It seems most of it is just a rehash of what was released before.

New dispatch story dropped.

[단독] "인생은 실전이다, O만아"…민희진, 대퓨님의 말씀들

KPOP fans: We should empower idols! Give them more autonomy! They should speak up if something is wrong!

NJs sides with MHJ, and their parents speak up as proxies.

KPOP fans: No, not like that! You ungrateful fools! Get back in line and be grateful towards Source Music and Hybe!

Bop. Well deserved

Quote from WheelyFab

No board has a fiduciary duty to commit illegal acts. They have to look after the interests of the shareholders within the confines of the law.

Any board will get a third party opinion on the matter at hand, e.g. music experts of their own choosing, and then act accordingly. If they wanted to get rid of MHJ, they can quickly do it. It is the responsibility of the board to let go of the CEO when the latter has acted badly.

What is the illegal act you are talking about? Did you see the quote I was responding to? The person was talking about breaking the spirit of the contract by settling with Shakatak in order to trigger one of clauses in MHJ's contract.

Do you think the courts will look favorably on that?

Yes, the interest of the shareholders is to beat the charge of plagarism. You don't want your creative team to get trashed in the media. Whether it is 250 or the other writers, these are veterans of this industry.

There are specific clauses that has to be triggered in her contract to dismiss her without paying her put options.

Hybe's first attempt was to accuse MHJ of Breach of Trust, but the court said there was no breach of trust towards ador, only Hybe. They struck out.

The second attempt was Belift lab and Source music suing MHJ for defamation. There is a clause in her contract that says she can't cause harm to other sublabels, and winning those lawsuits are seen as a just cause for dismissing MHJ. That is why Hybe is letting both sublabels go after her despite the terrible optics.

One of the other clauses says she has to cause a certain amount of monetary damage to Ador in order for her to be dismissed. Newjeans have been doing well, and Ador has been one of the top performers in Hybe.

What would the court think if Hybe directed Ador's board to intentionally sabotage MHJ by agreeing to the settlement? Do you think the court will look kindly to that? Do you think these accomplished producers and song writers will want to work with Hybe and Ador's new board?

Her contract is pretty iron clad. That is why they haven't dismissed her. For now, they have to wait out for her contract to run out, and most likely, they'll have to pay the put options.

LSFM is well loved. Online hate gets amplified so much, but most IRL people don't care about the controversies.

Quote from Taemin-Identity

I am using half of the listed products you mentioned. Guess what I’m admitting using those brands even if half of them were bought before boycott began. And guess what I’m boycotting as much as I can, and I’m not publicly posting it on my instagram, Facebook or any other Social Media for 65m audience. Guess what I’m not defending my fave for publicly supporting McDonalds. Guess what, I’m at least spreading awareness about boycott and about conflict. If your so called brain have at least processed how boycott will affect Israel or Governments even if it is selective, then you wouldn’t have been yapping all about that. If you think selective boycotting is hypocrisy, then let’s just stop all alone boycotting and start buying and eating all those products. And of course sharing with our 65 m audience. Armies are the most hypocrite fandom in the world. At least blinks admit that they did something wrong

Hmm. What are all these excuses? It is ok for me b/c x,y and z. That's all I'm reading right here.

Also, I'm not a BTS fan. I see you trying to redirect the conversation as if this is a BTS fandom thing.

Quote from Taemin-Identity

So what? This conflict is about land not about religion. Israel needs that land end of story.

I also said it is his choice, and he will either get criticised or praised. It is his choice to ruin his image or to not. But armys should not defend their faves like a cult if he did smth wrong.

Yes they are. But when Americans will be given alternatives they can start to use other platforms sites and brands. For now we don’t have that alternative so it can be available for everyone. But speaking for myself, my Samsung(Android) was produced in 2019, I didn’t buy new one. Also, I don’t eat any fast food, I don’t use Amazon, I don’t buy any coke or Pepsi. I admit that I bought my IPhone, because I needed it for my education, since my Samsung is pretty old. And I’m trying my best to boycott all those brands.

Also the difference is V is not only buying McDonalds but also sharing it with his 65m audience, basically supporting.

And about the boycott. The meaning of this boycott is to minimise the damage, and not about choosing the brand. And people are trying their best and are not publicly sharing to their 65m audience

You don't use Amazon? You better check that. Amazon's AWS is the biggest cloud provider. Do you use netflix, twitch, linkedin, facebook, bbc, espn, adobe, twitter, etc?

Oh, right. Do you have Intel Pentium and Celeron computer processor chips in your computers? You better throw those out since they are produced in Israel.

