Lee Chaeyeon successfully completed her Japanese concert stage at the "RBW 2023 SUMMER FES: Over the Rainbow"!

In particular, the two-day event was held in Tokyo, Japan from August 19 to 20. It was RBW Family Concert attended by YOUNG POSSE ONEUS, MIRAE, Lee Chaeyeon, Purple Kiss, ONF, Oh My Girl, MAMAMOO, 플러스 and B1A4.

Throughout the 2-day concert, Lee Chaeyeon was commended for her impressive dance line and vocals as a soloist. After IZ*ONE disbanded, she's been establishing her name as a solo artist and became notable for her songs, " KNOCK" and "HUSH RUSH."

Lee Chaeyeon Calls Out RBW Regarding Treatment to Staff

Amid the successful event, Chaeyeon, who is currently under WM Entertainment called out RBW Entertainment, the parent company of the former.

Through the fandom-communicating platform, Bubble, the female solo artist questioned the company's treatment of the artists' staff, saying:

"You know, I really put up with everything else? But right now, I'm so mad that I'm writing, deleting and writing it again. But, whatever, let me be honest.

At this RBW Japan concert, I really wish that they would have more consideration toward the staff who are managing and helping us out. It has become a burden on my chest. I wanted to look pretty on the stage, so I personally paid to have my hair and makeup staff fly to Japan with me."

Apparently, Chaeyeon covered the cost straight from her pocket for her staff's travel expenses to Japan. As of this day, RBW has yet to respond to this.

On Twitter, hereinafter X, fans and netizens expressed their disappointment after reading this and wrote tweets such as:

Amid this, fans comforted the star by leaving positive comments such as:

  • "Today's performance was so much fun and I was touched by your confident appearance!"
  • "Oh, no joke, Lee Chaeyeon!"
  • "Queen Chaeyeon's amazing performance, CHAERISH who continues their beautiful energy, always supports you."
  • "Oh... She's so pretty. It was the right choice!"
  • "I should have been at the scene."

Meanwhile, after IZ*ONE's activities, she debuted as a solo artist and continues her activities. Lee Chaeyeon, who established herself as a solo artist with "KNOCK" in April, is scheduled to make a comeback in early September.
