Mention of custom in-ears in RESCENE birthday support notice... Fans' opinions diverge

According to media reports, girl group RESCENE has been expanding its scale of activities while gaining attention due to the chart reversal of their song. Ahead of member LIV's birthday on October 11, the agency The Muze Entertainment posted a guide for accepting birthday support on its official channel.

The notice presented items such as custom in-ears as gifts that require prior coordination with the company. It also included guidance to contact them via email to inquire about said items. Custom in-ears are customized audio equipment used on stage, and it is reported that the cost can be substantial depending on the production method.

Some fans criticized that the agency might be relying on fan gifts even for stage equipment. They pointed out that even if a direct purchase was not requested, specifying expensive equipment gave the impression of inducing gifts.

On the other hand, fans defending the agency viewed the wording not as a demand for expensive gifts, but as guidance in preparation for inquiries. Opinions also emerged that the criticism is excessive, as there is no evidence of forcing gifts.

According to media reports, RESCENE moved from a dormitory where the 5 members shared one bathroom to a dormitory of 99 pyeong in size. It is also known that they received about 100 advertising offers, drawing attention to the changed status of the team following the chart reversal.
