there definitely are hybe stans who have beef with sm, but you have to see the bigger picture here. hybe is still a very very new brand and no matter how loud some hybe stans might seem, they simply cannot compare with the fervour and worship-like pride that sm stans have for the sm brand which has existed for literally decades and produced countless successful artists and amassed enormous fandoms for both those groups and the sm brand itself. hybe stans just do not possess the same strong feelings for hybe that sm stans have for sm, and for sm stans when they stan a company with such a rich and decorated history it hits their pride much harder to see their company which was undisputedly number 1 for a long time now struggle to compete on a one to one scale with other groups and to see people now flock to a different company and proclaim them as number 1 with better music and idols. that used to be sm’s schtick so it gotta sting for sm stans. some hybe stans might hype up hybe groups but they’re no where near as zealous about the hybe brand as sm stans about sm and cannot out-bitter sm stans over their competition, trust me on this lol
Sure sure i will trust you lol
