One of the references in New Jeans' Attention MV

Movie Christiane F. (Released in 1981)

Of course, it's normal to pay homage. However, given Min Heejin's insistence on originality, the way she looks down on imitations as inferior, and her tendency to stick to her own creative vision, it's amusing to see traces of references emerging in this situation.

theqoo

-Min Heejin, what would you call this? Isn't this a copy?

-Tumblr vibes

-All of Min Heejin's work actually originates from Tumblr a few years ago

-You can get inspired from others or use references when you create something. I wonder how can she criticize other people's work so easily?

-The content of the movie, though... She seems to consistently have unique taste...

-Calling out other group for alleged plagiarism, yet she's no different...

-So if she does it, it's an homage. But if others do it, it's a copy of her work and considered as plagiarism?ㅋㅋㅋ

-The content of the movie is quite shocking...

-What's the movie about?

-She's drowning in arrogance... 

-That movie is really creepy...

-How can she dare to accuse others of plagiarism so casually after doing this?ㅋㅋㅋ

-Apart from plagiarism... The content of this movie is too sickening...

The Movie That Seems to Be Used as a Reference for New Jeans' Music Video

 Amidst HYBE's gratitude process towards New Jeans' agency, ADOR, where they discovered an internal document containing evidence of an attempt to take over management rights, ADOR's Vice President A explained the related suspicions.

On the 23rd, A told Yonhap News Agency, "The content of the 'internal document' is my personal concerns, stemming from the longstanding unresolved conflict between HYBE and ADOR." He clarified that the content of the document was based on his personal thoughts and experiences, stating, "It is not a matter discussed with other ADOR executives, including CEO Min Heejin."

He further expressed regret, saying, "I deeply regret that a mere 'memo' level document, which has never been executed, stored only on the company laptop, has been leaked to HYBE, packaged as an 'internal document' for a grand conspiracy, and mentioned in various articles."

theqoo

-HYBE secured a total of 3 documents while securing ADOR's computer assets that day. The documents, written by A, a close aide to Min Heejin, the CEO of ADOR, on the 23rd and 29th of last month, were titled 'Agenda' and included contents such as 'urgent planning,' 'contract modification agreement,' and 'arrangement of potential external investors 1st and 2nd options.' Especially, the document on the 29th of last month caused controversy as it stated under the 'goal' section: 'Ultimately leave HYBE,' 'Prevent interference within HYBE (overall autonomy).'

-Seriously, can't they get their story straight?ㅋㅋㅋㅋ This is so chaotic.

-Then what was that statement they posted yesterday evening?

-Get yourself a diary

-Feels like I've seen this in a movie

-a. Why did the vice president personally write such a memo? b. On the company computer, of all places

-Who would believe that?

-1. They said it was just scribbling because the thoughts and sentences were too juvenile to be taken seriously. 2. But why would they bother leaving it on the company computer? Is it hard to remember otherwise?

-What was he thinking? 'It's my personal opinion and I won't share it with anyone, but I'll just save it on the company computer for now.'??

-Shouldn't such content have never been saved on the company laptop in the first place?

-Yesterday, they said ILLIT was the source of the dispute. And now suddenly it's a long-standing conflict? Get your story straightㅋㅋㅋ

-That's the biggest excuse ever, there's nothing else to say, so they can't even admit itㅋㅋㅋ

-Is he joking?

Thank you for keeping your promise!!☺️

DY: You asked me before if there was something I wished for and I told you I wanted you to film a legendary fancam of me.


Fan: In that moment, the contents of the letter I gave to him before the pandemic crossed my mind (Seriously, it was from at least 4 years ago). I wrote that before I die, I really wanted to see Doyoung singing a song like Baek Yerin's Square on a festival stage, with natural light as the wind hits him...


theqoo

-Wow, he remembered that...?

-Wow, that's amazing. I feel like I would cry if I were that fan.

-And that fan has been a fan of Doyoung since his debut, that's so touching.

-Wow, this is why it's impossible not to stan Doyoung. He looks so beautiful in the fancamㅠㅠ

-This is crazy, remembering a letter from four years ago shows incredible memory.

-The fact that such an idol exists in reality is unbelievable...

-It's so cool to see the trust, loyalty, and love between the singer and the fan displayed so beautifully...

-But seriously, the fancam was very well-shot.

-It's really touching... how can the relationship between fans and singers be like this..ㅠㅠㅠ

-Wow... the video is so beautiful. I want to save it and watch it often because Doyoung's singing is so good.

-It's really, really a beautiful relationship he has with his fansㅠㅠ

-Wow, it's touching, romantic, and full of love, really...

-Doyoung always seems so sincere. I don't know why I didn't realize it sooner

-Doyoung has never not been sincere.

-The fact that Doyoung remembered the letter and even asked about it even when the fan who wrote it forgot about it...

-How can he remember that letter??? It's touching because idols usually don't remember those, right? Even if they read them, there could be tens or hundreds of letters.

