@bbyb1ink Those three are the worst liars in K-pop history. They were kicked out of the dorm last October. In 2025 they recorded a total revenue of $16,000. They are basically the industrial waste of the K-pop industry. https://t.co/ObiKCx8l2D

Right now, ABLUME is in a truly miserable situation — they have no activities at all and are just stuck in their rooms. In Korea, they are being treated like social outcasts.
While the members themselves are heavily at fault, their parents’ wrongdoing is just as serious. Instead of scolding their daughters for their wrong decisions and correcting them, the parents actively led and encouraged the betrayal.
The parents attended two secret meetings and didn’t hesitate to commit what was essentially theft by applying for the trademarks. They are undoubtedly the most shameless and insane parents in K-pop history.
Timeline
May 2, 2023 — After Aran underwent gallbladder surgery, ATTRAKT’s CEO gave all members a long hiatus of over two months, with their return scheduled for July 14.
May 13 — A secret meeting was held at The Givers’ office, attended by the members and their parents along with Ahn Sung-il. Ahn Sung-il spread false information and manipulated them into trying to leave ATTRAKT for Warner Music Korea.
May 17 — A secret meeting was held in the conference room at Warner Music Korea’s headquarters, attended by the members’ parents. Warner Music Korea’s CEO promised housing, practice facilities, and legal support, while strongly urging them to file a preliminary injunction.
June 13 — Member Saena falsely reported to ATTRAKT that she had contracted COVID-19. She submitted a photo of a COVID test kit that Ahn Sung-il had previously submitted to ATTRAKT, pretending it was her own. This was part of Ahn Sung-il’s scheme to help the members secretly leave the dorm undetected.
June 17 — The members left the dorm and completely cut off all contact with ATTRAKT.
June 19 — The members filed a preliminary injunction against ATTRAKT. On the same day, their parents applied for a total of 60 trademarks related to FIFTY FIFTY.
Even though the “Barbie Dreams” MV shoot was scheduled for June 20–23, they filed the injunction right before filming. This was a calculated and malicious move, assuming the ATTRAKT CEO would not dare to cancel the scheduled shoot. Their intention was to later claim in court that ATTRAKT had forced the schedule despite a sick member. However, the CEO canceled the shoot on the advice of his law firm.
August 28 — ATTRAKT won the preliminary injunction case. The court dismissed all of the members’ claims.
October 16 — Keena withdrew her appeal on the injunction and returned to ATTRAKT. Accompanied by her father, she personally visited CEO Jeon Hong-joon, tearfully apologized, and asked for forgiveness. While Keena clearly made mistakes, she received forgiveness from the CEO and many Korean people.
October 19 — ATTRAKT officially notified Saena, Sio, and Aran of the termination of their exclusive contracts.
October 24 — ATTRAKT won again in the appeal trial at the Seoul High Court. The court rejected the members’ appeal, resulting in a complete victory for ATTRAKT.
December 18 — ATTRAKT filed a damages lawsuit (approximately 13 billion KRW) against Saena, Sio, Aran, their parents, and others involved, including Ahn Sung-il of The Givers.
In 2025, FIFTY FIFTY worked hard and generated approximately $𝟵.𝟲𝟳 𝗺𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗶𝗻 𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘂𝗲 and $𝟭.𝟵𝟳 𝗺𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗶𝗻 𝗻𝗲𝘁 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗳𝗶𝘁 for ATTRAKT. In contrast, ABLUME generated only about $𝟭𝟲,𝟱𝟳𝟬 𝗶𝗻 𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘂𝗲 while recording a 𝗻𝗲𝘁 𝗹𝗼𝘀𝘀 𝗼𝗳 $𝟭.𝟯𝟳𝟱 𝗺𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗼𝗻.
ABLUME and their parents demonized ATTRAKT’s CEO, who did nothing wrong, and even now, some misinformed and foolish overseas K-pop fans still believe their narrative. This case will go down in K-pop history as a prime example of how human greed can turn people truly ugly.
@zekkos_@kiiiwiiiz Worry about ABLUME instead — the group that only released two songs, recorded $16,000 in annual revenue, and got kicked out of their accommodation last October.

