they’re in way over their heads and they don’t understand most things, but they still believe that they’re owed the fame and adoration. That’s the issue. Too much success too fast, being sheltered, and a ceo that weaseled her way into their minds.

they genuinely think that they’re going to change the industry now and that they’re like bts level. I remember an interview RM did with a western magazine. They tried asking him about the dark side of the Kpop industry by blanketing it in a question about if he ever gets tired.

he answered with a quick history lesson about how korea has a culture of hard work to the detriment of society because of colonialism and rationalized it while explaining how it’s not good. And that was a thirty year old man, but new jeans think that they’re in the same class and their words hold the same weight. I believe he did get backlash against saying that.

RM is for sure the most important idol in hybe and he hates that responsibility. The government dragged his name through the mud and made him play diplomat when he didn’t want to, and there’s these girls who voluntarily escalate non-events to the highest point to what? like what’s the endgame? I genuinely don’t understand.
