Fans Urge Agency To Change Loossemble’s “Disrespectful” Comeback Date
CTDENM, the agency behind Loossemble, recently announced the date for the group’s much-anticipated comeback, marking the release of their second mini album. The news was initially met with excitement from fans across the globe.
However, the joy quickly turned to concern when it was realized that the chosen date coincided with a somber anniversary in South Korea — the 10th anniversary of the Sewol ferry disaster.

The Sewol ferry tragedy — a devastating incident that resulted in the loss of over 300 lives, many of whom were high school students — has left a deep scar on the nation. The memory of this event is honored annually in South Korea, with the country coming together to remember the victims and the impact of the disaster.
Upon discovering the overlap, many fans expressed their dismay, deeming the comeback date disrespectful to the memory of those lost in the tragedy. They have since taken to social media to voice their concerns, urging CTDENM to reconsider the timing of Loossemble’s album release. According to some fans, the plea for a date change is not only coming from the international fanbase but is also echoed by many Korean netizens.
