I’d just like to say that I called it.

I’m being asked about it, so: yes, if you combine Korean “respect your elders at all costs” culture with standard music industry “insert that unfunny Hunter S. Thompson quote we’ve all heard a million times before here” culture, then yes people can get into a situation especially with people came into fame at a young age, where they get continually fucked over and are unaware, especially if they’re making money fine in other places. Mind you, have you actually heard Lee Seung Gi’s dreary music? Perhaps his label were just trying to send him a message.

Isn’t it great how in the wake of the Itaewon tragedy everyone’s very busy looking out for safety at performances… or not.

In the big news this week, Jungkook’s bucket hats are apparently worth 10 million won each on resale. I’m not sure why, I guess maybe they have an inner kevlar layer to protect his head from shrapnel during his upcoming military deployment.
