A company that has crossed the line and currently receiving complaints from the fandom

 It's ARTMS' agency, MODHAUS. (Yes, that crazy company)

To explain the situation, ARTMS has a fan voting system called 'Gravity' where fans directly vote to make decisions about various things

It's similar to how TripleS, who is under the same company, determines their units through voting. You know that, right? It's exactly the same system. However, ARTMS is an already completed group. Until now, they've been using Gravity to decide things like the fandom name, the location for their first group photoshoot, and pre-release songs.

However, Gravity has started to get strange.

During their tour, they're voting on which member should wear a camera to show the concert from their perspective... ㅎ

(Fans want to see the members, why would they want to see it from one member's viewpoint? It's making fans confused)

Of course, this is a vote to choose one member, and it’s causing dissatisfaction among fans.

Now, this latest Gravity has pushed fans to the brink of explosion.

This time they're filming the members having fun on their day off during the tour, with a 'pocket money budget vote'. The reason is because the first place gets 300 euros while the fifth place gets 10 euros.

The fans are dissatisfied because the Gravity system is ranking the members.

The voting also includes revealing intermediate rankingsㅋㅋㅋ

For your information, this isn't a one-person-one-vote system. Fans can vote for unlimited times^^

Plus, of course, it’s "paid."

The reason fans are even more angry is that ARTMS is a group made up of five members who barely gathered after LOONA disbanded. Fans know how hard the process of gathering them was.

The previous agency split the members, engaged in unfair promotions, and the fans were well aware of how disillusioned they felt, so pretending to care for the members while ultimately doing this with Gravity made them explode.

Reactions in the video comments are cold; both Korean and international fans are angry.

 In fact, because the previous agency was so immoral, fans had been holding back their complaints, but they’re now reacting intensely, asking if the company only sees their artists as money.

They've been together since LOONA's solo era until they finally become a full group... They were the ones who createed LOONA, how could they do this...ㅎ

theqoo

-This is really too much...

-They don’t know when to stop.

-Why do they have to decide such trivial things through voting and upset the fans?

-It's understandable for TripleS to have unit voting system since they have a lot of members. But here, it's very cruel of the company to do voting with just 5 members in this group... It's very obvious that they're just trying to rank the 5 members.

-I really hate this. And I bet the girls probably hate it too.

-I can totally understand why fans are angry... What are they doing?

-It's so obvious that the company is just trying to rank them

-They are obsessed with money.

-They really love voting.

-The company is making fans pay for unlimited voting? That’s insane.

-Why are they voting on such trivial things with so few members?

-Why are they doing such voting with five members? I really hate it.

-They've really crossed the line...

A Kpop spoiler account that's making everyone wonder the real identity behind it

 

Before comebacks, they drop hints with images resembling the artists' concept photos and they get everything right.

It's not limited to any one agency's idols, they cover all Kpop artists, from soloists to groups, causing their follower count to steadily rise.

At first, people joked that they were just pulling images from Pinterest, but it turns out they’re not only predicting concept photos. 

Spoiling comeback schedules is just the basics. 

They even leak spoilers about upcoming photoshoots. 

They also give spoilers about new lightstick designs 

And exhibitions 

They also leak spoilers about concert news and got it right 

 

They even guessed the title of ILLIT's title track

They spoil all kind of Kpop news and get them all right, causing buzz. Even international fans are wondering about the identity of the person behind this account.

theqoo

-Whoa... What does this person do?

-It's fascinating how people consume this kind of content

-This is making Kpop boring

-I don't like this... At this point, the person behind that account must be someone deeply involved in the industry. Why are they doing that, though?

-They're just an attention seeker.

-Hul... Aespa renewed their lightstick? I hope they fix the brightness this time.

-I checked their tweets about my faves and it's all wrong

-It's an account that everyone who knows already knows, so why the fuss?

-They seem to be an employee of a distribution company or a major record label.

Drama adaptation of webtoon Dear X casting lineup

 

Kim Yoojung as Baek Ahjin, the sociopathic top actress

What should I do? I only pity myself. Do I have to understand others' pain too?

Whoever it is, whenever it happens, for whatever reason... I'll sweep away anything that stands in my way. I’ll rise to a place where no one can touch me.

Kim Youngdae as Yoon Junseo, who aims to destroy her to protect Baek Ahjin

If God really does exist, I want to ask: Why do I love such a wicked person?

You'll be punished. You’ll live as miserably as the pain you've caused others. I know that, that's why I can't leave.

Kim Dohoon as Kim Jaeoh, who blindly protects Baek Ahjin in every moment.

I told you, just use me. I’m just a guy with nothing to lose. I don’t mind if you pawn my life.

I’m too dumb to think about what's helpful to you. I’m just thinking of betting my life on the only person who’s ever been on my side... if that's what you want.

