Blackpink fans receive criticism for bullying and harassment

On March 12, Winner's upcoming comeback was announced for the 26th of March. While the Korean public was anticipating Winner's next release, K-netizens pointed out an occurrence where whenever the company posts on their official account, blackpink fans would always swarm and curse at the respective artist. 


While they were already stepping over the boundary by not targeting the main problem, their label's management, but instead the artists who have no control over company matters, they've gone the extra mile towards their bullying and harassment agenda by specifically targeting the group's leader where comments followed: 

While this is only the tip of the iceberg, the fans continue to curse and use unrealistic claims stating Winner is using the money blackpink made towards their comeback. Netizens expressed Winner has been successfully touring and generating large sums through attendees, also adding the revenue they earn through each production of songs released (which have all hit #1 in South Korea charts), further implying their fans wish to continue believing what they want to believe to continue their bullying and harassment despite spouting nonsense and would rather be blinded by hate.

I'm f*cking speechless seeing them quoting Kang Seungyoon's tweet like that and cursing at Winner every day every time something about Winner gets posted. They always look at Winner and call them "flop" and saying how they are using BP's money to comeback; They are using the money from their tours produce their own music without relying on Teddy. It's so detestable how they are just cursing at Winner everyday

I'm a fan of another group so I wasn't aware of this but BP fans are cursing at Winner? I didn't know. Looks like I have to support Winner

I'm an Inner Circle and I didn't want this kind of post to make it to the featured talks. First of all, it's true that the BP fans are severe recently but it's not to the point that other community sites learn about it. That time, there was an Inner Circle who said something wrong too and it seems like it would've turned into something bigger. But at this time, I want to save my energy from fighting with other fans and spend it for their comebackㅠ Don't waste your strength for petty things and let's just ignore this. Also BP fans, don't say these things to Winner. Aren't we already busy hating on the company?..

Winner also went on an overseas tour and had dozens of domestic schedules too ㅋㅋㅋㅋ they are running around with no rest and are busy earning money with tours and variety shows. They still compose songs in their spare time but these fans are acting like only BP is making money and that they are giving their money to Winner's comeback to show mercy~~

I can understand flooding YG's official Twitter and asking for BP's comeback. Since Winner wasn't coming back, I can be understanding. But they go as far as bashing Winner, sexually harassing them, wishing them to get Corona virus, quoting Kang Seungyoon's tweet to curse at him and even going on their Vlive to hate on them.

On the contrary, leader Kang Seungyoon has been openly showing constant support to Blackpink long before their debut to now:

It's ironic since WINNER had gone through quite the mistreatment in their earlier years, they made ZERO comebacks in 2015 despite having such a successful debut in August 2014. After 18 months they finally had their comeback in 2016, only to go into ANOTHER hiatus (this time lasting 14 months). In 2017 they only released 4 songs. It was only until 2018 that they started to take matters into their own hand and are now working their butts off to make up for lost time because of their agencies management, but AGAIN they will be put in hiatus as their member Jinwoo and Seunghoon will enlist this year, this time their hiatus may last over 2 years. The main point is that ALL artists in YG have gone through some kind of mistreatment, it might not directly be in the same way but all artists have suffered one way or another. Bullying another artist is WRONG and should be CALLED OUT, the fact that this reached Korea shows how serious it has become.
