FIGHT FOR FIFI requests further clarification from @MASSIVE_ENC and @ablume_official regarding their decision to appoint Ahn Sungil (SIAHN) as producer for ablume's debut album.
Due to ablume’s month-long inactivity, a few fanbases have emailed MASSIVE E&C. We expressed concern for the members’ wellbeing and requested clarification.
We understand there could be several reasons for this absence, but we hope MASSIVE E&C can address these concerns soon.
Our goal has always been to advocate for the members’ wellbeing. Until MASSIVE E&C addresses the issues raised in the post below and/or legal proceedings fully clear SIAHN of the allegations against him, we remain opposed to his involvement with ablume.

FIGHT FOR FIFI requests further clarification from @MASSIVE_ENC and @ablume_official regarding their decision to appoint Ahn Sungil (SIAHN) as producer for ablume's debut album.
The FIGHT FOR FIFI admins have been inactive the past half year due to personal commitments unrelated to ablume. Despite our absence on social media, our support for the members is and will always be unwavering.
The second hearing for the 13 billion won damages lawsuit ATTRAKT filed against 12 people, including the members of ablume, is scheduled for November 28th, 2025. Legal experts anticipate the lawsuit will conclude in the first half of 2026.

Please read the following message from a collective of ablume fanbases.
We strongly condemn toxic behavior within the fandom and urge everyone to approach disagreements with respect and the understanding that we are all committed to supporting and protecting ablume.
@ablume_official We sincerely congratulate the members on the first step toward their upcoming debut. However, fans' requests for further clarification regarding SIAHN's involvement with ablume still stand. @MASSIVE_ENC, please respond.
@ablume_official@MASSIVE_ENC, please address fans’ requests for further clarification. Due to the limited information currently available to us, we cannot in good faith support SIAHN’s involvement with ablume.
According to a representative from MASSIVE E&C, the members personally requested Ahn Sungil (SIAHN)’s involvement in ablume’s music production.
“MASSIVE E&C told OSEN, ‘In the process of discussing the future activities of our artist, ablume, we proposed production to Ahn Sung-il at the request of the members, and he accepted, so we will be working together.’”

This claim appears to contradict the members’ consistent efforts throughout 2023-2024 to distance themselves from SIAHN and The Givers. As such, we are seeking clarification from the company regarding this statement. If the members did indeed choose SIAHN as their producer, we request an explanation for their decision.
Regardless, FIGHT FOR FIFI strongly condemns any form of hatred or harassment directed at the members of ablume. Accounts engaging in such behavior will be promptly blocked and reported.
We have emailed MASSIVE E&C with our concerns and expect full transparency regarding the following:
1. Why did the company sign a production contract with SIAHN given the current circumstances and ongoing legal proceedings?
2. Did the members have any involvement in this decision?
3. Considering this may lead to further harassment against the members, what measures does the company have in place to protect their reputations and well-being?
Confusion and speculation have already begun to spread amongst both fans and the general public. We demand a comprehensive explanation from the company to mitigate further negative consequences and protect the members from harm.

On December 17th, 2023, FIGHT FOR FIFI received a message from Saena, Sio, and Aran through their former legal representatives at Barun Law Firm.
Through this message, the members shared that they were diligently practicing while recovering their health and seeking new management. They expressed their desire to continue their journey as artists who positively impact those around them.
As of December 2024, Saena, Sio, and Aran have signed with MASSIVE E&C and are now active as ablume.
FIGHT FOR FIFI is immensely proud of the members for overcoming significant challenges in order to pursue their dreams of creating music that is both meaningful and authentic. We will continue to support them throughout their careers and provide updates on developments in their ongoing legal proceedings.
FIGHT FOR FIFI recently reached out to the legal team representing former FIFTY FIFTY members Saena, Sio, and Aran to ask how fans could support their ongoing legal proceedings.
On December 17th, 2023, their lawyers forwarded an unprompted message from the former members, who granted us permission to publicly share it to give fans comfort and hope.
The former members and their message have no connection to FIGHT FOR FIFI initiatives.
Today marks the first anniversary of FIGHT FOR FIFI’s official launch.
Over the past year, we have worked tirelessly to lead the boycott against ATTRAKT and provide credible information about the situation regarding the original members of FIFTY FIFTY. Our mission has been to uplift the members’ voices and serve as a platform to raise awareness about ATTRAKT’s unethical artist management practices, while challenging narratives shaped by biased media reporting.
We are deeply grateful to everyone who has steadfastly supported Keena, Saena, Sio, and Aran through this difficult chapter in their careers. While we cannot endorse Keena in her professional endeavors under ATTRAKT, we wish her well as a human being deserving of love and compassion. Meanwhile, we eagerly anticipate Saena, Sio, and Aran’s activities as ablume.
As we move forward, FIGHT FOR FIFI remains committed to supporting ablume and leading the boycott against FIFTY FIFTY and ATTRAKT, driven by the belief that all idols deserve to be treated with dignity and respect.
FIGHT FOR FIFI is an alliance of global K-pop fans committed to supporting the original members of FIFTY FIFTY (Keena, Saena, Sio, Aran) and boycotting ATTRAKT for their suspected financial crimes and unethical practices in artist management.

