Because there are only three managers in charge of taking care of 13 members.“There are too many members, so not all of them can sit on the sofa,” Jeon Young-hwan said. “So we put down mats so the members can sit and rest.”Jeon Young-hwan revealed that Seventeen needed makeup artists from two different salons, because of having many members.“A total of 10 (makeup and hairdressers) came,” Jeon Young-hwan said. “And they come from two different salons. Because one salon can’t handle all 13 members.”

In fact, six months is the longest for a manager to work with them.“We always apologize to the manager, and it’s not easy to wake up in the morning,” Seungkwan said. “They go to bed at 1 AM and wake up at 5 AM and that happens almost every day of the week, so I’m worried about their health.”This has also become a public conversation because they feel sorry for the managers. Some even blamed Seventeen’s agency, Pledis Entertainment.“They are the group that makes the most money in Pledis, they should receive more support than this. There are only 3 managers for 13 members? This is difficult, both for the singer and the manager,” commented a netter.
