Quote from BlackpinkHouse

I just saw a tweet where it said EACH MEMBER EARNED FIVE BILLION WON, that's like 4 million USD for one year. Multiply that by 5 members and you get 20 MILLION USD going to the members instead of the company (most rookies dont see any money since all the revenue they produce goes to the company to pay back the trainee debt).

All of Ador's potential profits went to the girls if this tweet is true.

Of course this was only sustainable because MHJ could rely on Hybe to backstop any losses. If she had to self fund her own group and label, she would be the one in deep financial shit

When was that report, I doubt that was for 2022, probably in 2023 they were paid that much, they sold like 4M of albums, if they were paid 500k on 2022 they were lucky. So the 2022 losses is for something else.

"hybe expend almost 20 millions dollars in newjeans?"

correction I think it was 15 or 16.8B Won, not nearly 20 million dollars.

And you think HYBE gonna give those money for free ? They need to pay it back

Alright, I exaggerated the number a bit just because but is still too much money, I don't think even blackpink expend more than $20M in their full albums era

Dispatch is in HYBE's pocket, so don't expect impartial reporting from them.

Sadly yes, is crazy the control hybe has about info rn, even random twitter accounts are straight up hybe propaganda machines. We still have to use and decipher the info they gave us even if it is a bit manipulated i hybe favor

Wasn't even aware of her debut, she's a nobody my friend stop trying to derail the thread, lets focus on newjeans

Quote from hieuken

Initial capital.

You clearly don't know how much Kpop groups cost before actually earning money

The reports are saying newjeans members trainee debt was left to source music after ador was created... they also didn't had pre debut costs at all... in what could possibly hybe expend almost 20 millions dollars in newjeans? Jyp expend less than $1M in the entire twice debut, even loona company expended way less in 3 years with all the pre debut promotions

Twice soloists getting outsold by yuqi

Getting fraudulent mass buying from certain east asian country even as a solo is crazy, also only 3 millions of views even with ads lol, nobody is streaming her

• When Min Hee Jin received her stocks, ADOR was in the red. In 2022, sales amounted to 18.6 billion won with operating losses of 4 billion won. • If she…

Newjeans debut supposedly was a massive earthquake that changed the kpop music industry to its core, they sold almost 1 million of albums, and got a big amount of streams that no other rookie could dream of... so it what could hybe and ador possibly expend so much money to have all those losses? Was the payola too expensive? Too much promo with so many music videos and other content? Maybe all those albums sold were not that profitable? I doubt debuts like twice or ive could end in losses like this, not even blackpink with a more expensive debut than twice and no album sales could have so many losses in my opinion.

Newjeans is so over , I can't believe this is real guys

As an honest army I believe newjeans should be banned from the industry

Is probably more about greed and money

Quote from junk00kie

Regardless of how she spins it, she’s out. NJ will likely stay with HYPE if they just keep quiet. Any peep from the members in support of MHJ will be bad, HYPE will probably disband or put them on an infinite hiatus. HYPE will make everyone stays in line after this fiasco.

good analysis but is HYBE not HYPE

I'm starting to side with mhj because this is starting to sound too silly to be true... hybe really set her up and are trying to kick her out with a smear campaign

Hybe ruined the long awaited newjeans comeback season by publically doing this shitshow

Quote from Dreamer95

Fourth gen groups are competing for the title of shortest period on top. Aespa for a year, then Ive for couple of months and NJ for a little more than a year

Right but at least ive and aespa still have chances of getting their crowns back or keeping close to the top, this is pretty much the end of newjeans, this is so insane and funny

Right but you are also appropriating WhyKnock credit, dude has been talking about this way longer and more directly than you, aside of his usual IU trolling he's a top kpop analyst

Witnessing newjeans downfall not even 2 years into their career, I can't believe my eyes

Looks wise she is one of the few idols who caught my attention, she is basically jihyo visuals in a different font, super beautiful and hot. I think she is talented but hybe set her up for not including another member with vocals at her level or stronger, just like itzy, lesserafim is a group focused on performance and dancing and is difficult to find idols with strong vocals fit for groups like them, so now she has to hard carry the group while still maintaining the level of performance of lesserafim, very hard. She also put a target on her back for being too vocal... that crap of changing the idol industry was a mistake, like now she will be held to higher standards just for that.

Quote from Popper-of-Ks

They lack the military might to do so. And that's putting it lightly. Much like the Palestinians, they are picking a fight they cannot hope to win.

This would be the perfect time to remind everyone of that incident last year, or maybe the year before, where Israel attacked Iran's drone factories that were being used to supply Russia's war effort with their fighter jets and Iran did absolutely nothing to retaliate, because they could do nothing. They just sat there and took it.

Dumbest logic in the world, please never quote me again if this is the kind of crap you will use

Quote from Popper-of-Ks

Iran is not defending itself by any means, this is plainly an extremely bold act of aggression. And truth be told, Iran cannot defend itself. None of these hypocritical Arab nations can. I fear they're about to find out what actually happens when you attack a nuclear power.

Iran can't defend itself for what reasons? Why the arab nations can't defend itself?

Watching the lunatics who spent months telling us that israel has the right to defend itself and commit genocide now tell us Iran has not the right to defend itself despite Israel bombing an Iran embassy and killing Iran personal has been insane, the cognitive dissonance those monsters have is crazy

Everyone who claimed newjeans was getting paid playlisting by hybe with attention was 115% spot on, 15 days before getting on today's top hits newjeans wasn't even charting on spotify global. Attention was added to TTH on friday august 26th, the day before attention was doing 1.123M streams on #105 of spotify charts, nothing special or worthy of a today's top hits that supposedly is for the biggest hit songs on spotify charts, in fact hype boy had a few thousands more streams than attention too. The day hybe got attention on today's top hits Ive's after like did 1.9M of streams... what a shameless company and delusional stans are newjeans fans
