Fans Are Unhappy With SOMI’s Single Announcement, Say “She Deserves Full Album”
On June 20, it was officially announced that Somi's new digital single 'Extra' will be released in July.
Fans have been waiting for Somi’s comeback for a long time, and that moment has now arrived. On June 20, it was officially announced that the K-pop idol’s new digital single ‘Extra’ will be released in July. Some fans were very excited about this news. However, others raised questions. Read on to know!
Many fans stated that Somi had the potential for much greater success. They feel her agency, The Black Label, has not managed her career well. One fan expressed that getting just a single song is not fair to Somi. This person stated that while they looked forward to the new music, Somi deserved more. Another user agreed but mentioned that Somi herself talked about an album multiple times. This means that a full album might follow this new single.
Another common concern raised by fans is Somi’s popularity. She has a lot of recognition and many brand deals. Despite this, The Black Label seems to have problems with resources. Or, some fans believe, the label is purposely holding her back. They also stated that Somi has recorded many songs before. However, these songs often do not get released or are delayed.
One fan made fun of the long wait. They said it had been “84 years”, and all they were getting was a digital single. They stated that the K-pop idol gained fame very early and had huge potential. Both the Korean public and international fans loved her. Yet, her label has only given her about ten songs in seven years. The fans are frustrated.
