"The End and Beginning of Oh My Girl."

 "The End and Beginning of Oh My Girl."

There was a moment in the last Oh my girl concert , near the end where all of them were finishing their last song , where Arin approached YooA and walked side by side , arms in hips , laughing with each other as the other 4 members remained at the front and they had to run back to bow.

It might have been just a forgotten cue , the pair might have been thinking that it is over and we are going to make our final bows. Looking at the moment now. These are the two that left.


If anything Miracles have already learned from the past that these concerts always held the possibility of someone leaving as was the case for Jiho who had a very lengthy moment in another concert. And then she was gone.

When the news broke that only 4 members have resigned with WM and that YooA and Arin which for me still remain the main visual draws of the group are signing elsewhere , might even be in direct competition in the future as actresses or variety content people , I was devastated. I was going home and just decided to see updates. And there it was. The end of 10 years.

Sure there are promises and these are basically lies. Aside from Got7 I have not seen the majority of groups that promise that they will still promote with each other after leaving for other companies do so. The assurance from YooA felt like a lie as for sure since they will be on their own , promoting their own activities and such they will have no other time for group activities.

So it remains to be seen what will happen to Oh My Girl , can Yubin replace YooA and Arin as the visual center of the group? Can Mimi and her popularity carry them? Or will they go the way of B1A4 , once the backbone of WM , now some obscure sunbaes roaming the hallways. 

While I still look forward to seeing how they will all progress like a possible fight between Arin , YooA and Jiho now that they are all in the arena of acting. There are some interesting developments even if the sadness will linger just a little bit.
