Yes i know and i do understand their culture, the thing is international fans only make an issue when Korean beliefs, traditions, culture etc.. are broken when its convenient for them. When koreans make a deal about something they find offensive related to their culture but it is not of international fans interest they call them dramatic and other names, it is just plain hypocrisy.
That’s a fair point and it does happen in a way but in this case, they are rightfully criticized imo. To me personally it sounds very condescending in Korean so I find them really rude lol.
Also just saw their fans on twitter saying SM has this weird policy not to say other non-SM groups during live tho idk if it’s true or not and it does put more context too. Still rude.

It is funny how people get mad at nct instead of the racist people thinking all asians look the same and can't even tell apart the biggest group in the world from others
Also i am not Korean so im not gonna pretend im mad they said BTS with no "sunbaenim" or "that one group" after they mentioned the name just before, it is obvious is to avoid being attacked from fans for whatever reason.
Dont even need to be Korean. Even most Asians have the same culture when it comes to respecting seniors. Also, some of us do understand korean so it gets worse with context. I know that this doesnt apply to a lot of western culture though.

i think they already said they're having yet another theater tour in the US- or larger theaters for the Act: Sweet Mirage tour- which is this yr.
Eh edit: I think some people already noted that at least it’ll be Arena in some areas. Seoul is arena, Duluth is arena too.
-
I have this insane theory that BHM purposely gave them hall tour last year so they can put the exponential company growth when it comes to touring side by side bc BTS isnt around. Dont worry I think TXT will have massive arena tour this year.
Or.. is it TXT - the group that has NEVER had a bad CB! but for W/E REASON, BIGHIT ONLY GIVES THEM THEATRE VENUES IN THE WEST INSTEAD OF AREANAS WHEN THEY'RE HUGELY IN DEMAND

it's funny they benefited from using BTS's name but don't have the courage to even utter their names and just thanking as if they're forced to. Tells a lot about their characters.
like people cant put two and two together. People mistaking them as BTS are racist and wrong, yes. But NCT members not bothering to call them sunbaenims, proceeded with said racism, and referred to them as “that one group” has a negative connotation all over (esp if you understand korean) and people have every right to feel offended. Honorifics and respect are very important to Koreans.
-
Eh this happens in reverse too where BTS face racist shit and other fandoms find it funny or get mad about the wrong thing. That aside, what are Koreans saying about this (if anything)? I'm not gonna get mad about honorifics or whatever if it's not actually a big deal to Koreans.
They’re ripping him apart for not calling them sunbaenims. I think it’s on akp main site.
-
I ain't even mad at the conversation but I'm not gonna lie I'm a bit shocked no one said sunbaenim
Isn't that like engrained into these Kpop Idols from birth like
This is the main issue for me. NCT members’ pride may be hurt a bit for being mistakenly recognized so many times but them acting as if BTS is some kind of Voldemort and not putting sunbaenim after their name tells a lot about their morals. Also Taeyong saying “in any case we should thank that one group” is very, very disrespectful if you understand Korean. Korean netizens are understandably ripping them apart right now.
In a country that seniority culture is so ingrained and age is the second most important thing to ask after name, it tells a lot about how they respectful they are as individuals.

Now that makchang restaurant is out of the way, what do we think Yoongi meant as “I wanna try something big, closer to my dreams” during his new year message? 😁
-
What matters is they are on track to have a strong domestic core fandom. It’s important and will be such a huge milestone for them too. Who knows next year they can headline a domestic stadium concert too ala NCT Dream? They surely have the strongest domestic core amongst 4th gen tho, they only need to build audience.

The bsides are always amazing i hope the GP picks up on them
I hope they can have a DARARI moment with Tinnitus on TikTok.. it has potential😁
-

I like Sugar Rush Ride, Tinnitus, and Farewell, Neverland. Good job TXT!!
-
I like it, bop for me!! But esp the whole album OMG. Such a strong album.
-
friend I dont think he even is one 😔 I doubt that we’ll have his face resurfaced before March atp… that man is busy resting and playing games 😔
-
I agree with this. Like please stop with your experiment and give him the four album versions he deserves. I’m gonna need his solos to be loud if they give the JITB or INDIGO treatment idec. How are they conveniently only messing up the shipping period for BTS solos only!
How bighit music treats Jimin’s solo is going to be my benchmark for other maknae line’s solos too.

I cant believe this is the only level-headed reply I read here. Yes, this is true. Mostly these are financial reportings. Fans need to separate HYBE as business entity with how each company appreciates their acts bc as a business entity, it’s only reasonable investors are trying to make it look as “diversified” as it can.
It also doesnt help that k-ARMYs have weird hate boner against HYBE (i’d say for good reason) but people labelling this as mediaplay doesnt have basic financial literacy.
I do agree in general Bighit Music has had weird and questionable decisions since chapter two began but that is convo for another day.
-
this article is made bc of financial analysts’ half-baked reporting. Most of them are hyped NewJeans can enter hot100 with two songs. I doubt this is mediaplay, but this is more clickbait from kmedia bc investors are happy with how NewJeans is going.
Analysts as a whole are shit and dont understand a thing abt bighit music specifically, so.
