Fans of the global pop duo TVXQ, nicknamed Cassiopeia, were quick to notice that SM Entertainment planned to have the concert on the same day as the 19th anniversary of the group.
Can't believe they choose 12.26 for a non-related TVXQ! debut day…over an agency thing. Don't you or we, tired of all the disrespect from @SMTOWNGLOBAL to TVXQ? and you still defend this agency? wow
We don't want to vocal but it's crossed the line, disappointing over & over

So not only did TVXQ 2022 never happen, but you're releasing this on the date of TVXQ's 19th anniversary. You're joking. https://t.co/Lr5j8fdeEO

Other netizens were furious that SM Entertainment wasn’t respecting TVXQ despite them being with the company for almost 2 decades.
Very dissapointed
. SM put TVXQ 2022 as a gimmick
. #TVXQ deserves to have their comeback & 19th anniversary event yet they put them on this!! https://t.co/N07pMQSRBl
