On September 27, 2025, ENHYPEN’s Ni-ki raised concerns among fans after his late-night Weverse Live. The youngest member casually mentioned that he had only four hours of sleep before heading back to work. He also compared their situation to a meme about office workers who barely rest before returning to their jobs. It seemed like a lighthearted remark, but it quickly triggered alarms within the fandom. The update highlighted how demanding the group’s current schedule has become. The septet manages between constant travel, filming, concerts, and brand activities. Ni-ki hinted at how little downtime the members have had lately. His words reminded fans of the immense pressure idols face behind the glamour of global fame. As translated by user @ahgasela on X, the singer said,"i have to wake up in 4 hours… i have to go to work again in 4 hours… you know that meme about coming home from work, lying down on the bed for just a moment and then immediately heading out again? That’s exactly what ENHYPEN’s schedule is like these days."Soon after, social media was flooded with reactions. Many fans expressed anger at HYBE and BELIFT, accusing the companies of overworking ENHYPEN. They pointed to similarities with BTS’s demanding 2018–2019 schedule. The Mic Drop group had earlier admitted they were close to disbanding due to burnout. An X user, @rosiediangelo99, wrote,Rose Min⁷, CPA @rosiediangelo99LINKThey shouldn't overwork these boys! Have they learned nothing from 2018-2019 BTS? Bts almost disband because they were absolutely exhausted and overworked.ENGENEs (the group's fandom) argued that the members now seem to be facing the same risks, as they are running on little sleep and endless commitments. While some fans acknowledged that the boys love performing and meeting their fans, the general mood online was one of frustration and worry.lucky lay 🦇 @tteokboheeLINKLMAOOOOO but seriously i feel sorry for them :')) they're constantly working so so hard they deserve the bestirina⭒ @_lovehee_LINKeven though they genuinely love what they do, the reality of their job demands so many sacrifices. endless rehearsals, constant travel, back to back appearances..it's a cycle where rest is almost a luxury for them. it breaks my heart knowing how much it costs them physically +nebula 𝜗ৎ @KookChimrollsLINK@ahgasela isn’t this like BTS’s schedule around the 2018-2019 times when they were overworked asf?
