Annie Moon is facing divided reactions after debuting in THE BLACK LABEL’s new co-ed group ALLDAY.
Annie Moon, known as the granddaughter of the Samsung chairman and a chaebol heiress, was rumored to be cut from THE BLACK LABEL’s upcoming girl group MEOVV before landing in ALLDAY. Her family background is already stirring buzz, with some fans praising her "queen" status.
But many fans criticize the hype around Annie as unfair, arguing it stems more from her wealth than her talent. K-pop stans are calling out the “nepo baby” factor, comparing her to other members like Bailey, Youngseo, and Woochan who are recognized for their skills.
Twitter reactions include:
cris HSH¹:
“Yall gagging over her wealthiness is very odd”flo fujoshi fans:
“this group will be a cultural study of how out of touch nepo babies are”BTS HOMECOMING:
“I’m so over with this kind of stan culture”Ray :
“You will always be closer to yumi hwang than annie moon gagging over somebody who was born into a privileged family that trampled on people and discarded them is insane kpop fans class conciousness when?”jay:
“not even a single sound heard from them yet but kpop stans will gag over this simply bc they got a chaebol heiress in there.. ok”
The controversy comes as another ALLDAY member faces backlash over cultural appropriation and supporting an abuser, putting the group under intense scrutiny.
Fans continue monitoring reactions as THE BLACK LABEL’s new co-ed group ALLDAY officially debuts with a mixed response to its star-studded lineup.
