Bad News: After School Will Undergo Another Graduation This Year

After School is said to make their Korean comeback this coming June, and it looks like it will be the last promotion for one certain member. After the Graduation of Bekah last year and Soyoung in 2009, looks like After School will undergo another Graduation this coming year.

In an article that was released earlier today Pledis Boss Han Sung Soo said “We’re in the midst of discussing the next member that will graduate”


Han Sung Soo  didn’t name a specific member but did say there will be someone graduating. Han Sung Soo  said “for Bekah’s case, the company gave her a few months of time to reconsider but she still decided to leave the group and graduate.”

With Orange Caramel’s upcoming debut in Japan; Nana Raina and Lizzy will definitely not be graduating. KaEun who is a new member and is yet to have her official debut in june is also off of the graduating list. Because of this there are 5 members: Kahi Jung-A Juyeon Uie and E-Young, who are up for graduation.

Playgirlz commented: ”so when they announce a new member we should be prepared and expect for a graduation”, “I’m sure Uie will not graduate as she makes a lot of money for pledis but I hope none will graduate”, “Pledis said if the member reconsider she may not graduate.” and “Playgirlz! let’s make their next comeback a hit! let’s make them win! so that it will be a memorable one for the graduating member and perhaps she may reconsider! It’s TIME to show this girls that we care and love them!”

After School is the first idol group to debut with a unique “Admissions” and “Graduation” concept in Korea where members are added or withdrawn in a “Natural” manner.

    Though U-ie is the most popular I want her to graduate because in my opinion she would definitely be even more successful as an actress so to concentrate on her acting I think she should graduate if not I think either Jung Ah or Joo yeon will graduate for sure. I don’t think kahi will since she is a leader

  2. Reed says:

    NO! :’(
    I really think JooYeon will get the boot because she’s the least utilized member even though she’s my bias. I think the original 3 should stay but Uee is important to AS in Korea and said she’d never graduate also E-Young just came and is starting to shine :(

  3. Diệp Thiên Vy says:

    stop graduation, please !

  4. Chigi says:

    I have a bad feeling that Juyeon will graduate… But I don’t want her to do it, i really like her. ohh I hope that no one will graduate now :(

  5. Janice says:

    I think it’ll be Jooyeon or Jung-Ah…. (T_T)

    Even though we are fully aware it’ll happen to each of the original members at some point…it’s still hard to accept when the time arrives. It took a while for me to get used to not seeing Bekah…..

  6. pop_pupu says:

    Maybe jooyeon will graduate because she dosen’t get a lot of line in after school members.I don’t like to think that.

  7. kenzou says:

    pledis suck!

  8. Onet Park says:

    Graduation? Again? I’m totally disagree!
    And please stop adding new member at least for another 2 years, E-Young hasn’t got the chance to shine & now a new member added? Geez, what’s going on with Pledis CEO’s mind?

  9. 90playgirl says:

    Han Sung Soo!!! really other graduation, I still do not SUPERATE OF THE GRADUATION OF Bekah

  10. ichi says:

    I think jooyeon will graduate this year , but I don’t want this system .. Please no more graduation member :(

  11. sglords says:

    :(
    if someone grad as lest bring in someone that is appealing

  12. “for Bekah’s case, the company gave her a few months of time to reconsider but she still decided to leave the group and graduate” after this statement people still complain, it’s obvious why she left to Hawaii now. They gave her time to think about it, that must mean she requested to leave, otherwise they’d given her automatic green line something like ‘it’s your turn to graduate’ more than asking her to reconsider it.

    I’ve got no troubles with the system.

  13. AQuan says:

    i hate this graduation thing :-s please, i love the original AS (or what’s left of it ) and Uee, please stop graduating :(

  14. kev says:

    Fuck Pledis. Seriously. That faggot Song Soo can’t run an agency for shit.

  15. YoungE says:

    Next Comeback Stage = Sad / Happy ..

  16. Nia says:

    I think It maybe Jooyeon,. :(

  17. priska says:

    Pledis…. U make me going crazy
    graduate kahi, jungah, jooyeon, n uee then make a new group for them, it’s better than see them out from pledis, because i love pledis family….

  19. aelita says:

    Not jung ah, because she will debut sub unit with raina,
    maybe kahi and she will solo career,
    maybe uee and she will be actress,
    Oh no………
    I don’t want it…..
