Doom I Say!
So, long time no see blog.
I’m sure you’ve heard by now, but KAT-TUN will soon be embarking on an Asia-wide tour and releasing a new single. This sounds like great news, until you add the fact that they will be doing all this without Jin. Jin will be performing some solo concerts in America at this time.
Now, the official agency position is that KAT-TUN is not breaking up, and that Jin will resume activities with them as normal after his concerts are done. BUT, I don’t believe for a second that if given the opportunity to be successful in America and leave KAT-TUN, Jin won’t jump at that chance. Let’s face it, he’s been distancing himself from the group more and more for years now, and he’s in love with all things American.
They’re just keeping their options open. If things don’t go well for Jin in America, no harm done, and he can go back to the group. If things do work out, well, I believe that’s going to be a whole different story. So could he be successful? I think probably so, if marketed correctly. Lord knows he’s hot as hell, and his English is improving all the time. Do I want him to be successful? I’m torn. I loathe the idea of KAT-TUN without Jin, but at the same time, I know that this would make him much happier, so it may be selfish of me to think that way.
Sigh. I’m just feeling mopey about this whole thing.
