Koreans need not really mind these "western critics" because they also have excellent singers like...
yes many SM artists are really good singer.. i notice that
Yep...like the EXO men are really great singers...
But SM has a bigger problem than Hybe because their idols don't make their own songs. The company buys songs from western artists and adds Korean lyrics on top which makes their idols not more than glorified cover artists because a lot of times SM doesn't change one thing in the demo.
Rather than suing, it seems taking inspiration from here has been far more profitable for them.
Since @lal golapi replied to this now I want to say I don't agree with VC's idea of satanism in Kpop. I don't think these idols literally sign contracts with the devil and do demonic rituals behind the scenes. I don't believe Satan is so dumb he will do all the things people on these forums talk about. I believe Satan is a trickster and what he does is trick these idols who have large fan followings to manipulate their fans so they waste their lives on Kpop and forget God. They don't have to do rituals or call upon the spirits of fire, water or use gematria, astrology tarot to put spells on people even though some probably do use those things. Scientifically it has become possible to emotionally manipulate people into becoming literal slaves or worshippers of popular celebrities and we see that not just in Kpop but in every fandom whether it is sports fandom, Kpop fandom or political fandoms. So, really idols don't have to be part of some "elite" system trying to ruin the world. The "elites" are just a fancy term for capitalists who own most of the wealth and power in this world and want to control the rest 99% like you and me by keeping us divided and creating a system that makes us 99% poorer while making them wealthier. So, I don't think idols are demonic. I think they are regular people like you and me who are highly calculated and manipulative. They do show blasphemy and satanic symbolism in their MVs but imo that's only because these things create popularity for them. I am Muslim and I have seen fake converts in my community i.e influencers who pretended to be pious Muslim just to gain followers and earn money from YouTube. If regular people can do this why can't celebrities whose careers depend on popularity do this? They might just be adding controversial symbolisms and demonic concepts because it sells rn and if people started to become interested in religion again I am sure a lot of celebrities will join the bandwagon and pretend to become pious people who love God. Didn't Britney Spears pretend to be a religious virgin back in the day because being a virgin and devout Christian was what was popular and "cool" at that time.His album was removed from banner. Either they are doing wantedly or it should be new way of marketing.x.com

Don't you remember law when u called them these. Don't preach good words now when u said these in past.
How "I" motivated you to say something?
The inspiration can be derived from in any form, even from the posters' mental state, not just the theories.
It was an older post from weeks ago I didn't reply to back then because I was busy at that time why are you acting like I attacked you or something??
Hmmm chill. I didn't think you attacked me. I was wondering what made you to write a long explaining post after seeing my post but I got it now from your answer.
Im not a muslim anymore. But I understood what you meant.
For sometime now...and for something...verrry "intriguing..." Hybe has been treating V in a manner that appears "distant...uncaring...cold...and rather sinister..." Somewhat similar to how they've been treating Jin overall...Hive is deleting Tae's fancams on YouTube via copyright claim. But only him. Fans are pretty mad.

I wanna know what Hive's end game is in doing this.
Based on that answer by V (assuming the translation was accurate) it seems that he only signed a renewal of their contract in order to "please" the other members...Hive is deleting Tae's fancams on YouTube via copyright claim. But only him. Fans are pretty mad.

Yes they are removing his one of famous fancams under copyright claim. And now his exhibition is held on different venue not with members. So fans are thinking he left the group. This should become true want to see everyone's reaction. Didn't hype treated him differently from last year songs were not promoted, ads were also not promoted let's see what happensHive is deleting Tae's fancams on YouTube via copyright claim.
