Big Hit Entertainment has released an apology to TXT fans regarding the controversy behind their official fandom name.

On May 6, the agency took to TXT's official social media to explain that they had not realized that TXT's fandom name was already in use by another artist until after the name had been announced. They then extended their apologies to the fans that had been waiting for an official fandom name and all of those who have been inconvenienced by their mistake.

The agency then announced that they have decided to create a new fandom name and asked fans to submit their ideas.

Meanwhile, back on April 25, Big Hit Entertainment had revealed that the name of TXT's fandom would be 'Young One.' However, as of September of last year, this is also the name of Tiffany Young's solo fandom.

  1. Tiffany Young
  2. TXT

    I really liked the suggestion I saw someone on allkpop make in a comment. 2morrow X 2gether = 4ever. Or some other clever fandom name that starts with 4

    Respect to BH for responding and owning upto their mistakes. And if anyone complains about the 2 weeks gap, remember that BigHit is a company and they might have to take care of many things before responding officially. They might take time to respond, but they do respond.
