The Tear-Jerking Encore Opening Scene of SEVENTEEN's Concert (ft. IMA - Even If the World Ends Tomorrow)

 

IMA's opening... So youthful... You guys are my youth. 

After circling around the stage, the song reaches its peak and S.Coups said, 'You guys have worked hard!' and rushed out onto the stage. It's really touching. I love this kind of emotion. 

For your information, the song is IMA - Even If the World Ends Tomorrow -! It's on the album released yesterday!


I have one thing I want to protect; Slightly raised lips, a small smile, even small happiness

Gathering ordinary days, growing up to be adults; It's not easy, but there's no regret

Yesterday, today, and tomorrow coming again; All of this is beautiful because it's you

If, let's say, the world's last night comes; I imagined what I could do for you

For you, Last dance; If I can keep your bright smile

If I can, I would dance all night; Our Last dance and last chance

Even if the world ends today; What's most important is our present

Yesterday, today, and tomorrow coming again; All of this is beautiful because it's you

If, let's say, the world's last night comes; I imagined what I could do for you

For you, Last dance; If I can keep your bright smile

If I can, I would dance all night; Our Last dance and last chance

Even if the world ends today; What's most important is our present

Even if the world's last night comes today; What's most important is our present

Woozi said that so many good things were happening and everything was going so well that he felt he would have no regrets even if he died. He said, "Even the world ends, I will dance for the last time in front of Carats"

-What's most important is our presentㅜㅜ

(Article from 2017) BTS' Lawyer stated, "Deceptive Marketing = Viral Promotion, There's No Proof of Illegal Money Being Paid"

 Q: We're curious about the current progress of the case. Who was accused? When was the complaint filed? What does the verdict say?

A: Big Hit had commissioned advertising and publicity services to the perpetrator, Mr. N, 2 years ago. However, it ended as a one-time project without any significant results. Mr. N threatened Big Hit's CEO in early 2017, claiming to possess 'inappropriate marketing materials' and threatening to 'expose them on social media if payment was not made.' As stated in the verdict, knowing well that mere threats can tarnish an image in the entertainment industry, the CEO attempted to resolve the issue directly. However, the CEO realized that this matter couldn't be resolved individually and brought it up to the company. Big Hit then proceeded to report the whole situation to the police. Mr. N eventually was sentenced to one year in prison for violations of the Act on the Aggravated Punishment of Specific Crimes and Fraud on August 31, 2017. 

Q: According to the verdict, the perpetrator allegedly made threats using Big Hit's alleged deceptive marketing as a pretext. Can you elaborate?

A: Big Hit is audited by one of the four major accounting firms. At the time, all related advertising and publicity costs went through legitimate accounting processes, so the perpetrator's accusations were baseless. The term 'deceptive marketing' is used to describe twisting regular online marketing into something malicious. 

Q: How severe were the threats made by the perpetrator? What prompted Big Hit's decision to file charges?

A: Mr. N went as far as creating a fake identity and committing fraud. He claimed to be a victim too and repeatedly threatened Big Hit's CEO through emails and calls. As stated in the verdict, he demanded 330 M KRW, but his threats had nothing to do with the company's advertising deals. Therefore, Big Hit reported the matter to the police and an investigation began. Big Hit has been transparent about the matter, informing the authorities, and cooperating fully with the investigation. The CEO also took personal steps to lessen the impact on the artist's reputation. 

theqoo

-They said access to the verdict has been available since 2019, but this article is from 2017?

-Why mention a 2017 article?

-Guess they didn't expect the verdict to be accessible.

-No explanation or apology, just the old stuff keeps coming up.

-So, they just brushed it off like this back in 2017.

-It's really disappointing.

-They're being cornered by accusations of chart manipulation right now.

-Fabricated propagandaㅋㅋㅋㅋ

HYBE's Stock is Expected to Bounce Back if New Jeans' Activities Gain Momentum

 Daeshin Securities expects HYBE's stock to rebound significantly if New Jeans' activities become more visible to the public, maintaining their recommendation to buy the stock. The target price remains at 330,000 KRW, as it closed at 205,000 KRW yesterday. 

Im Soojin, the researcher of Daeshin Securities stated, "Due to the ongoing feud between HYBE and Min Heejin, the company's image has been tarnished. This causes a -11% stock return compared to the 19th. With the shareholders' meeting that is expected to take at least 8 to 9 weeks, fluctuations in the stock price are likely to persist." She added, "If the conflict nears resolution and New Jeans' activities become more visible to the public, HYBE's stock recovery will likely speed up."

Im also observed solidarity of New Jeans' fandom following Min Heejin's press conference through album purchases. With growing public interest, New Jeans' album sales are anticipated to exceed previous predictions. 

theqoo

-Hey guys, let's read the article. It's not HYBE's claim it's an analysis from the securities industry. 

-Hey, everyone calm down. Don't misunderstand just by reading the title. It's not HYBE's propaganda; it's an analysis from the securities industry.

-HYBE, you heartless bastards.

