Previously in March, TREASURE was confirmed to begin promotions for their hit b-sidetrack "DARARI" on music shows this April. The song became a viral hit on TikTok and due to this, YG Entertainment was planning on banking on the track's success.
YG Entertainment's announcement made Treasure Makers (TREASURE's fandom) excited. But now May has come and netizens are yet to be graced with a "DARARI" music video. Notably, it seems as fans should no longer anticipate this as promotions for "DARARI" have been canceled.

Following the cancellation news, YG Entertainment has gone on to garner backlash from TREASURE fans. The label became under fire from Treasure Makers as they did not even release an official statement on the cancellation.
For some fans, TREASURE's "DARARI" could have increased the K-Pop group's popularity overseas. Due to this, fans are showing distaste towards YG Entertainment for mishandling the group.
