Weibo Netizens respond to A-SOUL’s debut on Weibo

Following the announcement of A-SOUL’s debut, netizens on Weibo appear less than thrilled.

On the groups’s official Weibo page announcing its MV debut, comments were seen to include as such:

[+140] There’s no excitement in this, normal and bland, including the powerpoint style animations, what are you trying to do? Go to heaven?

[+49] The song doesn’t sound like its from the underworld, but are you sure it’s an MV?

On Duhua’s Weibo page promoting the new girl group, top comments also included:

[+87] What kind of mess are you putting up?!

[+50] Are you sick…

[+52] Have you resolved Meng Meiqi’s sisheng issue?

[+32] Treat Li Wenhan better!

Netizens on Youtube react to A-SOUL’s debut

Similarly on Youtube, fans have been lukewarm in their reactions towards the virtual girl group, mostly calling on the company to pay more attention to their existing idol groups.

Perhaps the concept of a virtual idol group still requires fans getting used to it, as it is a new concept afterall. South Korean Entertainment company has also recently debuted the girl group AESPA, which also include virtual girl group members. While this concept is met with scepticism by some, others believe that it will be the future of idol groups.
