Love this:

Hybe has 80% so it wouldn't take much to get her fired. I'm sure they'd prefer she quit and she's already done so much damage to the "brand". I think she needs to check herself into a mental hospital.

Why can't they flat out fire her, based on her documented treachery? Surely there are some Hybe people who she had tapped to go with her who can now, in order to save any possibility of working in the industry again, give evidence of her plans. This is going to cause more than just her to lose their jobs - and I have to believe that none of those who were critical in the early years of BTS, like PDogg or SloRabbit or Son Sung Deuk, who were involved in any of this. There were only so many employees in 2012, 2013, and I am sure they are as loyal as loyal can be. Also, none of the members will refer to this horror. Staying above the fray seems to be what most of the hierarchy will continue to do. I do feel sorry for the girls, though, and am glad that Hybe will do what they can to protect them. I really haven't a clue what any of the employee and subsidiary contracts look like, but feel reasonably certain that her treachery is illegal.

Looks like it - I wonder how he can promote this while unable to promote it, other than with Instagram posts -- And I read that press conference transcript. Wow. She is seriously delusional.

Wow. The sun is barely up here and this is what’s been going on since I went to sleep last night? I need coffee to digest all of it. IF Hybe has been on to her for at least half a year, they may have heard rumblings before that. Bang is too smart to not have had a clue, though the company has grown so fast, he can’t be on top of everything all the time. i suspect there will be a shake- up and many departures of the “mutiny” people. The Tae theory has merit- Coffee and then checking the latest on Twitter. Seriously WTF?

I don't think anyone will be an actual "headliner" and even the most popular will only get maybe four songs. I don't think they even start until noon. I wonder how they get all the artists in and out of that festival - While this doesn't actually say anything about the quality of the film, I like her review of D-Day - and her take on Yoongi's maturing and mellowing out.

TXT will be only a week off from their US tour and they'll be there. I imagine that while things are up in the air and this audit is continuing, Hybe will not be promoting them. Or maybe MHJ just said no. I'd say TXT is the biggest group in the lineup. But that's me. I cannot get over the audacity and delusion when she claims that she created BTS. The absurdity of that is glaring. I feel sorry for the girls, though. This is such a classic example of how toxic some management people can be (and I don't mean BigHit.). Jimin got two Webby awards -

Such a sociopath, especially leaking info on medical stuff, for minors, but also for anyone. There was this as the 'next up" YouTube and has more info.

Anyone even hinting that it was they who "created BTS'' is beyond delusional. i'd say I feel sorry for her but I don't, not even a little bit. She could say that she created k-pop and have as much credibility. Hoping i can get subs for this - https://www.threads.net/@purple_lovetae07/post/C6F_wv-PJ_B/?xmt=AQGz7G1kJ9FAnsY17bhrMUAFSQbH72CMhypOAcnSXCcEIw

Now that I've read more, I get your point. If she had been an employee of Hybe, she'd have been fired long ago, releasing confidential info. Most of the thread about it seems to lean towards her and anti-Hybe. I actually tried to buy Hybe stock today because I can get international stock with my new broker (and it's not like I have some big portfolio), but it's Korea that is preventing sale of Korean stock outside the country. The country is worried that NoKorea and/or China will try to manipulate and destroy businesses.

I shouldn't think this will affect the members or Hybe. The problem seems to be remedied. And they must have someone, either individually or as a group, to represent their interests. I should think individuals, since they all own differing amounts of Hybe and surely have someone whoo is looking after their financial business while they are in the military. What a bitch. A nice message -

At least a little news...

Oh - I like this clip. We've seen the Suchwita episode butt nice to revisit this tiny bit of history reminding us of the tough times for the members.... https://www.threads.net/@purple_lovetae07/post/C5_PKOhP_cH/?xmt=AQGz2eUZpkSVKfnb3t2l2gccEYdu-XBID3_ZkKo2ekXmhA

Yes. A film following him on tour. Maybe. I hope they used a different editor and director than the concert film. There's already a Road to D-Day on Disney, so that makes this a little curious. It could be a "making of" similar to Jimin's production diary, but this seems like something else. They did release a lot of media (for free!) on Weverse about D-Day. I can't think of any other song on the album that there could be another MV for. Any guesses? It is cheering to hear him ask us to wait for him in 2025, especially since the last clip was shot shortly before he disappeared from view and enlisted.

I love that the boys were into the music, too. Some little girls crying when they were going to leave. "Don't cry." I know that they have to perform in lots of places, but generally with kids who are at least teenagers. This is so sweet, and so easy to see how the members enjoyed it.

It can't be actual Koreans harassing Master Park- Koreans are , if nothing else, extraordinarily age deferential. I think that the solo era was beneficial for each of the members and their growth as artists, but it was also inevitable that there would be an increase in individual stans. There are so many who think that JK and Tae should leave BTS and just stay solo. Part of this is because of their individual charms, but also because they were also the final two to have their solo stuff released. And Jin has been gone for 16 months - an eternity to an 18 year old fan. Time has made some forget where the individual artists came from and to where they will gladly return.

