Instead of promoting tracks from his album, they allegedly played BTS songs and solo songs from other members. Fans expressed frustration considering the event was dedicated to Maknae's album, not BTS.

While some fans were satisfied with BTS and OT7 songs, expressing enjoyment of jamming to other tracks the majority felt that individual parties for each member should be solely dedicated to them.
