Dispatch dug their own grave amidst HYBE's controversy

 

Min Heejin chose trainees at Source Music. She transferred Minji, Hanni, Haerin, Danielle, Hyein, and others. Instead, she transferred the training costs to Source. 

Is Min Heejin the mother of New Jeans? It's true that she was the one who delivered them into the world. She made New Jeans better than anyone else. But the one who gave birth to New Jeans was So Sungjin. They are the children who he has worked diligently on for over three years. 

Of course, no one disputes Min Heejin's efforts. She reinterpreted Y2K sentiment in a modern way and, with 250, completed a Korean-style easy listening. 

Dispatch made a legendary nonsense remark by saying that "Min Heejin may have delivered New Jeans into the world. but the one who gave birth to New Jeans was So Sungjin", and went silence since then.

(So Sungjin = Source Music CEO = LE SSERAFIM's company)

-Wow, this is seriously nauseating...

-Dispatch, from Han Sohee's dating rumors to this...ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Seriously, don't trust Dispatch, they're just sticking around for the money to sway public opinion.

-And they have been really quiet since then...

-Is Dispatch going out of business? Why so quiet?

-Someone needs to investigate Dispatch too.

-Seriously?ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Not surprised

-I wonder how much money they pocketed from HYBE.

-ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ They really thought they'd easily win this fight

-What are they doing these days?

-Dispatch has been so quiet these days, I thought they went out of businessㅋㅋㅋ

-The members of New Jeans must have been really dumbfounded to hear this.

-It's really funny how quiet it's been since the press conference. Do they think we don't notice?

-Someone please find out how much money they receivedㅋㅋㅋ Dispatch and HYBE are so disgusting.

-Dispatch might as well just shut down and start writing web novels, seriously. Their writing style is so cringeworthy.

It seems like these groups' images are getting harmed as HYBE's reputation is going down...

theqoo

-I also deleted their songs from my playlist.

-I won't support them either.

-Honestly, if they were good, I might still listen to them despite all the controversies, but it seems impossible now.

-Why support HYBE idols?

-I deleted all their songs because I think of Bang Si-hyuk when they come up on shuffle.

-I already knew ILLIT was a knock-off, but I was surprised even people who aren't interested in idols knew about them.

-I don't listen to either of them.

-I won't support them anymore.

-I just can't bring myself to support them anymore.

-Now... I just can't listen to these groups anymore.

-Anyway, I'm starting to dislike HYBE, so I won't consume their content anymore.

-Even for someone who doesn't know much about girl groups, once you hear ILLIT, you can't think of anything other than New Jeans' knock-off.

-Their image is already ruined

-I've completely lost interest in them...

-ILLIT might have a chance to recover their image since they're still rookies, as long as there's not too much excessive promotion. 

-Haven't listened since the dispute started.

-All this mess was caused by Bang Sihyuk and Park Jiwon.

"Bang Sihyuk Refuses to Greet New Jeans' Members" ... ADOR Confirms, "It's True"

 

On the 13th, Ilgan Sports revealed the full email sent by Min Heejin to HYBE. The email included a letter sent by the parents of New Jeans' members to ADOR. 

In the letter, the parents expressed concern that HYBE's rookie girl group, ILLIT, intentionally imitated New Jeans' concept. They requested clarification behind HYBE/BELIFT Lab's intentions in using a similar concept and stated, "If this continues, it's obvious that New Jeans' honor and brand value will be damaged."

Amidst this, ADOR stated, "It is true that the letter was written by the parents of New Jeans' members. It is also true that CEO Min Heejin forwarded it to HYBE via email."

theqoo

-So childish... What is he even doing?

-Crazy loser grandpa.

-Didn't he feel ashamed when he ignored greetings from kids?ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-He refuses to receive New Jeans' greetings even though the girls made so much money for HYBE?ㅋㅋㅋㅋ In other words, he ignores the girls' greetings, but happily take the money they earnㅋㅋㅋ

-What have you eaten to become like this, Bang Sihyuk?

-What are you doing to these young girls, really? So pathetic, I hate it. The fact that he runs the biggest idol company in our country...

-Would you do that to your granddaughters?

-As an adult, why is he doing this to the young girls?

-Even if you gain money and status, you're still a loser.

-Wake up, old man.

-What's wrong with this guy?;;

-It's heartbreaking, what is he doing to these girls?...

-Wowㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Not even accepting greetings from kids? He must be crazy with inferiority complex.

-Ugh, what a pig.

Bang Sihyuk personally carried additional goods with his own car when LE SSERAFIM's pop-up store ran out of stock

 

The store opens at 10 AM. But since it takes 20 minutes to arrange the goods, fans are getting upset and asking for more items.

Then, on the 4th day, Bang Sihyuk himself showed upㅋㅋㅋ

He personally brought the goods with his car.

