1. Make plenty of references to Korea & paint it as a political & cultural threat to the US:
BTS are pressured by Korea ->Korea is 'squeezed' by the US -> BTS has a political role in Korea -> They will appear in the UN Assembly. 😱
The picture: BTS is a tool against the US.

2. Make it look like the President first appointed them as Envoys (they're 'Ambassadors' of Loius Vuitton) then changed the law on the military service to induce to think of premeditation.
Law changed Dec 2020. Envoys appointment was July 2021.
The picture, again: puppets.

3. Make plenty of references to Hybe/Big Hit as an economic threat.
Paint it as if their only purpose is to acquire companies in the US, as if they weren't a major company before (bought Pledis, KOZ, YG Plus, etc since May 2020).
The Picture: they be taking jobs in the US.

4. Discredit their fandom, ARMY.
'Religion', 'tactics', 'fervor', 'under scrutiny', 'manipulation', 'object of adulation', 'stems from k-pop culture'.
Picture painted: k-pop creates a religion around their artists that makes fans do things equated to religious fanatics.

5. Bring in an 'expert', who you've hired to write in your magazine before, to provide a certain validity to your speculations, without actually confirming anything you've stated before.
Picture painted: we serious magazine. We got experts.
(I'm not blaming said expert here)

6. Hint at the fact that supporting this band or growing an interest in them is futile, as they're not going to last long. Make it the headline of your piece so after they don't know what you're talking about, that's what remains. 'Oh, they're gonna disband soon'.
7. Include a vestige of well checked facts about the accomplishments of the band so you can refer to them as 'good journalism'.
Picture painted: we good reporters.

8. Take any chance you got to misrepresent the band as youths having a good time and not being aware of what is truly going on by not elaborating on their modesty and including the comments on burnout & hangovers (as common in that country). What a picture.
If this hasn't served the purpose of making you realise we still have a point to prove in the US markets, I don't know what will, ARMY.
We gotta stream the hell out of this Remix this week. Set it as a personal goal not to rely on sales & prove our point.
Love, J. 💜💜
