WINNER
YG Entertainment has taken a position on the group’s future activities.
Today, YG Entertainment said on its official SNS that it informs you that preparations for the new album and WINNER‘s solo projects are going smoothly.
“Although WINNER released two albums last year and is currently touring Asia, members are busy recording new songs until early in the morning to share to keep busy schedules with their fans. This time , support for YG Entertainment will be provided step by step, including the “encore” concert in Seoul scheduled for February 14th and 15th, as well as plans for the members’ solo album. “ said YG Entertainment.
“YG Entertainment will do its best to respect and listen to the wishes of its artists and fans first and to reward the love that fans have sent us for the best results. Thank you again for your love and your expectations for WINNER. “
WINNER‘s Fandom Inner Circle had previously tried to present a proposal through various methods, mail, fax, general public, SNS …, in which it wanted to improve the group’s activities towards better management, but it didn’t seem to have received an answer.
The Fandom believes that it is necessary to take in more active the work of the members as they approach their departure for the army and that the “군 백기” of the team (a hiatus caused by the army) is inevitable. As a result, the WINNER fandom demanded a response, protesting outside YG Entertainment‘s office in Mapo-gu, Seoul, using vehicle screen advertising.
The fandom requires all four WINNER members to produce and deliver their own content, actively using the group’s YouTube account. That the announcements of the plans for their future activities, actively support their solo activities, that complaints be lodged against the malicious comments directed against the group and its members, …
The fandom seems to activate more aggressively to ensure WINNER‘s activities at a time when regrets and anxiety are growing about leaving for the army. With YG Entertainment giving its own position after a long-standing request, attention is drawn to the possibility that the fandom’s growl will subside.
WINNER released their third mini-album “CROSS” in October of last year and is currently touring Asia.
