[theqoo] HYBE WHO ARE LOWERING THEIR HEADS, BTS JIN'S 'HUG EVENT' CHANGE... "NO MORE REQUIREMENT FOR ALBUM PURCHASE"

(...)

Addressing these concerns, BIGHIT Music apologized for the initial unclear guidelines and their failure to consider detailed criteria in advance. They promised to revise the rules to include both those who applied after the announcement and those who had previously purchased albums.

"We apologize for the previous unclear notice and our failure to set detailed application criteria in advance. We will revise the criteria to include both those who purchased after the offline event notice was posted on the Weverse Shop detail page and those who had previously purchased albums from the Weverse Shop. We will carefully discuss and announce the detailed plan as soon as possible.

We will do our best putting the event together so that Jin’s heartfelt sentiments can be conveyed to the fans. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused and ask for your continued support and interest in Jin’s offline event on June 13."

1. Will he even be able to hug 1,000 people?...

2. Even hugging 100 people is tiring.. they should cut it down

3. I get that some people might have already bought the new album and there might be new fans, but if they're changing it to one entry per person and offering refunds to those who want them, they should follow through on that.

4. Usually, fansigns involve buying albums, right? It feels like they're using the current situation with Min Heejin as an excuse here. Both the artist and the fans seem to enjoy it, so why are they going to that extent...

5. Hug eventㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ seriously HYBE, this is so lameㅋㅋㅋㅋ

6. Even for a group as big as Bangtan, they're still using the fansign strategy to boost album sales by encouraging bulk purchases to increase the chances of winning. HYBE is really gross for this, I won't be entering.

7. I can't understand how an artist at Bangtan's level is doing something like a hug event with 1,000 people...

8. Stop doing this kind of cheap stuff. They are gonna make all their hoobae groups do the same later

9. They are still gonna make fans lineup? Don't you dare start selling them for skinship... Why are you making him do some Japanese basement idol thing...

10. No but just the fact that he's gonna hug 1,000 people is oba
