All viviz's money is not use in this comback, the minimalism is so messy this comeback. You could have done better to your own money maker BPM. https://t.co/18QhVwbQLR

it’s always “stand here, stare at the camera, and we’re done” how is that a concept? fans ask for more and the company keeps serving the bare minimum https://t.co/Pt5Y7tpHRE

BPM: let's put random fabrics at the back so that they wont complain about having plain backgrounds.

Korean netizens even shared past concept photos for VIVIZ.
Netizens hit back at the lazy approach of VIVIZ’s company and nd believed that they deserved more, with some saying that the members should go to another company.
- “Honestly, I wish VIVIZ could just take their name and go to a different company. They’re promoting without any scandals, but their agency keeps stirring up internal controversies that drag them in. I’m sick of it all.”
- “At this point, do they even know what a concept photo is?”
- “Is this supposed to be a ‘Shh’ concept photo, a ‘Maniac’ one, or a comeback teaser? I can’t even tell anymore.”
- “What was that last photo? It had the same background as this concept photo, right? LOL. It’s just ridiculous. Where’s the actual ‘concept’ in these concept photos? They just dressed pretty and took pictures in a studio. And BPM even tries to sell that. Couldn’t they at least throw in some props or something? What concept is this even supposed to be? I want to believe they spent all the money on the song, seriously.”
VIVIZ is set to have a comeback on July 8.
