Typical Hybe, does anyone really believe that NJ is better with Hybe? And the funny thing is that someone criticizes MHJ for using the group.

Newpants has no chance against RM. Hybe payola won't be able to even help them this time cuz it's from hybe as well

doesn't zico ft jennie and New jeans bubble gum drop same time too

isn't this dude in military?

It will be an interesting week ahead.

Hold upl! RM's work has always been geared towards the Indie side.

I don't think there's competition between NJS and him.

They have different target markets.

But to have two of your biggest artists to drop album on same day.. im sure HYBE can do better

Even SM (one of the worst when come to scheduling) was spreading the releases by 1 week apart

he has been teasing it for a long time. has a whole separate Instagram account for this album and that account started posting again 3days before after being MIA for whole month. So we were expecting this announcement this week. and bighit almost always have almost a month for album preorders. So most likely this date was preplanned much much before, knowing bts probably 6 months or a year before.

I hear its not just the same day but the same time too, no one can tell me that this is not a consequence of the ego war ongoing since I doubt this has happened before at Hybe either.

RM consulted his shaman who selected this 'auspicious' date many moons ago.

No they don't. Jennie Collab is at 6pm kst while bubble gum is 27th April 12 am kst. Also it's only the mv for bubble gum iirc.

Zico who is in the same company is dropping his collab with Jennie on the same day as NewJeans but no one cares about that...

Seventeen releasing their album on Monday but no one has problem with that....

It's only a problem when BTS member is involved. I never take these "knetz" comments seriously because everyone knows who these "knetz" are but the fake concern by kpop fans is very interesting to watch...

what are the expectations for the newjeans mv? I will say anything less than or close to 5 million in 24 hours would be an underperformance from them.

Hybe is just proving the NJ hater allegations. They just gave more reason for the GP to support NJ.

The comebacks dates takes months to plan, and likely both labels were aware of it but went with it without either backing down. Can we not deny Bang PD and MHJ definitely beefing, it's in our face.

??? The GP supporting NJ means Hybe getting richer. Also, since when is RM NJ’s competition? Anyone actually use their brain on this forum?!

RM never did well in digitals while NJ's song will reach #1 in Melon because of all the brouhaha brought by MHJ
