Following member Kang Minseo‘s revelation that FANTASY BOYS, formed by a 2023 survival show of the same name, are living without electricity, all members have since sent out the same cryptic messages to their fans.

Fans subscribed to the rookie boy group’s messaging service on the fan communication app fromm shared alarming screenshots of all members posting the identical message, claiming they will not be available over the weekend, all at once, at the same time of 9:21 PM.

Members also note in the messages that they will try to return ASAP to share updates, all the while apologizing to the fans.

I don’t think I’ll be able to keep in touch over this weekend, I apologize. I’ll try to come back with an update as soon as I can. Thank you and I’m sorry.

— FANTASY BOYS

The messages have since caused major concern among not just FANTASY BOYS fans, but K-Pop fans in general—as the group is currently managed by PocketDol Studio and produced by Kim Kwang Soo, and both come riddled with histories of allegations of having mistreated their idols.

5th Gen Group Show Signs Of Abuse, Alarm Fans With Distress Signals

Fans remain rightfully worried for the safety of the members.

“Seriously, how is this even legal? This company is insane.”
“Crazy company…”
“Is this the same group that had a member sending a distress signal? I’m scared for them. Someone please help them for real…”
“…That’s so sad.”
“I’m really worried. There is another group with a member having issues with this agency, too. This company is seriously a mess. Adults in their 40s and 50s are exploiting kids barely in their teens and twenties who came chasing their dreams. They don’t provide proper support, just let time pass, and then act like victims while framing the members as troublemakers… And now they’re cutting off electricity and controlling their phones? This is pure exploitation, not management. Why even run an agency like that…”
“Oh no, I feel so bad for them…”
“The fact that they all posted the same message is weird.”
“They should all sue that company for abuse.”
“It’s obvious that the company is controlling all of their accounts.”
“I remember this company being in hot water before too, so I’m really worried.”
“I’m genuinely concerned… Oh no…”

“Wow, this is insane.”
“One of the members were born in 2009… Shouldn’t this be reported as teen abuse and exploitation or fraud?”
“I swear the CEO of this company is a psychopath. He signed these kids saying they were ‘needed for his project’ and now he’s treating these young idols’ one-shot dreams and lives so irresponsibly.”
“??????????”
“This is terrifying.”
“My stupid a*s thought maybe they didn’t pay the phone bills, but seeing all the other comments now, I’m genuinely worried for their safety…”
“What the hell is going on, this is scary.”
“??????”
“???”
“Sending out the exact same message at the same time… This is giving me chills.”
“Wait, what’s happening?! Are those idols okay?”
