Recently, popular boy group ENHYPEN faced criticism for abruptly canceling a fan event two hours before it was set to start.
They released a notice stating that the fan video call event would be postponed to a later date due to the poor condition of all the members.
ENHYPEN Suddenly Cancels Event Two Hours Before, Triggers Massive Backlash
Most recently, they garnered even more backlash regarding refunds for the event.
“This event has already completed sales and the raffle draw. As written on the purchase site, there will be no refunds for changes or cancellations of the event.
Test calls on the day of the video call are mandatory; if they are not completed, the winner will be unable to hold the video call. We are currently discussing the new schedule and apologize for not being able to announce it sooner. We apologize for the inconvenience, and we thank you for your understanding.”
Fans were furious that they had to rearrange their schedules to attend the fan video call event.
오빠들은 몇명이 어떻게 컨디션이 안좋은지도 모르는데 어쨌든 컨디션이 난조면 이벤트를 아무렇게나 취소하고 막 일정 변경해도 되고
빠순이는 바뀐 일정 소화 못하면 읍백만원 걍 땅에 갖다 버리라네요
자기들이 정해주는 시간에 테콜 못하면 그래도 읍백만원 버리래요

We don’t even know how many members are sick, yet it’s okay to just cancel the event and change the schedule. If the fan can’t make it to the newly scheduled date, they are just throwing away thousands. If the fans can’t pick up the test call on the date they choose, they are throwing money away. They said the time on the app was just set to any time.
