Do you think Winwin will rejoin NCT/WayV?

[RussianRoulette]

As the title says, I have a bit of a sad question to ask:

Do you think we’ll ever see Winwin rejoin WayV/NCT?

I noticed on Spotify today that WayV’s picture was a 5 member one which sparked this question.

The members keep saying they are 6 members. Winwin’s vocal about wanting to rejoin but SM won’t work with his schedule.

He’s been gone for over a year now (year and a half?) and he’s missed several comebacks, Japan debut, first Asia tour, first music show win, etc.

At this point do you believe the members in that he’s still part of the group? Or do you think he’ll be MIA and eventually leave when his contract his up?​

Maybe once WayV leaves SM

Winwin was treated like the human equivalent of a spider plant in nct. Good to have around for the benefits but only getting the basic level of care and generally ignored the rest of the time.

imho Lsm chased winwin around China for 2 years just to put him in a love triangle ship.

Sure he can dance and is a visual and is meant to attract Chinese fans, but I really feel like the main point was to ship him with yuta and redacted.

I've also seen tarot tea that some members want to leave the company. There's no reason to expect that nct won't do the same thing as other sm idols before them and leave.

I think even if he renews a contract with SM they're going to keep interfering with them. I believe the members when they say they want to be 6, but I think management has developed such a bad relationship with him (it almost feels like they resent him tbh) that they'll never give him a fair shake again and it'd probably be best for him to leave for his own sake.

This!
I would love to see WayV as 6 but it's easy to see that SM don't want to do anything with him as an idol. It's sad they he missed touring with NCT 127 and now with WayV.
If he doesn't renew I won't be surprised but maybe he will follow Lay's example and drift away from SM without bad blood and keeping the relationship with his group.

I know it's not exactly the same, but it just reminds me of the EXO/Lay situation tbh, so no, I have doubts as to whether he'll ever rejoin WayV/NCT... in like, a real, substantial way, at least.

Yeah I can see him being the actor version of lay.

Plus the person that fought 4 him 2 come Korea is gone now and sm 3.0 seems determined to get as much money as they can out of their idols with the least amount of work.

Jyp is shit but at least he personally clocks in everyday.

The businessmen and venture capitalists running sm have no creativity and no vision for the future of the company.
