As the group IZone (pictured) disbanded, a national petition against it appeared.
On the 10th, a petition was posted on the Blue House’s public petition bulletin board stating that they oppose the dismantling of IZone, a national girl group.
The author said, “Although the PD in charge was arrested and activities were suspended due to controversy over the manipulation of the program, and there were many accusations and criticisms from the public, but those who worked hard for their dreams were also victims.
He continued, “I have suffered more than half of the fixed period of 2 years and 6 months due to the situation of Corona 19. It is a reality that there should not be any dismantling of idol-down activities due to Corona 19. “The origin of Corona 19 is China, but it is due to the government that did not immediately control entry into the country in the early days and is still failing to prevent quarantine.”
“In the end, it is because of the government that IZone failed to work properly, and I don’t understand why IZone should take the damage from the government’s quarantine failure,” he said. “Please take responsibility. Please take responsibility for your (government) failure with IZone extension. “Please return the lost 1 year and 6 months of IZone.”
The petition has been deleted due to criticism that it is an unreasonable demand.
Earlier on this day, Mnet issued an official statement and announced the dissolution of IZone, saying, “The IZone project activities will be completed as scheduled in April.”
IZone has been active for 2 years and 6 months as a girl group formed through Mnet’Produce 48′, which aired in 2018. However, as the manipulation of voting on the live broadcast of the’Produce’ series aired on Mnet was revealed to be true, there was a crisis in its activities.
Eventually, the dissolution of IZone is decided, and fans are expressing anger over it.
