I still think YG Japan is greedy as fck. They keep booking treasure for 1-2 months every year but didnt help to promote them to general public. Couldnt even send them to the first take. Wtf was that??
daesung: my company didnโt even tell me anything before releasing the statement denying my dating rumors with youngji
gdragon: daesung, iโm disappointed

Kepada Yth.
Leader @treasuremembers,โจHaruto & Jaehyuk
Di tempat
Perihal: Permohonan Fancon TREASURE di Asia Tenggara
Dengan hormat,
Kami selaku Teume Asia Tenggara mengajukan permohonan agar fancon TREASURE yang akan datang tidak hanya diselenggarakan di Korea dan Jepang.
Adapun alasan permohonan ini adalah sebagai berikut:
1Kami juga ada.
2Kami benar-benar ada.
3Jumlah kami tidak sedikit.
4Kami rela terbang lintas negara demi TREASURE.
5Tetapi dompet kami tidak selalu sekuat itu.
Sehubungan dengan hal tersebut, kami memohon kepada saudara Haruto dan Jaehyuk selaku leader untuk menyampaikan aspirasi ini kepada pihak perusahaan dengan penuh keberanian dan keteguhan hati.
Kami percaya bahwa suara leader memiliki kekuatan yang besar. Bahkan dahulu fancon Korea dapat terwujud karena keinginan para member yang disampaikan kepada perusahaan.
Demikian surat permohonan ini kami sampaikan. Atas perhatian, usaha, dan keberanian kalian dalam memperjuangkan hak-hak Teume Asia Tenggara, kami ucapkan terima kasih.
Hormat kami,
SEA-Teume
jihoon said there originally wasnt a Korea stop for their fan concert. it was supposed to be a full japan tour but him and the members thought they have to do a concert in korea first so they had junkyu and asahi propose it to the company..
๐ถ about Hwajeong Gymnasium.. I know a lot of you felt the venue was a bit too small, and honestly, I felt the same way.
๐ถ the reason we didnโt say anything before the concert was because the fan concert was originally planned and decided by YG Japan. at first, we were only given the list of Japanese venues.
๐ถ when we [treasure] saw that we said โwait arenโt we doing one in Korea? I think we should have one in Korea too.โ
๐ถ so they had to quickly find and book a venue in Korea. the problem is that itโs actually really difficult to book concert venues in Korea, especially on short notice.
๐ถ bc everything happened so suddenly, there were only a few venue options available. among those options, we felt that it would still be better to hold a concert in Korea first rather than not do one at all, so that was the direction we decided to take.
๐ถ at the time, Junkyu and Asahi were the leaders for that project. I told Junkyu, โwe have to do one in Korea before we go.โ Junkyu agreed. I brought it up with the members. they all agreed too.
๐ถ then Junkyu and Asahi passed it along to the company and worked things out with them, and thatโs how we ended up holding the concert at Hwajeong Gymnasium.
๐ถ there really wasnโt any special reason beyond that. it was simply because the planning had started with the Japan branch first, so thatโs how things naturally unfolded.
๐ถ the headquarters, Japan branch, and us (TREASURE members) all have our own situations and things we have to consider. so rather than saying one side was right or taking anyoneโs side, everyone was simply trying to do what was possible under the circumstances. but if we had explained all of this before the concert, I felt like it wouldโve made people upset.
๐ถ tbh I think anyone wouldโve been disappointed. it doesnโt matter whether youโre a Korean Teume, a Japanese Teume, or somewhere else. anyone couldโve felt hurt over something like this.
๐ถ we were already very aware of the feedback from fans. we knew exactly how everyone was feeling. so I kept wondering, โwhen should I talk about this? whenโs the right time?โ I just didnโt want there to be any unnecessary misunderstandings between anyone.
๐ถ thats why I decided it would be better to explain everything carefully after the concerts were over. and during those three concert days, we wanted to give it everything we had. we felt that was both the respectful thing to do for the fans who came to see us and the best thing we could do as artists.
๐ถ everyone also supported us so much throughout the concerts, and thankfully, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday all ended on a really good note.