Later, Huh Yunjin revealed a conversation she had with Bang Si-hyuk. "I met Sihyuk-nim recently. We talked about concerns, the next album, and various other things. During this conversation, we also talked about this 'EASY' activity. He said, 'Actually, I was deeply moved by you all this time. I was worried about the choreography until the day of the music video, but I was really surprised by how much you changed and came back.' When he asked me, 'How did you do it?' I replied, 'Hehe... Well...' and laughed, but the resonance of that question grew on me more as I thought about it," she revealed.

LE SSERAFIM "Our team name was directly created by Bang Sihyuk PD, makes it even more special"

LE SSERAFIM "Our team name was given directly by Bang Sihyuk ... It's even more meaningful"

theqoo

-The discrimination is too severe.

-Ugh... Seriously, I feel like I'm going to vomit.

-Why does he discriminate between labels so severely... It's really pathetic. He's acting like a spoiled brat.

-What did the artists do wrong? But honestly, the more it unfolds, the more the artists become disliked...

-Bang Si-hyuk's princess treatment.

-I really hate open discrimination like this.

-New Jeans must have really had a hard time.

-Such dedication, damn.

-I really feel like vomiting...

-Bang Sihyuk treasures LE SSERAFIM a lot, huh?ㅋㅋㅋ

-Bang Sihyuk, despite his position, is emotionally immature as he ages..

-Did he give birth to them? Well, looking at his belly, it's possible.

Pledis official statement regarding fromis_9 neglect controversy (Increasing event invitations, comeback preparations proceeding smoothly)

 

On the 13th, Pledis Ent. revealed that festival invitations are pouring in for Fromis_9.

The girls are set to kick off their comeback preparations by participating in major festivals and events. On the 17th, they will perform at the festival of Dongyang University in Seoul, followed by an appearance at the 'Spring Breeze in Campus' event at the Peace Hall of Kyunghee University on the 18th.

On the 21st, they will take the stage at the 'KBS Korea on Stage' event held at Gyeongbokgung Palace in Seoul to raise awareness about the importance of national heritage.

From June to August, they are scheduled to appear at various festivals. Starting from the 'Weverse Con Festival' on June 16th, followed by the 'Waterbomb 2024 Nationwide Tour' in Seoul on July 5th, and performances in Incheon on August 3rd.

The agency stated, "In addition, we are actively negotiating with various festival organizers and coordinating other performances." 

Fromis_9's member Lee Chaeyoung recently expressed her sadness during a live broadcast, saying, "Why can't we, only us, fromis_9, be active for so long? It's so sad," and "I also have Flovers (official fandom name). I also have fans. We also have Flovers," which led to speculation among some fans about being 'neglected'.

On the other hand, Pledis Entertainment responded indirectly to such suspicions. The agency stated, "We are smoothly progressing with fromis_9's comeback preparations. We plan to showcase various activities, including not only music but also a photo exhibition, this year," and added, "We will spare no effort in providing the necessary support for this."

theqoo

-Yeah...

-Holding events without releasing an album seems half-hearted.

-It's obvious they're rushing...

-Everything, including Weverse concerts, was already planned before this fuss.

-They're asking for a comeback and a new album.

-Eventually, they're not preparing for a new album after all.

-Neglect? They're always busy with Weverse schedules, events, individual song features, and more.

-If they're having one comeback a year, they're doing enough.

-I thought they were being neglected when the controversy first arises, but they did concerts this year, released singles, and participated in big events, so...

-They really weren't neglected. Considering this group is fabricated, just being able to do what they're doing now is something to be grateful for.

-They have a lot of schedules, and they've been around for seven years. Isn't releasing an album once a year enough?

-Why is this a neglect? The group only has 4 months left until their contract expires, which company would release an album in that situation??

-They were never neglected to begin with...

The surprising facts that New Jeans' parents revealed in their statement

 

1. HYBE hired staff with no prior experience with idols to work with New Jeans' debut, suggesting something intentional behind it.

--> BELIFT Lab took away all of New Jeans' staff

2. When New Jeans' members encounter Bang Sihyuk at the company, he acts like he doesn't know them and ignores their greetings. Parents are shocked to hear about many times when the girls felt ignored or avoided by him, sensing that he was avoiding them on purpose. As parents, we were astonished and at a loss for words. The girls are only middle and high school students.

--> Bang Sihyuk ignores New Jeans' greetings

3. The endless waiting and neglect New Jeans' members had to endure during their trainee days at Source Music, caused by HYBE breaking their promise, is an unforgettable nightmare for the girls. Some of them even considered giving up their debut because of it.

--> New Jeans almost gave up their debut because Source Music Ent. neglected them.

