Display MoreIf anything goes wrong or people dare to criticise the company and/or JYP, you have these people come out the woodwork on here and on twitter, reddit etc spouting the same things like clockwork.
1. Any time there's a disparity in terms of quality, budget, promotions, it's always because of the divisions. "Blame the divisions" they say.
Do people even know how the division system works? Do they think the divisions keep all the money groups in said division make and then have free reign to reinvest as they see fit (lol)? Or do they logically think for a minute and realize there are head honchos that will decide where they want the money to go and which direction they want the company to move in? They know which groups they want at the forefront, they know who they want to push. This will be decided above the head of the divisions. If they for example want Stray Kids front and center now and see their division flagging in some aspect, they will do something about it. Fans are liking their b-sides? Give them more money and resources to make better MV's for them.
Where the money goes. Where the resources go. Where the best staff go. Some people really think the big dogs at JYPE give the divisions free reign over this and therefore the entire direction the company moves in. What company would ever run like that.
2. "JYP isn't even in the company anymore/is not involved"
Okay, other than the fact that he is still the largest shareholder, the creative director and pretty much involved in all the groups one way or another? Braindead statement people like to throw around for someone that is still the most important person at the company. How he thinks will be more representative of how the company is thinking overall more than anyone else around.
3. JYPE are the best in treating idols right, emphasis on character and how JYP cares about this.
History dictates that even though idols like JYP, so many leave as they believe JYPE is stifling their careers. it's the best example of how they don't treat their artists the best, not even in comparison to the others. No company uses and throws away idols as quickly.
4. JYPE treat their GG's better.
The lie that is based on one example and it's Twice and Got7. An incredibly unique example as they both came out at a time JYPE was struggling for money, could only really push one to a large extent and the very unsurprising conclusion was that they pushed the group that unexpectedly became the most popular group in Korea and Japan within a year of debut. Shocking right? Twice being pushed also meant Twice being massively overworked as JYPE needed money, compare that to how cushy the 4th gen have it. 2PM have been one of the most privileged groups within the company whilst Wonder Girls are nowhere. Stray Kids and Itzy have been level footing for years, with Itzy starting stronger so got more attention at the start just as any company would do.
Speak your truth!
What I find the most amusing is the hypocrisy of JYP group stans bagging out "company" stans of SM/Hybe/YG, yet they are the first to run and come defend their cult leader oppar JYP and his goons.
