VIVIZ Reveals Why K-pop Idols Only Promote on Korean Music Shows for Only Two Weeks
For every debut or comeback, one of the ways K-pop groups and soloists promote their song or album is through music programs. Mnet's "M Countdown," SBS's "Inkigayo," MBC's "Show! Music Core," and KBS's "Music Bank" are just some of them in South Korea.
Usually, it only takes two weeks for any K-pop artist to appear and perform on Korean music shows. Many fans might be wondering why.

Luckily, VIVIZ revealed the reason behind it in the latest episode of "Yongjin's Health Center," where Lee Yongjin and former "Street Woman Fighter" contestant Gabee act as the main hosts.
On July 21, episode 8 of "Yongjin's Health Center" was released, and the VIVIZ members- SinB, Eunha, and Umji- appeared as guests.
Lee Yongjin began the discussion by asking, "Whose greed is it to release an album right away after 'Queendom'?" SinB candidly replied, "It's the company's greed," making everyone burst into laughter.
Yongjin then asked the girls to introduce their new album. However, they couldn't. Why? Because their management company had not yet provided an introduction script for the album!
Lee jokingly told them they would wait for 20 minutes and asked the group to return to their agency to get a script.

Umji introduced VIVIZ's new song instead. She said, "It's a summer track called 'LOVEADE.' It's not like a super summer vibe. It's something like, oh~ summer~ vibe."
The trio later showed the choreography for the chorus of "LOVEADE" and revealed that the main point is the heart shape made by the two fingers in the middle.
After the performance, Lee Yongjin asked the group how long they planned to perform their new track, and VIVIZ replied that it would take them two weeks.
Yongjin followed up by asking why K-pop groups/soloists promote on music shows for just two weeks. In response, VIVIZ Eunha revealed, "It costs a lot [of money]." SinB added, "The costume fee costs a lot too."

Lee then asked, "Why can't you perform with just one costume? Why do you need to change it every time?" Eunha and Umji replied that they also wondered why.
After knowing the reason, Yongjin realized that it's best to be an entertainer rather than an idol, as he can wear the same clothes repeatedly. For example, their outfit for "Yongjin's Health Center."
Meanwhile, "Yongjin's Health Center" releases new episode every Thursday on YouTube.
