The thing is, I can understand that other group’s PR manager. I would have looked at that balcony, looked at the crowd, looked at the footage from BTS’ May visit, and said “Abso-fucking-lutely NOT. Get back in the blackout tinted cars! We’re gonna say you were never here.”
This isn’t even me being petty. This is basic reputation management. Sometimes the best thing you can do for your artists is recognise when a particular visual is going to do them absolutely no favours and keep them the fuck away from it.
You do not voluntarily recreate a moment where the comparison with BTS is going to be this PAINFULLY and frankly EMBARRASSINGLY obvious. That is not setting your artists up for success. That is setting them up to become a meme.
SKZ was confirmed to attend—that’s why she announced it. Then they got embarrassed and suddenly didn’t show up 😭 Everyone already knew SKZ was coming, Then y’all only “confirmed” it AFTER the president arrived 😭 By that time, people had already shown up and that was the crowd
"my fav didn't even attend that's why there's no crowd even when there was a 2 week advance notice" this is armys just randomly gathering over a bts hyundai ad in the old age of 2019 we're not the same
هكذا كان الفرق بين استقبال BTS وStray Kids في القصر الرئاسي المكسيكي؛ فمع قلة الجماهير ووضوح الإحراج، لم يطل أعضاء Stray Kids الوقوف في الشرفة، بل خرج نصف الأعضاء فقط برفقة الرئيسة المكسيكية
🚨 Stray Kids sparks reactions after reports showed that the crowd consisted of only a small number of fans and people gathered outside Mexico City’s National Palace, resulting in an extremely small crowd.
—This is considered another embarrassing moment for the group.
Jikookers planning to harm 🐯 during their tour in Latin America. An online threat is still a threat, especially when it involves explicit references to someone’s d**th and a countdown. These statements are extremely alarming and should not be dismissed simply because they were made online. Don’t take DTs lightly.

Threats of repeatative physical harm should never be normalized or dismissed. We urge @BIGHIT_MUSIC and @HYBEOFFICIALtwt to monitor these threats, investigate the accounts responsible, and take appropriate legal action to protect Taehyung.
The “HH = hate symbol” claim is misleading. In this case, HH simply refers to “Human Hope,” as shown by the name of the collection and the product itself. There is no basis for taking two letters out of context and assigning them an unrelated meaning
