Yuehua Entertainment Belatedly Apologizes for Cutting Choi Ye Na’s ‘Hate XX’ Promotions Short

Yuehua Entertainment has formally issued an apology to fans of Choi Ye Na for abruptly ending the promotional activities for her HATE XX comeback. 

In late June, Choi Ye Na returned with her second single album Hate XX, with the song Hate Rodrigo” as its title track. 

However, the song, which featured (G)I-DLE member Yuqi, was met with online backlash. Netizens speculated that the song was a diss track directed to American singer-songwriter Olivia Rodrigo. 

https://twitter.com/YENA_OFFICIAL/status/1674671023416016898

 

Moreover, the music video even featured actual images of Rodrigo. It also included several references to some music videos of the American popstar. 

Additionally, fans also continued criticizing the song’s title and the similarities of the concept between the two releases. 

https://twitter.com/YENA_OFFICIAL/status/1668996717872832512

 

Following the criticisms, the music video for “Hate Rodrigo” was made private shortly after its release.

However, Yuehua Entertainment explained that it wasn’t removed because of a request from Rodrigo’s camp. According to the agency, they “discovered possible violations of trademark rights, portrait rights and copyright in the music video.” 

Homage gone wrong? 

For her part, Choi Ye Na has already explained that the song wasn’t an attack towards Rodrigo.

In fact, she said that it’s meant to pay tribute to the international star’s success. She added that the “hate” is a metaphor to her envy and admiration for Rodrigo’s career. 

Despite this, the track was still met with displeasure. 

Within a week of her promotions, Yuehua Entertainment announced that Ye Na canceled a broadcast appearance due to bad health. 

Since then, neither the artist or her agency has released a statement on her future activities and developments with the song.

Until August 5, when Yuehua Entertainment issued an apology. 

“We would like to bow our heads and apologize for not quickly informing the fans about our artist Choi Ye Na’s album promotions for her second single album HATE XX,” the agency said. 

The label continued that they accept the “fans’ rebuke.” They  promised that they’d try to “make more of an effort” to listen to the opinions of the supporters. 

Currently, Choi Ye Na is preparing for her Japanese debut on August 9. 

Choi Ye Na made her debut in 2018 through the project group IZ*ONE, after becoming one of the 12 winners in the audition program Produce 48. After IZ*ONE’s disbandment in April 2020, she made her solo debut in January 2021.

TXT Made Music History as the First K-Pop Group to Headline Lollapalooza

Lollapalooza, synonymous with music legends and iconic performances, witnessed a historic moment in 2023. TOMORROW X TOGETHER (TXT) became the first K-pop group to headline the festival

TXT‘s relationship with Lollapalooza is marked by a rapid ascent. Their debut at last year’s festival was already groundbreaking. It made them the first Korean act to grace its stages. This year, they weren’t just participants; they were the main event. 

The Consequence reviewer captured this sentiment: “From a side stage to the main event, TXT‘s journey is a testament to their undeniable talent and the ever-growing appeal of K-pop.”

Thick with anticipation

The atmosphere at Chicago’s Grant Park was thick with anticipation. Hours before the gates even opened, a sea of fans, known as MOA, could be seen camping outside, some having spent the night to secure a prime spot. Their dedication was evident in the myriad of fan-made merchandise, banners, and glow sticks that shone brightly against the Chicago skyline. 

A dedicated fan named Gabrielle Dance braved the rain to line up outside Lollapalooza’s north gate at 9:30 AM, an hour and a half before the official opening time of 11:00 AM. Dance wasn’t alone in her enthusiasm; approximately 200 others did what she did, hoping to secure a coveted spot at the barricade for the evening’s main event: TXT’s performance.

Block Club Chicago talked to Dance. At 15, her excitement was palpable. Like many others, she had traveled from out of state, drawn to Lollapalooza by the pull of TXT. The significance of the event wasn’t lost on her.

Dance captured the sentiment of many international fans. “With K-pop groups based in Korea, we don’t get a lot of shows here except for, like, world tours. So I think for them to be doing festivals like this just brings more showcases for international fans.” Her words resonated with the diverse crowd, emphasizing the event’s significance as a testament to K-pop’s global appeal and reach.

The Lollapalooza 2023 performance

TOMORROW X TOGETHER Live at Lollapalooza 2023

TXT began their set with a fiery rendition of “0X1=LOVESONG (I Know I Love You),” followed by “Dear Sputnik.” The Consequence reviewer said of the opening, “And though the stage was bigger, and the distance between myself and them greater, the dancing looked even more incredible than I remembered. The quintet are all incredible athletes; it’s one thing to see someone jump in a music video, but it’s another thing to watch a normal-seeming person fly into the air. Usually, superhumans are found in movie theaters, not rhythmically levitating in the middle of Grant Park.

The members paused to introduce themselves. Hueningkai initiated a passionate round of barking, a K-pop tradition in the U.S. Overlooking the drenched audience, Yeonjun proclaimed, “The rain can’t stop us. Let’s f*****g enjoy it.” Despite the continuous drizzle, the crowd roared and channeled all its energy into cheering for TXT.

The setlist was a meticulously crafted portrayal of youth, highlighting its various aspects. “Devil By The Window” symbolized flirting with temptation, while “Good Boy Gone Bad” focused on the pain of a first breakup. The latter had an extended dance break, with Beomgyu setting a rose alight and casually tossing it over his shoulder.

The group also touched on the more cheerful aspects of youth. “Thursday’s Child Has Far To Go” had some of their simplest moves, but the smiles on Beomgyu’s, Soobin’s, and Taehyun’s faces made it fun to watch anyway. Their cutest track, “Cat And Dog,” and the unreleased “Blue Spring,” which they first performed on their ACT: SWEET MIRAGE world tour, were also featured.

