First yall tried to surpass BTS by creating "super groups"
Then tried by partnering with US labels and releasing endless number of Western collabs
Then arranged US warehouses for #1 on BB200 without any HOT100 debuts - Just for BTS-like headlines
Sold their groups to US labels for 1000% payola and support - ended up losing their group fully
Then even arranged Media to burry BTS
LOOK AT THEM NOW
FVCK U ALL
