• IS JYP blocking former NMIXX Jinni from appearing on Music Shows?  — Netizens Weigh In

    Speculation and controversy surround former NMIXX member Jinni's limited appearances on music shows, with fans questioning whether JYP Entertainment, her former agency, is influencing her visibility in the industry.

    Despite NMIXX's Jinni having performed on Simply K-pop, fans have noted her absence from major music shows, including those belonging to the "big 3."

    Concerns were raised when she failed to make an appearance on M Countdown, fueling speculation about potential interference from her previous management.

    Netizens have been actively discussing the situation, with opinions divided on whether JYP is deliberately blocking Jinni from participating in prominent music programs.

    One commenter suggested, "I don't think they are blocking her. I guess it's true that Jinni broke her contract and left. I bet that there was a condition about not hurting the team NMIXX when she leaves (at least not overlapping on music shows....). If she left on good terms, there wouldn't be such a condition."

    However, not all responses were as understanding, with one frustrated fan drawing comparisons, stating, "No but even that Kim Woojin bastrd can go on music shows so why wouldn't Jinni? Fck." Another critic dismissed the notion of JYP interference, accusing a fellow commenter of making baseless claims, "Look at how that btch in the best comment is making sht up again. Why are you linking the fact that she's not going on music show and leaving the group together while saying that Jinni was at fault?ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ you seriously have mental issues."

    Some netizens urged caution, emphasizing the need to avoid speculative conclusions. "She's a solo rookie, so I bet that's why she didn't make it in the lineup. Why bring up JYP? The post and comments are f*ck speculating about everything. Cut it down," commented a user advocating for a more measured approach to the discussion.

    The question remains whether the alleged influence from JYP Entertainment has impacted Jinni's chances on mainstream music shows, and fans eagerly await further developments to shed light on the situation.
