SM payola or clout chasing westerner?

Quote from Tenderized Tomatoes & Pork (513)

Right, so it was all the Army comments, and BTS' music, performances and hard work had nothing to do with it. Right. Curious why you're not doing the same for your SM faves?

Because it is annoying and childish ?? I wouldn't do it for any of my faves including BTS.

Also where did i say their performances and music had nothing to do, i am just explaining how everything started

Maybe BTS wasn't pushed by BH, but if you think armys commenting 24/7 in every single NON BTS related video, tweet, post ... all social media possible, wasn't pushing them into everyone's throats then idk what to say, that was the best social media play in kpop history, look where they are now.

Now why are you comparing a billion dollar company spending millions to forcibly push a rookie girl group to west with an organized social media push by a loyal fanbase that BTS naturally gained after grinding for years? How is that even comparable lol

BP organic?

BP charted in 2017 and 2018 in the us, that is without any label push or promo. They signed to UMG in october 2018, and both DX4 and AIIYL charted there.
