ARTIST CALLING OUT HYBE ON HIS INSTAGRAM ft. MORE POST
Text:
After looking at your works, we thought it would be a good idea to bring them into the virtual idol project we are currently working on and create interesting results together, so we would like to commission the project.
What we would like to inquire about
1. Finalize a version of our sketch of the character design
2.Visualizer for the title song.
The deadline for the schedule is mid-March,
Caption:
This year, I have been receiving inquiries regarding the design of a virtual girl group from a corporate subsidiary. When I asked about the cost and detailed inquiries, the designer cut off contact without replying, which made me uncomfortable.
Today, there was an announcement for HYBE announcing a virtual group, and I received an image from everyone around me saying they thought I did the work, but it felt strange.
If you look at the third slide, the feel of the original sketch they originally showed me is gone and the drawing style has completely changed.
Fans think I was outsourced right?
They inquired this to me, but did not entrust the request to me.
It must be a coincidence that the result is completely different from the previous sketch [they sent] and the result ended up resembling my style, right?
Did you work hard tracing on my work
It seems like you used it a lot for the reference

1. Low-Hybe
2. I'm shocked that there are still new things coming out
3. Wow crazy, it was f*cking the same but they didn't pay her?
4. This is the 3rd slide she's referring to. This sketch was sent from Hybe. The original vibe was totally gone, but they still ended up using her style without getting her approval
5. Wow
6. They're honestly an onion..
7. The company seems to have ran out of money ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ How can they be like that
8. HYBE had way too many controversies this year
9. This is honestly bad
10. ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Amazing HYBE! As expected from an entertainment company!
[theqoo] B.YO RELEASED ANOTHER INSTAGRAM POST RELATED TO HYBE
What an amazing coincidence.
I know that I cannot claim that my style is unique.
I know that my designs are similar to comics and city pop illustrations, and my illustrations are created using references these are references.
But the company that inquired about me didn't even reply to me when I inquired about the details of the work, right? It was a collaboration inquiry that was unilaterally rejected.
No matter how I try to look at it positively, I feel uncomfortable that their original drawing style has been completely changed and the result is like this.
Of course, they probably referenced a lot of other references from people other than me.
Fans asked if I worked on it, and I made it clear that I absolutely did not. I wrote [the post] just out of frustration.
I am not writing this to ask anyone to do something. What power does an individual like me have?

The final version of Supertone's drawing has no elements of their original sketch anymore

1. Low-HYBE at it again
2. Canary, Goyo, Nest, Raven
Karina, Kwangya, Next, Level
This shows HYBE's level of work ethic
3. As expected from HYBE
4. I support her
5. Wow it's true that the vibe is all gone
6. HYBE is the worst
7. This sucks so much ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
8. Seriously why are they like that?
10. This was HYBE's existing design
And this is the result
If you compare with HYBE's original design and with the style of that person, you can see that the drawing style and the color schem are f*cking copied
