It sparked a mix of heartbreak and indifference from fans.
While some shared how sad it was that EVERGLOW went from one of the top fourth-generation girl groups to having a lack of support, others hit back saying that it was their and the company’s fault for the recent poor decisions made, especially linked to their shows in Russia.

why are ppl surprised that there's no one? they're literally signed under pro russ1an company and will have a SEPERATE tour in russ1a. they may not be popular in korea, but they're ruining their image with such actions more and more. anyone with common sense should boycott them! https://t.co/QSFxTWbME4

let’s be real—everglow has never been big in korea and that’s nothing new. they’ve always been a global group with a massive int'l fanbase, and that’s more than enough. as for the sales not hitting 500, it makes perfect sense given the circumstances. they’ve had huge hiatuses… https://t.co/x7xGQgrqmm