Saena, Sio, and Aran have consistently refuted ATTRAKT’s “tampering” claims, most notably through their series of exposés released in October 2023.

🧵A thread of English translations of posts on @fifi20221118 (Twitter/X) and @/fifi_fifi1118 (Instagram).
English translations of exposes by @hunniesunited.
FIGHT FOR FIFI strongly condemns the Korea Music Content Association (KMCA) for continuing to elicit malicious commentary toward Saena, Sio, and Aran through baseless claims of "tampering."
Since the original members of FIFTY FIFTY filed a provisional injunction lawsuit against ATTRAKT, entertainment associations such as the KMCA, the Korea Management Federation (KMF), and the Korea Entertainment Producer’s Association (KEPA) have leveraged the "tampering" narrative to silence artists' voices and undermine efforts to protect artists' rights.
We denounce the use of unfounded "tampering" accusations as a diversion from pressing issues of exploitation and abuse within the K-pop industry. FIGHT FOR FIFI stands in solidarity with all artists who courageously expose and challenge these unethical practices.
Korea Music Content Association urges K-pop award shows and music programs to boycott NewJeans and ablume (Saena, Sio, Aran) future activities in order to prevent future “tampering” attempts from other K-pop acts:
— “Circle Chart should consider excluding the sales of albums and music from the agencies and artists that have been suspected of tampering. In addition, Circle Chart should also consider excluding data from music show programs such as M-Countdown, Music Bank, Inkigayo, The Show, Show! Champion and other music broadcasting programs. Also, major music awards ceremonies in Korea (Circle Chart Music Awards, MAMA, Golden Disk) should exclude these artists.”

FIGHT FOR FIFI's Updated Boycott Guidelines
As the former members of FIFTY FIFTY embark on a new chapter of their careers as ablume, FIGHT FOR FIFI is updating its guidelines for the ongoing boycott against FIFTY FIFTY and ATTRAKT.
The key changes are as follows:
1. DO NOT INTERACT WITH FIFTY FIFTY CONTENT from official and third party accounts on all social media platforms. Interactions include liking, reposting, quote tweeting, replying, etc.
2. DO NOT POST FIFTY FIFTY CONTENT, ACTIVITIES, OR NEWS on all social media platforms. This includes photos and videos (official and third party), social media posts, music (songs, performances, covers), merchandise, articles, etc.
FIGHT FOR FIFI urges everyone to refrain from publicly discussing anything related to FIFTY FIFTY. Instead, we encourage everyone to focus their efforts on wholeheartedly supporting ablume in their new journey.

The core issues of this case revolve around ATTRAKT’s financial practices, which the members have publicly addressed in their exposés from October 2023.

🧵A thread of English translations of posts on @fifi20221118 (Twitter/X) and @/fifi_fifi1118 (Instagram).
English translations of exposes by @hunniesunited.
🧵 On September 11th, 2024, Dispatch published an article featuring audio recordings of meetings between The Givers, Warner Music Korea, the original FIFTY FIFTY members and their parents.
Dispatch's portrayal of these recordings as evidence of "tampering" lacks credibility.
Conclusion
The audio recordings provided in Dispatch’s article fail to prove beyond doubt that the members were involved in “tampering,” which entails the members conspiring with The Givers to break their contracts with ATTRAKT and sign with WMK without the proper executives’ knowledge.
The lack of context provided for the recordings, the exclusion of several key details in the FIFTY FIFTY situation, and Dispatch’s history of biased reporting and misinformation all cast doubt upon the recordings as legitimate evidence of “tampering.”
Dispatch’s persistent association of the members with The Givers despite their repeated clarifications to the contrary demonstrates a blatant disregard for the members’ perspective, as well as a willingness to omit or distort facts to suit a specific narrative.
FIGHT FOR FIFI strongly condemns Dispatch and other parties that continue to defame and spread baseless accusations against the former members of FIFTY FIFTY.
