BINOYKOT ng kanilang sariling fans ang boy band na Day6 sa airing ng kani­lang bagong reality show na Dayoff in Jeju na nag-premiere last Jan. 14 via V-Live, a live video streaming service in South Korea.

Sobrang dismayado ang My Days (official fans club ng Day6) nang mala­mang may bayad ang naturang show para mapanood sa V-Live. Kinakaila­ngan nilang magbayad ng 20,000 won (approximately 20 USD) para mapa­nood ang 6 episodes at 2 behind-the-scenes videos.

Ang Dayoff in Jeju ay first reality show ever ng grupo since they made a debut in 2015 kaya ang point ng fans, mas okay kung ginawang libre ang show para mas maraming makapanood kabilang na ang mga non-fans.

Sa management ng Day6 na JYP Entertainment (Studio J) nagagalit ang mga fans dahil hindi raw naaalagaan nang maayos ang kanilang idolo.

Kaya nang araw na ‘yun mismo (Jan. 14) ay nag-launch ng fandom boycott ang My Days against JYP Entertainment, at hindi lang daw ito dahil sa pagka­dismaya nila sa show kundi dahil na rin sa maraming bagay prior to this.

Inirereklamo nila ang mistreatment ng JYPE sa kanilang idolo at sa lack of communication ng management sa fans.

Nag-release ng official statement ang My Days directed toward JYP Entertainment stating the boycott and the reasons as well.

“After DAY6’s debut, DAY6’s label JYP Entertainment and head office ‘Studio J’ has fostered fans’ discontentment with constant absence of any communication with fans, as well as with poor management of its artist. On this day, we cannot sit idly by as the label continues to mock fans and mistreat its artists, including with the launch of DAY6’s first ever reality through a small-traffic, paid platform with absolutely no prior advertisement or teasers, and so we state as follows,” ang bungad ng statement.

Inilista nila isa-isa ang kani­lang mga ini­rerek­la­mo tulad ng:

1. Poor management of artists and sche­dules including too many solo concerts without rest, failure to notify fans of schedules, lack of music show promotions, album promotions, and events.

2. Lack of professional procedure and severe insults toward fans during fan sign events, including staff members’ laughter and mockery after reading fan letters or overhearing conversations with artists; excessive security searches, especially in chest areas; poor management of lines which may result in dangers or injuries.

3. Zero feedback on any fan requests, despite fans’ constant demands for change, improvements, etc.

Sa pagtatapos ng statement, it reads, “Until we receive official feedback, we will continue to boycott DAY­OFF in Jeju via V Live+.”

Nang araw ding ‘yun ay nag-trending sa South Korea ang natu­rang boycott sa hashtags na ang parehong translation sa English ay “DAY6_Reality_ boycott.”

Ang Day6 boy band ay binubuo ng limang miyem­bro na sina Jae, Sung­jin, Young K, Wonpil, and Dowoon. The band debuted with their first mini-album, The Day on September 7, 2015. Last year (October) ay bumisita sila sa Pilipinas para sa kanilang “Youth 1st World Tour.”
