Source Music updates refund policies for GFriend's official fan club after complaints

AKP STAFF

Source Music has updated the label's refund policies for GFriend's official fan club after a wave of complaints.

The label was previously under fire for its BUDDY fan club membership after announcing, "All refund amounts will be returned through 'Weverse cash,' which can be used in the Weverse Shop." GFriend fans were angered by the refund option, and they further complained there was not enough GFriend merchandise available.

On June 9, Weverse is said to have sent automated calls to each member of the GFriend fan club on the platform to inform them that direct cash refunds are now available for their memberships.

As previously reported, all 6 members of GFriend ended their contracts with Source Music last month.

  1. GFriend (Girlfriend)
  2. SOURCE MUSIC
  3. WEVERSE

They really should've done that from the start. Not everyone who stans a group from a company stans other groups from that company, especially in this case where other groups are under other subsidiaries. It already hurts that the group suddenly ended but it's really a slap to the fans' face that the company is basically like "sorry they're gone, but here's a gift card of your money that you can spend on our other groups, this way we're not losing any money" I'm glad they decided to reverse that decision and actually refund them.
