IZ*ONE members reportedly with families after comeback postponement

AKP STAFF

The IZ*ONE members are reportedly with their families after their comeback was postponed earlier this month.

IZ*ONE were set to make a comeback with their album 'BLOOM*IZ' last week, but with CJ ENM producer Ahn Joon Young's admission to rigging votes on Mnet's 'Produce x 101' and 'Produce 48', the future of the project girl group is uncertain. On November 19, TV Report revealed the members are currently taking personal time at home instead of their dorm.

Reports say that each member will be resting with their families at home, and their promotions this year are uncertain. IZ*ONE's reps previously said on their future activities, "Discussion is required."

Stay tuned for updates on IZ*ONE.

No matter how you look at it - these girls were put into an impossible situation. Even if they knew about the preferential treatment, they were just pawns in a bigger game. Yet, for all the vote rigging and manipulation - Mnet did produce 4 brilliant groups.

I remember fans shouting to Yoojung at IOI's final concert - 'wherever you are, we'll wait for you, we'll find you". It was their final assurance to her (WekiMeki hadn't yet been formed).

I hope fans can assure I*Zone members too; whatever happens - they won't forget them.

They are no winners in this fraud case. The members thought that finally they have made it. But now they realised it was all lies. The trainees who were robbed their deserved place also didn't gain anything from this unless cj paid them compensation (i personally think they won't pay a single cent).

Produce series actually was a good format to showcase trainees their talents especially from smaller companies . In season 1, we saw yoojung, chungha, jeon soyeon and others rose to popularity with their own talent on stage only.

I really hope the only losers are cj and mnet. Imagine if 100 trainees and agencies sue cj and mnet
