This whole time I was under the impression that Hikaru was going to go back to Avax and join XG as a new member.
But on their YouTube show about how the group was formed, she is actually cut from the line up before the group debuts, so she will not join XG.
That opens the door for a Korean company to try to scout her and offer her a deal to debut in a new group, maybe a company that has some other Kp1er members under them.
143 Entertainment; has Yaseo and Mashiro, but the expectation is that they will join Limelight, but maybe they can pull more members.
Jellyfish has Dayeon and they do not have a Girl group since Gugudan.
Cube is probably not looking to debut any GG any time soon, and Yujin is probably done with the idol career after Kep1er, maybe she will try acting or a solo career.
IST has weeekly, they debuted in 2020 and are struggling after a hot start, I do not see a future for Bahiyyih or anyone else there,
Wake One Entertainment is a company under CJ ENM, a large company, they co-manage Kep1er, Chaehyun is under contact with them, maybe they can make a deal with some of the Kep1er members to stay in the team, or re-debut.
Xiaoting is under a Chinese company Top Class Entertainment, I do not know what are their plans after the Kep1er contract is over, maybe she goes back to China to do some modeling, she is a 1999 liner, so re debuting in another group may be difficult for her.
