in  april,  the  pre-release  single  MANIAC  set  the  stage  for  STUPID  CUPID's  highly  anticipated  mini  album.  the  company  teased  the  comeback  with  a  brief  snippet  of  the  song,  reassuring  fans  that  all  members  were  in  top  form  and  ready  to  deliver  a  flawless  performance.  over  the  course  of  four  weeks,  the  song  was  promoted  extensively,  building  excitement  for  the  upcoming  album  release.

MANIAC  was  produced  entirely  by  H.EUI,  also  known  as  MIGHTY  DEVIL's  HERO.  its  release  was  met  with  great  enthusiasm,  quickly  accumulating  millions  of  views  and  garnering  widespread  acclaim.  despite  facing  tough  competition,  the  song  managed  to  secure  four  wins  during  its  promotional  period,  maintaining  the  group's  strong  track  record.  while  it  fell  short  of  surpassing  their  previous  pre-released  single,  which  accumulated  eight  music  show  wins  in  total,  MANIAC  nonetheless  solidified  the group's  position  as  a  powerhouse  in  the  industry.

tracklist.

MANIAC ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ — ( written by H.EUI, prod. by H.EUI )

the music video analysis.

the  music  video  opens  with  a  dark,  atmospheric  scene  where  shadows  dance  against  a  backdrop  of  flickering  candlelight.  we  then  see  the  members  of  STUPID  CUPID,  each  embodying  a  different  facet  of  obsession,  surrounded  by  lavish  surroundings.

as  the  music  begins,  the  scene  transitions  to  a  house surrounded by vines,  where  the  members  are  depicted  in  various  scenarios  that  illustrate  different  forms  of  obsession.  one  member,  JEANNE,  is  seen  meticulously  arranging  photographs  of  her  love  interest,  while  another  —VIVA—  stares  longingly  at  a  locked  door,  symbolising  the  desire  to  possess  what  lies  beyond.  TOMIE  is  shown  lost  in  a  reverie,  surrounded  by  scattered  photographs  and  mementoes  of  her  love  interest.  her  gaze  is  distant  and  unfocused  as  she  retreats  further  into  her  own  world,  oblivious  to  the  outside  surroundings. 

in  CHESKA's  scene,  she's  shown  in  a  dimly  lit  room  adorned  with  flickering  candles  and  scattered  with  handwritten  notes  and  crumpled  papers.  she's  shown  engaging  in  repetitive  rituals,  such  as  writing  love  letters  or  composing  messages  on  her  phone,  only  to  delete  them  and  start  over  again  in  a  desperate  quest  for  perfection. 

AIMEE's  seems  to  be  the  most  heartbreaking  one,  as  broken  objects  are  scattered  around�� her  room.  these  represent  the  aftermath  of  a  heated  argument,  with  shadows  cast  against  the  walls  mimicking  the  silhouette  of  a  looming  rival.  most  of  the  broken  things  are  on  the  other  side  of  the  room,  signalling  that  it  was  she  who  started  the  fight. 

interwoven  with  these  scenes  are  shots  of  the  group  performing  the  song  in  a  dimly  lit  room,  their  intense  gazes  and  dynamic  choreography  adding  to  the  sense  of  urgency  and  desire.

as  the  song  reaches  its  climax,  the  scenes  escalate  in  intensity,  with  flashes  of  the  members  obsessively  counting  down  the  moments  until  they  can  be  reunited  with  their  object  of  desire.  the  house  becomes  a  maze  of  mirrors,  reflecting  their  fragmented  psyche  and  inner  turmoil.

finally,  as  the  music  fades  out,  we  see  the  members  standing  in  front of the house,  their  expressions  a  mix  of  longing  and  determination.  the  camera  pans  out,  revealing  it's  engulfed  in  flames,  a  visual  representation  of  the  destructive  power  of  obsession.

the  music  video  shows  a  lingering  shot  of  the  house  burning  against  the  night  sky,  leaving  viewers  with  a  sense  of  unease  and  the  haunting  melody  of  MANIAC  echoing  in  their  minds. the last couple of seconds of the music video is silent, with the sound of fire slightly heard in the background, when suddenly a melodic whistle is heard before the scene shows members turning around when the video cuts off.

⸻ ⠀⠀⠀ ❝ in the depths of the NIGHT's EMBRACE, the CUPIDS found themselves ensnared by a promise of love both intense and mysterious. trading their soul for affection beyond compare, the CUPIDS were consumed by obsession's relentless grip. yet, in breaking free, they discovered the true cost of such fervent desire. emerging from shadows, they vowed to seek a love untainted, guided by the glimmer of hope for purer affection ❞

YOU’RE WATCHING : CAN WE PLEASE TALK ABOUT LIGHT UP ENTERTAINMENT?

