Fans are worried about what it will mean for the group.
Koreaboo
Many K-Pop fans love to hate and hate to love survival shows for a variety of reasons. On the bright side, a survival show can be exactly what an idol needs for a successful debut or for a group to gain more popularity, as in the case of ZEROBASEON‘S Kim Jiwoong.
On the other hand, fans have criticized companies for taking the “easy” route to promote their recently debuted groups by sending them to survival shows.
Fans fear this could be the case for the fifth generation boy group DUST.
TOZ was one of many The planet of boys Offshoot groups that debuted after the program’s conclusion and consist of numerous fan favorites. Their official debut took place on May 4, 2023.
This pause, along with other details about the group’s activities, has left many concerned Hart (also known as Haruto) AND Takuto will participate in the next survival show League of the Universe.
A list of potential contestants recently circulated on X containing the two idols as supposed possibilities.

This list, along with the group’s inactivity in recent months and the silence of the two members on their group accounts, worries many about TOZ. Additionally, this would be Hart’s third survival show that he initially competed in STRONG before his stint on Boys Planet.

praying that my boys will be treated well in the future. I couldn’t bear to see everything incomplete for an indecisive amount of time, so I hope you’re smart about it. I don’t want to lose them due to insufficient promotions :/ https://t.co/h6vKv6MbwP
