A recent teaser from the K-Pop rock band DAY6 has sparked a debate. The teaser, which was meant to celebrate DAY6's comeback after their military service, included a scene with a Tel Aviv magazine in the background. This detail has led to a significant reaction from fans and the public.
Fans, known affectionately as MyDays, initially expressed their excitement for the band's return. However, the mood changed when the magazine's presence was noticed, raising concerns due to the complex situation involving Tel Aviv and the wider context of the Israel-Palestine conflict. Some interpreted this as an unintended message relating to political issues, leading to calls for a boycott of JYP Entertainment, DAY6's management company.
Discussion on social media platforms like Instagram and X (formerly Twitter) has intensified, with a specific hashtag "#JYP_BOYCOTT_GENOCIDE" being used. These fans are urging for the removal of the magazine from the video, highlighting the sensitivity of the political and humanitarian issues involved.
This incident coincides with a particularly tense time in the Israel-Palestine region, marked by severe humanitarian challenges. The ongoing conflict has had a devastating impact on lives and infrastructure, especially in places like Gaza.
Kpop fans would be more effective if they actually focused their efforts where it would either help the people of Gaza or present their views to their politicians. Fans are being reactive but *action* is what is needed. All this time, energy and money on boycotting and protesting a kpop company is a waste.

Oh for fuck sake that is a huge reach, its just a fucking prop 🙄 I'm so sick of these idiots and "we DEMAND this" and "we DEMAND that".....fuck the fuck off and when you've done that, fuck off even further 🙄 On the bright side, at least it has brought more attention to Day 6s return 😊
