Cube has gifted the kpop community with a present for which nobody asked: the debut of project group Double Yoon. This subgroup combines Gayoon and Jiyoon and basically is set up to be the K.R.Y. or TaeTiSeo of 4Minute, aka the "singers subgroup."
Huh, that thing around Jiyoon's neck looks kinda like a nipple ...
Gayoon and Jiyoon are the best singers in 4Minute, hands down. I like them, and I like 4Minute. But come on now, nobody pays attention to 4Minute for the music.
You listen to 4Minute for trashy pop or to look at Hyuna or to watch the group's next trainwreck of a stage performance. Listening to 4Minute for the music proves two things: 1. You actually hate music and want it to die a quick-tempoed, off-key death or 2. you're just delusional.
A 4Minute-derived "singers subgroup" is so unnecessary. For better or for worse, Hyuna is what draws people to 4Minute. Take the whore out of 4Minute, and what do you have? Two decent but unremarkable singers, one of whom offers little in the way of stage presence.
For reference, I've included this photo representation of what
4Minute would look like without Hyuna.

So Yoons, I hope you do well, but it'll take a lot to make me care about your project group.
Just for fun, here are some made-up subgroups that nobody would want:
SHINSUNG -- the Shindong and Sungmin subgroup of Super Junior
SISTAR 19/20 -- the Dasom and Soyu subgroup of Sistar
YOONYEON -- the Yoona and Hyoyeon subgroup of SNSD
KEYHO -- the Key and Minho subgroup of Shinee
HOT 'n' CRAPPY -- the Nichkhun and Taecyeon subgroup of 2PM
Actually, some people might want this one. But it might be the worst pairing on this list.
The thought of those two singing alone on stage is enough to make me run out to buy earplugs ...
Thank you for reading article Unnecessary subgroups
