have you seen some fans claimg that matt & bin are being favored bc sorn said clc's former management team is now zb1's? That's just so ridiculous, like a) clc wasn't managed well so this is kinda an indicator that they're all not treated that well and b) just bc they were at cube doesn't mean that they know each other or that the management likes them more bc of that. The claims are mainly coming from hao's fandom rn and he's really not the one being mistreated, I could get it if ricky or woong stans would make that claim but bin & hao are the ones who get the most opportunities bc they're the most popular. Fans need to realize that it's not only the company deciding things but it's also the brands asking for specific people. I also get upset when I see some members get less opportunities than others but this is how it works and you're only hurting your fav and their group when you put the other members down. zb1 really has the most intense form of solo stans I've seen in my years of being a kpop fan and it's just holding them down

yeah i heard about it (but i didn't really see because i rarely look at stuff outside of my following... for my peace of mind)... i think these are claims that people want to use to justify the actual issue that should be addressed separately (e.g. other members not getting the same opportunities) shows and brands do invite specific members and that doesn't only apply to zb1 but to other groups as well. cube's former management team being in wakeone doesn't mean that it's the reason why mattbin were invited to a show... if they were really favored by cube's former management, then they should have debuted together in cube. and if mattbin were favored now, we would already have mix&max and they would be together on every single content but that's not really the case.

i don't think it matters which sf is making these claims, we can demand for fair treatment without shitting on other members... one member getting opportunities does not make them less deserving than the others. i know a lot of people are feeling frustrated but this anger should be directed to wk1 and wk1 only, not the members.

i'm gonna be really honest with you this is my first time stanning a group that came from a survival show so i'm really not used to this kind of behavior from solo stans. the groups i've stanned over the years did have akgaes, but i don't think it ever got this bad...