5. During the debut showcase, there was an article stating that Bang Sihyuk personally monitor the girls' practice videos and provided feedback, which means that he was in charge of producing. If Bang Sihyuk himself was directly involved in producing New Jeans, it would be appropriate if he made sure New Jeans' concept didn't clash with other group's concept. Even if unintentional similarities were found, he should have fixed it immediately. However, from the interview article, it seems like he was okay with it, or even encouraging it,  raising doubts about Hive's ethical consciousness.

--> It's impossible for Bang Sihyuk didn't know that ILLIT and New Jeans' concepts were similar

theqoo

-So pathetic, seriously...

-He's useless. He should stop being a problem and just leave for everyone's sake.

-Why would he hate the girls who generate money for him?

-Taking away New Jeans' staff is crossing the lines, seriously...

-It's normal for staff to move around... The staff from the early days of Big Hit probably went to other labels too, there are a lot of staff who move around between labels.

-What is he doing to these girls, seriously?

-Ugh... He's ruining everything by merging all these entertainment companies.

-It's obvious what will happen to New Jeans if Min Heejin leaves.

-It's really mean of him to ignore New Jeans' greetingsㅠㅠ

-Wow, it's so creepy that they took all the staff... It's common for staff to move around, but the fact that he made ILLIT by taking New Jeans' staff members out is just too...

-He's just a loser.

-Isn't New Jeans like the top idol group in the industry right now? They must be making a lot of money, so why does he hate them?ㅋㅋㅋ

-What's going to happen in the future...

-If I were Min Heejin, I'd take New Jeans kids leave. They're treasures of K-pop, why are they treated like this?

-He's pathetic, just pathetic. It doesn't seem like New Jeans should stay there;;;

-Disgusting, just disgusting. I hope HYBE goes bankrupt.

-I'm just sad. Seriously, it's too much. Even dogs would respond if you greet them, why does he have to be like this?

-I hope New Jeans would safely separate from HYBE and their abusive behavior🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

New Jeans' parents: "Bang Sihyuk wouldn't even receive New Jeans' greetings..."

 

Does BELIFT Lab / HYBE not have any intention to protect New Jeans?

It's really strange because there were many times when they were not recognized. It's puzzling how Bang Sihyuk would always ignore New Jeans' members and refuse to greet them when the girls encounter him at the company. 

At first, the explanation we received from the girls was, "Maybe he didn't recognize us." We had to confirm this several times. However, since this happened multiple time, with different members on different days and places, it became obvious that Bang Sihyuk actually knew the girls are New Jeans' members.

Even if Bang Sihyuk didn't know the girls are New Jeans' members, isn't it a basic manner to respond if someone greets you? Is it really difficult to respond to reply to their greetings? Hearing about how the girls were ignored, felt like they were being avoided, or sensed that they were being ignored, not just once or twice, but repeatedly, as parents, we were astonished and at a loss for words. The girls are only middle and high school students. 

Not only this. After hearing about the promise of being HYBE's first girl group, New Jeans' members signed contracts with Source Music Ent., but their debut was delayed and they had to wait without any explanation from Source Music Ent. Then, news of them signing contracts with OOO and OOO emerged. In the end, they broke their promises they had made in the contract by debuting another group as their first girl group.

The endless waiting and neglect New Jeans' members had to endure during their trainee days at Source Music, caused by HYBE breaking their promise, is an unforgettable nightmare for the girls. Some of them even considered giving up their debut because of it.

theqoo 

-The thought of Bang Sihyuk acting like he's leading Kpop makes me even more furious...

-But really, can there be another group like New Jeans?? They're not just any popular group; they're the most successful and prominent group of the 4th Gen. If they were in another company, they would've received all kinds of royal treatment and been treated like princesses. So what is this if it's not mistreatment??

-I wish Bang Sihyuk would just disappear from K-pop forever.

-Insane... Ah, it's just so pathetic and depressing...............ㅜ

-Why is someone that old acting like this? Ugh.

-He's treating the girls like dirt... I feel so sorry for New Jeans.

-Ugh, Bang Sihyuk is even more pathetic than I thoughtㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ He can't quit being childish even in with that position.

-It seems like the reason Bang Sihyuk is acting up like this is because New Jeans is doing better than the girl group he produced.

-Why is an adult... Behaving like this...? I'm so embarrassed...

-It's beyond imagination...; I don't want to see him again.

-Wow... Is he not a parent? So pathetic... It's not like the girls are some strangers anyway. Aren't they part of the same company;;;;

-The epitome of patheticness.

-Wow, it's so childish and pathetic that it's almost ridiculous.

-How can a person who runs such a big company have zero social skills like that...? No matter how much he hates New Jeans, isn't pretending to be nice a basic manner??  I thought it was childish very childish of him to avoid Min Heejin and try to get rid of her because he's not in a good mood, but why treat the kids like this...?

-Wow...ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ It's beyond childishness; isn't this harassment?

-Wow....ㅋㅋ
