#what i noticed is that those fans want tm to be included in kpop ™ convos but they dont want him to expand his artistry and become even

I'm glad someone brought it up because again, you can think what CEO j*ng did was unprofessional, but he absolutely did not start any type of hate campaign against taemin. I remember seeing someone on Twitter say it was mostly his Korean fans doing that and they got dragged to high heaven. But it was true? They've been starting it since he left sm and it has been progressively getting worse with them complaining about not getting content or them complaining about not getting gifts to that evil bubble message that I'm sure wasn't the only one he got. It just blows my mind that they'll blame everybody (and by everybody I mean SHINee and everyone associated with them) but the people actually doing it.

it's crazy because, for some reason, they didn't want tm to leave esem even though that agency managed his solo activities the way they did. i dont blame them for being anxious at the start because bpm is a small agency, and yk the whole Ren spotify thing + the ceo being... yeah, but honestly, every complaint they have against bpm could easily apply to esem too lolololololol like mentioning how some of the bpm managers had broken the law and then turning around to say you miss that old fart lee sooman who was yk spending sm groups money on new houses and used to be a wanted criminal lol OKAY!👌🏾 they're kinda obsessed with that agency's (fake) prestige, and they think that esem's brand protected him from criticism, and yk, there's also that general stuff they do to preserve an artist ~image~ so you'll never witness an artist fucking up and they kinda enjoyed it bcs that way they could treat tm as some doll

(luckily it didn't happen!) like remember, they were gonna send trucks demanding focus on group stuff, which blink blink why isn't esem being included in that scolding since yk they're the ones managing the group cbs? (+ tm is literally the last person to accuse of ignoring group schedules/group stuff in general like he didn't spend 3 entire enlistments doing wtv to keep shinee's brand alive lol) also the way the noze thing got bigger recently only because these ppl are using against him bcs 'since he left esem he isn't interested in his fans' etc etc

honestly, there isn't a perfect agency, and bpm sucks just like esem sucks and even griffinent has their problems, so going into some crypto typing war for these agencies isn't worth it BUT! esem was going to kill off tm's legacy just to not make him surpass them in terms of yk
