STAYs found these live streams as a source of comfort and have felt their absence since the last broadcast, which took place on May 14, 2023. Due to the time since the latest broadcast, fans were sure they would be returning very soon but were given some unfortunate news.
On August 28, a fan shared a clip from a fansign where Bang Chan confessed that he wanted to do Chan’s Room but that his company told him not to do so.
I can’t do Chan’s Room anymore. So, ummm, I want to actually, but the company says no.

Fans were outraged to learn of this and shared their feelings on social media about the matter, trending #DIV1DISBAND, #JYPEPROTECTSKZ, and #ProtectBangChan in response.
JYP Entertainment artists are split under the label, and Stray Kids are managed by Division 1, leading fans to target the division directly.
i’m sorry we didn’t do enough to protect you, i’m sorry you had to apologize for something that wasn’t your fault, i’m sorry they took your safe space away from you, you deserve better

This is absolutely the energy we need to continue with. Don't get distracted by their damage control drops, or any other tricks. Stand firm and strong for Chan. #STAYingwithChris #BringBackChanniesRoom #BringBackChansRoom #DIV1DISBAND #TreatYourArtistsRight pic.twitter.com/fCExKxPHqA

After the initial outrage, Bang Chan seemed to address fans’ concerns.
During a series of messages on a fan chatting platform, Bang Chan sent a cute photo of himself wearing a towel on his head resembling a sheep’s head with a similar caption.
| Dear U. Bubble Someone may have asked him why he uploaded the photo, to which he responded, “because it’s my decision.”
| Dear U. Bubble Why upload now? Because it’s my decision lol
— Bang Chan
He continues by saying everything is his decision, seeming to indirectly respond to worries that the company forced him to end Chan’s Room.
| Dear U. Bubble Everything is my decision, my rules —— hahahahahahahaha
— Bang Chan
Many fans had previously expressed that they would understand if Bang Chan wanted to stop Chan’s Room himself. However, after these messages, some fans were still not convinced the star decided to end it alone.
do u rly believe after years of doing something he’d just up and leave without any explanation purely bc it was his own decision..? that’s not him.. i’m sorry believe whatever u want.. the proof is out there
— 짜니
y’all are gonna jump me but he could come on bubble and say “it was my own decision” and I would still not believe him, cause I know he would’ve told us. I know he would’ve made a goodbye live. He wouldn’t act like Chan’s room never existed cause he knows it was important.