— # ib : @anqelblccm. midnight theories on yt.

— # warnings : mentions of child abuse, sexual assault, child exploitation, abuse of power, overworking. food restriction.

𓍢 ✷ꜜ ࣪ . INTRO !

❝  pretty much every third gen kpop fan has heard of 4TUNE. one of the biggest boy groups not only of their generation but of kpop overall, its hard to meet a kpop fan who doesn’t know them. with their success however also came a hard road of mistreatment and abuse from their company LIGHT UP ENTERTAINMENT. while harmonies and fans with a heart are thankful that 4TUNE’s contract was recently bought by GLASSHOUSE INC, it begs the question of what is going to happen to the other groups under the company. will their contracts be bought as well? will light up go bankrupt? will we ever hear from them again?  ❞

𓍢 ✷ꜜ ࣪ . THE HISTORY OF LIGHT UP ENT !

❝  LIGHT UP ENTERTAINMENT was established in november 4th, 2012 by ceo HAN JINWOO. a man who had been fresh out of high school, he didn’t want to have to get a real job, and being the spoiled brat that he is convinced his very wealthy parents to buy him a company for him to run. LIGHT UP would come together very sloppily and unprofessionally, however, with JINWOO’s charms he managed to create an image of this “perfect” company for trainees to be under. he wanted perfect idols, idols who’d listen to him no matter what, and he managed to almost get his way with that. the company would manage three groups under it before the start of its downfall in early 2024 due to allegations of abuse, sexual assault, among many other things would come to light.  ❞

𓍢 ✷ꜜ ࣪ . 4TUNE !

❝  LIGHT UP ENTERTAINMENT’s most seuccessful group, as well as its first group, 4THNE would put the company on the map. it would unfortunately be due to 4TUNE’s success that the members of IN BLOOM and ASTERIX would audition for the company, with no idea of the things that would go on behind closed doors. the boys were mistreated severely due to JINWOO pushing the idea that success was pain and that hurting constantly was the price of fame. it would be due to the members of 4TUNE speaking out and member KAIZ specifically suing the company for abuse that LIGHT UP’s problems would come to light.  ❞

𓍢 ✷ꜜ ࣪ . IN BLOOM !

❝  IN BLOOM is a south korean girl group under LIGHT UP ENTERTAINMENT. the second group to come out of LIGHT UP, the girls would originally be known for their cutesy/girl crush concept. they would make their debut on may 3rd, 2018 with the youngest member being only fourteen years old and the oldest seventeen. the ages of the girls alone would spark controversy amongst netizens that was carefully covered up by the company. however, when the oldest member would turn eighteen is when netizens would especially raise their concern for the safety of the group.

when IN BLOOM’s oldest member MIYEON would turn eighteen in 2019, the group’s concept would drastically change from its once cutesy concept to one that was mature, way too mature for any of the members, especially the maknae. with all this criticism and extra focus on the group, fans started to notice bruises on the girls. hashtags would begin flooding the internet only to be taken down quickly allegedly because LIGHT UP threatened legal action.

IN BLOOM would continue to comeback despite the concern around the girls safety. however, they would have their last comeback in may of 2023, and have not been heard since. fans are concerned about the girls safety as 4TUNE has brought up a lot of concerning things about the safety of LIGHT UP. fans can only wonder what the girls are going through if they are trapped.  ❞

𓍢 ✷ꜜ ࣪ . ASTERIX !

❝  ASTERIX is the second boy group under LIGHT UP ENTERTAINMENT and the last one that we know of at the moment ( surely with 4TUNE leaving, the company is scrambling to find more trainees to debut ). this group is also the group that never really hid how badly they were being treated, because it was so normalized. ASTERIX is a nine member boy group that formed through survival show STAR BOY. they woupd make their debut on february 12th, 2022, fans speculate that LIGHT UP knew that 4TUNE would be exposing them soon and created the survival show to trap trainees under the company in case they tried to leave. ASTERIX is LIGHT UP’s insurance in a sense.

because the mistreatment that happens during survival shows, especially minors has become so normalized, no one really spoke up or necessarily saw a problem with how the ASTERIX boys as well as the other trainees were treated theoughout the show. food was would be offered only as a reward to the winning team, losing teams had to sleep all in the gymnasium rather than the dorms. trainees would be sporting bruises throughout performances and added scenes but it was brushed over as just boys “roughhousing.”

the mistreatment of the boys did not only take place on the show, but is actually still going on to this day. on december 5th, 2023, ASTERIX would have their fourth comeback of the year, following four mini albums and a single the year before. and before the news of 4TUNE leaving LIGHT UP was announced, it was revealed that ASTERIX was having yet another comeback on march 30th. their members are all born between 2003 and 2004 all barely adults. the boys are currently being extremely overworked, and because of their contract, fans are unsure if they even have to option to leave LIGHT UP.   ❞

𓍢 ✷ꜜ ࣪ . CONCLUSION !

