Korean netizens are reacting to HYBE chairman Bang Si Hyuk, also known as "Hitman" Bang, producing the title track "Over The Moon."

TXT recently made a comeback with their new album, 'The Star Chapter: Sanctuary' which includes the title track "Over The Moon." The song has received positive response from listeners and has garnered much attention in various online communities.

In particular, Korean netizens have noticed that the main producer of the track is "Hitman" Bang, and gathered to the popular forum TheQoo, to give their two cents on the discovery.

Korean netizens shared their opinions and commented:

"Why do they write 'Hitman Bang' instead of just saying Bang Si Hyuk...? It’s so cringe."
"There are 7 people credited for lyrics and composition. It’s always like this here. Bang must really favor this group—they bring in profits, hire paid 'mercenaries' to knock down other groups without any hesitation, and release things right away."
"I sometimes listen to TXT’s music since it’s my style... and this one’s my style too, but..."
"Bang Si Hyuk’s production style is just never my taste... There’s no impact at all."
"I don’t know much about TXT’s members, but their songs were fresh, so I enjoyed listening. But if Bang gets involved, I’m no longer interested."
"I don’t blame the idols, but seeing HYBE operate like this, I can’t support them."
"MOAs will take care of it themselves, I guess, lol."
"The song is good, but Bang Si Hyuk should stick to composing and step down from the business side."
"I think HYBE is doing this intentionally. Even with I-Land, they keep making the members mention how 'Chairman Bang guided their facial expressions and gestures' in every interview as if he’s trying to assert dominance over the public."
"So that's why Yeonjun is getting such a big push since it’s Bang Si Hyuk’s song. His songs aren't as good as they used to be—his touch has faded."
"I usually enjoy TXT’s songs as a fan of other groups, so I’ll check it out. Hang in there, fans."
"Separate from all this, is HYBE struggling to find good songs these days? All the songs they’re putting out are just so bland."
"I have to admit, Bang Si Hyuk is a good producer..."
"Anyone still supporting and buying their albums after the HYBE scandals should stop criticizing people like adult broadcast BJs like Juice Saeyeon. They’re basically paying for Bang to send them donations on those streams."
"I wish I could boycott HYBE, but I never bought their stuff to begin with, so it’s frustrating."
"Bang’s really putting himself out there, lol. No shame at all, huh?"
"If anything, Bang Si Hyuk seems to be pushing even harder. I watched the MV, and I have to admit, they all look really handsome."
