Kpop’s most famous “Spoiler Fairies”: Somi leaked BLACKPINK’s song, a boy group showed fans their new MV before its release

Here are the kings and queens of spoilers among Kpop idols. 

Waiting for your favorite artists to make a comeback is probably the most “tiring” part of being a Kpop fan. It’s easier if you stan idols who have frequent comebacks, but in the case of groups that have gone on a long “hibernation” like BLACKPINK, fans have to practice their patience really hard. So to make it less difficult for fans to wait, idols would give away comeback spoilers. 

Spoilers can be a snippet of an unreleased song or a choreography, basically anything that has not officially come out yet. There are many idols who have driven fans wild by taking spoilers to a whole new level. Whether it was by mistake or on purpose, these “Spoiler Fairies” are unstoppable. 

Somi and the 15-second snippet: YG’s “nightmare” but the joy of BLACKPINK fans

On March 2, Somi stirred up social media, especially BLACKPINK’s fans when she accidentally leaked a snippet of an unreleased song with Jennie’s voice being heard clearly. BLACKPINK has gone over 500 days without a comeback, so BLINK is the most desperate fandom for new music right now. And instead of BLACKPINK members, it was Somi who technically gave BLINKs the confirmation that BLACKPINK’s comeback is happening. 

Specifically, Somi was having an Instagram live at The Black Label when she happened to enter the wrong studio. As soon as she opened the door, an unreleased song was blasting loudly. Somi then immediately closed the door, but fans could still hear the line: “No you can’t take me down” which is said to sound like Jennie’s voice.

Somi’s spoiler was spread all over social media but was later taken down and copyrighted by YG. This makes it even more certain that BLACKPINK is in the middle of recording for their comeback and YG has registered the copyright for the group’s new music.

VICTON turned on the teaser but mistakenly opened the new MV for fans to watch… for 30 seconds

APINK’s junior group introduced the “historical” teaser introduction when they accidentally turned on the unreleased official MV for fans to see. During a livestream with fans in 2017, VICTON wanted to introduce to fans the product that was about to be released at that time – ‘Remember Me‘ and showed their fans the new MV’s teaser.

Especially the male idol was not aware that he was giving a spoiler but just sang very innocently. It was only when Beomgyu yelled at him that Taehyun suddenly realized and stopped singing.