I don't get to Seoul until maybe June 11 or 12th at the latest. Arriving as Jin is discharged, which is pretty cool, though I'll only be there until the 14th and then on to Jeju. I hope to get back to Seoul for a couple of days before I come back before the last week of July. Way too much time to be away from the dogs. And then I go back in September, maybe the 10th. I won't be there when Hobi is discharged, but who knows, maybe Jin will have some sort of performance after he's been home a couple of months. I may be in LA during the time it's there, if I can line up a dog sitter, but haven't been able to yet. But I still hope that Jin goes to Jeju for relaxation and some fishing. The chance of me bumping into him is about the same as me winning the lottery but you never know. The pop-ups will likely me pretty cool, but the Proof exhibit last May in LA was a bust and a waste of money. I had thought there would be some release or re-release that all ARMY could throw their money at.

It is a pop up - which is kind of disappointing. I, too, am not wild that Tae was used for any kind of military promotional deal. And Jin has no grey hair - that's a glitch from the lighting. And I got my phone back after dark last night- but it''s not back on line yet - BTS_official ⁦‪@bts_bighit‬⁩ BTS POP-UP : MONOCHROME 🌎GLOBAL POP-UP SCHEDULE SEOUL: 04/26 - 05/12 TOKYO: 05/03 - 05/26 JAKARTA: 05/09 - 06/23 BANGKOK: 05/10 - 06/23 LA: 05/16 - 05/27 MANILA: 05/24 - 06/30 #BTS #방탄소년단 #BTS_POPUP #MONOCHROME #MNCR pic.twitter.com/o3YW8P8vcZ 4/17/24, 5:01 AM

FYI - I've been phoneless all day and still am. Stunning to realize how much I have on it, like numbers and addresses and music. An Uber driver has had it all day...long story.

Best news in a long long time- I hope it has teeth and that it doesn’t take years. Live Nation/TM are such thieves. also good news we get all seven-

You don't get Jimin? This looks like I should get Jimin. I think that there isn't enough time before promotion for some project that involves us putting out a lot of money for pre-sale, but, the 17th is the anniversary of the teaser for HYYH, so a teaser on the 17th. Weverse really wants us to stay engaged. As if we are going somewhere...... We're already in a countdown for Jin to return. 56 days.

So this is a countdown to Jin’s return? also- I hope Beomgyu isn’t hurt by Bam’s popularity.😂

Theres a bunch of debate about whether this is legit or not. But is is the official BTS twitter account so there must be something real about it- just zero indication of what it means. It's odd that there is nothing in notices on Weverse. Best guess is a re-release of The Most Beautiful Moment in Life,, pt 1, official release date of April 29, 2015. I am a little perplexed why there is nothing on Weverse about it but maybe in the next couple of days. i read that the official teasers for this were on April 17 and April 19, so maybe there will be more clues then. Or Weverse is just trying to keep ARMY engaged....

Lots of comments and replies about disappointment in Tour D-Day - The Movie. Mostly regarding the fact that it wasn't actually a full concert. News of the day: Bam has his own instagram account that picked up 2M followers; the fastest an animal account has gotten this many, JK, on Weverse: I can't brag about myself now, so I should brag about my baby I hope you have a great night Bowwow_bam Unity!!!!!!!!! When it was only 1M followers Bam officially becomes in the fastest pet account to reach 1 MILLION followers on Instagram! CONGRATULATIONS BAM CONGRATULATIONS JUNGKOOK pic.twitter.com/3DqzC3fITS https://www.instagram.com/reel/C5ugDp4J7ER/?igsh=MTc4MmM1YmI2Ng%3D%3D This one even has JKs voice Didn't we used to get notifications if one of the members added something to the Weverse page - or only if on the Artist page? And this IS posted on the artist page......

Well, I chose not to go, just feeling that an 80 minute version was going to be a mash-up and leave me wanting. I thought that Jimin, JK and RM were supposed to have their full performances in it, so that is interesting - though, seriously, the three of them is a minimum of 12 minutes, easily, and that would leave a bit more than an hour, plus credits - I have read the same complaints about the editing and construct of the film and want to see who did the direction and then look at who did PtD and the tour movies., and the programs about album prep for Jimin and Yoongi and Hobi, all the “ Roads to“ and Production diaries. I really think everyone should send a complaint letter to BigHit. True that Hybe is frightfully commercial, and I get that, but there feels something un-BTS like about lessening the product quality. It clearly was not even as advertised - the final encore concert. The imdb page just has Hybe as “ production “ but the other concert films have actual, named directors. It's lazy of Hybe, at best. I'm not sure who a letter should even go to,, though a cc to Bang sounds right. With a new baby ARMY on board after seeing this film, I think that all ARMY deserve to have anything released with BTS on it to be quality. I'll try to figure out what department legit complaints should go to. Seems to me that they'd have been more consistent to have just shown the actual encore concert,, even if they wanted to edit some of the between songs talking out. I feel like people expecting a full concert were cheated. ( It is not lost on me that I didn't even go see it because of what I presumed would be hacked up editing... )
