Will you join Orbits in their boycott of LOONA’s upcoming comeback?
Just merely weeks after the controversial removal of Chuu from LOONA and 9 members of the said girl group move to terminate their contracts, BlockBerry Creative announced LOONA’s “full group” comeback on December 12, 2022 at 12 M.N. KST.
LOONA’s comeback is slated to be on January 3, 2023 at 6 P.M. KST, but it’s not looking to be a successful one. Orbits are already planning to boycott the now 11-member group’s (OT12 pa rin) upcoming comeback following the distressful events surrounding LOONA.
Fans are clearly not happy to see the remaining members of LOONA being pushed to release new music and are already making moves to make this comeback fail. K-Pop stores themselves have also announced that they will not support LOONA’s comeback this time around.
in order to boycott bbc i decided to make google drive with all of loona's discography and a playlist on spotify too so u can use your local files without any problem 🫶

Orbits please remember to participate in the boycott, this is what the girls would want
We have seen no SNS posts from the girls, no FAB updates, and no V LIVEs showing their excitement for this comeback, they clearly aren’t happy pic.twitter.com/eFGoLHwwIZ

Let's recap:
They are using nostalgia and lore as a weapons to try to break our boycott. Bbc pretends to make a full album cb in 3 weeks, which is insane for the girls. Loona is deadly silent and Hyunjin have left hints right&left that she doesn't want it either
DO. NOT. BUY. https://t.co/5vPadllhvz

Let's recap:
They are using nostalgia as a weapon to try to break our boycott. Remember Chuu is not part of LOONA anymore so that means "full group" is with just the 11 left, 9 of them filled injunctions to end their contract but still HAVE to work until the trial
DO. NOT. BUY https://t.co/5tu28D98lt

If you’re up to date with the following events, then please do boycott LOONA’s comeback. Yes, we’re not asking you to support this comeback, unless you do see LOONA as just a commodity and not as humans.
Support Haseul, Hee-jin, Hyun-jin, Yeo-jin, ViVi, Kim Lip, JinSoul, Choerry, Yves, Chuu, Go Won, and Olivia Hye in their fight to get the treatment and management they deserve.
