As LOONA fans try to figure out what’s next for the girl group, Blockberry Creative has come under fire for seemingly trying to promote a new trainee in the midst of their ongoing financial troubles. The label recently opened up an Instagram account to promote what netizens believe will be an upcoming project girl group.

With a series of photos, Blockberry Creative’s new Instagram account @bbcanotherworld shared an enticing caption with its followers introducing trainee Choi Ye Young.

Hello, it’s Ye Young. I miss all of you guys. Since there’s a transition of seasons, please be careful not to catch a cold!!

Hi everyone:) It’s Ye Young! Thank you for the love from all over the world. I’m reading every message you sent me. ‘Girls Planet 999’ means a lot to me. I learned so much from the show. Also, I was really happy to have an opportunity to be with 98 lovely girls. Above all, thank you for your support. Because of that, I was able to gain courage again. I will continue to work hard for my dream so please look forward to it. Thank you.
