"Mina-chan repeatedly said, "Ni-ki didn't do anything wrong." While she acknowledged and reflected on her own actions in America, she also understood that antis were using Ni-ki's words as a weapon to excessively attack her.
+ she said she wanted to support ENHYPEN, who are working hard despite everything they've been through as six members, and that she wanted to help them win another Daesang next time.
Can we PLEASE unite for once? It doesn't matter if u're ot6, ot7 or whatever u wanna be but let's PLEASE protect Ni-Ki. We cannot just sit back and do nothing let's protect him and set the ot7 vs ot6 aside for a while
por favor no dejen de reportar 🙏. la cantidad de posts con difamación y acoso es desmedida.
ya sea denunciando aquí mismo o reportándolos en el portal de hybe (cámbienlo a su idioma de preferencia)

Full translation of #NI_KI’s message on his live last July 30:
To me, concerts exist so that everyone can be happy and have a great time together. I want to see everyone. I want to take care of everyone in the venue. I want to make sure even the ENGENEs in the far corners, who might not be able to see us very well, feel included. I want to look after every single ENGENE.
But sometimes… well, not even sometimes. Wherever we go, there are always a few people who really want us to notice only them.
And they don’t jump. They don’t really enjoy the concert. It doesn’t feel like they’re having fun. Honestly, that kind of lowers the energy a little. You know what I mean?
My heart is in wanting everyone to have fun together and wanting to take care of everyone equally. So when there are people who seem more focused on getting noticed, I can’t help but feel a little disappointed.
There are so many ENGENEs who do an amazing job lifting the atmosphere and making the concert even more enjoyable. But when situations like that happen, it sometimes feels like they take away from the concert experience a little. After all, the whole point is for all of us to be happy together, right?
So if you’ve ever had those thoughts, I understand. I really do. It’s natural for people to want to be noticed. I get that. But all you have to do is enjoy yourself.
Our responsibility is to put on the best performance we can. It’s our job to fill those two hours with energy, dance our hardest, sing our best, and create an unforgettable show. That’s the responsibility we carry.
What feels a little unfortunate is when other ENGENEs end up feeling self-conscious because of other people’s actions. Everyone is already having such a great time, so I just think it would be nice if we could all enjoy it together. You know what I mean, right?
I really do understand. But if you think about it from our perspective, from the perspective of the people on stage…
Like I said, filming is totally fine. I have no problem with that at all.
What we want to see is everyone dancing, jumping, waving their heads, cheering, and enjoying themselves. We want to see ENGENEs being happy. That’s what makes us happy. We don’t want to see people just standing there. Right? That’s how it is.
Other than those few cases, though, everyone has looked so genuinely happy, and I love seeing that. ENGENEs’ happiness is always our top priority.
Especially throughout this South American and North American tour, ENGENEs have looked so happy. Seeing that has made me so happy too. It really warms my heart.
We’ve had everyone come to see us, from really little kids to fans of all ages. I’m so grateful for that.
And actually, we’ve been on tour for over three years now. But being able to go on a world tour like this isn’t something that’s common, or rather, something that should ever be taken for granted, right? So I’m really very grateful for it.
No matter how difficult things get, the fact that we’ve been able to continue a world tour for over three years now is something I’m really thankful for. Oakland was also a place we last visited during FATE PLUS. So when I think about that, it means we’re coming back after two and a half years.
And knowing that you waited for us for those two and a half years… you probably could only see us through screens during that time. Thinking about that actually made me feel really sorry. If it were up to me, I’d want to stay in the same space with you all and keep you in my eyes for as long as possible. But since that’s realistically impossible, I’m approaching these concerts with the mindset that we should cherish and remember these moments well while we’re here.
So, ENGENEs, thank you so so much. I really love you so much.
here is a template on writing the report to HYBE, about the threats a japanese infulencer - Makun, has made towards NI-KI and his family.
i made a thread of the title/contents text, and all of the screenshots/links you can send as evidence.
three days ago y’all were praising ni-ki for the bravery of his words, now y’all are using those same words against him.
y’all beg the members to speak up about every situation, but when they do, you use their words rather to fit a narrative, or to use it against them.
the situation is delicate enough and all y’all being doing is a mass call for more hate, more harassment, more mess. it takes absolutely nothing to show a little bit of respect towards a soul that has just passed.
would any idol wanna see this at their concert? bffr
EVERY group has said these words to their fans, i dont wanna mention names but many groups did.
BTW this is what he said.
he wanted everyone to have fun together not stare at them blankly without even giving them a smile.
NI-KI did the live after the 2nd show in Oakland on july 30
and the flower incident happened in the Tacoma concert on 26 july
You guys really like to twist his words and fit your own narrative, you guys are so desparate to hate on him for no reason
i’m sorry but… an idol going live to address a pattern of behavior from the fandom should never be twisted into them targeting one specific person. he had every right to speak up and confront that behavior. at the end of the day, it was directed at everyone who does it, not one individual. people took a general message and ran with it in the worst way possible.
"What else was it again? About those suspicious harassment incidents. I heard Ni-Ki mentioned them during that Weverse Live. I don't think he specifically identified me. But it feels like people probably want to make me out to be the culprit."
Regarding this circulating video from the live, here's a rough translation (starting from the 4-second mark):
"I was told that NI-KI mentioned something on his Weverse Live. But he probably wasn't pointing fingers at me specifically. It’s just that they want it to be me. They want to make me the culprit."