 

A heavier sound

Over time, TXT gravitated towards a heavier sound, which the group’s Lollapalooza set made clear. “Wishlist” exuded pop-punk exuberance, with the audience head-banging even as the rain continued to fall. “LO$ER=LO♡ER,” a track that feels liberating when a crowd sings along, kicked that feeling up a notch with a prolonged, exhilarating conclusion. 

The band gave “Can’t You See Me?” a sludgy, strong arrangement. “Lonely Boy,” “Anti-Romantic,” “Farewell, Neverland,” and “No Rules” were also on the setlist.

Even though their Lollapalooza performance took place during their ACT: SWEET MIRAGE world tour, they added fresh elements to the setlist and songs to surprise Chicago. They did a triumphant version of “Magic” that featured an extended dance break and reunited with Coi Leray for “Happy Fools.” They also debuted their new collaboration with the Jonas Brothers, “Do It Like That,” live, even if the American trio didn’t attend. “It would’ve been fantastic if they joined us, but there’s always a next time,” Taehyun said.

As the set drew to a close, Yeonjun described Lollapalooza as a “dream come true.” Taehyun invited the audience to “join us for the remainder of our world tour, our upcoming album, and more exciting ventures.” The group remained on stage for several minutes after their final electrifying number, “Sugar Rush Ride,” expressing gratitude and initiating more barking.

Fan reactions to TXT at Lollapalooza

‘TOMORROW X TOGETHER: OUR LOST SUMMER’ Highlight #1

In the Disney+ documentary, Our Lost Summer, Yeonjun looked back on TXT’s previous Lollapalooza appearance, expressing doubts about whether they deserved to be on the bill. While they disproved that notion in 2022, this headline act affirmed their rightful place in this elevated slot.

The show was a testament to TXT‘s evolution as artists and their prowess in enchanting audiences with their distinctive fusion of youth and rock. Their fans loved the setlist. Their performance was impeccable, their vocals outstanding, and their stage presence undeniably rockstar-like.

The bond between TXT and their fans, MOA, is profound. This connection was palpable throughout the show. MOA was a pivotal part of the spectacle, from synchronized fan chants to the ocean of light sticks.

TXT‘s Lollapalooza 2023 performance wasn’t a mere concert; it celebrated music, culture, and art’s power to bring people together. People will remember this moment when music broke barriers and a K-pop band captured the hearts of audiences worldwide. – K-Pop News Writer

Jimin and Jungkook Tore Up the KSPO Stage with SUGA for “D-DAY” Encore Concerts

The BTS members have always delivered electrifying performances, and SUGA‘s D-DAY shows in Seoul stand as proof. Jimin and Jungkook joined SUGA onstage at the KSPO Dome, filling the first two nights of the tour’s final leg with captivating moments for fans.

Jungkook graced the stage on the opening night, collaborating with SUGA on “Burn It.” Before his second song, he engaged with the audience, expressing, “Hello, everyone! I’m here at SUGA-hyung’s encore concert to celebrate with him. ARMY, your voices are amazing! Thank you for supporting him. I wish I could stay longer, but I’ll leave you with one more song. Thank you, everyone.” He then sang “SEVEN” backed by some dancers, including James, one of BigHit Music’s more well-known trainees.

However, a candid Jungkook went on Weverse Live after the concert, addressing a slip-up during “Burn It.” “I practiced the song many times and still made a mistake,” he lamented. 

“While performing ‘SEVEN,’ I took out my in-ear because I couldn’t hear the music. I couldn’t tell if the note was flat or sharp because my microphone was so loud. All I heard were the drums,” he said. But performing in front of ARMY felt so good, even if it was short-lived. Ah, I want to do a concert too.”

Reflecting on his mistake with the lyrics, he wondered, “Can I perform it again tomorrow to make up for it? Should I ask for another chance? I’m free tomorrow. ARMY, please ask Yoongi-hyung if I can have another chance. Tell him that ‘Jungkook feels regretful.’ We’re friends, right?”

Jimin joined the D-DAY festivities too

Jimin made a dramatic entrance on the second night as the lights dimmed. He and SUGA performed “Tony Montana,” much to the crowd’s delight. Originally released in 2016 with Yankie’s voice, SUGA produced a new version that he and Jimin debuted at BTS’ third Muster later that year.

Their onstage chemistry was palpable, and the performance quickly became legendary among ARMY. SUGA, always in tune with the fans, often expressed his desire for a repeat performance. Following this, Jimin did his single, “Like Crazy.” SUGA let Jimin seamlessly transition into “Like Crazy” with no formal introduction.

The result? A performance that combined Jimin‘s vocal prowess, intricate dance sequences, and an aura that captivated the KSPO Dome. Fans’ enthusiasm continued online, with the keyword ‘JIMIN JIMIN’ garnering over a million mentions. Meanwhile, ‘TONY MONTANA’ ranked first in worldwide Twitter trends and second in the US. It also went to No. 1 in Korea. Other keywords, such as ‘LIKE CRAZY, ‘ PARK JIMIN,’ and ‘STAGE COMMANDER JIMIN,’ also trended.

“I’ve seen many concerts where people usually introduce the guest, but he just appeared. Ah, that’s Yoongi-hyung’s style,” Jimin said after SUGA left him alone on stage.

The first two nights of SUGA’s D-DAY concerts highlighted BTS‘ strong bond with each other and ARMY. From Jungkook‘s candid reflections after the first night to Jimin‘s dramatic entrance and legendary performance with SUGA on the second, the last leg of SUGA’s D-DAY tour captured the essence of BTS. Their performances resonated within the dome’s confines and echoed across the digital world, capturing hearts and setting trends. – K-Pop News Writer