❝  it is safe to say that fans are extremely concerned about the wellbeing and safety of the remaining groups and trainees under LIGHT UP ENTERTAINMENT following 4TUNE terminating their contracts with the company. fans have been spreading the hashtags #SAVEINBLOOM and #SAVEASTERIX. whether you are a harmony, poppy, or cosmo, please understand that we are genuinely concerned about the remaining 4TUNE groups. please help us make a big enough reaction to actually incite change.  ❞

THEORY OF LOVE ; 4TUNE 1ST GLASSHOUSE MINI ALBUM

HEART STEALER VER. ib: @drm-rs.

COMING SOON . . . ???

[glasshcvse]

ib: @bluwavez. tw: mentions mistreatment and exploitation.

after nearly eight years under LIGHT UP ENTERTAINMENT, all six members of 4TUNE have terminated their contracts and have signed with GLASSHOUSE INC.

the move comes from years of exploitation and mistreatment among other things by LIGHT UP and their staff, with talks of a lawsuit underway sometime in the near future.

4TUNE is LIGHT UP’s most successful act in the history of the company, and while the company still has other artists under it, harmonies are excited to see the downfall of the company.

members JITAE and JAEHO would post on instagram on behalf of the other members to show their excitement of leaving LIGHT UP, fans are excited to see what is in store for 4TUNE under GLASSHOUSE.

all six members showed up to the contract signing looking rightfully exhausted. harmonies (fans) noted that members YUYEON, JIANHAO and KAIZ looked especially on edge, with KAIZ being pretty much shielded by the others the entire time.

1. THEY’RE FINALLY FREE OMG.

2. they look so exhausted :/

3. SO COMEBACK WHEN ????!!

WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS ON THIS?

tw: child abuse, child exploitation, grooming.

❪﹝ ฺ★˒ 4TUNE ﹙ 4곡조 ; pronounced ATTUNE ﹚❫ is a south korean boy group formed and managed by LIGHT UP ENTERTAINMENT. originally known as a predebut group called DRAGON BOYS ( due to all of the members being born in 2000, making dragon their chinese zodiac sign ), despite their young age, the six members XIN, JITAE, YUYEON, JAEHO, JIANHAO, and KAIZ would quickly cement themselves as an act other third gen groups should be worried about; being the fastest group to achieve a perfect all kill, and winning best new artist and a dasaeng for song of the year at the mama awards just months after their debut.

like everything else, 4TUNE’s highs were also accompanied by lows. behind the scenes, the boys were pressured to be nothing short of perfect. being LIGHT UP ENTERTAINMENT’s only act, they were constantly forced to practice and make several comebacks and appearances to uphold their reputation.

the company was starving for fame and more specifically money. they would sell the boys personal schedules and sometimes even the hotel rooms they were staying at to get extra cash here and there. the boys had no privacy at all.

just before their first comeback, their original seventh member YESEONG would be pulled out of the company by his parents due to them being concerned about his safety. after seeing the other members with bruises YESEONG’s parents would also try to contact the other parents to let them see what was truly going on. but the boys were already so accustomed to it that they convinced their parents to let them stay. after all, they had been told that this was the price to fame, and that every other company would do the same.

the company would be under control of 4TUNE from their debut in 2016 until early 2024 when their contract would be terminated by LIGHT UP, harmonies are still awaiting the news of the group being bought by another company.

❪﹝ ฺ★˒ YUYEON ﹙ 임유연 ; lim yu yeon ﹚❫ is the leader of boy group 4TUNE born march 31st, 2000. he started training because he loved dancing, he went to the audition with his friend YESEONG and didn’t really expect much from it but got accepted anyways. he’s always been very quiet and shy, the most introverted in the group. to be honest he’s never really been very confident in his abilities as a leader; and it’s often speculated that he was chosen for such role because he was the least likely to talk back and protest to the things happening to the group. despite being really quiet off stage, he really tends to shine on stage. many harmonies say that he’s the member that drew them to 4TUNE.
