"just fyi, sommungchi is somi’s fandom name since sixteen/pd101 era but bcs she changed her label thats why it was never officially announced. all these past year she already addressed her fans as sommungchi, only today tbl made it official with a little change in spelling," explained a fan on X.
"official fan club? you telling me Somi didn’t get one before ? but I knew of sommunchi nickname for years like I’m talking first vlog series Somi mentioned it being official like what TOOK THIS LONG OMG SOMI RUN AWAY NOW," remarked another netizen.
"What we have been demanding for 6 years came by in just 36 hours, this is insane," reacted another fan.

"Somi getting a fandom name and lightstick after 3654 years in the game. Does this mean that her company finally found at least an EP full of music for her? It's been four years since her only album and two years since her only EP. That's shameful," said another netizen on X.
"tbl giving us the bare minimum once again but hey they're giving us something," added another fan.
"Official fan club name and lightstick? Wondering if Somi renewed contract early but with conditions," wondered another netizen on X.
