Nevertheless, on August 2, viewers were alarmed when the music video for “Accendio”was unexpectedly removed from YouTube.
Despite being produced by Jack Brady and Jordan Roman, the music video for “Accendio”was removed from social media platform X (Twitter) due to a copyright claim. This caused numerous posts to circulate online, alluding to the reasons behind the removal.
In case anyone doesn’t know, Jack Brady and Jordan Roman are two of the songwriters of Accendio.If the mv got taken down they probably have a fairly serious dispute with Starship 😶🌫️ https://t.co/91le1vQTxT pic.twitter.com/XL7UUZygqP

This caused speculation among fans that Starship Entertainment was facing copyright issues with the producers, and raised questions about whether they had neglected to fulfill their obligations to pay song royalties.

it’s only on YouTube and no other services which leads me to think it’s 1) a Starship mistake 2) crazy antis lolla timing which is extra insane given paper trail 3) misunderstanding/deals/people not paid properly 4) why don’t they have a high enough YouTube rep to resolve this? https://t.co/GtU9RWroFg

On December 9, 2021, Jang Wonyoung made an appearance on MBC’s program “Radio Star”and talked about her time as the maknae (youngest member) in the project girl group IZ*ONE.
Despite numerous inquiries about the potential weight of her title, Wonyoung, who debuted with the group at the age of 15, continues to express appreciation for the name.
Despite her previous status as the youngest member, the idol’s maknae position seemed to have diminished upon her debut with IVE on December 1, 2021. Wonyoung revealed, “I was accustomed to always being the youngest among my group. However, in IVE, there is a member who is three years younger than me.”
“I am not accustomed to giving advice to someone younger than myself,”the idol expressed. “I have a desire to impart my knowledge and teach them certain things, but I fear being labeled as an old geezer.”
We would love to hear your opinion on the removal of the music video. Please share your thoughts in the comments section below!
