Are they having the olivia rodrigo syndrome? Created so much artificial success for them and now they know the actual demand can't possible match that exact kind of expected touring power? Like you could think olivia rodrigo to be a top 5 act worldwide capable of easily selling every stadium in the world by her 2 albums achievements but she is still doing arenas in 2024 four years after breaking out.
It has been 1 and half years after newjeans supposedly took the world by storm but there is not even a showcase tour announced, we saw how a organizer got tricked by hybe into booking metlife stadium counting on newjeans supposed huge massive success on the US and oh boy what a non surprise the result for that was lol, I'm sure hybe got a little nervous after that. Because newjeans are for sure very successful, just not as much as hybe tricks and tokkis cultists want you to believe... by newjeans success they should be selling out stadiums worldwide by tomorrow but we all know that's not happening, but hybe could at least announce a little tour and made up they have to take every little step of the road, starting with small arenas just like olivia and their label made up for her.
