With the recently concluded MTV Video Music Awards (VMAs), TOMORROW X TOGETHER bagged the Push Performance of the Year award for their track “Sugar Rush Ride.” Aside from that recognition though, the group’s leader Soobin had one more thing to celebrate!

Soobin, known to be an avid fan of Bebe Rexha, got to reunite with his idol at the awards show. The American singer-songwriter even took to Instagram the selfies they took at the event.

In one of Bebe’s backstage interviews at the VMAs, she even congratulated TXT and mentioned Soobin. “I’m excited to see them, say hi and just hang out with them. I’m happy for them,” she stated.

Fanboy Soobin

In Soobin’s Weverse live on September 16, the idol talked about his recent VMAs experience. There, Soobin shared his encounter with Bebe Rexha and reminisced how her music helped him get over tough times.

 “I gained a lot of  strength through her music when I was a trainee and I felt like a lot of those lyrics were talking about me… I still feel the same”, he told MOAs. Upon knowing they were both attending the VMAs, Soobin restlessly sent Bebe a text message, in the hopes that they would meet. 

Additionally, the leader excitedly shared about how their seats were close to each other during the show. And how Bebe looked out for him and his group throughout the night. Also he made sure to let Bebe know he missed her too.

Heartwarmingly, Soobin mentioned how he was really nervous during the awards show but Bebe made him feel relaxed. “Since our seats were close to each other, whenever we’d make eye contact, she’d smile at me and it really made me feel very calm,” he said. “I was really grateful to her,” he added.

Moreover, that’s not the end for Soobin’s fanboy moments during the VMAs!! When he was asked which artist he would want to work on a record with, he naturally said Bebe Rexha without a second thought.

 

Bebe Rexha and Soobin’s friendship 

In 2019, the two had a cute interaction on social media. At the time, Soobin told Bebe Rexha that he is her biggest fan.

A year later, in 2020, TXT and Bebe Rexha also held a joint Instagram live. After that virtual chat, the American singer was all praises for the K-pop group, describing them as sweet and awesome. 

Unsurprisingly, Soobin talked about how nervous he was talking to his idol. He even shared some of his favorite unreleased tracks of Bebe and asked her if she’ll release them in the future. 

 

However, the duo only met each other in-person in March 2023. To commemorate their first encounter, Bebe took to social media to share some adorable photos and clips of them together. “Sweet sweet angel,” she said in the caption.

With several interactions now, fans of both groups couldn’t help but wish for a Soobin-Bebe Rexha collaboration next!

‘Treat Soobin Better’: Fans Call Out Bighit for Alleged Mistreatment of TXT’s Leader

Despite TOMORROW X TOGETHER’s first VMAs win and collaborative track with Brazilian singer Anitta, several fans have called out BIGHIT MUSIC for the label’s alleged “unfair”  treatment towards the group’s leader Soobin.

Using the hashtag #BigHitTreatSoobinBetter, MOAs, TXT’s fandom, have expressed their frustration against the label. For these fans, Soobin has been receiving inadequate lines and reduced screen time for their music videos.

BIGHIT Music’s alleged behavior towards TXT’s Soobin

According to MOAs, Soobin only got two lines in their recent track “Back for More” featuring Anitta. Additionally, they pointed out that the leader only had 16 seconds in total. While this might be normal for other idol groups, MOAs claim that this division isn’t fair for a group that only has five members. 

“Soobin is a singer, a dancer, and an extremely talented person. He literally shines on stage. And he has such an incredible voice and falsetto.. It’s time to stop underestimating him and give him more lines,” one fan demanded.

https://twitter.com/dailysoobtonin/status/1702365030275228109

 

As per fans, this alleged mistreatment has been evident even in the group’s earlier releases. Even listing down previous tracks “Good Boy Gone Bad” and “Sugar Rush Ride.”  

Moreover, MOAs are enraged with how BIGHIT highlights Soobin’s part in the trailer, usually featuring it for teasers. But they’ll later find out that the leader only has a few lines in the official music video. To make matters worse, MOAs are claiming that Soobin barely sang and appeared in their “Do It Like That” collaboration with the Jonas Brothers.

https://twitter.com/dailysoobtonin/status/1702368040879530088

 

Aside from that, MOAs are also upset with how BIGHIT continues to disregard Soobin’s plans to drop a cover. Since 2021, the idol has been expressing his plans to release a cover as a gift for the fans. But even now in 2023, he has not had the opportunity to record one. Which made him the only TXT member without a solo cover, as of writing. 

https://twitter.com/bl5sty/status/1702204801138778377

 

MOAs on raising their concert about TXT

Some fans also clarified that demanding for more Soobin lines and screen time does not equate to hating the other members. As MOAs have said, they are simply appealing their disappointment towards the management and hope their clamors would be heard.

Others also explained that airing their grievances against the management doesn’t make them less of a fan. Instead, it’s a way of showing more solidarity to the actual artists. 

With the unreasonable exposure BIGHIT has been giving the multi-talented leader, MOAs can’t help but express their anger with how the label handles the boy group. While MOAs urge the BIGHIT to treat Soobin better, the label has yet to release a statement on the issue.

Currently, TXT is gearing up for the release of their third full-length album The Name Chapter: FREEFALL. It will be released on October 13.
