Is TXT's Yeonjun Being Mistreated by His Agency? Protest Truck Sparks Outrage

In a recent demonstration at the HYBE Labels building, a protest truck aimed at drawing attention to the treatment of TXT's Yeonjun has caught the eyes of fans and netizens alike. The truck's message, however, has left many questioning its authenticity and the intentions behind it.

Concerns about Communication and Fan-Company Dynamics 

Protest trucks have become a popular means for fans to voice their concerns to idol companies without needing a physical presence. This method has gained traction among global fans as well, allowing them to actively participate in advocating for their favorite stars.

Why isn't the firm doing anything at all~~~  when our baby has antis,~~~  when the kids of other companies have antis and their companies take care of everything?~~~  Where did our Yeonjunnie go? 

-Truck Messages

The message displayed on the truck urged for better treatment of Yeonjun, but its peculiar use of the "~" symbol and cutesy suffixes at the end of each sentence have raised suspicion. The overly casual and sarcastic tone struck a discordant note, prompting netizens to question the source and legitimacy of the message.

One notable aspect that puzzled netizens was the repeated mention of "moms." Speculation arose that this term could be a reference to Yeonjun's individual fandom. The message seemed to imply that there was a lack of direct communication between Yeonjun and his fans, with a mention of the absence of one-on-one live streams.

Fans also expressed concerns about the company not documenting Yeonjun's growth adequately and potentially exerting control over his social media presence.

Netizen React

The overall unprofessionalism and unusual phrasing of the protest truck fueled doubts among fans, leading them to question whether a true fan had genuinely sent it or if antis - individuals who harbor negative sentiments toward idols - were behind the demonstration.

"Now the meaning of the truck has faded and it's scary that really crazy antis are going to send a truck to harass them. "

">>>My baby<<< Hahahahahaha"

"Aigoo...."

"What"

"Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha"

"Is it a truck fad? he"

"Do you think it will be 420 ?"

"What the hell is this hahahahahahahahahahaha"

"? No.. I know very well that you are a hive idiot, but this is so embarrassing..;;"

In response to the controversy, netizens expressed their reactions, noting that while some degree of unnatural wording could be expected in messages from global fans, Yeonjun's truck appeared to take it to another level.

The absence of a verifiable source for the truck's origin has only heightened suspicions, leading fans to consider the possibility that the protest may not have been initiated by a genuine supporter.


As the speculation lingers, the protest truck has certainly sparked a debate within the TXT fandom and raised important questions about the treatment and communication between idols and their fans.

While the intentions behind the demonstration remain uncertain, it is evident that the issue of idol welfare and fan-company dynamics continues to be a significant topic of discussion in the K-pop community.
