In Min Hee Jin's own words, bunnies are "brainless". They cherrypicked parts of the video out of context to support Min Hee Jin, the woman who manipulates them because she truly thinks they are brainless, and they do prove her right all the time.
I never liked MHJ but what Illit did is really stupid. That video backfired. Belift Ceo claimed New jeans copied Nmixx when in fact new jeans were the one who first released the mv. Also he sexualised the new jeans members . He could have just stick to the part where New Jeans is not an original idea like MHJ claimed and justify belift . But nope he acted really stupid. Poor Illit will be more affected by this issue. All these ceos are using the idols as sheilds to claim their innocence..
The mere fact that you mentioned ILLIT instead of BELIFT means you are looking at it at the wrong way. 2nd you were looking at posts of people who are setting up belift and mistranslated and mis contextualized the video. 3rd of all the points in the video, you mentioned one thing which is taken the wrong context. I suggest, ask for clarification before forming an opinion
I am amazed at NJ fans' lack of viewing comprehension in their wild takes on Belift's video. But no one could ever convince me Illit is a copy of NJ, because I LIKE Illit and I have tried NJ so many times and they don't have more than one or two songs I don't just turn off barely any in. They don't sound or look alike to me at all.
@@WaitingForTheHook so obvs. you're not actually replying in good faith, but I am curious which part of my comment you're skeptical about: that one is to my taste and not the other (indicating their differences outweigh any similarities of being in the same subgenre to me) or that there are some wild takes on the belift video? I mean, the one that prompted my comment was that Belift threw Illit under the bus, which I think most people can see Belift was trying to defend Illit, regardless of how well they actually did. I've been a fan of pop basically since I first got into music. A lot of stuff in the same subgenres may strike a non-genre fan as similar. And yet, the actual fanbases diverge because there are a lot of differences from one artist to another, even in the same subgenre. It's a thing. It happens. One person says they're all the same, and someone else wonders in what universe?
Fascinating. I am Welsh born and years ago the Welsh also used the patronymic system, so it would be Thomas son of Evan etc. This started to change in the 16-18th century and by the 19th century surnames were used so Thomas son of Evan became Thomas Evan’s! The most common Welsh name Jones was derived from son of John! This is the reason that the Welsh have very few surnames.
In Ethiopia we don't have family names. If my name is Amy and my father's name is John then I'd write it as Amy John. Women wouldn't change their names when getting married either.
From NE India here. In my state, we too don’t have surnames per se but we have clans/tribe names which people can put on their official papers or choose not to. So in my passport, my name is my first name and i use my last name as a surname even tho it is exclusive to me and is different from either my dad or mom. (technically it still is just my name) Also, I’m of Mongolian descent btw. The history is super long but the reason we ended up as part of India is because the British included us in the map.
Not a grandma but still old at 52 here. I never expected to become a hardcore fan but here I am years later, standing strong in my devotion to this beautiful group of 7. BTS aren't defined by or held back by the kpop label. They truly are 7 individually talented artists that formed a mega group and created magic. I truly believe they have something special that sets them apart from others. They're the perfect combination of so many important traits: talent, personality, intelligence, dedication, perseverance and heart. I genuinely fell in love with these wonderful men and it's for life. They have become an extended family and family takes care of each other through thick and thin. They never take their fans for granted and this "hiatus" proved it. We've been busier than ever lol. 2025 will remind the world that BTS and Army are here to stay. No other group has held my devotion like BTS has, and I will love them til my dying day. APOBANGPO BORAHAE 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
I'm not a Mangolian but We don't use surname/last name. We use our father name's first letter as an initial or father's name as lastname like Jane M or Jane mark I'm from Tamilnadu, India
She is a pathetic excuse for a woman pathos as you said. But i think more of etchos it means all she is saying are lies or nonsence. She is only seeking attention
This song keeps your cool despite the traffic and frustrating heat and standstill in EDSA.....it also echoes calls to stop road rage...its a cool cute...fun song!...yaah..jus think of your love ones waiting for you...keep your cool on the road and focus on getting where you want to go....one can still have fun despite frustrating things along the way....nice song Pablo!!!❤❤❤
Love Illits fashion style, which is the blending of the super (fantastical theme) and the real(casual). This style stops your look from being too theme-y or gimmiky. NJ’s style is…well… they look like mean girls, because wearing everything in the one style is too gimicky, which btw, goes to prove the wisdom of Illits stylists. In fact, I wouldn’t be surprised if Illits combination will be copied, albeit using unique styles, it opens the field to an amazing future style-wise.
i hate shipping so much i wish people would stop lying about Bts dating all because they show affection too each other it does not mean they they are gay. they lie saying Jungkook and Jin are gay because of this reason they actually believe it they do it with all members. showing affection is what many kpop idols do. it’s natural i wish hybe would put an end to shipping culture i fine it disrespectfuland it can make them them uncomfortable.
