Upon the group's disbandment, each member released a statement on their individual official X account. In these statements, they revealed that the disbandment was decided suddenly, and that they had not received any salary since their debut.
The content suggests that the inability to continue activities was due to the financial situation of the agency. The unpaid wages have been reported by music media outlets based on statements from the members themselves. However, no detailed explanation from the agency has been confirmed at this time.
The testimony that idols continued their activities without being paid, despite the glamorous stage presence, is being seen as a problem concerning the working conditions of idols.
