Yeah I don’t think this a good idea for those who are already delusional! This will make the Sasaengs worse, and things like this will make people able to act more creepier than they already do! I don’t like this idea at all, don’t fans get enough content already 🤦🏻‍♀️

People will treat their bias like they are actually friends or even worse boyfriends!! 😑 And the people who sign up to this will be inundated with messages from crazy fans. This is a very bad idea!

I mean EVERYONE saw how the fan calls with Jimin went . . . right?!? Imagine that all the time. And imagine the idols having to be careful about every single thing they do and say, the more messages and videos they share . . The more chance of private things being exposed or shared by insane fans.

what the hell!!! I dont know if its the weverse version of bubble but we dont want that! this is not a good idea. this is creepy and will only make the crazies crazier. i dont think bangtan will participate in this but still, we dont want that.

haven’t seen lots of awareness brought to this in enhablr yet but i really wish all engenes could also post about & talk about the mistreatment they’re getting from belift. the way they haven’t had not even five days of rest the past two years is so concerning. the way the members’ healths are getting worse is so terrifying. they’re all so horrendously overworked and exhausted. we all saw jay’s injury and how they STILL made him perform despite the fact that his knee was injured. and now he’s on a hiatus that probably won’t even last that long considering how greedy their company is.

jake had to sit out from two different stages in their most recent concert and couldn’t even open his eyes when he was present for the other stages. heeseung can’t even properly perform with how overworked and exhausted he is. riki even spoke out about fainting in his weverse (whether it was a mistranslation or joke or not) this is all so terrifying. it’s so concerning because every engene knows how much enha love music & how much they love performing and having concerts for their fans.

their schedules for the past two years have literally been inhumane. comeback after comeback. tour after tour. event after event. concert after concert. belift is treating the members like they’re literal robots and the only people that can actually stop this is engenes themselves the longer you demand for a rest for the boys for no more comebacks and even boycott the higher of a chance enha will have a BREAK.

so please as an engene SPEAK OUT. repost reblog on here on every platform retweet on X share posts on tumblr use hashtags do whatever you can in your power for enha because it’s so clear they don’t have anyone else but us engenes when their own company is treating them like this.

mind you. they’re planning on making enhypen have another comeback at the final quarter of this year. AGAIN.

LET ENHYPEN REST ‼️

"That company is doing nothing":  Fans express frustration as they notice the lack of promotion for BTS V's upcoming solo debut, LayoVer

The release date of BTS V's solo album LayoVer is near, and ARMYs notice the promotions and content from the idol's agency, HYBE Labels.

proud of our self-made artist👑🔥

Note: magazine covers & local entertainment programs are not related to the company btw we're talking about the lack of proper pr by company for their artist's debut including billboards, posters, ads etc (cr: @/wintertaetae19)

[HYBE] recorded a sales increase of 21% compared to the same period last year due to activities of its affiliated label artists & BTSV's performance. He was the 1st solo artist to sell a domestic record of 2M copies of an album in its first week of release.

THIS IS EXTREMELY CONCERNING AND NEEDS IMMEDIATE ATTENTION AND ACTION.

Una Guía Para Boicotear HYBE #HybeDivestFromZionism (Spanish Ver.)

Una Guía Para Boicotear HYBE #HybeDivestFromZionism (Spanish Ver.)

My thoughts on the dynamic pricing fiasco:

This is the one thing that will make me hesitate to buy concert tickets. In fact, i would rather buy resale than have the price fluctuate while the tickets are in my cart. I need to know what they are costing me so i can make a responsible decision. I have a budget that i have to stick to, especially since i fly internationally for concerts (BTS, please come to Australia...)

In addition, if HYBE made this decion, and not BH, how much chance is there of it being reversed? I dont know what the tiers of power and decision making look like in that company anymore so if someone can enghten me, I'd appreciate it.

My thoughts on the AI generated music:

How does this affect the artist's rights? What about their royalties?

But besides that, it totally misses the point for me, on what we as a fandom love about BTS. It's about them as much as it's about the music.

For me personally... I adore those guys. I love seeing them do their thing on stage. I love the shenanigans they get up to. I love the insigts and wisdom they share. I love their interactions. Iove their individual personalities. I love that i feel like I'm a microscopic part of their story. I wont get any of that with AI content.

Dynamic Pricing & AI

According to the Hybe Q1 conference call held on Tuesday, May 2nd 2023, the company has chosen to apply the dynamic pricing system to SUGA and TXT concerts in the US, with plans to opt-in to more dynamic pricing in the future.

"Dynamic pricing" is the strategy of constantly adjusting prices in response to demand. It's basically an auction model, where more bids drive up the prices. Meaning, you could select a modest concert seat for $175 and while in the cart, other people selecting seats will drive the price up to $975 right as you check out. You won't know until right as you pay. You can easily be blindsided.

While legal (for now), it's essentially price gauging, and it's unnecessary. ARMY is desperate for Hybe to restock merch (like JK's mikrokosmos lamp) and to sell again any discontinued boxed sets and special edition items. If done right, restocking merch and selling content from the last 10 years would absolutely help carry profits through the two years BTS serves. Additionally, many ARMY are willing to pay to see official live streams of concerts, or are comfortable with the company raising prices of concerts at a flat rate to keep up with the cost of inflation.

