So what does “long-term hiatus” mean now? We all wanted 3 whole months (at least for others).
They have one last show on January 5th and these concerts start in March, so that means we will be back to work in mid/late February…
So 1 1/2 months is their definition of a long term break… https://t.co/71RNdASyk7 pic.twitter.com/pPu1ISXCIL— TXT_Belgium_🇧🇪 (@TXT_BELGIUM_FAN) December 20, 2024

I thought “Long Term Break” meant an actual LONG TERM BREAK
Like, didn’t they JUST have their encore tour not too long ago? Isn’t that too much?
Members are overworked and getting sick and you’re telling me this isn’t good enough for the company?

I’ve never seen a more money-hungry company than Bighit, a company that doesn’t give a damn about the well-being of its artists. one of the members is on break and you said that the whole group would have a decent rest after January https://t.co/lzM9RMLXrg

Notably, shortly after, TXT’s social media accounts announced that the group would be going to Europe for the first time, which attracted a lot of attention as HYBE groups are known to miss the continent supposedly due to pricing regulations dynamic.

Yet, as happy as netizens are, they found it strange that TXT hadn’t even started their hiatus, but the company seemed to be promoting many activities just a few months into their time off.
okay, I understand what you’re trying to do…
but, like, can you do it a little later…..? I do not know
I have mixed feelings now….. https://t.co/3Sp9iYy2r6

Netizens had high hopes when the hiatus for TXT was announced, as the members have been constantly busy, but recent news has sparked anger that the group will not get adequate rest, especially as preparations for the tours begin before the shows.
