    Ofc, didnt you know? Armys are such over analyzing obsessed children and only non armys have the intelligence to discern the world as the rosy koomayah get together it is! Welcome to the joke that is the kpop community

    idek how the topic diverted to how "bts" is supposed to be behind the scenes when it's obvious as fuck these brands are taking advantage of the BTS brand name and trying to misled their consumers. even in my country so many small f&b establishments are doing it despite BTS having trademarks registered here. the users here are a whole level of dumb and delusional. and i'm speaking as someone who actually has experience in branding so all yall dumbasses pls stfu and stop making yourselves look like clowns. it's ok to admit that brands are leeching off bts the group, so stop lying to yourself these brands are doing this while thinking of "behind the scenes" lmfao.  moreover the vivo ad didn't even use "behind the scenes" and did Be There Soon instead LMAO 

    onehallyu has truly reached its bottom. we used to have intelligent users but now it's been infiltrated by dumbass kpop fans who clearly need to go back to school and develop some critical thinking skills

    Oops, I thought that was the total sales for their McDonald stint. Also there’s also the concert team, company, management team getting cuts from this sales. Not just the group members. Was this included with Merch sales and other revenues or just online concert sales?

    1) no one said anything about the division of cuts. no sure why you had to bring it up. i'm sure everyone is aware there is a whole team of people behind these concerts. 

    2) only online concert ticketing revenue.

    IMO remixes and instrumentals should not count towards sales for the original single, also radio plays should just be abolished completely since they are so easily manipulated by companies.

    might as well call out playlisting too. pay enough money to spotify and they'll put your song on the top of every curated playlist on their platform lmao. hell, pay for spotify ads! and every ad will count as a stream! 

    oh, then why not we talk about influencer marketing too? labels pay tiktokers huge bucks to use their artists' songs

    in other words, the entire industry uses these tactics to game the charts. the thing that is broken is the SYSTEM.

    in fact, the most organic thing these days is grassroots voluntary-driven consumption (and no i'm not talking about taylor putting sad face emojis and begging her fans to buy her lonely vinyls) but everyone is not ready to have that conversation because their faves are white and can do no wrong :)

    Look at this video

    The 'Kick It' cover was tragic. Karina was the only who could work it. I was shocked at this level from S.M. It was already shocking to see this level from K-pop idol in the first place.

    Boy group hard dance is not essential to girl group still, it showed they lacked versatility and the skill needed.

    to be fair i think SM’s forte has always been about vocals and visuals rather than dance , rap and performance; and aespa are still rookies who have lots of room to grow and improve

    i just wish they wouldn’t force titles on their idols if their skill levels are not up for it, because it just gives them unnecessary stress and scrutiny, and i find that so unfair to these poor girls 

    but yea ok that video was definitely painful to watch...

    Why are people obsessed with main dancers that have like 10 years of dance lessons behind them (as well as groups that just focus on performance, fuck 3rd and 4th gen). The girl is a good dancer, shes the main dancer. Its just giving me 2nd gen vibes. Stayc dont have one either

    or maybe don’t dismiss those main dancers who spent their life honing their skills in order to defend your fave?? personally i think karina makes a very good centre, her visuals are insane — but i was honestly shocked when i read the comments in this thread saying she’s a main dancer. if SM wants to insist on calling her a main dancer then whatever but you resorting to dismissing other main dancers is so pathetic. by doing this the one actually being unfair to her is SM. they’re giving her unnecessary stress by forcing a title upon her where she pales in comparison to her fellow peers. 

     

    edit: your comparison of stayc is not even relevant considering they didn’t even bother to appoint one member as an official main dancer

    There is nothing wrong with the choreography. It's fun & cute. They were boring tho. Ningning has the best stage presence out of the four, and even she fell short. Honestly, the girls aren't ready for hard choreography now, Katrina is the main dancer & she can barely keep up the lead dancers of this generation. Maybe when they all improve. And the choreography doesn't have to be hard, I'm honestly tired of these choreography. I need something that is easy & fun to learn. They can improve their stage presence & they're good to go.

    what??? she’s a main dancer??? dunno how she got the main dancer title, happened to see a fancam of hers dancing to this song a couple of days ago... and i honestly wasn’t impressed? i dun see any main dancer quality at all. if she’s really a main dancer she definitely needs to continue working hard to actually look like one.

    technically if they're moving somewhere else (even under hybe) then gfriend is terminated their contract with source music. all the sub labels are independent.

    however i agree it's unnecessary stress. at the same time i'm holding on to the little bit of hope that they're not disbanding as a group, since there's hasn't been an official announcement.

    that’s exactly my point. there wouldn’t be a need for source to announce the termination. i’m not even talking about the technicalities. just announce there’s a reshuffling after the internal transfer process is completed. 

