Boy Group Gets Called Out For Allegedly Buying Video Views By Their Own Fans
A new boy group has been called out again.

On January 15, 2026, it was announced that IST Entertainment would debut a seven-member boy group, TUNEXX, featuring former Boys II Planet contestants Sihwan, Donggyu, Arctic, and Inhu.
Not long after, many began protesting the inclusion of Sihwan, who has been accused of sexual harassment and more.

As a result of the hypercritical look fans have taken at the group, some have pointed out some surprising stats.
Ahead of their release, the group has shared a trailer titled “Tune Into Our Frequency,” giving a look at the group’s upcoming release.
The video currently has 17 million views as of February 15, 2026. While this would not necessarily be something out of the ordinary, the group only have 23 thousand subscribers on the account, something that appears to have raised alarm.
Taking a closer look, along with the video only having 500 comments, other videos posted by the account do not have nearly as many views.

As a result, fans of members of the group have called the company out for allegedly spending money on views.