HSC: Anton's dad was really handsome. He was a hot fashion leader at that time... He was truly one of my ideal types.







theqoo

-His dad was indeed really popular back thenㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Among middle-aged gay men, there must be some who had Yoonsang as their ideal type.

-That hair color suits Anton really well...

-Anton really looks like a prince... Yoonsang may be in middle age right now, but he was very handsome when he was young. 

-Damn, he's really handsome, his aura is amazing.

-Wow, Anton's face is more surprising than what Hong Seok-cheon said. Why is he so pretty and handsome?

-Anton's vibe is seriously no joke...

-Why is he so good-looking?

-He kinda resembles Taemin in those picturesㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Wow, why is Anton so handsome today..

-It's because his dad is Yoonsang... There was a time when Anton's dad was my ideal type tooㅋㅋㅋ

-If your father is Yoonsang, well... even I...

-Yoonsang was very popular indeed.

Seventeen's Vocal Team Receives Great Response As Soon As They Released the Highlight Medley 'Cheers to Youth'

Honestly, the entire online community and media were trying to crucify LE SSERAFIM to the point I was worried that the members thinking of taking 'extreme choices'. People kept mentioning the ex-member who got swept up in school bully controversy, saying that she should've disciplined Hong Eunchae instead. Some even suggested LE SSERAFIM to be banned from entering the country like they're some criminals. 

While not directly exhibited, there are all sorts of comments beyond criticism on the skills in LE SSERAFIM's videos, ranging from ridicule to personal attacks, assaults, and even threats.

Such extreme comments are not just a few; there are tons of them.

Moreover, not only the members' Instagram accounts but also today's live comments during their arrival are filled with malicious comments.

Is this really acceptable to justify that "If you can't sing, you deserve to be criticized"?


Even international fans agree that the comments LE SSERAFIM has been receiving are crossing the lines. Some of them even start to discourage their own fandoms from bullying LE SSERAFIM excessively. 

I hope people will learn that criticism and /// condemnation, ridicule, and personal attacks are different things.

theqoo

-It's really severe.

-Seriously, even though I agree that they can't sing, the criticism and ridicule have gone too far. This makes me want to support them...

-The hate comments have already crossed the line from the start...

-Sigh... Why are people so angry? They seem to be overly obsessed...

-Those hate commenters are probably going to get sued soon. So stupid. 

-Seriously, it's really too much.

-Exactly

-It's ridiculous how they get more hate for not being able to sing than actual criminals do. I've seen so many hateful comments that I'm just going to support them from now on without saying anything.

-Singers can be bad at singing, why criticize so harshly?

-They weren't good, that's fact, but they didn't deserve all this hate. 

-The mockery is too much... At this point, it's not criticism, it's just hateful comments.

-Even criminals don't get that much hate.

-It's so severe... It's not like they were caught doing drugs or killing someone.

-The constant criticism has been really sickening.

-Honestly, I was scared to take sides because it seemed like I would be attacked, even though I'm not a fan. Before being a singer, they're people,. , The comments were too harsh.

-Seems like they got more hate than criminal offenders.

-People are just mindlessly leaving hate comments... I don't even know what they're angry about. If you don't like the music, just stop listening, right?

Hate Comments Targeting LE SSERAFIM are Crossing the Lines

 On the 14th, Kanagawa Police arrested a Korean on suspicion of breaking into the dressing room of K-Arena Yokohama in Nishi-ku, Yokohama. The person arrested denies the allegations, saying that they were only looking for a lost ticket. 

According to the arrest warrant, she unlawfully entered the dressing room without a valid reason around 10:25 PM on the 14th. On that day, there was a music event at the facility featuring artists from Japan and Korea. After the event ended, a staff spotted a woman wearing a staff T-shirt in the dressing room. Suspicious of her not wearing a staff ID, the staff approached her, but she fled. The woman claims she wasn't a staff member of the event and says that she 'found' the T-shirt. 

theqoo

-Her age and name got exposed, damn...

-Wow... She was already a fansite master when I was a Kpop fan 10 years ago. She still hasn't changed at all. 

-Wow... I used to like the pictures she takes. What's this? Ugh...

-The original article is kind enough to expose her identityㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-That's impressive. People like her should be arrested so that other fans wouldn't do the same. 

-She's 37, for God's sake... Is she currently detained in Japan now?ㅋㅋㅋ

-Wow... That's admirable, but not in a good way.

-She must be really richㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Crazy... She's the one behind Eyes, Nose, Lips??

-She 'found' a staff T-shirt??ㅋㅋㅋㅋ What a mess

-How did she even get the staff T-shirt?

-If she lost her ticket, when should be looking for it in the venue. Why did she look for it in the dressing room? What a nonsense excuse. 

-Looking at her age, it looks like she has been a fan since at least the 2nd Gen, right?

-Going crazy over idols and getting detained in a foreign country...
