 (now AKB48 Team TP) was revealed at the same time. MNL48 only just debuted while Team TP are soon to do so. Don’t even get me started on how MUM48 we’re announced a year ago and no info whatsoever since. Then again, SGO48’s process seems to be a bit faster so maybe they’ll debut in the first half of 2019.
As far as I know, MNL48 were delayed because of corporate politics and businessman arrogance nearly downing the boat before it left harbor, and TPE48 was on the heels of the China split and Team SH reorganization. SGO48 seem to have a much better company in charge and not as much 48g infighting and restructuring.
In addition, I've seen shorts & tees in the big concerts were everyone sings like in Hikooki Gumo. I think its used when they need a quick and/or cheap outfit either for debuting groups or for large numbers performing. The other costumes are hand sewn and that takes a lot of time and money.
I feel like SGO48’s debut will end up going for one of the hype AKB48 songs as oppose to the safe choices (ATKT & KFC)
The debut date is 22th of this month!!! (Judging from the official teaser - we are going to have Aitakatta and Shonichi 9and maybe 10nen Zakura as well) SGO48 version real soon)
some members still using private social media regardless of the rule so the company made those official facebook to satisfied https://www.facebook.com/pg/SGO48/photos/?tab=album&album_id=501498973673060&__tn__=-UCH-R
While disqualifying several other members for "breaking the rules" during the application process? This is unfortunate.
Anyone interested in reading Vnets' comments about the girls? I have a lot of free time so I'll translate some if you're interested Sent from my SM-G610F using Tapatalk [Don't double post: you should edit your first instead] Ok so BunnyV graduated.. "Announcement regarding Trần Nguyễn Phương Vy - Nick name BunnyV of SGO48 first generation. There was request to decline activities because of personal reasons from her, we will report to the fans that we have accepted this. Activities as SGO48 will be closed following this announcement. Thank you!" Sent from my SM-G610F using Tapatalk
28 Members were posted in an album on what seems to be the official SGO48 Facebook Page and they are sharing official? Facebook pages of the girls. https://m.facebook.com/pg/SGO48/photos/?tab=album&album_id=501498973673060
She is one of those members was using sns in private. As a bigo streamer with thousands followers, it looks like difficult for her to stop using them. Perhaps that is the reason. By the way, I don't like the word "graduation" that the announcement is used. They are still not debut, so what she's learning to graduate. That is just a "resignation".
Originally the Vietnamese part of the announcement post said it's a graduation announcement. I'm not sure if they changed it to sth else because I didn't check but they probably did. Sent from my SM-G610F using Tapatalk
