Cosmic Girls will continue to promote as a group of 10 members.

On December 24th, Starship Entertainment announced that Cheng Xiao, Meiqi, and Xuanyi will not be participating as Cosmic Girls for the new comeback. As reported, the group has released the teaser image for their upcoming album 'WJ Stay?'. 

Due to the girls' promotions as Rocket Girls, Starship Entertainment asked fans to "pardon the continuation of Cosmic Girls" without the three Chinese members. Back in September, the same three members had been excluded from 'WJ Please?' promotions for the same reason.

Stay tuned for more updates regarding Cosmic Girls' January comeback.

What does Cheng Xiao have to do with Rocket Girls though? She's not a member of Rocket Girls.

Again so much misinformation I cant go back to my xmas until i sort this out.


Yuehua never had a dispute with Starship, ever. The dispute was with another major chinese company which also has strong government connections like themselves, Tencent.


Tencent demands were that the two Rocket girl members are exclusively RG members while Starship and Yuehua both demanded that they'll be available also for cosmic girl activities and Yuehua pulled the girls from RG in favor cosmic girl. So the idea of Starship Yuehua conflict is nonsense.


After lenghty back and forth it was reported that Yuehua had "won" against Tencent but their "victory" was more about Chinese saving face culture because right after that both girls returned to RG and are there exclusively like Tencent the "losing" side had demanded.


But NONE of that matters for Cheng Xiao. She has absolutely nothing to do with that conflict.

And its beyond pathetic that Chinese idols are known for running away to China for money once they get fame from Korea.


She has been asked multiple times in fan events if she'll do the same and she always says absolutely no. She never would've come to Korea if that was the plan.


And yet...

She was casted in popular variety show Pajama Friends as main cast that numerous other idols wouldve killed for... she bothered to film 4 episodes and then ran off to China for drama filming.

She missed last promotion, again for China drama and shows even though there was no reason. F.ex at the height of SNSD fame and Yoonas dramas getting 40% rating she still managed to attend everything.


There is absolutely no excuse other than money and greed that she is missing yet another comeback and she's 100% personally betraying the promise to fans to put Korea first.