Dynamic pricing is short-sighted and will hurt the artists, because only rich people and scalpers will be able to afford concerts. In this hellscape of an economy, regular ARMY will have to make hard choices between merch, albums, paid content, premium streaming services, and concerts. The last thing BTS ever needs is to see empty seats during their performances. This decision is motivated by pure greed and in my opinion goes against the ethics BTS writes about. It's not BTS' fault, but the company needs to be held accountable. This is a serious breach of trust between Hybe and the fans that helped build BigHit through pure love, dedication, and hard work.

Furthermore, I will say this with regard to the recent Billboard article in which Bang PD comments on exploring AI artists. I recognize that AI and virtual reality are the future, but absolutely nothing will ever match an authentic, organic, human experience between a real-life artist and a real-life fan. I will never support AI pop content, personally. I have an aversion to such things and you can totally blame the children's fable The Emperor's Nightingale in my case.

I bring this topic up because I'd like to ask that ARMY stop feeding BTS' voices into AI to make cover songs and parody content. Any anti can manufacture one hell of a deep-fake scandal once our boys' voice and likenesses has been completely mapped. Please don't do it, and please politely encourage other ARMYs to not do it, out of respect for the artists' work and reputations.

As individuals, we none of us have much power to wield against a major corporation. As a collective, ARMY is powerful and can actually affect change. But it only works if you work it. Let us use our voices for good. Let us do what we do best: fight for our artists.

3D by JK (feat. JH) - my take.

Ok, unpopular opinion maybe, and I might get my ass beaten for this (not in a good way 🤣)

Feel free to disagree RESPECTFULLY.

Disclaimer: If anyone comes at me with that cancel bullshit I will block you, because we all get to have an opinion.

If my post enrages you, scroll past until you can be civil, then come back and talk. Or block me. I dont mind.

And don't tell me that because I don't love this song I have to hand in my ARMY card... I'm not going to.

🙂💜🙂

I'll start by saying I love JK so, so much. Adore him. Will always support him.

But for me, 3D is a misstep.

My feeling is Hybe should have reconsidered releasing it as it is.

JK's lyrics are fun and sexy. The innuendo is on point. The melody is great and the chorus has excellent sing-along value. Even though I'm not a huge pop music fan, I like the vibe.

The MV dancers are awesome, and I got a kick out of the fire hydrant metaphor.

And in that jacket with nothing under it, JK looks hot enough to melt asphalt.

However....

Including Jack Harlow's rap IMO is a mistake. It sucks, frankly. Not in a good way.

It not only misses the mark on the tone of the rest of the song but his lyrics are really just offensive. Misogynistic. And racial refrences are just... not cricket. It's 2023 not 1995, regardless of what his hairstyle tells you.

His lyrics sound like an incel bragging about their sex life when all they've ever done is watch porn. From his words, I doubt he knows how to please any person but himself.

His message is gross, but its still just... generic. Like he went to urban dictionary for spicy language and then googled how to treat women like shit. There's nothing original about what he's saying. He's not even being gross in an intersting way. It's gross AND boring.

(Jack, if you're reading this, sorry my guy you gotta do better.)

I've been army since 2018 and this is the first BTS song I have tried to find merit in and given up.

I honestly tried to be into it and i just... can't. It doesn't sit well with me.

This is a new experience for me because even when BTS release something i don't immediately love, i still stream and watch and let it sink in, or I work on figuring out what I am missing and why it's ACTUALLY good even if i can't grasp it.

This... it's just... not good, in my opinion.

I have to clarify here...

It isn't about explicit content, i am totally down for that. If anyone read my post on Seven, they will know my response to that song. In a nutshell, I believe all adults who want to, should happily and shamelessly be doing ALL the horizontal tango. Every type, every day, in every way. With anyone and everyone they fancy as long as all parties are informed and consenting adults who are equally enjoying the experience.

Yes. I am all about getting down.

That doesn't mean treating your partners like a body count or using and abusing them with no consideration. That's not cool.

**PSA: please be safe and use protection. Get tested regularly if you have multiple partners. Don't do anything you don't feel good about and dont stay with partners who harm or manipulate you 💜**

Now, back to the smut.

Some criticisms i saw of Seven were about how dirty it was. A few people were upset because JK said fuck, and because he sang about how and when he liked to fuck. But more criticism was levelled at Letto. Why?

It seemed like it was because she's a woman, singing about sex.

Letto totally owns her sexuality and she knows what she wants. I snorted with delight at how deliciously filthy her lyrics were. Some very clever wordplay made her verse so visceral, and pretty shocking to the pearl-clutchers, without her ever saying anything directly. I really enjoyed it.

She was telling us straight up how good she is in bed. Good for her. She totally rocks. And she wasn't disrespecting anyone. She didn't need to do that to make herself cool AF.

The difference between Letto's rap and jack harlow's is that jack sounds like he's just looking at the women he's singing about as a hole to stick his dick in. Women have fought for long enough for equality and respect. They don't need this bullshit. You can sing about getting down, and you can be absolutely filthy and nasty and wild, and you can do it without degrading your partners.

