Several entertainment insiders predict an industry-wide boycott against HYBE artists - such as avoiding filming contents together, following internal reports exposé

Yeah tbh, I think it's more that western record labels aren't that stupid. Like yeah, the obligitory "everyone does it" is true, but to make it an official document that is circulated? That's some real amateur hour stuff, and the western music industry is many decades more experienced on how to be the worst without making it that blatantly obvious.

the horror

what will we do without 434457564 tikotk dance challenges

go back to 2016 I guess

A lot of Kpop songs are created for these tik tok challenges. This is especially true for Hybe's GGs.

But they would've been fine if they were talking trash about Drake

That also depends lol

Quote from Jeop

Imagine them bringing korean-isms to the west : "those girls are too dark skinned" "this one might be a feminist, we should start an incel hate train" instant death

This would have them dragged FOREVER! It is THAT bad, but certain kpop fandoms like to act like you can do whatever overthere lol

I love it! To think, people said they might blacklist New Jeans from appearing anywhere (similar to SM->JYJ) but they themselves will get blacklisted instead.

This is why my nugu faves have never had any interaction with BTS.

This is the only reason, no other reason at all.

Yeah umm no, I mean look at Diddy his streams are up about 46% even being charged with a horrific crime. No one cares. People make fun of Taylor Swift all the time do you see people being cancelled nope.

Girl bffr Diddy barely has any streams and his most streamed songs are not even his all collabs.

I don't think it will happen, at least not forever. Maybe short term.

Hybe has burnt so bridges thought that IMO they are going to have to have another few heads roll before this quietens down for them and (unfortunately) their artists.

Say a certain Chairman, CEO and/or COO stepping down, along with another more sincere apology. And of course a suitable resolution to the New Jeans issue.

take them down

interesting

Hi,

Just wanted to add, contrary to what other people may regurgitate out here, people in the industry are definitely bugged out by this and are walking on egg shells. At least in my world, this shit is a big g deal. I don't know about others, but ummm...Sex Trafficking is serious and people definitely GAF.

Also, the stream increases are actually 18% overall in all platforms. A huge portion of this can be attributed to folks listening in for lyrics that he has said that are sus as fuck.

Anyways, context matters.

Hybe will use BTS to get the power back, they'll give them their usual "buy BTS get one free" deal.

The younger group members are actually quite close. The children are now facing an uncomfortable situation because of the adults

Already happening because fans and some netizens are insanely clown 🤡 world stupid. Example they were bashing seventeen because the members posted a collaboration with another idol that was mentioned in the document.

Like c'mon you idiots the kids didn't make this fuckin document stop blaming the artists for shit their companies do and they themselves know nothing about and have NO power to make any decisions in the company.
