    I'm really curious how RIOT came to find Soyeon and Miyeon in the first place. When they started the project (G)I-DLE hadn't even debuted yet, and by the time KDA performance came round (G)I-DLE had already blown up as a hit group.
    Crazy how RIOT saw their potential and got them onboard before they had even debuted or become a big group.

    • @samanthabourne4865
      @samanthabourne4865 3 ปีที่แล้ว +81

      They would still know of the idols even if they hadn't debuted yet.
      Soyeon was a well known rapper from her pre-debut survival shows and Miyeon was actually a (7 year?) rookie with YG as one of the trainees that was supposed to debut with the original concept for what we now know as BlackPink.
      So idols are technically still "around" before debut. All Riot did find rookies that fit what they wanted those to characters to be and we're so glad they picked our girls 🤩

    Music studios don't have the resources to _hire_ animators to projects like this on a regular basic (give or take bands like Gorillaz or aespa), but a game developer? Animation is literally what they do. They have the equipment and the talent in-house, it's one less layer of contracting (and profit-taking), so it's really not surprising how viable it is as a business model...and how audiences react when its done well, as Riot has done!

While I'm not font of SM copying K/DA's idea and their music sounding similar, it would have been an example of how K/DA is leaving its mark in the industry.
