DAY6 Receives Severe Backlash For “Lack Of Sincerity” Towards Fans

Fans of DAY6 have voiced strong disappointment after discovering that members signed their latest album, which features a completely black cover, using black markers, making the autographs nearly invisible. The signed albums were given out to fans as a lucky draw prize.

Photos shared online showed fans receiving their signed albums, struggling to find where the signatures were placed.

One sarcastically commented that it seemed like invisible ink.

Is it like a secret autograph or something? An autograph that can only be seen by kind people?

Many expressed that it felt “careless” and “insincere,” especially since the boys aren’t rookies anymore and should have recognized the error.

• If you don’t want to do it anymore, then quit. Why are you forcing yourself to promote, but create reasons for people to criticize you?
• Did no one point this out? I feel like the artist would’ve reacted to it too, or did everyone just agree to play dumb?
• They’re not rookies anymore. Couldn’t they have asked for a white pen? These albums are going to fans.
• It’s not a matter of wits, but they have 0 sincerity.

The controversy has since spread across online communities, with some calling for JYP Entertainment to issue an apology or offer replacements.
