Although many are happy that the girls are finally receiving protection, ENHYPEN fans cannot help but feel bitter at how Belift Lab did not apply the same treatment to ENHYPEN. According to fans, ENHYPEN has been facing malicious comments, defamation, and more, but the company failed to defend them.

Sunghoon had to face a rude fan during a videocall fansign.

Photos of the boys sleeping on airplanes surfaced online.
Shockingly, when members faced controversy and backlash, Belift Lab did not release official statements, leaving the artists to fend for themselves. When Jake was accused of hitting on girls at Itaewon, Belift Lab kept mum, leaving Jake to answer fans for himself through Weverse, where he begged fans to believe him.

When Jay made a careless comment about Korean history, he was the target of many malicious comments online. Koreans take their history very seriously, causing the matter to blow up. Belift Lab did not speak on it, leaving Jay to make his own personal statement.

At one point in time, akgaes piled on the maknae Ni-Ki, for allegedly bullying Sunoo. While all allegations are false, akgaes reportedly sent him death threats and more. All of this went unmonitored by Belift Lab.

Others have commented that Belift Lab probably only mobilized this time as their reputation as a company was at stake, thanks to Min Hee Jin’s accusations.
i get how frustrating it is as an engene bc belift never moved for enha and i’ll never forget how they said nothing during one of the worst hate train ever but tbh i have in mind they only spoke bc the label was dragged by mhj, if their ass wasn’t dragged they would’ve kept quiet… https://t.co/PHmAfHrErX

ILLIT was recently implicated in HYBE’s feud with ADOR CEO Min Hee Jin. Min accused Belift Lab of plagiarizing NewJeans to promote ILLIT, and named HYBE as an enabler.
