[OSEN=김사라 기자] As YG Entertainment’s MIX & MATCH to determine the members of iKON came to an end on Nov 6, the futures of YANG HONGSEOK and JUNG JINHYEONG, the two who didn’t make it, will be decided on Nov 8.
Personnel at YG Entertainment told OSEN on Nov 7, “Tomorrow Mr. YANG will have talks with YANG HONGSEOK and JUNG JINHYEONG who unfortunately didn’t make it to iKON. At the meeting it will be decided whether they stay in YG or not.”
In a survival program where BIGBANG was formed, Jang Hyun Seung dropped out and became a member of Beast—there is a chance that these two will leave YG. At the preview event of MIX & MATCH, YANG once mentioned that “it may be difficult for those who don’t make it to debut from YG.”
The announcement is attracting much attention on the outcome of the talks between YANG, YANG HONGSEOK and JUNG JINHYEONG.
In the last episode of MIX & MATCH, all members were announced. Now the 7 boys—B.I, BOBBY, JIM JINHWAN, KOO JUNHOE, SONG YUNHYEONG, KIM DONGHYUK and JUNG CHANWOO will make a debut as iKON. Starting from Nov 15 and 16, iKON will kick off their first official performance by opening BIGBANG’s 5 Largest Dome Tour in Nagoya.
