BIGHIT MUSIC Sparks Outrage With Latest TXT Announcements
BIGHIT MUSIC faces outrage from fans after recent announcements regarding TXT.
Following Soobin‘s hiatus announcement, it was revealed that following the Golden Disc Awards on January 5, TXT would be going on a break to have a rest.
Yet, netizens couldn’t hide their shock when BIGHIT MUSIC announced TXT’s next schedules, revealing three dates in Korea in March, just over a month and a half after the group’s break is meant to start.

When the announcement was made, netizens were furious. Considering the break hasn’t even started, fans shared their anger that it doesn’t seem like TXT is going to have a proper break and that the company is just greedy for money.

So what does « long term break » means now ? We all wished for a full 3 months (at least for others).
They have a last show on 5th january and these concerts begin march so it means back to work mid/end february…
So 1 month and a half is their definition of a long term break… https://t.co/71RNdASyk7 pic.twitter.com/pPu1ISXCIL— TXT_Belgium_🇧🇪 (@TXT_BELGIUM_FAN) December 20, 2024

I thought "Long-Term Break" meant an actual LONG TERM BREAK
Like didn't they JUST have their encore tour not too long ago? Isn't this too much?
The members have been getting overworked and sick and you're telling me that this isn't enough for the company?

i’ve never seen a more money hungry company than bighit, a company that doesn’t give a sh*t about the well being of their artists. one of the members is in a hiatus and you said the whole group would have a decent rest after january https://t.co/lzM9RMLXrg

In particular, shortly after, TXT’s social media accounts announced the group would be going to Europe for the first time, which gained a lot of attention as HYBE groups have been known to miss out the continent allegedly due to regulations surrounding dynamic pricing.

Yet, as happy as netizens are, they found it odd that TXT hadn’t even started their break, but the company seemed to be promoting many activities within only a few months of the start of their time off.

i have mixed feelings now….. https://t.co/3Sp9iYy2r6

Netizens had high hopes when the break for TXT was announced, as the members have been constantly busy, but the recent news has sparked anger that the group won’t get a proper rest, especially as tour preparations start before the shows.
