The digital storm had reached a fever pitch, and the silence from LUNE had become a vacuum that the public was desperate to fill. For days, the narrative had been controlled by the Baek family's PR machine and the frenetic energy of the trolls. LUNE had played the part of the wounded party—the victim of a "betrayal" and the target of a corporate ambush. But as the clock struck noon on Tuesday, the silence ended.
