Also.

Does anyone know what the goal or target of the boycott is? Seems to me like it's not going to actually help Seventeen, unless I'm missing something???

Also also

I hope Seungkwan is able to still enjoy the rest of his time on tour in spite of all this going on. Next show isn't until Thursday so I hope he can rest have some fun with the members.

everyone in svt is a multimillionaire i dont think buying goods matters to them anymore

I mean yeah lol I don't think the members of Seventeen are going to hurting for money because of the boycott, but like unless it's well organized with specific demands and has EVERYONE on board... like idk. It's just gonna mean Seventeen is seen as a bit less profitable by Hybe and I don't see how that benefits Seventeen.

i don't think they're trying to benefit svt. i think they don't want their money going to hybe, that's about it. the few statements i've seen here and there are just like "all i can really do is cancel my purchases, i don't want to be involved in this."

i haven't seen anything about the boycott but until bts comes back next year, seventeen is far and away their most profitable group given whatever torpedo is happening with new jeans (i can't even keep track tbh)

i would imagine that the goal is more to hurt hybe than to help svt

I think people are cancelling memberships as an "on principle" protest. I don't think any kind of boycott can work here because not enough kpop fans ever get on board for any of them to do anything.
