The conflict between ARMYs and Big Hit Music never seems to stop. ARMYs always find problems in the way Big Hit Music works and do their best to speak up to at least ensure BTS's interests.
However, most of their objections and criticisms are not immediately resolved, but ARMYs' anger at the company's treatment of the group can be seen. A recent example is the fact that Big Hit Music does not respect Jungkook's artist copyright.
This incident caused ARMYs to trend the hashtag and ask Big Hit Music to change this:
Until now, it is inevitable that fans feel that management companies treat artists unfairly in the Kpop idol world. Of course, most management companies have such negative moves, so it's understandable that fans are worried about the artists' interests.
But even Big Hit Music - a company that is said to always best support artists and especially BTS is not immune to criticism for their work. ARMYs threw their fury at Big Hit Music, claiming that the company was neglecting and even infringing on the interests of some of the members.
Typically, not providing enough bodyguards and managers for RM, j-hope or SUGA during their overseas schedules leads to hazards. Meanwhile, recently there was a case of Jungkook taking advantage of copyright issues while not promoting his projects.
2022 has been a landmark year for BTS' Jungkook and his solo accomplishments, but some fans argue that BTS' agency, BIGHIT MUSIC, doesn't give him the respect he deserves. worth. Especially with the copyright of songs written and performed by him.
Specifically, Jungkook has yet to release a solo album, but he has released several new songs this year. These include the 7FATES: Chakho track “Stay Alive” with BTS Suga, “Left and Right” with American singer Charlie Puth, and most recently “Dreamers” for the 2022 FIFA World Cup.
With over 600 million streams, Spotify crowned Jungkook the most-streamed K-Pop soloist of 2022 before changes were made to the original “Spotify Wrapped” list. This is just one of his many chart achievements this year.
Now, however, some ARMYs claim BIGHIT MUSIC is trying to cash in on Jungkook’s success without contributing to his solo promotions. “Seems like [the] company only remembers Jungkook is their artist when it benefits them,” one fan tweeted.
BIGHIT MUSIC has stamped the agency’s name on Jungkook’s latest song credits, rubbing fans the wrong way. Some are accusing BIGHIT MUSIC of doing “the bare minimum” and exploiting the 25-year-old singer.
Thousands of ARMYs have tweeted “BIGHIT RESPECT JUNGKOOK” to draw attention to the issue:
- Not a single article about “Dreamers” success or JK’s global impact after his performance, not even photo sketch of “Left and Right” or “Dreamers”. Seems like company only remembers Jungkook is their artist when it benefits them.
- Korean and Worldwide Media posting so many articles about Jungkook every day, but HYBE/BigHit can’t even share “Dreamers” achievements like they do to all their artists.
- Why there’s not even article about “Dreamers” success or JK’s global impact after his performance, Not even photo sketch of “Left and Right’ or “Dreamers” I’m hurting into my bones even the company he’s working on they don’t post
- Adding their name in his credits but couldn't even share the mv link nor did the bare minimum for dreamers, like what kind of company is this? Benefiting from jungkook success and popularity for years but never gave him 1% of what he deserves BASTA
- We have been waiting for 2 weeks and the link to the “Dreamers” music video has never been posted! You have posted for your other artists working with different labels before. When will you promote your artist?
- Since there appears to be some confusion: This is about the music video, not the performance video. There are no copyright issues with sharing a link on YouTube or on a IG story. It’s like retweeting on Twitter. BH did not post on YT or IG. Fan channels were able to share it.
- Jk is there for music ! He is breaking records without a solo debut !! But we are not surprise he has the best vocal in kPop industry ! Yes many people can sing very well and very loud but few can touch your heart ! Jk is one of these singers !
- Stop stealing Jungkook’s credits…..
- ???what is this "bighit respect jungkook" and bts the group is leeching out on jungkook"???? Like im so confused...and the" Hybefailedjhope" trending because jhope album not visible radio but RM's is but what I find is too far is when I saw several post saying not support RM and so that means bighit is leaching of RM and suga now
