@GMMTV please check attached open letter regarding the unfair treatment & malicious cyberbullying targeting inter fans after the JanJingjing KapookCiize x Katanyu Tonight recording on July 6. We urge the company to protect our rights and stop the regional discrimination.
@Antonio3Ashley@Janhae@Jingjingyu364@GMMTV Your celebrity is doing a live-stream sales event in China tomorrow, and this incident has already angered numerous Chinese fans. It will severely hurt sales during tomorrow’s live broadcast. Can you take responsibility for the consequences?
@Antonio3Ashley@Janhae@Jingjingyu364@GMMTV Can you explain how these 50 spots were selected? It’s understandable that international fans don’t know about this, but how come some Thai fans are also unaware? Did you reserve all fifty spots for people within your inner circle?
@Antonio3Ashley@Janhae@Jingjingyu364@GMMTV Thais fans only care about Chinese people’s money, don’t you? Merchandise is impossible to get either online or offline—you hoard all of it, resell them to foreigners at inflated prices, and then even call those foreigners sasaeng fans
@Antonio3Ashley@jujulers you are right~This is a public event. If it were a private event, we would not release the address and would cordon off the venue.
This event is organized by the company for all fans, including both Thai fans and international fans. Anyone who meets the requirements and successfully submits the registration form has every right to be on the participant list. So why are some people so against that?
This is not an event exclusively for Thai fans, so there is no reason to expect the participant list to contain only Thai names. If the company does not restrict participation based on nationality or place of residence, then international fans have every right to participate just like everyone else.
If you want an event exclusively for Thai fans, then ask the company to organize a separate event with clear rules from the very beginning. But for an event that is open to all fans, international fans are participating completely within the official rules.
What we find difficult to understand is that many of you are happy to enjoy the benefits that international fans provide—buying merchandise at lower prices, getting cheaper tickets, asking us for help, and so much more. But have you ever treated international fans with the same consideration?
There have been countless times when tickets were resold at extremely high prices, and international fans had no choice but to accept it if they wanted to attend. Yet when international fans resell tickets at similar prices, they are immediately met with complaints, criticism, and personal attacks. That kind of double standard is simply unfair.
If we are all fans of the same artists, then we should respect each other’s rights and respect the rules established by the company, instead of only accepting those rules when they work in our favor.
