You know I'm subscribed to this thread, right? 
Is there any way to make this a display picture with animated sparkles? That would be amazing!!!
Ps. I have no idea how to send akorns but i can follow instructions? xD
Sure thing! But I'm down with the stomach flu right now, so I'll have to get back to you when I'm a functioning human being again

See now these actually have some similarities, unlike the photos in the post I was responding to.
That being said, they're both just generic "trendy young friend group out on the town" concepts.
buddy what are u on, mulitple kpop idols have black long hair
So much plagiarism, when will it end? 
other kpop girl groups have members with long hair, min hee jin is overreacting
Queen MHJ invented long black hair
Deja Vu rose to #77 on the MelOn Weekly, and ISYTT has debuted now at #94 
ISYTT has just surpassed Deja Vu's debut 24h ULs, just over 60k, while Deja Vu is sitting around 70k now
ISYTT has reached a new daily peak of #88, and Deja Vu is at #72

The four photos above are NewJeans
The four photos below are ILLIT
I don’t know these two groups very well and I searched for concept photos on Google and only found group photos
1. Honestly, they’re really similar. When I first saw these concept photos, I thought they were NewJeans and everyone around me said the same
2. I think this is a concept that wouldn’t have happened without NewJeans
3. They are the same.. I thought it was NewJeans when I saw the photos below
4. I’m not sure. ILLIT reminds me of TripleS
5. Honestly, it seems like they copied NewJeans
6. It seems like a concept that wouldn’t be possible without NewJeans
7. When I first saw them, I thought they looked like a copy of NewJeans, but then I heard it was HYBE and thought, “Oh, that’s HYBE’s style.”
8. To be honest, when ILLIT’s concept photos appeared, I immediately thought of NewJeans
9. They are so similar that even foreign kids think they are NewJeans
10. Honestly, they are so similar… Just looking at these photos, I understand why Min Heejin is angry
11. I thought it was the same group
Judging by those comments I expected the photos to actually be similar in some identifiable way... I guess both sets do feature 5 girls with black hair. This must be what MHJ meant when she said they plagiarized NJ's hair
To be fair, didn't the bighit group which disbanded pre debut also have a yeonjun look-alike
It's pretty common in this industry to have companies debuting similar looking idols which is why mhj's argument over hair, makeup and event appearances seems pointless
Very true, a lot of companies want to try to debut their own Yeonjun these days since he's considered as the representative male visual of 4th gen. It's just funny because she's complaining about other people doing the exact same thing she's doing, and it's suspicious because ADOR has been caught sabotaging TXT at least once in the past.
Come to think of it, MOAs started suspecting possible beef between MHJ and Bang last year after ADOR sabotaged Do It Like That's MV premiere, but nothing concrete happened after that, so everyone just sort of forgot about it 
Then this year some rumors came out that made people think that ADOR is planning to make their own TXT, complete with their own Yeonjun
And now MOAs are reminiscing about how since last year personal info about TXT kept getting leaked, and the amount of hate posting online about them increased dramatically out of nowhere. The dots are connecting 
I'm too sick for popcorn right now, but I'm seated 
Deja Vu has re-peaked at #70 and ISYTT has hit a new peak of #88 on MelOn 24hits 
With 2 more tracking hours left for the day, ISYTT is getting dangerously close to Deja Vu in the MelOn Top 100. They're at #40 and #43 right now... a pass may happen sooner than expected
Elsewhere, ISYTT passed Deja Vu in real time on Genie again last night, and right now on Apple Music South Korea Top Songs, Deja Vu has fallen to #27 and ISYTT has risen to #28. A pass may be imminent
The prophecy has been fulfilled 
Hmm now it makes more sense. Has big hit done it for others before?
Sadly no, not really. It's always been one of ARMY's main complaints, and now it's a major complaint for MOAs too 
You know that it's up to KOZ to decide how they spend money on BND so your take doesn't make sense
That's exactly what I'm saying!
HYBE has plenty of money for these things, and other labels under HYBE (such as KOZ) use that money for proper artist promotions, without waiting for a track to top the charts before they start doing their damn job as a company. So if KOZ can do it for BND, and ADOR can do it for NJ, and Belift can do it for ILLIT, and Source can do it for LSFM, etc.... why can't Big Hit do it for TXT?
My "take" is that they can, they just choose not to. Which is why MOAs are upset.
Anyway ISYTT has now reached a new peak of #91 on the MelOn Daily, while Deja Vu is sitting pretty at #74 after a cumulative 20 days in the Daily Top 100
Elsewhere, ISYTT passed Deja Vu in real time on Genie again last night, and right now on Apple Music South Korea Top Songs, Deja Vu has fallen to #27 and ISYTT has risen to #28. A pass may be imminent
Here's the thing: it's not viral enough for Bighit to do anything that would involve a lot of money. When you look at other b-sides that have gone viral in the last few years (Dolphin, Fate, Eve Psyche, etc.), they were already cracking millions of streams and views on social media, then they shot up the charts in Korea. This was before their respective companies decided to release special performance or music videos.
ISYTT has just barely cracked the top 100 of Melon and hasn't trended very high on Youtube's daily chart; with the opening tour date on the horizon, I doubt Bighit will spend any significant money to further promote the song. Playlisting, TV broadcasts, and radio spins require money to be spent.
Before money can be spent, board meetings have to happen to see if they have a budget and if they do, how long can they afford to push the song? They've probably invested hundreds of thousands into all aspects of the tour so ISYTT's small trending status right now isn't a priority.
If companies have the money, they usually invest when a track shows viral potential instead of waiting for it to already be viral. They'll also invest before a track shows any potential, to try to force virality. These are both things that other HYBE labels routinely do.
Hell, BND is even serving their youtube shorts dance challenges as ads just to get their recent song out there. Why is there money to do that for a track that isn't even in the MelOn Daily Top 100 right now, but there isn't money to do that sort of stuff for TXT's two tracks that are in the MelOn Daily Top 100 (one of which is in the Weekly Top 100 and is on course to possibly enter the Monthly Top 100)?
ISYTT has reached a new peak of 92 on MelOn 24hits
Deja Vu is holding somewhat steady at 76 (cmiiw its peak was 70 nearly a week ago)
Make that 91 and 75

Oh noooo... anyway 
They've already been blocked by most of MOAville on twitter because every now and then they'll randomly decide to cherry pick negative posts/comments or straight up false information about TXT for no reason and pretend that it's an accurate representation of what people are saying or that the info is correct.
I'm on Idol Champ and TXT won voting for two weeks in a row, so whoever said MOAs are indifferent to voting is wrong.
Most MOAs don't vote. The fandom has just grown large enough that the small minority who do are able to make noise.
