Beyond being a dangerous precedent of netizens having too much power, imagine that out of ALL the things to be cancelled for it's having a girlfriend pre-debut. The netizens causing this are LOSERS!

They’re literally teenagers which makes this all the more aggravating cuz why is sm listening to 15 year olds? And these girls are bold enough to post themselves on social media.

And for what? To end the career of a guy who just did some normal teenage things? AND IT WORKED!!!

IT WORKED!!!

That's the insane thing!

they were going to send 25 trucks including in front of their advertisements/advertisers' buildings just to tank the group

it's just absolutely insane and abhorrent given i fully believe it was the members who were fine with him coming back (because they're the ones that were harmed the most by how he was acting)

the amount of hate/rejection wonbin got for his letter was something to behold too, just baffling to me

it's entirely possible the company was hiding behind him but it's equally possible they acted in concert and he was just sticking up for his friend

Hilariously, ot7 fans have been targeting companies they work with now and those companies are seeing the stories and posts. Even more funny is apparently at least one share holder is like quick they want 7 members so find a 7th member.

But honestly this sets a dangerous precedent and while I personally just want RIIZE all the way away from sm, I also want to fight back. I think sm seriously messed up with his decision.

Wait. Can I get the cliffs notes?

So this guy was in a kpop group. The guy got a similar age girlfriend. The management company kicked him out of the group. But then the guy was still bullied and the management group said he couldn’t come back to the group after all. A pop music boy band.

And people sent wreaths. Is that a metaphor because they liked his career?

Remind me to never become famous with K fans because my god.

What's Wizard Production and how does it relate to SM?

SM changed their system so here are isolated "centers" designated for the management/creative direction of certain groups. that's the name of center 5 apparently. aespa's is called "One", NCT's is called "NEO" and red velvet's is called "red".

wonder where the new gg will go tbh

ETA: oh nvm, the new gg is under shinee's/"prism"

Interesting. I'm so far removed from the activities on that level now I had no idea!

Just give me BoA's 25th anniversary celebrations next year, dammit.

This is super shitty and makes me happy I never got into Kpop because there's so much fuckery involved. If this guy goes solo I will listen just for the fuck of it, because this is terrible.
