GirlBye 27,959 Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 Hyunseung remains silent amidst growing controversy + angered fans show changes in fandom culture Tuesday, February 23, 2016 b2st, hyunseung No comments Article: Jang Hyunseung the troublemaker? Silence isn't the answerSource: Mydaily via Naver1. [+3,299, -80] Doojoon-ah, you're suffering2. [+2,646, -76] All of the hard work that B2ST worked to build up their image has been shattered in a moment... I don't think their fans are in any position to be calmed down with their rage right now...3. [+2,293, -75] I'm a B2UTY and I just can't shield this. Whether he had bad intentions or not, he should've said at least something over the past four years. He should've given fans a reason to trust him.4. [+2,281, -139] Why is he acting like Yoon Eun Hye?;;;;;5. [+1,992, -65] This is a problem because it's not only himself that's getting hate but he's dragging the other members into this too~6. [+579, -23] Hyunseung-ah, you picked the wrong concept for yourself. You think you're Hollywood but this is your reality so wake up ã…‹ He must've thought all the trouble makers in Hollywood looked so cool but his actions are getting him nothing but hate7. [+503, -24] This is getting really bad if even his own fans are mad at him...- Poll: What are your thoughts on B2ST Hyunseung's attitude controversy?Out of line to the fans 78% 2,568 votesMaybe he has his reasons 14% 449 votesI don't know 8% 262 votes1. [+105, -0] It could be a coincidence if it happened once or twice but this has been happening consistently for years already. He's crazy. He needs to be kicked out and starved. Kids with the celebrity disease are hopeless.2. [+69, -0] Does a celebrity like this deserve fans?3. [+66, -0] As a rookie, he was thirsty for fan attention but now he thinks of them as a nuisance and wants them to screw off from his private life. I wonder how long this pathetic guy thinks he can act like this.4. [+57, -0] Quit your job, you don't deserve it at all. I'd be embarrassed as a celebrity to have a peer like him.5. [+42, -0] My vote goes to kicking him!!!-Article: Jang Hyunseung's attitude controversy shows changing trends in fandom cultureSource: X Sports News via NateArticle talks about how times have changed in regards to fandom culture and the relationship fans have with their artists. Idols now have to earn the attention of their fans in order to keep them interested while idols in the past were put on a pedestal by their fans. B2ST is given as an example of a group that debuted between the two times in 2009 when groups didn't have to work as hard to earn fans but weren't exactly above their fans either. Fans nowadays are less willing to put up with anything that they feel isn't deserving of their attention as exemplified in this issue since there are so many other groups that are vying for them.1. [+378, -0] Fans are strangers to the artists anyway so their relationship doesn't really matter but who this actually affects are the fellow members of his group. He should just be like Jessica and leave as soon as he can. They've proven that nothing really happens to a group just because you're missing a member.2. [+334, -9] I just feel bad for the other members... he needs to leave if he doesn't want to do this anymore ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹4. [+261, -4] Why do the other members have to suffer because of him? And his company shouldn't even be letting this behavior slide. They're saints for putting up with this at all because I would've punched him already.5. [+19, -1] I honestly think people shouldn't joke about it by calling it a 'celebrity disease'... celebrities might actually be suffering from depression or other mental issues from all that stress.6. [+17, -0] In jobs, there comes a time where you reach a slump and don't want to do anything or even see your co-workers. I understand that... but you shouldn't let those feelings affect your co-workers. He needs to voluntarily leave the group or at least leave as soon as his contract expires...

Onetooth 4,117 Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 What controversy? from my understanding just random things, acting a bit weird on stage (between not caring to doing his own dance moves) and interviews, liking pictures of women in revealing clothing on instagram, and he missed a fanmeet to meet with a women( i think it turned out to be his sister.)

Onetooth 4,117 Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 but wasn't that really old? Just a few months ago I think? But, the fans aren't mad because of anything new. They're mad cause of a bunch of little things that have angered them over the years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grape Soda 12,004 Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 Really hyunseung wtf? I was wondering why doojoon chose Junhyung to be the leader when he is away instead of hyunseung who is oldest after him. Really questioning staning you dude. You are putting beast in their biggest scandal ever. Do you not care about your apparent brothers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JessicaRabbit 6,569 Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 How hard is it to say sorry? get it over and done with You really think anyone wants an apology now? They're demanding it, but we all if he did it'd be, "Omg, he's so fake" or whatever. And he has clarified certain things in the past, but nobody in the kpop fandom knows how to let things go. Since when the thought of kicking out members became so easy to Kpop fans? I think it started when the more successful acts (who most would never have thought would disband as a whole) lost a member, but were still doing well in terms of sales, sound and image. Before, most people would assume that if a top group lost a member (or members), it basically meant the end of the group (which is generally so for small an unknown groups), especially a popular one. There's a bunch of groups whose careers went off the deep end after losing certain members but things have changed over the past couple of years where you have EXO, Girls' Generation, Wonder Girls, KARA, f(x), 9muses, 2PM and more who didn't even blink an eye and are doing just as well. Such big acts losing out on members but still carrying on is now sending a message that if you don't want to be here or that if you're not wanted (by fans), then it's not affecting anyone if you're gone. What controversy? He stopped kissing ass imo. And he's not the only one whose "changed" from the earlier groups, he's just the only one who won't do things in private. The fandom keeps saying that he should cater to his fans, who are majority minors, but neglect the fact that he is no longer a 20 year old boy (He's 27 this year/ 28 in Korea). And TBH, it's way too late for an apology, unless he were to take a hiatus from the group to "deeply reflect" and then go off to do his military service or something.
