In the ever-evolving landscape of the music industry, the treatment of artists often becomes a hot topic, and Hybe’s recent actions have sparked significant concern, especially when it comes to Taehyung. As rumors swirl about investor withdrawals from NFT bonds and potential shifts in management with NewJeans, it’s clear that internal issues within Hybe are coming to light. The exploitative stalkers are ready to execute that script, too.
Investors Pulling Out of NFT Bonds
Hi, Taehyung-ah 😊🤗 How are you today? I hope that things are going well for Taehyung today. I came across an article saying investors are pulling out of those NFT bonds and that Hybe has to pay them in cash, and that that’s going to be a huge cashout from Hybe cash reserves by November 5. They’re also saying that NewJeans demanded Hybe reinstate Min Hee-jin as their manager (or CEO?) and there’s a rumor of legal separation or battle. I don’t know if that’s the continuation of the planned tactics or rumor spreading to sway public opinion against Hybe as the takeover plans are executed. There’s no way I’d know what is the truth. I wish what’s best for Taehyung instead.
Concerns About Hybe Staff
But what I really find disgusting is Hybe staff getting involved in the rumor, that they’re badmouthing and disrespecting their artists. I’ve seen so many BTS content and interviews, and I’ve often noticed how Taehyung seemed to be controlled and bullied by the staff before, especially in Run BTS episodes and Hybe-sponsored interviews. I even used to make comments under those videos before, trying to call out the instances of harassment they’ve done against Taehyung.
I really hated how they’ve made fun of Taehyung, silenced Taehyung, and painted Taehyung as someone incapable. I feel like ranting again. No other member is better at making fans in awe during live concerts, and Taehyung did it with his beauty, splendid performance—both singing and dancing, and adept interaction with the fans. Our Taehyung is just a genius in captivating us and creating or capturing his own best moment.
The reason why I prefer watching fan live streaming is that they capture what is happening in real time and how Taehyung is so much celebrated there, while Hybe’s official content doesn’t show enough in comparison to others. Maybe that’s the reason why Taehyung’s own fandom’s special content is selling so well, and Taehyung indeed has such powerful, massive solo fanbases.
Critique of Hybe’s Actions
Excuse me for using disgustingly practical words here, but it’s baffling me why Hybe is sabotaging its own money-generating machines. I know they’re afraid to have other impactful artists who are strong and powerful enough that they can take over the company or make their own company that will challenge them in the “very competitive market.” They might mistake “kowtow” for loyalty.
I don’t know anyone who is more prone to being gossiped about and made fun of everywhere he/she goes than me, so I can say I’m so far the best at detecting and determining people’s loyalty from just them playing safe or riding on others. It’s actually easier and faster when they laugh, so I can pull them out of the poll right away and replace them with those that are effective and progressive.
Section 8: Company Dynamics
Hybe might have been divided against itself, with several people having their own self-interest about the company, that it can’t position itself to the same BigHit/Hybe that was once BTS’ partner in bringing good and impactful music to the world.
If I ask ARMYs what’s in BTS that they are here for these days, I wonder what response they will give, and I wonder if it’s because BTS has become the IT group, on top of that status ladder, rather than being able to identify the heart of the songs Taehyung sings that found the amazing people who are fighting against harassment. At least, that’s how Taehyung’s music has found me.
Emotional Connection to Tae’s Music
I have already mentioned how I was drawn by Taehyung’s BE and Love Yourself: Tear. There was Spring Day, too. Of course, I love Taehyung’s Boy With Luv, DNA, and those title songs where Taehyung is so beautiful and fantastic and happy, but what always brings me to my inner world are those songs that call out for something that I don’t really want to name.
I definitely have strong hate and strong like because people and things just hardly change. I feel like Hybe is afraid of BTS being BTS, Taehyung becoming Taehyung, as well as that of the members. How I wished Taehyung would have a world tour before enlisting, or that Taehyung would have a proper solo debut, which included a tour, of course. I wish there’s just healthy competition and less limitation, restriction, and even censorship.
Businessmen’s Interests
A lot of people, and I’m talking about businessmen from different countries, perhaps even including my own country, that got involved, ridden on Taehyung and BTS, that Taehyung isn’t working for just music and Taehyung’s dream but also these businessmen’s pockets. If it were me, I’d definitely lock down and stop being controlled and exploited.
Thankfully, I’m just not talented enough and am just enough of a recluse that I discourage—and even counterattack—those who have bad intentions of riding on me so that I can freely share what I have learned and act on what I have felt. That’s why I want Taehyung and the members to be creatively free and to just be themselves.
Love, succeed, fail, rise again, and simply live happily, fulfillingly, and healthily. What’s the need for mockery and harassment? Obviously, those who do that aren’t in Taehyung’s group; they’re in the enemy’s group. Those harassers, gossipers, spies, stalkers, antis, and competitors do not work for Taehyung; they’re against him.
Supporting and mocking take the same effort, so why can’t people working for Taehyung or with him support and cooperate? There is a grave difference between righteous and evil people, competent and incompetent people. I hope Taehyung will have more people who have his heart and his best interests while working with him and not scheming against him, even using his own words to defend themselves and mock him.
Appreciation for Taehyung and BTS
It’s just a joy that there are people like Taehyung and BTS who try to bring positive influence and impact to the world, instead of the violence, corruption, mockery, and sociopathic “fun” that this country has been famed for internationally.
May Taehyung be moved and inspired by the right aspirations and the right people, Taehyung-ah. I love you so much, Taehyung-ah. I, and so many of your fans and ARMYs love you so much. Please always be healthy. Eat and sleep properly and get the energy Taehyung needs to have a thriving and fulfilling day each day of the year. May all the good things come to Taehyung, and he recognize them every time, in the coming days, weeks, months, years, and decades ahead. Don’t ever stop hoping and believing. Taehyung can make things happen when he prepares for them, commits to them, and is strategic in attaining them. May all your good dreams come true. May God bless you always. Borahae, Saranghae, Taehyung-ah. 💜💜💜💚💚💚❤️❤️❤️