-People are going crazy just by seeing the word 'HYBE'. They won't even think about reading the whole article. 

-ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ This is ridiculous, seriously.

-Unbelievable.

-They're shamelessly trying to fire Min Heejin and use New Jeans to boost the fallen stock pricesㅋㅋㅋ Do they have any conscience?

-They're just thugs at this point

-Let's see how they treat New Jeans, I'll watch it closely with my eyes wide open.

-But seriously, HYBE is really disgusting.

-Ah, as a shareholder, I hope the stock price recovers quickly, but I don't want to see Bang Si-hyuk's face... damn.

-This is bullshit, seriously.

-Bang pig, get out.

-Have a bit of conscience.

-Do they think the public is blind?

-Without Min Heejin, who knows what will happen to New Jeans.

-Even though Min Heejin produced it, New Jeans is originally HYBE's asset.

HYBE Requests Permission to Hold a Meeting with Shareholders to Dismiss Min Heejin ... Hearing Today

 

An investigation is currently happening about HYBE asking to hold a meeting with shareholders to dismiss ADOR's CEO, Min Heejin.

The Seoul Western District Court will hold a hearing on the application for permission for HYBE to hold a meeting with shareholders at 4.35PM on the 30th. The hearing will be conducted privately in accordance with Non-Contentious Case Procedure Act. 

If the court approves, a notice of meeting will be sent to the shareholders, and 15 days later, the meeting between the shareholders and board of directors will be held. At the meeting, HYBE is expected to dismiss the existing board of directors, including Min Heejin, and appoint new directors. The overall process is expected to take about two months.

-Really, HYBE?ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Don't permit it, Seoul Western District Court! Reject it! It's absurd! Don't yield to HYBE's pressure! Please!

-Truly legendaryㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-No conscience at all...

-Is there a high possibility of dismissal if the shareholders' meeting is held?

-It won't be permitted...

-Min Heejin was right, there are too many Shibal Saekkis, really..

-The ship is sinking, I see it as a downhill road for sure...

-Why on earth is this happening? I don't understand.

-Finish it quickly so that New Jeans doesn't suffer too much... We're going to part ways anywayㅠ

-Sirs, please get a grip;

-It's difficult to stay together anyway

-Dragging it out as long as possible, it's really despicable, those old men at HYBE are really pathetic, they should leave first

-But it's possible that it won't be permitted

-Just go to hell

-Why are even the shareholders trying to kick out Min Heejin..?ㅠㅜ I don't understand...

-How are they going to run without Min Heejin...?

-Please, court, reject itㅠㅠ

-Truly frustrating, this is nonsense

-Dirty bastards

-..... HYBE is really too much

-A company that drives out capable workers is a company that can't do its job well, well done

-Shareholders will be on HYBE's side, won't they?

HYBE's Employees Raises Suspicions of ADOR's Alleged Use of Online PR Companies to Manipulate Public Opinion

 

On the HYBE employee board on Blind, an online community where only employees can post using their company email, posts related to these suspicions have been published.

One employee expressed concern, stating, "I heard they're now using online PR companies to manipulate public opinion. Suddenly, all sorts of company posts, especially those regarding remarks that CEO Min Heejin has previously made, are popping up. Are they manipulating public opinion? They say the online PR company specializes in public opinion manipulation. Is this really happening to us? Unless you're in the same industry, it's easy to believe everything. It's unfair."

In response, other employees commented, "Over the weekend, there were so many biased posts undermining HYBE on Blind that it was absurd. Thanks to them, the manipulation of public opinion seems to be successful, but it's terrible."

Another employee mentioned, "During the company audit, there was a conversation log from April about 'preparing for May's public opinion battle,' and it seems like they're now executing what was already prepared. They also claim that the law firm Sejong, which CEO Min Heejin is currently associated with, is skilled in public opinion warfare."

 On the contrary, there is a counter-argument suggesting that HYBE initiated the public opinion battle before CEO Min Heejin's press conference. It is known that these suspicions are also included in the ongoing audit by HYBE.

theqoo

-Is it possible that those employees think HYBE is working on manipulating public opinion because that's what they're always ordered to do?

-I didn't know I was an employee of an online PR company, wow

-Do those employees have time to post on communities like this now?ㅋㅋㅋ

-Yeah, HYBE posted hundreds of articles criticizing Min Hee-jin for three days straight, so shut up.

-These employees seem to don't do any work at all and spend their whole day scrolling online communities instead

-Hmm... Even if it was Min Hee-jin who did it... who started it first? 

-What are you talking about? Stop wasting your time and get to work.

-Seems like they think everyone does it just because they do it themselves.

-Because they do it themselves, they probably think others do too. Stop going on online communities and do some work.

-When the public opinion favors them, it's justified. But when it favors someone else, it's manipulation done by the company?ㅋㅋㅋ

-I'm curious about how those public opinion manipulation works, but if Min Heejin can do it, then any company can. 

-Hey, if you're going to pay, I'd love to leave a commentㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Am I doing unpaid labor?
