While not every group has been confirmed with a debut date, it includes ABD, SAINT SATINE from the recent survival show, some of the planned debuts for the sub-labels, and those for the more global projects, including India (which is advertised for a girl group), and one in conjunction with Ryan Tedder.

This tweet sparked a wave of criticism towards the company, with many believing HYBE was acting like a fast-fashion company, constantly bringing out new groups, with some even saying that the company has ruined K-Pop.