  8. 4 minutes ago, satoori said:

    i guess hybe would announce something like that...who have yet to say anything about all of this..

    my point is if there’s really an internal reshuffle then we wouldn’t even have to deal with this termination of contracts announcement. it’s putting unnecessary distress to their fans and i don’t think source music is that cruel or stupid, lol.

    this is truly unexpected o.o i'm also going to wait for more confirmation tho...it seems to early for gfriend to disband. they're still going strong. they were gaining great momentum in japan before covid.

    back when i bighit (hybe) acquired source music i assumed that one day somu would be completely dissolved under bighit (hybe) one day. perhaps this is the case here... gfriend is moving to bighit or some other company under hybe. i don't know. all of this seems so random... 

    unless there's something we're missing about the members. i guess if it's something "scandalous" it will be revealed eventually.

    an internal reshuffling doesn’t warrant an announcement of termination of contracts. they would just announce that reshuffle if that’s really the case.

    well every single solo or feature opportunity has always incited fanwars, from the acting to the collabs to the stages...best not to dwell on it. I originally posted my findings as a debunking of the "they all auditioned" thing, I just pointed out why fans had possibly interpreted it as that. It wasn't meant as anything else.

    fans will do anything to paint their fave in a better light, let’s not put it on articles. 

  11. 13 minutes ago, Eremit said:

    huh? I never said that? I'm sure they're using it as a dick measuring contest, they always do. Plus probably as an example of Bighit hating Taehyung or whatever. I'm just saying the statements are vague enough for people to interpret whatever they want into it, which explains why there's so many different narratives around this.

    interpretations are after all only interpretations but they shouldn’t by touted around as truths/facts. this is where the slope gets slippery and before you know it, it’ll be hard to debunk. do u know how many people still believe hobi was initially from jyp? instead of giving excuses shouldn’t we be clearing it up and spread the FACTS instead 

    and if fans wanna brag about tae’s first gig in hwarang, just the fact that he snagged that should be enough. there’s no need to drag in the other members in a “my oppa is better than yours” competition, esp when the theory is not even confirmed and had been interpreted VERY liberally

    and just so you know, even then there were already fanwars with a fraction insisting jin should be the one getting the gig. ugh whatever, i don’t want to revisit that

    yeah I think these reports don't actually contradict each other. To be fair, the report doesn't say that Taehyung is the only one who responded and obviously they wouldn't mention it if anybody else had also auditioned and they'd picked one over the other (imagine the fanwars), so I guess that's up to fans' imagination. I do enjoy the idea of Suga auditoning for a kdrama, just the image of it is hilarious lol.

    anyways, I don't see acting in BTS' immediate future until enlistments begin. I think as soon as possible (covid-wise) they'll do a last big world tour, and I'm really crossing my fingers for that - they can do the biggest stadium tour in Kpop history easily and I really want them to have that achievement too before they go on break.

    to make it clear i just want to say to be fair nothing had also explicitly stated that all members auditioned, so i’m not sure why people are spreading that around as the gospel of truth. sure, maybe some members auditioned, but as you’ve said, we dunno that. and if you don’t realise solos are using that narrative as some sort of dick measuring contest then idk what else to say.

    I googled this and apparently there was an article/interview where the director said that BangPD said they could have a BTS member and they picked Taehyung. But I don't think that means that all of them auditioned (as you said some would have had no interest whatsoever) more like the drama, which was casting a lot of idols, offering a role to someone in BTS (a rising top group at the time) and then going with Taehyung. Not that Suga for example auditioned for it (lol). I reckon a lot of idol casting is done like that tbh, with drama producers reaching out to companies, hey this role is open to an idol actor, do you have someone interested in auditioning.

    i googled around too and this is what i found! the director mentioned about his daughter being a fan. he also said he reached out to BH and tae was the one who responded that he would like to consider acting

    Isn't it quite different though? These people are wasting the milk, what you're talking about are people who give away the albums they bought to people who want them. I know one time where a fanbase/fansite mass-bought an album and proceeded to give the album away to fans who can't afford to buy one...

    yeah exactly, it’s worse. at least the albums can be donated to other fans who can’t afford. if the qr code is on the outside of the milk bottle fans would still be able to donate them to orphanages/those who can actually drink them 

    just throwing them down the drain... is a huge waste of animal resources, cows are being used their milk for this shit lmfao 

    this is just toxic and wasteful buying culture and i’m glad they got called out for it.

