If I was to feel sorry for any of them, it would be JK and Tae. Absolutely they are the ones who have been abused (in all the ways) the most and that story of them not wanting to resign but the rest of the members basically forcing them into re-signing always makes me feel icky.

Tae will secure a bag and never show his face in public again, the way he went from this cute dorky full of life boy to someone who visibly looks like he wishes he was dead is frightening.

And JK has no idea who he is or what life is. I fully think they psychologically abuse the shit out of all them, but him especially cos he's so impressionable even now. I think he is a nice person deep down but massively fucked up and narcissistic with a multitude of issues that will never be addressed. The amount of times he's said he doesn't know how to work without the group or who he is..a walking disaster waiting to happen.

H0pe is the one who didn't come from a well off family I believe, he mentioned before in songs about how his mom had to work alot and away from home to pay for his dreams and his dad was a literature teacher

He had never been to Seoul until he went to audition for being an idol and he was in his late teens then


Not to derail but I just wanna mention a likable idol thus far:
TEN from SM is one of the most likable idols I've seen so far,he was the only one who dawned over a gorgeous little black girl when they did an interview in the states a few years ago while taemin fawned over the little white boy's blue eyes

Ten also questioned why 2 of his company members were talking in a blaccent(mark and Jonny of nct)both of whom are western from canada and Chicago
He asked them why are you talking like that?

Ten also recently said he loves normani and wants to work with her,most idols only ever mention wanting to work with justin,shawn mendes and ariana

I just threw this in cuz he really is a likable idol so far and being thai chinese I'm sure he gets racially bullied by the Korean fans alot

I think they will try to change his image now


this whole look and attitude of "you dont like me" reminds me of Gdragon
he used to be a Gdragon stan back then so now he is copying his persona

even with the tatts and piercings, his new hair and all those things

interesting, lets see what else they do with him8
Fandom will still baby him no matter the amount of tattoos, piercings, exposed outfits.

Agreed with all you said. The part about t*e made me sad because I remember when he was full of life and now he seems a shell of who he once was. And like you said jk doesn't seem like a bad person, but he's a mess and very lost.

I hate to think this but what if he is actually hurt but it's because they abused him. They as in the company. I thought this could have been the case with jk's leg injury a few yrs back. I never believed that story about how jk injured his foot..the story changed around too, which told me it was a lie. Anyway, both members blamed themselves for their injuries. T*e today said he made a mistake. It was an odd thing to say. Maybe this injury was bh's way of keeping him in line and like you said as a further punishment ostracize him on stage and embarrass him.

honestly I kind of feel bad for them it's like every time they do a concert or tour a member gets injured seems like hyb3 really does abuse them because I don't see other idols getting injured so frequently 5m makes their idols work to the bone but even mark l33 and ta3yeong (ok ta3yeong did get injured last year) don't get injured this frequently despite having multiple comebacks each year they aren't even doing solo work like most x-o and sh1nee members does any one think BH maybe drugs them to make them more easy to control?

He looks afraid, upset and sad. Something has happened to him recently and in the past. I hope he didn't get beat for his outburst.
Hope nothing "extreme" happened to him..

But by judging by his reaction, it looks like bigshit probably showed him some type of blackmail that might have scared the living shit out of him.. hope V is okay though!

Yup, and if you look at his ending speech it was like the others were guilt tripping him. Telling him to not be sick. To take care of himself more etc. All of this seems like a form of brainwash to me. It's not his fault he got injured but he's made to believe it is. I just don't think it's a coincidence that the two members that recently had scandals got an ugly haircut with reprogramming dye job and injured. It's the company I think. They have a lot at stake with the future U.S. concerts and they don't want these two to F it up.
sadly I have heard rumors this is the case with other companies as well doesn't help that korean work culture is toxic too which just adds more fuel to the fire

Im reading a fanfiction that comes closer to describing the duality between what fans see and what really happens behind closed doors. I think the writer is subconsciously noticing the abuse that a lot of fans stuff in the back of their minds. People would rather pretend the groups are happy, than notice the tears, sad faces and bruises.
