Le sserrafim's Yunjin embroiled in Starbucks controversy

The woke attack again.

imo its deliberate.

I suspect they also threw their 1st encore.

those people are mentally ill

Well cancel her.

Honestly she deserves to be dragged for it. So many idols were dragged already so she knew.

Also in SK, there are so many small business actually selling good coffee she could support yet she chose to go for that overpriced tasteless “coffee” brand… just because it’s trendy in SK. Her haters will have a field day and she had it coming.

Reminds me of how there was this half Palestinian woman from my country who was drinking my country's soda brand instead of Pepsi and Coca Cola, because she was boycotting both of these brands.

So....... those keyboard idiots were affected somehow and became butt hurt on behalf of someone else.

Correction: Title should be 'Peter Griffin's Deep Sigh' because it sounds better.

Quote from bartkun

not this bullshit again

the so called Starbucks in Korea

is owned by E-Mart and GIC

E-mart is part of Shinsegae group the chaebol conglomerate in Korea

E-mart is largest shareholder of Starbucks Korea they have 67,5% of all shares

GIC has remaining shares and it's Singaporean based company

Korea is also the only other country besides the US to have its own design team for Starbucks

overall it means this is basically totally different company

which just shares the logo and maybe some recipe with the Starbucks you know and have in your country

dude, barbarians don't use any logic. Like, they did a massacre of a trance party thinking they are doing something good. You overestimated their IQ abilities

i said this before when people were stupidly dragging somi but she's just drinking starbucks. she's not actually making a statement and a lot of people don't follow boycotts on twitter. I guarantee you, a bunch of these idiots are still watching disney, use amazon to order shit, wear puma shoes, order from dominos, etc.

You can't completely avoid it. Dragging someone over this is asinine and does nothing to support the issue aside from pretending you're morally superior

I honestly don't think it's that difficult to stop supporting this brands bc most of (if not all) the products thru sell are just nasty tasting anyways

lol... fandom cleansing time. Or maybe these people are not even fans! Maybe she should take pictures of her fridge contents to let the pro Hamas fans screen and approve??Plus her electronics? Clothes, shoes, contacts etc Did you give birth to her or own her?

Quote from icyruios

Shouldn't we boycott the entire USA instead because they seem to be 10000x more guilty than .... whatever people are hating Starbucks for

These 'fans' probably thought a Korean singer is a soft target to harass and bully into apologizing for drinking the coffee ... plus will give more publicity to their 'cause'. Especially so when other girl groups stans will pile in to hate.

It would require zero effort for her to follow this boycott. On every corner in Seoul, you can find small cafés selling very good coffee.

This is when you can really see how idols are not only fake but they are dumb too. Supporting a small business would have been good for image too but she’s just like all of them, following what’s trendy in SK.

Are you her coffee police? She has a right drink her coffee. Why do you feel entitled to control her coffee drinking?

Cancel all idols who drinks sb

If I were the CEO of Hybe, being the CEO of the company obsessed with global success, the first thing I'd do would be to educate my idols on the global issues.

Yes, I’m the coffee police.

The worst Starbucks crime is tasting really bad while costing more that it should

This is stupid. Canceling idols because of a drink

If they start losing money about things like that they will. But right now, they don’t care.

Idols who are in the military right now are not aware how lucky they are to be gone during the right time.

A lot of CEOs and investors of major American companies are Jewish, including those they work with. Why would HYBE or any rational business appease nobodies on Twitter over them?

Their pockets are filled by Asians not Americans, and most of them are pro Palestinians. Hybe is just hurting their sentiments by collaborating with pro zionists and not educating their new idols. Once they decide to unstan it's over for them. And I wasn't just referring to the current genocide.

Kpop Idols being out of touch isn’t new, some of these idols still keep and doing cultural appropriation and being ignorant and whenever they got called out they get shield by their fans because poor baby idols they don’t anything about the world, also the people saying the people who are saying here in the replies that the boycott does nothing or that Strabucks is owned mainly buy Korea you’re out of touch and ignorant just like these idols

It’s just a Twitter thing. The average person may feel sorry for Palestinians but they are still going to Starbucks. And most rich East Asian countries side more with Israel than Palestine except China.

Free Palestine

The Starbucks boycott is largely dumb because people are misinformed. Starbucks should be boycotted for A LOT of reasons but drinking that stuff doesn't fund, support or make you an enabling Zionist. It doesn't. And I've already explained why I have so many issues with the Starbucks boycott taking center when it's the definition of an empty gesture

And Yunjin is incredibly dumb for getting caught with it this late in. She's friends with Somi and performative kpop stans are still using that girl as a punching bag. Le Sserafim is a Western focused girl group and Jen is the only one actually from the west (and the most popular one over here). Being somewhat more aware of the biggest global issue going on right now is not a lot to ask

Do you think it's a problem that ppl want to boycott Starbucks? Why do u care about a corporation that sued their own workers that took a pro-palestine stance?

Also lol about calling kpop stans performative when yunjin is the only one that look performative all the time. That thing abt her reading and highlighting a feminist book on camera was screaming performative lmao.

No such thing as getting caught, like ppl said out of all coffee shops her picking starbucks says a lot. Although i do think starbucks is paying idols to drink their stuff bc of the boycott. Bc they know kpop fans will always defend them

Dude not even TIMOTHEE CHALAMET got unscathered for drinking starbucks, he lost almost all of his fandom and he is way bigger than yunjin.

If we thought about that no boycott would ever work, no corporation would be afraid of being nasty if there was no backlash. Justifying lack of boycott bc something else sucks just as bad is a very defeatist mindset. It's fine if you don't support or think it sucks, but that doesn't mean other ppl are wrong for boycotting based on their principles either.

Quote from DaisyTheGenuine

It has nothing to do with them being pro-palestine that got them sued.

It's trademark infringement, something Starbucks sues or threatens to do to dozens of companies every year for any conceivable reason.

The union was in the wrong. Even if their intentions were good, they broke their legal agreement plain and simple.

Wow, what a great response that ignores literally everything I said and means nothing to me.

They sued bc the workers saying "free palestine" was considered support of terrorism and violence. That says enough
