Fans say Class:y deserves more than 2 songs for their comeback after a 2 year hiatus

Class:y, also known as My Teenage Dream Girls, is a girl group that made their debut after competing in a K-Pop survival show. The group has released several albums, including Day & Night, Lives Across, and Class is Over. However, in 2023, the group unexpectedly went on a hiatus, despite having several ongoing projects at the time. While it’s not uncommon for K-Pop groups like BLACKPINK to experience long breaks between releases due to busy schedules and varied promotions, Class:y’s hiatus took fans by surprise. But after two years of silence, M25 Entertainment recently gave fans the update they were eagerly waiting for.

On October 14th, 2024, M25 Entertainment officially announced that Class:y would be making their long-awaited comeback, marking their first Korean release in two years. Fans initially expressed their excitement at the news, thrilled that the girls were finally returning to the public eye. But soon after, excitement turned to disappointment.

On October 28th, 2024, the official tracklist for Class:y’s comeback was unveiled, and it quickly became a hot topic online. The controversy? M25 Entertainment labeled the release as the group’s “third mini-album,” yet the tracklist only featured two songs. Fans were quick to voice their discontent, questioning the label’s decision to market such a short release as a mini-album after two years of anticipation. Here’s what some fans had to say:

“I’m disappointed. Two years and this is all we get?!”

“Why call it a mini-album if there are no more than two songs? It’s ridiculous.”

“Two songs for a mini-album? What is the agency even doing? We’ve waited two years for new songs and this is it? Totally disappointed.”

“I was expecting more from this agency… Turns out they don’t even know what a mini-album is. Give them more songs!”

While the backlash against M25 continues to grow, this isn’t the first time the company has faced criticism regarding its treatment of Class:y. Fans have long expressed frustration over the lack of proper promotions and comebacks for the group. Comparisons have been drawn to M25’s other artists, like Fantasy Boys, who have received their own lightsticks, more frequent comebacks, and better promotion overall. This perceived favoritism has fueled ongoing conversations about Class:y’s alleged mistreatment.

Frustrated fans have taken to social media to voice their discontent, calling out M25 for what they see as neglect of the group. Despite the backlash, M25 has remained silent, doing little to address fans’ concerns.

Despite the controversies, some fans are still hopeful for Class:y’s future and are grateful that the group is continuing to push through despite the challenges. Their enduring support for the girls shows just how much Class:y means to them.
