Anyway, a few quick thoughts before I go work on these podcasts. π«
#itsnotmybusinessbut if your company is in the habit of copy/pasting ideas, better to continue to flop at stealing from HYBE than to try to take a page out of the fraudulent book of SM.
SM failed its way into becoming a subsidiary of the very company that previously tried-
(allegedly) a hostile takeover.
If you want to lie about success you are going to end up a shell of a company right along with them. But you do you, boo-boo. π€·πΎββοΈ
Also #notmybusinessbut, I am prepared to bet money that within three years, we are going to see actual devastation in the industry, as a result of ten years of pay0la and media play not backed by any GENUINE success or popularity.
It's been a long time coming, but the antics of the last ten years especially will be resulting in some massive schadenfreude.
I wonder if BB will have the same energy to self-read that they did after flying an inept and biased hack to Korea to harass BT5?
There were a few acts that genuinely made it onto the world stage, but there is a LOT of astroturfed industry plants who either didn't make it, barely made it, or made it for awhile, but with diminishing returns.
I'll get into this more in the tinfoil hat time thread, but ear to the ground...shit is getting real. π

OMG, did I tell you all about the CREEPIEST thing that happened to me during my vacation?π
So my mom changed phone numbers, but she still uses her old phone for apps, including WhatsApp. So I would WhatsApp her periodically.
Well...Verizon gave her old number away and-
that person created a WhatsApp account. She got logged out and had to scramble to add a new account with her new number.
This all happened in a matter of HOURS. No notice of any kind. I went from chatting with my mom...to some strange man. π¬
He actually called me. He wouldn't let me see his face and it was a few seconds before I realized it wasn't my mom as I didn't recognize the location. Then he was like "Hello? What is your name?"
#Itsnotmybusinessbut just because HYBE owns a company doesn't mean they have anything to do with how that company manages their idols. Like, HYBE pays the bills, they do not micromanage.
That's like expecting them to run Justin and Ariana's careers...
Nothing changes. Y'all cry for five minutes before conveniently rolling over to a new Kpop group who you will not finance and whose careers will predictably crumble because you do not associate their success with yourselves, but rather payola and media play.
One of the main reasons I tuned out of K-pop was all that heart-breaking research into group after group that ultimately failed because they had no support. Because the people loudest about "loving ALL K-pop" do nothing but have all the mouth for blaming everyone else.
#TinfoilHatTime: BullyBoard's Anti-BT5 Antics Are Backed By An Industry Running ScaredβAnd I Think I Know (In Part) What's Driving The Fear
DISCLAIMER
It's called "Tinfoil Hat Time" for a reason. These are *my* crackpot theories. Take with a generous helping of salt.
I don't know if it's ignorance or arrogance, but ever since "Butter" dropped, the US music industry has used its various media mouthpieces to say the quiet parts out loud.
Ironically, while hoping their condensation and cruelty will discourage BTS and ARMY, driving us away.
The "secret" weapon to ARMY is something that may or may not seem obvious depending on how long you've been with the fandom and, most importantly, how much you actively paid attention to the NATURE of our fandom evolution over the years.
