Few people thought, but this is a chat and who is the second person with whom the dialogue is being conducted? Why were only some answers taken out of context and attributed to someone leaked online? MHJ showed not just messages, but entire chat threads. If you are for publication, then publish the name of the second person

I'm more annoyed by the attitude towards HYBE and BangPD, K-pop without HYBE and BangPD will flourish, and not be mediocrity copying others.

I am 100% sure that it will be successful because it is not the quality that decides, but the amount of money that Bang is willing to pay to get them to the top of the charts.

For directly naming the group into her mess and dragging them and their concept to filth, causing large stream of delulu fans of her and her group to hate on IllIt
It doesn't matter if it is because HYBE caused her brain to become delulu or she is already a crazy witch from the start
She is a grown ass adult dragging a bunch of kids and blasting them publicly to everyone, inviting hate towards them
Hate illit is HYBE's fault, not MHJ's. Who cares who intervened, this group was walking on thin ice even before MHJ's statements, and now the bomb has exploded, just like in the case of Le Sserafim - Coachella. And the company does not deal with such situations at all, but rather adds fuel to the fire. Stop being such fools and blindly attacking MHJ, it's Hybe fault and he's very nasty right now.

Nmixx - win, very simple, even in execution their skills are much better than Kiof's, this is very noticeable. Lily is the queen of high notes, but Haewon has a much wider range than Lily, she is even capable of low notes and transitions beautifully from them to high notes. Belle is such gold, excellent vocals, something between Lily and Haewon, and Natty sings beautifully. It’s hard to choose someone, these are the two most favorite groups in K-pop at the moment. Hope to see more interaction between nmixx and kiof.

I liked Supernova more, and overall it's SOTY, but mr.Vampire is underrated, this track is just very good.

Almost 600K. For rookie group with a small fandom it is good sales.
These results look like sajaegi, Babymonster having a huge fandom and popularity, sold the same amount against a group that is only played in shopping centers. So I would not believe in the reliability of these indicators.
In general, Illit's success is so inorganic that I don't believe at all that they have popularity comparable to their positions in the charts. Since their debut, this group has been involved in Spotify boosts, and now they are simply taking advantage of the results.

This group is now simply dependent on NewJeans, if they change the concept they will confirm the fact that they used NJ for noise given the low popularity of RUNext. If they continue to use the NewJeans concept, they will have to come up with something different from MHJ's ideas. The only positive way out of this situation is the dismissal of MHJ and the eternal hiatus of NewJeans, so that illit can continue to be with this concept.

2.Heya
6.Magnetic
7.Easy
I thought about putting Magnetic above Untouchable, but I couldn’t. Magnetic is an empty track that is only suitable for TikTok, nothing is memorable except the chorus. Midas Touch is the best track of 2024 so far, without an injection of money or big names, it flew to the top of the charts and shows excellent results. By the way, Heya from IVE is also a very cool track, there are not enough such tracks in K-pop. Easy is the worst track of this year, they should have made Smart the title track.

Fans are heated and irrational. But there are tons of articles on BTS contributions. They are not the be all end all but to make light of what they have accomplished shouldn’t be dismissed. This article is from an Indonesian newspaper
As the current biggest Korean boy band in the world, BTS has been proving its status by breaking barriers and records – in or outside music industry – around the world.
In the music industry, they grabbed number one spots in music charts and have won many awards. Outside the music industry, they have a global campaign called “Love Yourself” to fight against violence and give their speech in the United Nation as UNICEF’s global ambassadors.
BTS’ contribution to South Korea so far
“Bangtan economy” is a nickname for BTS as a credit for contributing to South Korea’s culture, economy, and industry due to their popularity.
The economic effect
According to the Hyundai Research Institute in 2019, the overall BTS effect in the economy was 5.56 trillion won per year in South Korea (US$ 4.9 billion). The institute predicted that BTS would create a total of 56 trillion won over 10 years from 2014 to 2023. A total of 7,928 more jobs were also estimated to be created by Dynamite’s entry at No. 1 in the Hot 100 chart in 2020 with 1.23 trillion won in production sector and 480 billion won were added to the value. According to the Bank of Korea Economic Statistics System, South Korea’s BOP (balance of payments) for music and entertainment in the first quarter of 2019 was US$ 114.7 million.
The tourism effect
A survey by the Korea Tourism Organization revealed the top five BTS-related locations. The Seoul Metropolitan Government also credited BTS with assisting in the recovery of Seoul’s tourism industry.
The consumer goods exports effect
BTS has an annual influence on consumer goods such as clothing (US$ 2.026 billion), cosmetics (US$ 2.8 billion), and food (US$ 3.966 billion) in 2019. They also bring 600 billion won (US$ 504 million) profit Hyundai carmaker as the company’s global ambassadors.
BTS enlistment worry stakeholders
The day BTS announced their enlistment plan, the stock price of BigHit Music’s parent company, HYBE, plunged several percent. The enlistment created a worry among stakeholders and became a major debate in South Korea between society and the lawmakers.
In an interview with Reuters, Shinhan Investment Corp. analyst Ji In-hae said that “Sales from BTS will not disappear. Members’ individual activities, the release of content and photobooks already filmed and older album sales will be highly profitable. However, with the biggest moneymaker absent, the key [for HYBE] will be how much sales are made from new businesses.”
How Indonesia should learn from South Korean soft ‘economy’ power
Probably the stupidest thing I have ever heard, the main contribution to the Korean economy comes from Hyundai, Samsung, LG, Kia and other companies whose products are all over the world, I can go to any village in Europe and I am 100% sure I will hear from any person knowledge of these brands than the group BTS. So the contribution of this group to the development of an entire country is so absurd, there is no country in the world whose economy rests on such an unstable thing as music.
P.s.The newspaper wrote that BTS made a significant contribution, then recently the newspapers wrote that Le Sserafim performed excellently at Coachella, and this was not some no-name newspaper, but the world media.

By the way, after this incident I seriously thought about Army’s mental abilities and their huge ego. Seriously, they say that BTS is so important to Korea and they owe them a lot.
