Supporting B.A.P during their ‘Honeymoon’ comeback!
I’ve thrown together a sort of checklist for people wanting to support B.A.P during this comeback, but who aren’t familiar with the process. Let’s show B.A.P we appreciate them and their music, and hopefully help them gain music show wins and the sales and success they deserve. Please do from these what you can!
THIS IS SO IMPORTANT, PLEASE! USUALLY LIKE 50-60% OF WHERE POINTS TO WIN ON MUSIC SHOWS COMES FROM!
MelOn streaming: download the MelOn app, buy a streaming pass (or win coupons), and stream! Queue up B.A.P’s recent songs (eg Rewind, All The Way Up, Wake Me Up, etc) between Honeymoon, so that Honeymoon plays ~6 times an hour with other songs in between. Delete the queue/playlist, delete B.A.P from the search history, then search again and repeat, every hour. If you have a coupon, just play Honeymoon once an hour. (Google for tutorials!)
Genie streaming: download the app, use Kakaotalk to get free streams (Google this for tutorials, I’ve never done this before)
Naver streaming: download the app. They give away free streaming passes at a certain time, so you can try that. (Google this for tutorials)
Bugs, Mnet, Soribada etc streaming: I don’t know much about these either, so Google is your friend
[note] the apps probably won’t be available in your country on the app/play store, so you’ll have to google it and download it from an external source
Tutorials / links. Follow @Vote4BAP, @RICEjuseyo and @BAP_intl on Twitter for updates, reminders and more tutorials
Youtube streaming: stream the Honeymoon mv on TSENT08’s channel, because the views here are counted by all the music shows, while not all shows count the views on the 1theK channel. [tutorial]
Youtube streaming cont.: For the videos in between the mv, you can stream their recent live performances on music shows (from the official channels!) as this also gains them points towards winning
Naver streaming: I’m not too sure if Naver is as strict as Youtube is with counting views, but you can apply similar streaming techniques to Naver to play it safe. Here is the link to the mv, and you can stream their live performances in between too. Be careful though, because Naver will autoplay the next video, which you don’t want.
Buy the album!!! There’s two versions: take your pick, or go for both if you can afford to!
Show Champion: download the Idol Champ App (Google it, you’ll need the most recent version). You can vote three times a day with each account, so make sure you do it before 12AM KST! You can use Facebook, Google+ and Kakaotalk to log in, or an MBC ID, but you can only use your votes once per device.
M Countdown: Pre-vote here. You can use Facebook, Twitter, and Kakaotalk, or your email/CJ ONE ID. As far as I can remember, you can make and use multiple IDs, so please make as many accounts as you can to vote! Save a document of your IDs and passwords (I’ll try this for the first time too this comeback)
Share the mv and live performances with your friends, hype the boys up!!! Be active in the fandom: make content (and reblog/retweet the works of others - please be respectful and don’t repost), talk to other fans, get B.A.P to trend on Twitter, have a B.A.P-related username or icon when you comment on other K-pop videos on Youtube (don’t need to necessarily mention B.A.P - people will see anyway. Best not be annoying about promoting the boys).
Spread positivity!! Enjoy the comeback! Yes, the boys say they aren’t making music for money or wins, but that doesn’t mean they don’t want to win. If we want them to be respected and loved and have a steady place in the K-pop industry, we need to support them if we can. Seeing them happy will make us happy too
If you don’t have money or time, do what you can from this list. If for some reason you’re against the idea of being material with your support for B.A.P, then don’t complain about people “sleeping on” them, or them not being “popular enough” or “successful enough”. Fans and support don’t come from nowhere. People need to see and notice B.A.P to become a fan, and us whining about how much B.A.P has been through with the hiatus and whatnot without actually doing anything to physically support them won’t do anything. B.A.P don’t want pity, they appreciate genuine love and support.
Thank you!! and remember: “I will do my best” - Yoo Youngjae (Honeymoon, 2017)!!!! our king has spoken pls listen to him and do your best too :’))))