@stressjudo ABLUME was kicked out of their dorm last October, and they're pretty much disbanded at this point. Which company would invest in a group that only makes $16,000 in annual revenue? #ablume
@isid__or Even back then, ABLUME's parents were probably convinced their daughters would sign with Warner Music Korea. Now, seeing them holed up in their rooms all day just picking boogers, I wonder how they feel. What pathetic parents. #ablume

🔴 May 17, 2023 – Warner Music Korea underground conference room. 🔴
A secret meeting took place.
Attendees: 9 people — WMK CEO Jin Seung-young, Executive Director Yoon Hyung-geun, and the parents of the four members (7 in total).
Yoon Hyung-geun, Executive Director:
“This is a very delicate matter. If this leaks outside, or reaches CEO Jeon Hong-joon… we could be in serious trouble as well.”
WMK CEO Jin Seung-young encouraged the lawsuit.
He said, “Parents, a lawsuit is not something you do lightly. If you’re going to do it, you have to go all the way.”
He added, “This isn’t poker — you can’t just bluff.”
WMK promised full support for the injunction lawsuit.
Member’s mother:
“Once legal action begins, our kids won’t be able to use their dorm or practice room.”
CEO Jin:
“That’s correct.”
Member’s mother:
“Then at least we should know what plan Warner has…”
CEO Jin:
“The dorm and practice room you mentioned are really small matters. We can easily arrange those.”
He also promised legal support, boasting, “Warner knows the judicial system well. Through CEO An Sung-il, we’ll provide every possible resource to bring this case to a quick conclusion.”
CEO Jin:
“If an agency makes even a 1% mistake, the court tends to side with the artist. That’s the trend. It works against the agency. No one can follow a contract to the letter, not down to the very last detail. If payments are delayed once or twice, or if documents aren’t provided — even that can break the contract.”
🔴 The audio recording released by ATTRAKT appears to be only part of the full conversation.
🔴 The claims made by the members and their parents were nothing more than one-sided allegations, unsupported by evidence.
🔴 The court outright rejected all of the members’ arguments.
@heavensentsliit@woeshy@isid__or South Korean entertainment agencies are not charities. If a group doesn’t make money, they have no choice but to drop it. The massive losses fall entirely on the agency. If you hate the system, you should have started your own company with your own money.
In contrast, ABLUME reported total sales of KRW 24.75 million (about USD 16,570) and a net loss of KRW 2.0541 billion (about USD 1.375 million) in 2025.
@imblumora ABLUME got kicked out of the dorm last October and has been stuck in the room picking boogers and rotting away with no activities ever since. Massive VNC should be held accountable for this.
@imblumora ABLUME conspired with Ahn Sung-il and committed the most despicable act in K-pop history. They have essentially given up their humanity. #ablume

Why did the ABLUME members file an injunction right before the “Barbie Dreams” MV shoot?
🟢 June 17, 2023 — Members leave the dorm and cut off all contact with ATTRAKT
🔵 June 19 — Preliminary injunction filed
🟣 June 20–23 — “Barbie Dreams” MV filming period
Even though they knew the “Barbie Dreams” MV was scheduled to be filmed between June 20 and 23, they still left the dorm on June 17 and filed a preliminary injunction on the 19th. By filing the injunction right before the scheduled filming dates, this clearly demonstrates the malicious intent of the members and Ahn Seong-il.
What would have happened if the CEO of ATTRAKT had proceeded with the music video shoot? The ABLUME members would have argued in court that the schedule was forced through despite a sick member, and ATTRAKT could have lost the injunction case.
Ahn Seong-il and the ABLUME members committed the despicable act of filing an injunction right before the shoot, assuming that the CEO would not dare to cancel the schedule at the last minute. However, the CEO of ATTRAKT canceled the schedule as advised by the law firm.
Think about it. If the shoot was set to begin on the 20th and the CEO was informed of the injunction on the 19th, how shocked would he have been? Canceling such an important schedule would have seriously damaged the company’s reputation, so it could not have been an easy decision. The ABLUME members targeted this vulnerability and ambushed the situation by filing the injunction right before the filming dates.
The ABLUME members resorted to underhanded tactics in an attempt to move to Warner Music Korea, but since their claims were false from the outset, they lost both injunction cases. Now they are doing nothing at home.
While fans are waiting for a full-length album, the reality is that the ABLUME members currently have no agency office, no dorm, and no staff, making such expectations about as unrealistic as expecting to go swimming in the middle of a desert.

@k1ssnbella@yujiminitgirl ABLUME was kicked out of their dorm in October last year and no longer exists as a group. Their total revenue in 2025 was just $16,000. They’re basically K-pop industry waste at this point.
@Danhessz Among K-pop idols, not a single one envies ABLUME. Who the hell would envy a group with just $16,000 in annual revenue? 😂 Everyone just avoids them like they’re plague patients.

@kkittynoa ABLUME is no longer an active group. They got kicked out of their dorm back in October last year, and Massive VNC is basically a paper company with no office or employees. The parent company is in complete and total chaos as well.
