Multiple Signed Albums Gifted To A K-Pop Group Found For Sale Online
Over the last few years, items belonging to K-Pop groups have been found in unexpected places. For example, B.A.P‘s MAMA Award for “Mnet PD’s Choice Award” was given to a fan in the Philippines by their mother after she discovered it at a second-hand shop.
Recently, netizens were shocked that multiple albums gifted to a group have been listed online for sale.
In 2022, boy group TAN debuted following the survival show Wild Idol.
During their time promoting, TAN attracted a decent amount of attention. In 2023, they made history as the first K-Pop boy group to be sent into deep space. The group released its first full album in March 2024, charting at number 28 on the Circle Chart.
On June 18, a netizen shared that they had found a listing on eBay, a reselling website, for an album by ATBO signed to TAN with a message written to the group.

Looking closer at the eBay account where the album was listed, there are several more TAN related items, including albums signed by K-Pop groups ily:1, CSR, and Younite. There are also multiple signed TAN albums listed as well.
Several of these albums have sold, but the currently still active listing for CSR’s album mentions that these were collected from Think Entertainment’s now defunct offices.

In May 2024, related to a manager attempting to cover up Kim Ho Joong‘s DUI, Think Entertainment announced that it would be firing all its employees and undergoing “internal changes,” in addition to discussing contracts with the artists under the agency.
TAN are currently still active, with member JOOAN scheduled to hold his first solo fan meeting ahead of his enlistment later this month.
