Kakao is about to acquire a stake in SM Ent
-
-
I think it's not music-related except the Aespa metaverse which is insane! They are really going all the way with the concept as I hoped. Aespa is a start of a new phenomenon. They were like we started K-pop and now we start CAWMAN (lol whatever it is but I will keep calling it that)

EDAM and SM about to become siblings
Finally, IU can be part of SM family.

All SM acts should go to IU's Palette

Remember, a "stake" in a company means that the have purchased enough shares to be publicly known, so at the least it would probably be 2% of the Shares..
SME is an attractive company because their Revenue is not driven by thier Idols like JYPE is which means SME is overall a company that is more stable.
Thier Online Concerts and their Karaoke Company is attractive under COVID

its lsm shares which is 18 percent

Since Kakao reportedly acquire LSM stakes:
the benefits:
-no more shitty video calls using line
- sm artist x iu (manifesting aespa to iu pallette)
- no zepetto
- join collab with ncsoft
- more contents in 1theK
- melon is my new best friend (/jk)
The drawbacks:
- might use the universe app
- no more mediaplay in naver news section
- no weverse
- Vibe + Flo not my best friends
That i can think of

A Stake refers to who is listed as a "Listed Shareholder" as there is a minimum requirement for each company, it doesn't matter who owns the shares

hmmmm interesting

Yes, but it was reported that LSM is selling his shares, not the company, so they can't go for more than 18%.
I repeat, a Stake in a company means that a person needs to buy enough shares to be listed...
Lee Soo Man can sell 1 share if it means the person buying it crosses the minimum target to be listed or have a Stake

So does this mean that Kpop will be split into two huge factions?
vs
SME-Kakao
I wonder if CJENM will unite with JYPE to form a third faction, they're already basically cousins at this point with how much favorable treatment JYP groups get under Msnake. JYP might be a vulnerable company with its limited focus only on idol music, but CJENM is a giant conglomerate, top 15 in terms of total revenue in the country.

What a shitty take. Aespa have already secured mma roty on their own merit, with or without kakao.

So the inflated Aespa MelOn #s might have been preemptive quid pro quo

No but really I'm waiting to see what it means exactly
My previous post is a quip about the hundreds of tweets about the Hybe rumor with degrees in economy explaining how they are bad
I'm not a fan of either "sides" going together but (and it works for both sides), people really have double standards when it comes to jumping to conclusions or supporting

I don't understand these butthurt posts. This is not about SM buying other agencies, nor is Kakao buying SM, they only acquired stake in the company and we don't even know the size yet. What's the difference between this and Naver acquiring shares in SM and YGE and HYBE subsidiaries before? So what you're doing here is a fake equivalency.

True, but it matters in the sense that "acts" under aligned interests can better coordinate their schedule timings, to maximize impact-profit, collaborate better etc.
Keeping fan-wars going with grander coalitions/consolidations, with an occasional rebellion works well for profits.
I am sure enough Jungkook IU shippers would already be writing that the star-crossed lovers are going to be in opposing camps of the galactic war..
will be amusing... but good for profits of both camps.

I don't see SM giving up LYSN/Bubble. It's too profitable and available to way more devices than Universe which gives them more revenue opportunity.

Oh wow

coordinate their schedule timing? lol SM don't care about their own artists timing, let alone other 100 kakao m artists, collaborations won't change, Kakao M will have a small part of their shares, SM isn't becoming a Kakao M subsidiary

I don't see more than 5%, i don't see LSM giving the majority of the shares, even so 8% of the shares is a small amount, even if Kakao M gets 8% they don't get to decide anything, the majority votes decide.
The only person which gets to truly decide if they hold more than 50% of shares of a company. If the majority shareholder holds voting shares, they dictate the direction of the company through their voting power which is far from whats happening here.
