Pledis official statement regarding fromis_9 neglect controversy (Increasing event invitations, comeback preparations proceeding smoothly)

 

On the 13th, Pledis Ent. revealed that festival invitations are pouring in for Fromis_9.

The girls are set to kick off their comeback preparations by participating in major festivals and events. On the 17th, they will perform at the festival of Dongyang University in Seoul, followed by an appearance at the 'Spring Breeze in Campus' event at the Peace Hall of Kyunghee University on the 18th.

On the 21st, they will take the stage at the 'KBS Korea on Stage' event held at Gyeongbokgung Palace in Seoul to raise awareness about the importance of national heritage.

From June to August, they are scheduled to appear at various festivals. Starting from the 'Weverse Con Festival' on June 16th, followed by the 'Waterbomb 2024 Nationwide Tour' in Seoul on July 5th, and performances in Incheon on August 3rd.

The agency stated, "In addition, we are actively negotiating with various festival organizers and coordinating other performances." 

Fromis_9's member Lee Chaeyoung recently expressed her sadness during a live broadcast, saying, "Why can't we, only us, fromis_9, be active for so long? It's so sad," and "I also have Flovers (official fandom name). I also have fans. We also have Flovers," which led to speculation among some fans about being 'neglected'.

On the other hand, Pledis Entertainment responded indirectly to such suspicions. The agency stated, "We are smoothly progressing with fromis_9's comeback preparations. We plan to showcase various activities, including not only music but also a photo exhibition, this year," and added, "We will spare no effort in providing the necessary support for this."

-Yeah...

-Holding events without releasing an album seems half-hearted.

-It's obvious they're rushing...

-Everything, including Weverse concerts, was already planned before this fuss.

-They're asking for a comeback and a new album.

-Eventually, they're not preparing for a new album after all.

-Neglect? They're always busy with Weverse schedules, events, individual song features, and more.

-If they're having one comeback a year, they're doing enough.

-I thought they were being neglected when the controversy first arises, but they did concerts this year, released singles, and participated in big events, so...

-They really weren't neglected. Considering this group is fabricated, just being able to do what they're doing now is something to be grateful for.

-They have a lot of schedules, and they've been around for seven years. Isn't releasing an album once a year enough?

-Why is this a neglect? The group only has 4 months left until their contract expires, which company would release an album in that situation??

-They were never neglected to begin with...
