It is certain that no BTS members were consulted about this merger, which can only mean less number of comeback for everyone.
Hybe has not done anything to promote the solo events of the BTS members, although it could be interpreted with both ways.
They say Hybe has now an ambition to be listed in a US stock exchange, which is why it is buying all these US outfits. With SM under its belt it will advance, without BTS being able to claim any credit for it.
Again, not evading military services, not abandoning K-O-R-E-A and trusting the Armys , whose numbers probably declined somewhat now proved be a very unwise move.
Hybe will own the rights for all of its hits, its name, its everything. With their peak waste to placate some K-O-R-E-A-N incels who stopped caring after they saw Seokjin dragged into the camp, their company now effectively run by someone who would rather run them according to her wishes and now a bunch of acts who don't really have any time to respect BTS, Hybe will give a take-it-or-leave-it deal with giving preferential treatments to Taehyung and Jungkook, who will be given greater autonomy with a personal promise from MHJ herself to not interfere with their activities, which might change the fate of BTS substantially.
Peopled laughed at me when I pointed these out. But it is now progressing in a way which makes my predictions more relevant. I had predicted the disbandment of GFriend long before anyone discussed it.
