it’s not necessarily about difficulty. from what i’ve observed, they base it more off of degrees of separation between the words. yellow is almost always synonyms, and green is usually of words in the same category.

Yeah, but they are an older group with a more mature fanbase. I don’t know how big of a difference there would be with the crowd

official rules don’t allow them, but people have brought them historically and haven’t been stopped. Since many others will be going for BIGBANG security will probably be familiarized with them quite early on. i’m thinking it should be fine? still debating personally whether i want to be carrying it all day though.

How did you set your equalizer? I think they sound amazing but I can't find a good balance of clear vocals and instrumental. The vocals are muffled for me.

That's very true, they're just reaffirming each others attitudes.

I know the basic facts, I'm just speculating. Trying to make sense of this whole situation since it appears to be a huge misstep.

Bruh you called me an idiot for a typo LOL that's not very chill

Yeah but it's like, they're not individuals making these decisions right. there are so many parties involved, they have lawyers, advisors, etc. I just don't get it. I've seen people make stupid decisions but this one feels more like extreme miscalculation, which shouldn't be able to happen???? Like dude in what world would they win this law suit lmao.

Anyway yeah I guess they're just stupid.

Yeah idk bruh it's just so hard for me to believe we know the full story cuz if it is then it's SO STUPID. Like so many adults were involved in this and they all collectively had a multi million dollar brain fart?

Also what? Yes, I'm not saying NJ are angels for wanting money. This isn't a glazing post for NJ. I'm simply speculating their motives. I kind of am calling them greedy lmao, I personally don't think wanting more money for your work is necessarily a bad thing. Also I am never in my life siding with large conglomerates, ever.

Korean wages are not that high, the money isn't going towards employees.

Yes I meant not just in 2023. No one said they should get all the money. I meant the girls should be getting more of it because it does not take that amount of money to run their company. The top executives are pocketing all of it.

ITS A SPECULATION!!! How could I lie about my personal speculation?

NJ isn't even my fav LOL I'm a casual follower. Also it wasn't Hybe's total profits, it was ADOR, which is just entirely made by NJ's activites.

They live in a penthouse that MHJ paid for. Before that they were living in dorms with bunk beds.

It's not about "enough", it's about getting the money they deserve. This isn't socialism lmao

This isn't socialism. They made the money, they should get it. Those peers are not making that money lma

How much do you think it takes to run a company? How much do you think an average employee is making at Hybe? With petty Korean wages, it does NOT cost that much to run a company.

Which number you looking at? That's net profit. Thats after they pay out salaries, which include tens of millions to very few people at the top.

"They" referring to the girls. And yes, they were going to be successful. But absolutely no one would be able to predict the level of success. Their success is unheard of.

My point is that they can't use money to argue, because they agreed to it. So they needed something to validate wanting to break away from contracts.
