TXT fans push BigHit petition

TXT fans used X on May 20 to circulate a petition pressing BigHit Music for what they described as fairer promotion and treatment of the five-member K-pop group TOMORROW X TOGETHER, or TXT. The posts linked to a Change.org page that asked the label to “protect and promote TXT equally,” echoing complaints from parts of the group’s fan base about marketing, scheduling and visibility. BigHit Music had not posted a public response on its announcement page as of May 20. The company’s official TXT site and Weverse notices, however, continued to list current concert and livestream activity for the group. ### What exactly were fans sharing on May 20? An X post highlighted in social-media monitoring on May 20 linked directly to an online petition aimed at BigHit Music and framed the campaign as a push for better treatment of TXT. The post drew engagement in the form of likes and reposts, according to the social briefing provided for this story. The petition itself appeared on Change.org under the title “Demand Bighit to protect and promote TXT equally.” The page described the campaign as a fan-led call for “fairness, equality, and better” support for TOMORROW X TOGETHER. ### What does the petition say fans want from BigHit? The Change.org page said fans believe TXT is “not receiving the same level of promotion and protection as other groups under Bighit’s management.” It called on the company to provide stronger support for the act, which debuted under BigHit in 2019 and is one of the label’s core artists. (change.org) The social briefing tied the petition push to complaints about touring, marketing and platform visibility. (change.org) Those points were described in fan posts rather than in a public statement from BigHit Music. ### What is BigHit Music saying publicly right now? BigHit Music’s English-language announcement page showed “No Posts” as of the latest crawl, indicating no visible public statement there addressing the petition. (change.org) The company’s main artist page lists BTS, TOMORROW X TOGETHER, CORTIS and Lee Hyun among its roster. TXT’s official BigHit site remained active on May 20 with album and artist information, while Weverse notices carried current event updates rather than any response to fan criticism. (change.org) ### What official TXT activities are on the schedule? Weverse published a notice for “2026 TXT MOA CON IN JAPAN: LIVE VIEWING” saying the event will be shown in theaters around the world on May 24. The notice described the screening as tied to the Nagoya concert that opens the 2026 TXT MOA CON IN JAPAN run. (ibighit.com) BigHit’s tour page for TOMORROW X TOGETHER also lists an extensive run of past and recent dates across South Korea, the United States and Asia, including stops in Seoul, San Jose, Los Angeles, Dallas, Rosemont, Atlanta, Washington, Newark, Hong Kong, Singapore, Tokyo, Taipei, Osaka and Kuala Lumpur. (txt.ibighit.com) ### Has there been earlier fan criticism of BigHit’s handling of TXT? Sportskeeda and Koreaboo both reported earlier in 2026 on fan backlash to closely scheduled comeback plans involving BTS, TXT and another BigHit act, CORTIS. (weverse.io) Those reports cited fan concerns that overlapping release timing could hurt promotions, though they were third-party accounts of online reaction rather than statements from BigHit. (ibighit.com) The May 20 petition push fits into that broader pattern of online organizing by fans seeking changes in how the label handles TXT’s releases and visibility, based on the petition text and social posts reviewed for this story. That connection is an inference from the public materials, not a statement by BigHit Music. ### What happens next? May 24 is the next dated public milestone on BigHit’s official channels, with the live viewing event for 2026 TXT MOA CON IN JAPAN scheduled in theaters worldwide, according to Weverse. (sportskeeda.com) Any formal response to the petition would most likely appear on BigHit Music’s announcement channels, the company website or TXT’s Weverse page if the label chooses to address it publicly.
