THIS IS IMPORTANT PLEASE PLEASE READ!!!
okay so i really need everyone to read this, its gonna be long but please this is really important. so recently we lost an angel, kim jonghyun. he killed himself, and it hurts a lot. there are people saying things like this is why the companys need to pay attention to the idols health more, because we don’t want this to happen again.. but when have they payed attention to the idols health in the first place. this is probably one of the reasons jonghyun killed himself, because he said the idol life wasn’t for him, he was being overworked, working hours a day, hardly getting payed and doing all this with depression. when you have depression while in a kpop group, you get payed less because you cant work as much, you have to take breaks and your “holding the group back” which is so fucking stupid..
ive been talking with a lot of people who like kpop but wont support it. and i always ask them why, you like it, but why cant you support it. and they all make a good point.. These big kpop entertainment companies like, SM, JYP, YG, Brave, Cube, and more are terrible companies. they overwork there idols to the point of exhaustion, to the point where there passing out multiple times in a day, in an hour. example Mark from nct, he hasn’t gotten a break, hes in every unit and is probably most likely overworked. these big companies are in a sense slave owners.. now don’t go hating on me now for saying that. I’m not saying they are but I’m saying in a sense they are modern day slave owners. for example, these idols are signing contracts to give up there life. they sign 5 to 10 to 15 to 20 years of there life to just be a kpop idol, and half the time, those 10 years that they signed away don’t even guarantee them an idol spot, that’s just training time. they have to work with no rest almost all day. not oh just 12 hours, no more like 18 hours sometimes if you want to get real extreme i could say some even work for 24 hours in a day. with no breaks.
what are we doing about this? nothing, we’re doing NOTHING about this. yea we make hashtags, we do small petitions, we voice our concerns but are we actually doing anything about this. because you may be writing your name on the petition but then after that what do you go do, you go back to youtube, to listen to the latest song, probably owned by one of the top 3 big companies. which is totally disregarding this petition or whatever, because when you watch a video on youtube, you buy an album, you buy a poster, you go to a concert. your putting money, not in the idols pocket but in the companies pocket. we are all supporting this, and the people around me are smart, they aren’t supporting it because we are supporting slavery in a sense. you’ve probably seen the dark side of kpop, getting paid a dollar every 5 hours. even prostitution, which i didn’t know about until i saw the videos.
if we all ALL of us, not just a few, went dark on kpop, boycotted kpop, i can bet that the entertainment companies would start treating the idols right. but it cant just be for a week, and it cant just be a few fans, we need the majority of people to do this. to pick a date where we will start, we will just stop everything, stop watching videos, stop buying albums, stop downloading music, and it could work.
if the companies weren’t getting out views our money and we voiced that we are done listening to kpop until our idols are for sure, showing us proof they are getting more money , and more rest, then we will join back in kpop. because if we continue to support this how many more idols are gonna die because they are overworked and depressed until we realize that this is wrong. its gonna get out there, people are gonna start realizing that it seriously is like slavery. and Americans are gonna find out and start saying your supporting this. because we are.
we all just need to get together pick a date, where we just stop listening, i can bet you if we all did this in less then 2 months even probably less then a month they would start treating the idols better, but we ALL have to participate
pick a date, and we will begin, we all need to do this if truly we want our idols to be better we will stand together and stop just stop go dark boycott kpop. it wil be hard but we can do it if we really want the idols to be better
please please PLEASE spread this around, don’t just like, reblog, and reblog, fuck if you agree with me fucking translate this to Korean, Spanish, Japanese, idfc, just get this out there, get people to know, we cant wait for another idol to die before we realize what we are supporting.
