[theqoo] THE BOYNEXTDOOR'S GALAXY SITUATION HAVE TRIGGERED THE FANDOM AND MEDIA (FT. SAMSUNG'S RESPONSE)

BOYNEXTDOOR used to be models for Galaxy and fan accounts kept posting about this issue since they became models

"I cried because I missed it so much when looking through my gallery...

BND <3 iPhone

I have hope that they'll meet again"

"Ah seriously, I feel f*cking refreshed

#People, BND and iPhone will be together forever"

"But until when will BND be using Galaxy?

Did they sign a lifetime contract? This is seriously nonesense"

"BND are using iPhones

What they are doing with Samsung isn't my business"

"A few members of BND have started using iPhones again

I'm so happy. They posted selcas, ah I'm happy"

"Now, the iPhone belongs to Kim Woonhak

More than half of BND users have iPhones 

I hope your phone is an iPhone too."

"BND <3 iPhone"

It's my first time seeing fans who hate their idols becoming CF models this much;;;

When this situation eventually arose, fans who had excessively praised the iPhone felt that their kids were being unfairly criticized and were trying to hold back. They are trying all sorts of mental gymnastics.

Normal fans looking at this pointed out that this situation resulted from the brainless praise for the iPhone.

"But the most incompetent here are ONEDOORs. Whether it was a sponsorship or advertisement, BND had already visited Samsung's pop-up, so it would make sense to wait until the collaboration was over. However, ONEDOORs, completely unaware of the situation, even had big accounts joining in to say things like, 'Stop using Galaxy and come back to Apple; I want to see iPhone selfies.' I’ve never seen a fandom overreact to that extent."


"Damn, ONEDOORs were the ones who originally said, ‘Now only OO is left!’ every time one of the members switched to an iPhone. They wanted to show off their phones after seeing ONEDOORs’ reactions, which led to this situation."

"Yeah, I was wondering why they kept talking about iPhones since they started appearing in the trending hashtags. I don’t really care whether it’s a Galaxy or an iPhone; I liked the Galaxy version as well. Everyone should just chill out..."

Just to clarify, I'm not trying to shield BND

When fans act like this, even singers who are getting paid need to manage their fans and promote the Galaxy more. The fact that the singer is going along with it to the point of crossing the line is pretty telling...

Also, I think the endless Galaxy hate memes coming from some teens in their 10s and early 20s are really severe.

1. That's just their level. Like singers like fans

2. Not even surprised. Their fandom has always been like thatㅎ

3. People kept saying that they have a lot young fans so I looked them up and most of their fans are in their 20's so stop blaming the fact that they are "kids"

"BND's fandom isn't that young"

4. These fans, damn...ㅋㅋㅋ... they are basically saying "our biases have no impact! Even if you want our bias to carry your goods, we won't buy them even as fans!!!!" 

5. Wow their levelㅋㅋㅋ I hope they don't get any advertisement going forward!!!!!!! That's their karma

6. Unlikeable

7. I'm seriously an iPhone user, and I just don't get them… But why does it feel like they are trying to project themselves into Galaxy or somethingㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ I'm actually using an iPhone 12 mini but I don't have any self-interest in Galaxy or whatnot

8. I bet that their company scolded them harshly

9. Sigh... what do they take iPhones for?

10. To be honest, it's my first time seeing their faces so they should be thankful they even have a CF. They are just the worst...

[theqoo] SAMSUNG ELECTRONICS CLAIM THEY WERE DISPLEASED WITH  BOYNEXTDOOR'S ATTITUDE

"This is too severe" Mercilessly takes photo with iPhones the moment the contract ended... Samsung "boiling"

"It has been reported that Samsung is quite displeased. They even sent a coffee truck to BOYNEXTDOOR with the message, 'Galaxy supports the bright future of BOYNEXTDOOR, shining like the stars in the night sky."

1. This was rude and mannerless

2. Nobody would've said anything if they just quietly used their iPhones 

3. Seeing that, it seems like not only a Samsung problem but also other advertisers would be hesitant. Unless there's a clause in the contract explicitly prohibiting that kind of behavior... It’s surprising that with so many members, no one stepped in to stop it

4. Honestly I bet even Samsung didn't expect them to act all the way like that. Do they have a single song that hit big? They don't know how to be grateful 

5. I didn't even know they were sponsored by Samsung.. I really hope that the advertisers think through next time. They shouldn't be using kids like them 

6. I bet not only Samsung, but other companies would hate working with them 

7. Even nobodies like them have no more principles

8. I don't even know who they are, but now I know them for being fools 

9. Are they dumb?

10. ㅋㅋ Are they insane? 

[theqoo] BOYNEXTDOOR WHO GOT PUSHED BY SAMSUNG MORE THAN YOU THINK

BOYNEXTDOOR and 100 BOYNEXTDOOR fans were invited to the launch party at the Galaxy S23FE launch show

"The launch party should be for Samsung fans, not for idol fans no?"

If you watch the video, even Samsung fans were complaining that this wasn't a launching show but an idol fanmeeting 

"Maison Margiela and the creatively innovative technology of the Galaxy Z Flip 5 have come together to launch their second edition. Featuring trompe-l'œil for visual delight, a leather case that showcases the artisan's touch, and paint drops embodying experimental and rebellious spirit. In that moment where art, fashion, and high-tech converge, the charming boy group ‘BOYNEXTDOOR’—Yunhak, Ihan, and Seongho—joined in"

Vogue made a coverage on the Galxy Flip x Maison Margiela with them

In April this year, they even sent churros and a coffee truck 

Samsung C&T has opened a photo zone for BOYNEXTDOOR at their new clothing brand's Seongsu pop-up.

The photo zone is designed with the concept that when you open the door, a member appears, fitting the group name.

This isn’t just a simple smartphone sponsorship; they’ve gone above and beyond with support for the launch show, brand photoshoots, a coffee truck, and a photo zone, showing careful attention to detail

"Taesan liked your comment "Taesan-nim, you're really using iPhone??"

Tweet" Taesan nim is officially using an iPhone 

"BND are all using iPhones now...!!!

Sungho - iPhone 16 Pro desert gold titanium 

Jaehyun - iPhone 16 Pro natural titanium 

Riwoo - iPhone 16 Ppink 

Taesan - iPhone 16 ultra marine 

Leehan - iPhone 16 Pro black titanium 

Woonhak - iPhone 16 Pro white titanium

It's so cute that they're not overlapping.."

2. Wow seriously they have no morals 

3. The principles seriously ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Is it because they're too young so they're thoughtless?

4. They just seem like childish kids ㅠㅜㅜㅜ Their image totally sucks now 

5. How can nobodies allow themselves to do that; 

6. This isn't just an issue about them swapping phones, why are they like that?

7. No but, I saw them in the HOT category and didn't think much of it, but I clicked in the article nonetheless and really, they don't seem to have morals

8. This is my first time hearing about this group thanks to this event. And I realized that they're from HYBE ㅋ now I totally get it 

9. Wow they're f*cking nobodies but they were treated f*cking well. Is Samsung insane?
