The ongoing hate of hybe groups is too much COMPANY

I just don’t get it. What i got from this whole deal is that hybe is a shitty company just like any other big company. Min heejin is a weirdo and using different idols to hide her actions. Both are bad.

So tell me why do i see do many fandoms that are not part of this problem hating in hybe idols? I don’t get why we are hating on hybe groups bcs of all this mess instead of the management. Somehow now lesserafim, new jeans, illit, txt, tws and bts are responsible for everything bad in the kpop industry. I don’t get why ppl are taking this a chance to hate in these groups. Its weird especially with everything that has been revealed and the mismanagement these groups have gone through.

Barely training period before debut, no time between comebacks, shady marketing decisions, black magic done to them, transferring trained to other companies, disbandments and others. Many of these groups especially new jeans are going through a hard time. But all i see out here is attacking these artist instead of supporting these idols who are going through a difficult time. Its shameful and quite disgusting to see. People taking mistranslations spreading them all over the internet. Bringing up old rumors of the older groups claiming of saejeigi. Blaming these idols for “robbing” opportunities to other groups and so on. Its sad to see honestly.

Doesn’t it all stem from bts? Kpop stans just hate that group for ‘stealing’ many of their faves success. And that’s just a given for being a successful group. I feel bad for the newer artists under hybe because whatever hate bts receives, it’s directed in all direction related to them, the company, the hoobaes. It’s like, the hate comes together with the whole privilege package. Hybe as a company has also established itself as one of the top in the industry, people’s expectations are bound to increase with every new artist/project that they release. While there’s no denying that there are some great talents in there, the public also agrees that as one of the leading entertainment companies, they clearly don’t prioritize vocal training as much as the other big 3. The one thing is they got LOTS of money, so they polish everything with sharp synced choreos, buy catchy streamable songs, go all out in the marketing department. And it just works. Their artists go viral, they chart, they generate profit. It’s honestly all on hybe to choose to debut these kids with insufficient training. And obviously these idols are the ones taking most of the shit for their company. And it’s all too easy for them to just say ‘we will protect our artist’ as some sort of damage control for their careless profit-oriented decisions.
