Many K-Pop fans love to hate and hate to love survival shows for a variety of reasons. On the plus side, a survival show can be exactly what an idol needs to make a successful debut or for a group to gain more popularity, like in the case of ZEROBASEONE‘s Kim Jiwoong.

On the other hand, fans have criticized companies for taking the “easy” way out of promoting their recently debuted groups by sending them to survival shows.

Fans are fearful this might be the case with the fifth-generation boy group TOZ.

TOZ was one of several Boys Planet offshoot groups that debuted after the program concluded and is made up of several fan favorites. Their official debut occurred on May 4, 2023.

This hiatus, along with some other details about the group’s activities, has left many concerned that Hart (also known as Haruto) and Takuto will participate in the upcoming survival show Universe League.

A list of potential contestants has recently circulated on X containing the two idols as rumored possibilities.

This list, along with the group’s inactivity over the last few months and the two members’ silence on their group accounts, have many concerned for TOZ. Additionally, this would be Hart’s third survival show as he initially competed on LOUD prior to his time on Boys Planet.
