KLAP and SISTAR19, Too strict to fans?

@SISTAR19

SISTAR19 is a sub unit of SISTAR, duet of Hyolyn and Bora. SISTAR and the sub unit were under care of STARSHIP, but from January of 2024, SISTAR19 is getting cared by KLAP Entertainment. The group had its comeback recently with the album, ‘NO MORE (MA BOY)’, after 11 years they released ‘Gone, not around any longer.’ As the gap between two albums were over decade, K-pop lovers waited and anticipated the activities of the duo. However, the strict policy of the group and inflexible fan manager are making fans sad.

SISTAR19’s Prerecording

Fans are showing their sadness through ‘X’, former ‘Twitter.’ They had a chance to participate pre-recording of the group’s performance, but were being removed from the participants’ list. According to a fan, the amount of the fans were 92 at first. It decreased to 30 people, after the fan manager checked on the participants. They say the fan manager was checking on qualifications that wasn’t listed on the notice. They were asking questions, checking on subscription of Bubble and more. The fans are saying if they wanted a participant who qualifies all of it, they should write it down on the notice. They called 92 people on the arena at 7 a.m. and rejected them in front of the them. One of the fan said, she had a flight from Hong Kong, just to see the pre-recording as she was selected as a participant. However, she got wrong answer on the last quiz, that she was removed from the list. She added she is upset, that she is their debut fan but couldn’t see them at all.

Only 30 participants could pass all of the qualification test. The amount of fans decreased to 1/3 of original amount. What would be the reason for the fan manager and KLAP entertainment for being too strict? Hope they change their policy, or make sure the notice clearly tell all of the qualifications. So no one would go back home without seeing the artist.
