When the news came out, netizens couldn’t hide their shock and anger. Member Hangyul has participated in numerous survival programs and debuted with several groups, so netizens reacted to the company for doing so rather than promoting the group together.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN HANGYUL IS IN ANOTHER SHOW!? He has debuted 5 times, been on more survival shows than anyone else and it’s not even close! https://t.co/pkKKccO91R

Hangyul is literally fed up with survivals, they never consider his feelings, he’s 24 years old on his 5th debut, I sincerely wish he would become so famous and leave this literal hell, fuck these greedy assholes https://t.co/5VI1iOVYiS

Pocketdol wants to resign💀
Send all Bae173 members and 5 Fantasy Boys members to survival shows? *sigh* https://t.co/0r4qjo7jH3— sugarksoul | Noren (@dailyksoul) September 26, 2024
However, they are not the first active group that has had all members participate in survival shows at the same time.
In October 2018, all members of ACE participated in survival shows. Junhee AND Yuchan competed on The Unitywhile the members Donghun, Wow, AND Helloongkwan competed on Shuffle nine.
Many fans just want the group to shine together, but it seems the company has other ideas and has been hit with backlash.