I did read a theory about this song being social commentary on toxic masculinity. You can find it here and you can read it below:

Its not bad as a theory. At least it wouldn't be if Namjoon or Yoongi or Hobi - or Jungkook himself - had written the song. If that were the situation we'd see some inkling of self awareness in the rap, and maybe a hint of character development. But there's none.

Sorry ARMY, this is not the class of lyricism we have come to expect.

If jack is trying to make a social statement^*, or play a character, he is not succeeding in showing any growth or humanity at all. He's really just that stereotype.

In the last few lines, after he offers to fly his victim from Korea to Kentucky, he says "and you ain’t gotta guarantee me nothing I just wanna see if I get lucky."

How considerate...

All I see is zero care factor about the actual person he's trying to get with. Which is quite different from JK's lyrics, which show awareness that he's interacting with a conscious, living human being, not a piece of furniture.

jack follows with "I just wanna meet you in the physical and see if you would touch me"

Ugh. Not with a ten foot pole, douchebag.

And how about, in his first verse "All my ABGs get cute for me"

Good god, really? Is he seriously saying this?

So its a no for me.

The ONLY saving grace is that there's an alternative version which is pretty fun. It's almost as if Hybe knew we would hate the version with jack harlow. Wow, such insight!

Now, i know that's not the only reason they made an alternative. They needed a clean version for US radio play (let's be real, what possible other purpose can this song serve? *°)

But they could have censored jack's... actually they couldn't. The rap verses can't be salvaged. They genuinely have no merit, the only hope for the song is totally removing them.

What does that tell you?

ARMY will no doubt still chart the main track but personally, I would feel morally compromised if i supported that version. So I'll stick to the alternative and hope for better things to come.

------------

^* Stylecaster doesnt think so either. I visited their website to check thr lyrics. They said, of D3, "Meanwhile, Jack Harlow brings the cool with his two verses as he raps about all the women he could pull"

Uh, really? I hope that's intended to be ironic.

*° The MV had only 4.5million views after 12 hours. And we know what brilliant strategists Hybe employs. I am travelling in Korea right now. There was no promo visible here. And it was no accident that it was released at lunchtime on Chuseok - the biggest famiily holiday of the year - when relatively few people in Korea would be available to engage with it. THEY KNEW IT WAS A STINKER.

So apparently I’m missing some Hoseok drama…? In relation to BigHit/Hybe?

Wtf is going on? (Do I want to know?)

Like, I know back in the summer Hybe mistakenly said that BTS is disbanding and then immediately “corrected” it to a hiatus focusing on individual projects. I know Jin is enlisting and made the decision himself after the continued fucking around by the SK Government on whether to wave the requirement for celebs of BTS’s importance to the economy, but what’s going on regarding Hobi?

Who am I fighting? My mental health is dying to hit something lately so just point me in the right direction *cracks knuckles like a badass*

ENGENEs, I SUGGEST TO CHANGE YOUR LOCATION INTO SOUTH KOREA ON X TO MAKE OUR HASHTAG TREND IN KOREA ‼️ THIS WILL HELP TO REACH BELIFT/HYBE.

ENGENES jay is in the hospital AGAIN and will not participate in the Japan tour, and the boys are visibly tired and showing signs of colds according to Sunghoon, colds spread easily between them then quickly everyone will be sick!!! we can't let Enhypen have another comeback, as fans we will do everything we can to prevent this from happening, So today don't comment anything other than requests for Enhypen to rest and for Belift to reschedule the comeback use the #LetEnhypenRest, go to ALL social media and spread the message:

— @BELIFTLAB

How long do you intend to see your artists presenting health and physical problems without giving them a break? This routine of flights, commitments and shows NEEDS appropriate breaks. They are your artists, where is the care? This is inhumanane.

#LetEnhypenRest

@HYBEOFFICIALtwt @BELIFTLAB

We see the excessive overwork & exploitation of ENHYPEN. Their health & well-being are being sacrificed for your benefit, and we won’t stand for it. It’s time to end these inhumane working schedules and give them the rest they need.

#LetEnhypenRest

This comeback is going to be awesome!!! Let's go Seventeen and Carats!!!!!

I feel like we Carats and Seventeen are going through such a tough time right now , so many bad things has happened since even the beginning of the comeback like The8 getting ankle injury, Seventeen's quarantine and now cheol got injured (that too a little serious injury with like inflammation and cuts) . I don't really know how to put out my feelings at this point of time coz in one hand I'm so sad and frustrated about all these series of bad omens and at the same time I'm happy that nothing too extreme has happened and that the boys are still smiling infront of us and fighting till the end just for us to be happy...

I actually didn't really know infront of whom I should rant out my feelings and thoughts which I'm going through at this moment and the fact that they are always say sorry to us even if it's something they can't control just pains my heart even more . At this point I don't even how I should feel but what I do know is that I'll never leave their side no matter what and I know a lot of carats are feeling the same way as I am right now , so this post is meant for my fellow carats to know that we are in this together!🌻
