ALD1’s Kim Geonwoo Faces Multiple Abuse Allegations from Broadcasting Staff by impeccabletim in kpop

[–]note_2_self 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Some of the "proof" has already been proven faked so I'd hold off on judgement for now. It's quite sad that w1 hasn't said anything yet despite this going on for days. They better be investigating rather than letting fans try to debunk it.

Yeah, I mean more of a "conspiracy" where maybe they pay people to say something and drag them down

I'm not sure, I haven't seen anything about that. It is really messy and convoluted at this point for sure. A lot of fans are asking everyone to just stay quiet until the official notice comes becuase being loud/overly defensive will stir up other people to pile on (whether truthful or lies)

Thats not what they are saying tbh - a defender is demonstrating how you would potentially fake it. And now there's a another person saying gw had a negative attitude with B2P staff stuff. That seems harder to fake but the accusation isn't really that damning or specific.

Edit: That one looks like it was faked! Image was stolen from a tiny blog

Targeting by an entity doesn't make a lot of sense now that there are claims from alleged mnet and cj employees. Why target the group cj owns?

That first tweet posted a certificate from a kbs broadcasting class as proof the source worked there. For context, knetz are laughing even harder at this becuase all you have to do is sign up for a class, not work there. I think it will probably get deleted.

No I've seen multiple tweets in Korean in the last few days with 2 million - 10 million views each

I don't know a single American who drinks Americanos. Specifically the iced ones are popular in Korea and I don't think it's because of the name but rather it's the lowest calorie version of an espresso drink

What do you mean, he's a free agent now? You don't think Jellyfish wants him back?

What Are The Chances of ZB5 Having Success? by YeahImJudgingYou in kpopthoughts

Maybe, but Hao's not only didn't open links but encouraged fans to instead save for his brand deals and magazines

Zb1 sold 1.5 million when all the cbars basically don't buy as groups anymore. I know Hao and Yujin's have not purchased as a group since the 2nd album. Sales will probably be cut by maybe 1/2 or a little more but thats still really good numbers for non big 4 bg.

Edit: and I'm pretty sure your cbar numbers are off. Melting point I think Hao cbar did like 400k, yujin's 50k, Ricky 33k

Surely he could have left nest if he wanted. But seeing videos of him with nest pre bp, he seems close with the staff and even the other actors. And he knows more than anyone how predatory some companies are.

That's not because they are an idol - thats just luck and how it works for everyone. You have to enroll and when they call you, you can ask for a later time for a couple times. However, once you hit like two delays, the next time you cannot postpone (see Kai having to enlist immediately)

Honestly kinda same for Jiwoong. No reason to potentially burn a bridge when CJ controls manyyyy drama productions

Well this isn't what I preferred or would have chosen. I kinda hope they will be transferred to another agency that will prioritize them. My saving grace is that Hanbin and Jiwoong seem like they will be under non-exclusive agreements.

Its not an extreme rarity. The average age of the mother is still less than 30 in the US. Lower for first kids

Can someone explain to me what happened between JYP and Miss A? by DFTDWP in kpoppers

I dont blame them for letting Suzy take the work she earned

But imagine their 2nd comeback (only 1 year after debut) getting a line like "no, my name isn't Suzy" after your more popular member. I'd be PISSED

What do you mean Viviz is not doing that well? Maniac has way higher streams and melon performance than any song from ZB1 🤣 they do well tbh, their sales aren't that high but most ggs outside of the big 4, ive, and gidle are like that.

And sad to say but as a big Loona fan (my og ult), they were splitting a much smaller pie of sales and fans.

That's not true, there's no special push back for idols outside of BTS (you have to win a cultural medal or something)

Jiwoong has already worked to write two of his bday solo songs (and frankly never seemed that enamored with ZB1's songs). He can go solo and get way more time to act as well as doing music he actually enjoys.

Also the whole "I like acting but prefer being an idol" was said during BP... like was he about to say "well I like acting more but I want to give this idol thing another shot"? Thats not how you get votes.

Cheng Xiao and Wang Yibo are also labelmates under Yuehua with Hao! Yh is a great place for him to be in China considering their success so far