Lee Yeol-eum as Rena, an idol-turned-top actress with an optimistic personality who has a crush on Yoon Jeonseo

(Her character seems to have changed quite a bit from the original webtoon)

Special appearances: Hwang Inyeop as Heo Ingang, Kim Jihoon (Speculation), etc

Director: Lee Eung-bok (Goblin, Mr. Sunshine, Sweet Home)

Planned to air on TVING in 2025.

-I'm looking forward to Kim Dohoon...

-I like all three of them... I hope it turns out fun for me.

-There’s no actor here that excites me.

-I'm so freaking excited for Kim Yoojung's acting as a sociopathㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ

-Oh... I like all three of themㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ I'm so excited!

-Ah... I'm not looking forward to it.

-I like Kim Yoojung, but she doesn’t match the character's image from the webtoon at allㅠ

-Hul... I love Kim Youngdae and Kim Dohoon

-The male lead’s acting is so bad...

-Who keeps casting Kim Youngdae? I don’t think I’ll be watching this because of the male lead.

-Whoa... Based on the images, they all suit their characters.

-The male and female lead casting doesn’t suit the roles. The characters are complex and require strong internal acting, plus the second male lead's character and acting are good, so the lead actor might easily get overshadowed.

-I like Kim Youngdae because he's handsome.

-I haven’t read the original work, but just from the description, it feels like a drama where the second lead fans will go wild.

I will be waiting for WannaOne's Nth anniversary concert (Unreleased cuts from "Do You Want Some Ramyun?")

 

Daehwi: Recently, 2NE1 Sunbaenims held their 15th anniversary concert, and it was such a hot thing, bringing back so much nostalgia. So I thought that if we also had a reunion concert sometime in the distant future, when everyone has some free time, it would be a huge gift for the fans.

Kang Daniel: It's like a trip down memory lane... Wow, I got chills.

theqoo

-I'll be waitingㅠㅠ

-'In the distant future'

-I miss themㅠㅠ

-They must really miss each other too

-Please do it, I'll go.

-Please do it, I’ll be waiting ㅠㅠㅠ

-I’ll even go with a cane if I have to. I’m still sad I missed the last concert because I was preparing for exams.

-I have bad knees now, but if you guys do it, I’ll still go to the 4th floor at Gocheok Dome.

-I don’t know about a concert, but a talk show might be doable… Please gather someday for the nostalgia.

-Just do it, I’ll definitely go.

-Please do it, I’ll cry if they actually hold a concertㅠㅠㅠㅠ

-'In the distant future'... Yeah....

-But if they're gonna do it, they’ll have to wait for the members in the military to finish their service first...

-I’m waiting for you, guys ㅠㅠ

Fans are getting tired of talking about Karina's outfit issues

 



She was sent on stage with needles still in her clothes.

The strap is about to rip...

Again and again.

Yet again.

Her skin is irritated because of the outfit...ㅠ


......

Please

theqoo

-Needles? Isn’t that insane? That’s terrifying.

-Whoa, if I were a fan, I'd be furious. Why is this happening? And not just once or twice???

-Aespa's stylist is so incompetent. Why hasn't SM Ent. fired them yet?

-The needles and shoes are way too dangerous...

-At this point, I’d believe it if someone said her stylist did this on purpose.

-How is the stylist still not fired? I’m genuinely curious.

-What is this? Are they gluing the clothes together? Everything’s falling apart. Fans must be so angry and upset.

-I'm sooooo exhausted from being angry... Everything is just so terrible.

-This only happens to Karina...? Is the stylist jealous of her or what?

-Are they trying to injure her with those needles and shoes?

-Maybe it’s just me, but this looks like harassment at this point...

-They seriously need to change Aespa's stylist... This is too much.

-This is seriously very upsetting..........

-Why don’t they replace the stylist? The stylist must be an anti-fan.

-This is seriously dangerous. Is Karina just putting up with it? What’s going on?

-Fans must be so stressed to see this...

7-year-old girl group Fromis9 is finally gaining recognition...

 

Ranks 7th on Melon TOP 100

Ranks 11th on Melon Daily Chart

theqoo

-Isn't this the group that was rigged? The one where Lee Haein actually ranked 1st in?

-Their previous songs were much better. This one’s really bad... I stopped listening after one play.

-Their previous releases are better.

-Rigging aside, I think their previous releases are better. It's kinda surprising to know that this is their highest-ranked song yet...

-The song is really good. Super super.

-I don’t know their older songs well, but this new one is good.

-This song is indeed very good. It's the song I listen to on my way to and off from work.

-If they maintain the song quality, the ranking for the next song should also be decent.

-The song was good, I listened to it while getting ready for work today.

-I understand the members worked hard, and the song is good.... But honestly, I can't support them...

-They’ve consistently released good songs.

-The song is good, but my all-time favorite is Stay This Way.

-This is very surprising because this song is not as good as their previous releases. I think songs like We Go and DM are way better than this one.