    Aah okay , well that was the early days then. Even in their commercials we can see how nervous they are about speaking in public. It is not uncommon for artists to be shy or withdrawn when they start, but with experience and years passing by they can become more at ease. However, from my own observation it seems the opposite for Tae. I really don't think he likes being in the limelight that often. He really loves music and performing on stage, but that is not the same adrenaline you get from being in a film. 

    Again this is just my thinking, nothing concrete.

    i doubt that story is true. i’ve been a fan for so long and this is the first time i’ve heard of bh sending all the members to audition. why would joon or yoongi even want to act anyway? they have ZERO interest in acting even in bts own content lol. the story i’ve heard  is that director(?) or writer(?)’s daughter is a fan of tae which made the director/writer take notice and thus decided to cast him

    this seems to be some urban legend that got passed around like how “j-hope was a singer initially and v was a rapper” was passed around with no ounce of truth in it

    at this point, i suspect SM is 100% trying to use blackpink's marketing strategy.... ie periods of spam, followed by periods of infrequent updates to "build hype" and create this "luxury" image for the members... 

    bp pumped out quite a lot when they were rookies tho. at least, i remember they had boombayah, whistle, playing with fire before yg did the whole starving strategy.

    I didn't read about the fact the HYBE tried to bought it where is it mentionned ? :0

    i do think most of us are aware of consent but there juste THIS kind of group that doesn't give a fuck. Or are too obsessed to think clearly.

    (Also Jimin biased stan asseeeemble ! Lol)

    Don't worry i know, that why i put Akgaes between " " ^^

    yep the funny thing is the designer revealed it himself and boasted about it lol

    The article was written by a Jimin solo stan and framed as if other member akgaes were mad that Jimin was getting attention or something. In fact that's what a lot of solos are assuming is why people didn't want the auction to proceed, instead of it just being overall a creepy goddamned idea. The designer even refused to sell it to Big Hit in favor of this weirdness.

    The hashtag was in response to these weirdos because we're so fucking sick of solo stans of all kinds in our fandom creating issues constantly. They've only gotten worse over the years because we used to just block and ignore them, so they grew in their own echo chamber bubbles.

    as a jimin-biased stan lemme say these jimin solos are all fucked in the head and they have lots of growing up to do if all they care is about “spreading his name” instead of being concerned he’s being exploited and violated. did a lot of unfollowing on my tl yesterday, many solos sure did exposed themselves lmao

    the fact that:

    1) designer refused to sell it to BH despite BH offering to buy it 

    2) there was NO consent obtained for this piece of sale 

    3) the marketing and selling point is not about the significance of how and where the hanbok was worn, the meanings behind the design. it’s about jimin’s “sweat and body odour,” and that tells you the certain kind of demographic they’re aiming for in this sale 

    4) the designer would have done this regardless of which member lmao. he doesn’t want to spread hanbok culture awareness and enlist jimin’s help, don’t kid yourselves. he just so happens to own jimin’s top and wants to capitalise off it by being an utter creepy douchenozzle 

    the fandom needs to undertake MAJOR HARD lessons on the meanings of consent and ethics coz this has crossed the fucking line for me

  19. the people being mad about the auction cancellation are jimin akgaes lol. OP clearly doesn’t know the situation and is just posting bullshit 

    the designer is a disgusting opportunistic asshole trying to capitalise off jm’s “sweat and body odour” the money isn’t even going to charity. most importantly, consent was not obtained from BH/JM himself. end of story. people defending this auction are fucked in their heads and should be ashamed of themselves for choosing to die on this hill for a creepy designer instead of JM himself 

    bts also did more promoting korean culture in a single idol performance than an auction house who’s selling this hanbok to creepy assholes. spreading culture my ass, they’re just using this excuse to hide behind their actual intentions which is to suck $$ from crazy and creepy kpop fans lmao

    I mean I can definitely tell it's her in the old pics? they're making it sound as if she transformed into a completely different person when the only major difference is prob her eyelids and a professional hair and makeup team? Why are they always comparing current like red carpet/done up photos to old ones?

    If they were to really see their faves with absolutely no makeup on, they probably wouldn't recognize half of them 😂

     

    lol the thing is these supposedly professional plastic surgeons vehemently denied that those old pics are her 😂😂

     

    u said it yourself, the old pics are obviously her that’s why it’s so funny to see these surgeons denying and then deleting the video after

    Mnet is doing entirely too much for a show that is pulling 0.2% in ratings. As if they haven’t tanked their reputation enough already with their Produce shenanigans. At this point I’m convinced the higher ups over there must have a humiliation kink.

    lol they’re obviously aiming at the global audience instead. it’s clear they don’t give a fuck about the domestic audience. they’re doing all these shit so the i-fans can fight amongst each other and thus create more clout (since ifans generally as a whole don’t care about the politics surrounding the show, they only care about getting to see their oppas)