The rabbit fandom is turning out to be just as awful as Blonks at this point too - so immature and unable to speak with facts but only criticise the way that man looks in the video or the fact that the video used fan clips. If rumours of NJ members entering the drama themselves is true, then I say let them leave. They profited off Hybe, can't be retracted sadly but cut the losses imo.
Thank you for explaining all this, i tried to watch the video after it got so much backlash and so many comments ridiculing the label - but I can't because it was not translated at that time. Thanks for the video. I don't understand why there is so much hate towards the other girl groups in Hybe, like every small thing is blown out of proportion.
there are a finite number of dance moves, if you copied a dance step by step with the same music without approval you MIGHT get into trouble. The more I listen to Min, the more I am coming to believe she suffers from delusions of grandeur. If people at that company have to have dealings with her, I would save and CC everyone with every note she sends to HR, just to cover my ass. For me, the most important part of this is that Hybe and Big Hit have turned investigation over to police, not sure if that good or bad however considering it's BTS involved now, I think it has a good chance of being legally looked into .
I just watched Jin saying goodbye at the camp. So touching. They all love him. I appreciated the fact that he allowed us to see this when he didn't have to. Thank you for this video. I believe you wouldve made an excellent professor at university. You are well read and studied. However I think all your knowledge aside you would make a great interpersonal studies (prob the most overlooked skill, but I would argue, the most important in business and communications) teacher.
45 Yr old mum here, also 100% ARMY 💜♾️ BTS has paved the way completely. Even though they aren't 1st generation, they are the ones who have shown how it should be done. That is why they have ARMY and why they will ALWAYS have ARMY 💜♾️
There is a lot of misinformation about what BE LIFT said in the video as well as how Engenes felt about BE LIFT suing MHJ and Ador. On real SM that is from real Engenes what they are focused on is Enhypen's concert tour, Jay's collaboration with Japanese rock band Glay and the July comeback.They could care less about this MHJ and New Jeans drama. There are times as an Engene I have complained about BE LIFT because they tend not to fight back when their artists are under attack. This is true of many Engenes who have complained about airport safety and hateful social media posts. This time around I am glad that BE LIFT is finally fighting back. MHJ and Bunnies are in for a shock when their hateful world comes back to haunt them. What international magazine or brand will want to connect themselves to the negative energy they are spreading. I am mad that they are trying to drag Enhypen and my Fandom into their mess. It’s sad but right now I am tired of New Jeans, their fandom and their “mother” MHJ. I am going to check out Illit. They sound interesting but as for New Jeans I am done with them
Facts over Fiction.. The TRUTH will prevail in the end. Anyone with any common sense should be able to see through all of the manipulative dishonest maneuvers. Glad BE-LIFT defended the girls... Didn't even know who they were until all this messed started. Anyway, I love ILLIT's song 'Magnetic'. It truly takes me back to my youth... Singing "Bae, bae, bae, bae, bae, bae, bae, bae, bae Dash-da-da, dash-da-da, dash-da, like it's magnetic" 🥰 "they are too cute"
Min Hee Jin damages all the women who come after her. Not only is she disloyal, manipulative and unprofessional. The way she plays the victim feeds into the worst kind of negative stereotyping.
It seems to me that BELIFT made good points and explanations, so why are NJ fans hating on the video so much? Are they really this dense or are they just blinded by MHJ's press con emotions?
If you want their interpretation read the corresponding Koreaboo articles. I didn't bother but did wonder what was going on. They sound bad. From what is going on I think they are very much taken out of context. People twist the context to fit their narrative even when it says the exact opposite. What I think is "netizens" (maybe; could be paid writers) hate as soon as someone (from HYBE excluding ADOR) breathes. They don't want to accept that they are being tricked. That would mean THEY were wrong and that is hard to accept. We are talking about emotion not logic.
Some of the allegations BELIFT made according to Koreans were altered to their narratives, which was why most koreans were against BELIFT. For example, editing the hanbok photos to make them look like official photoshoots, claiming NJs copied NMIXX dance when the song was released after NJ's song and tennis outfits concept from blackpink was copied by NJ when blackpink's creative director at that time denied and said it was completely different
@@ruthfischer7615perhaps you should do some research first before you comment. All these can be found on BELIFT's video and the korean comments, and on news articles. All the examples I have listed were valid discussions pointed out.
Who does she think she’s kidding?! She took/copied NJ’s aesthetic from the 90s western girl groups, generations 1, 2 and even 3 (Twice), as well as a Mexican gg group - with almost identical group names. AND they’ve got 2 songs that are clearly plagiarized. Please get that mentally unhinged woman out of Hybe/Ador asap!
Why is it so difficult for folk to understand that BTS live a stones throw from a country whose 'SUPREME LEADER" has a mindset to destroy their neighbours on a whim. It's not rocker science 🚀
At first I thought BeLift video was a PR mistake. But now I realize, the trolling comments made their case for them. The case that is defamation under Korean law.
To me ever since the first day that she was hired, I had a bad feeling and have never trusted her. With all due respect to her, she is totallty "SHAMELESS".