Did you know spotify is pro-israel since some people claim they removed a pro-palestinian song? You better not listen to that.

Youtube? Owned by google. Better not use that either.

What about most of the generic drugs manufactured by Teva? Better not use that either.

People are being selective in what they boycott to minimize the discomfort that'll cause in their daily lives. If you get to be selective, why can't some South Korean do the same with McDonald or something else?

It is hypocrisy at the finest.

Quote from superyeah

It's not any different from trying to teach anyone overseas about these things. Their media is different from ours. You're not going to see their media talking about boycotts. They won't care as much as we do.

Their media isn't talking about the rest of the world 24/7 the way ours does. They're much more focused on what's happening in their own country as opposed to global affairs.

American media is different because the United States is expected to have a stance when it comes to just about any global conflict. We're expected to offer aid, military assistance, and all. Sometimes we're obligated to be involved even if we don't want to.

Other countries are just focusing on themselves, so it makes sense for their people to be oblivious.

People forget how insulated East Asian countries are. If you are on the Korean side/feed of Insta/twitter/any social media that has algos recommending content, it is possible to not know much about what goes outside of the country.

I was watching a vid where little korean Kids didn't know who Billy Eilish was. I saw a vid where Japanese people didn't know who Kim K, Tom Cruise, Will Smith, etc are.

Quote from Taemin-Identity

Yes he isn’t obligated to pick a side or care, but it is called a sense of humanity. This war is not about religion. Also there are plenty of Christians and non- Muslim communities in Palestine. You think Muslims care about Taehyung except his Muslim fans? No never ever. But what he did is just act of ignorance, and promotion of genocide supporter McDonalds. He is not a random guy from the countryside. He has 65 million audience. If he didn’t care he shouldn’t have posted that photo of him eating McDonalds. He should’ve kept himself silent about that situation. If he picked a side then it is his choice and people and fans have the right to criticise him, or boycot him too.

This is disingenuous as hell. How big was the Christian population in Gaza before the war? Approximately 1k. 99 percent of Palestine is Muslim. I don't know why you would frame it like that.

He can do whatever he wants.

Isn't Amazon and google on the BDS list? Why the hell are you using sites hosted by AWS or google cloud?

YG bring out the big guns after a lackluster earnings in 24.

This guy goes over the claims by Shakatak and debunks it all.

Quote from BlackpinkHouse

Problem is the hypocrisy. MHJ is a massive hypocrite. She literally stole a Mexican GG and Japanese GG visual concepts and now this. Atthe same time complaining about IIIIT.

It's too much

People who keep saying this are disingenuous. NJS and their parents brought up the issue of the similarity of NJs and ILLIT being mentioned in the public sphere. They were worried Hybe was pushing out a group that might cannabilize their fan base.

MHJ went through an internal process to make their dissatisfaction known.

It wasn't until HYBE took the battle public that MHJ had to address the issues publicly.

Stop being disingenuous saying the problem is MHJ's hypocrisy because it is a distortion of what happened.

KIOF have a track record of great live performances. When put against their body of work, this is just a blip.

Quote from K-PL

You don't get it.

Hybe control the Ador board. They can decide to settle out of court for whatever amount they want with Shakatak.

Then they'll get sued. They are now board members of Ador, and they have a fiduciary duty towards Ador.

You are suggesting Ador board members settle over a specific amount that was put in MHJ's contract.

That is a PR nightmare, and it is legally untenable. That would actually play into MHJ's advantage.

The board has a duty to fight against this accusation vigorously and pay the least amount.

I saw the title, and saw a new thread had a couple replies already. My hunch was right. lol The title was like a siren call.

I guess BTS fans making rounds on social media sites with this topic.

I don't get how couple trolls on twitter is supposed to represent BP or NJs' fandom. There is no need to drag BP/NJs or defend BTS. Every sane person can see that those twitter opinions and the right wing Japanese article to be garbage.

Just enjoy the good music each group has put out. I don't get why this stuff is necessary. OP represents it as if a good portion of the BP and NJs fanbases hold these opinions and it needs to be disavowed. That's crazy talk. People like OP are doing more harm by amplifying these assholes/trolls instead of ignoring them.

Three out of their four new songs puts them squarely around the late 80s to 90s. Miami bass(How Sweet), UK garage(Right Now) and New jack swing(Supernatural). The odd one out is inspired by Jpop/city pop(Bubble Gum).

It fits with the overall theme. It is either hip hop inspired outfits or Japanese/Korean school girl outfits for Bubble Gum.

If every number is fraudulent and manipulated, I guess you just have to watch how Japanese students react to them to get a feel for their popularity.

They seem pretty popular.
