• Fans Upset at Starship Entertainment For Unfair Treatment Towards MONSTA X After Seeing IVE's Luxurious Apartment

    On April 11, IVE revealed their dorm to the public on a reality show called "Omniscient Point Of Interference". This is the first time since their debut that the public has seen the group's luxury apartment with their own eyes.

    Unlike many other rookie groups, IVE has enjoyed very good living conditions, even the dream of many other colleagues.

    The girls revealed that the apartment has 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a combined kitchen, a living room, and a room separated from the wall.

    IVE members also share how they separate rooms and explain that room arrangement is up to each person's personal preference.

    Immediately after this episode aired, many netizens and fans started arguing about whether Starship Entertainment should treat MONSTA X better since they are IVE's senior group.

    Netizens commented, "I want MONSTA X to be treated better", "Starship Entertainment should also take care of MONSTA X, not just IVE", "Their dorm is more luxurious than MONSTA X's", "MONSTA" X is a sunbaenim" and "they're famous too, please treat them better."

    On the contrary, other comments suggested that MONSTA X should not be mentioned in an IVE post.

    Moreover, the most popular member of IVE, Jang Won Young, has earned a lot of money for the company, so it is not surprising that IVE is treated like this.

    But it seems that many fans of MONSTA X have overreacted because the group's spiritual life is equally invested, even better than the juniors.

    The group's dormitory was once in the press with an entire gym right inside.

    The gym is located in the living room on the first floor to serve the members' fitness training needs. In addition, there is a luxurious kitchen like a studio.
