So Big Hit wasn't completely ignoring the BTS Sajaegi accusations....

PANN [enter-talk]: WE WON'T NEED MORE SAJAEGI POSTS ANYMORE

t/n: "Notice of disposition of the case result"
(bighit submitted a "resume" of the events")
disposal information: case termination (Bighit entertainment)
the disposition testifies that Bighit wasn't bulk buying the albums of BTS
they argue that they were victims of rumors circulating and since they've explained it they ask the (sajaegi) case to be terminated


t/n: examples of case termination (t/n: sorry we're not really acquainted with judicial stuff so we're not sure if it's called "case termination" in English ^^;; correct us if we're wrong!) It happens when the case is filled anonymously/when the content of the case if not grounded/no specific facts/content is too vague/etc.

<case termination>
some kid who didn't have anything better to do started accusing them
and started spreading false rumors, without any legal proofs.
so when they went on trial, the judge couldn't even sort the case

<regarding album bulk buying>
It was way too much for Bighit to buy it back by themselves, the albums were bought by either other music companies or the fans

<mere rumors>
The rumors got worse because people wanted to get on the band wagon. To those who believed this incident, you're hopeless.

danger - 100K copies sold
I need you (2 versions) - 150K of copies sold
both Hanteo (Korean music chart) and the court testified that it wasn't sajaegi where did all the people who accused them go?

post response:

[+724][-103]

[+213, -13] there's kids who even after reading this would swear at them..tsk, Bangtan fighting, you guys suffered a lot

[+197, -7] this too

national album sales of 2014 : bighit is ranked #6

[+183, -10] from now on, there won't be any articles accusing them of sajaegi anymore. To think that there was even edited pictures of the member's "funeral pictures" going around...

[+114, -5] Min Yoongi told you guys, he's not joking with music

[+94, -0] seriously to those people who swore at them even once, you need to apologizeㅜㅜㅜㅜ When they won their first win on Mcountdown, you could see him staring at the trophy smiling, but the next day when he won the trophy he couldn't even laugh and held his head down, who's fault is it? ㅜㅜㅜ They worked so hard for 4 months just to get sworn at like that, if you have some conscience, apologize


[+81, -2] ㅠㅠㅠ

"after I started music, I won't joke around music and I've never did. It's such a pain to start making music, but believe me and follow me, because I'll make you hear good music if you allow me to"

[+78, -3] that's the day we were boiling inside and waiting for, part 2 has finally arrived Armys ㅋㅋㅋ

[+71, -0] the people who made funeral pictures of Bangtan, you should really apologize. Just because you hate someone, you have to go this far is just a behavior that I can't understand. You can't make joke about people dying

op: the timing of this news considering bangtan's imminent comeback is not a coincidence...

Tbh the Pann post was posted around a month ago but yeah.
Also their Gaon number for HYYH pt.1 hit 186k copies by September so.

Yep, but the translation came out quite late..

I didnt know the controversy was this big. Poor ypongi bb he works so damn hard in any case. People are constantly going on about how only sm jyp yg artists come on top but any time a new group starts to get popular they are just brushed aside ans made jokes of.

yess, omg this. i love my big three ok, but they can become really repetitive (especially sm and yg) and it's great to see new groups full of potential out there. Why would anyone want them to fail? BTS brings so much to the table in terms of talent and fans feel so threathened by it. Their yg/jyp/sm idols are still gonna do well, you don't have to drag another group down :/

Damn those are amazing numbers, proud of them. I hope big hit doesnt do a cute concept for their next girl group

[happydirections.livejournal.com]

looking back at their win for music bank it was not very enjoyable because some of them looked miserable especially yoongi and taehyung. it just really sucked that they and us fans couldn't be too happy because of all the accusations and hate. i'm happy this was clarified by the court. even if the fans showed proof the minute accusations were made.

finally international fans can have some peace of mind too. I'm so happy. the accusations were tiring and obviously hurt BTS.

I hate when people accuse idols from smaller companies to do "sajaegi" as if they weren't capable of sell well. I think anyone can see how big BTS fandom is, specially internationally (their youtube views are no damn joke and their overseas concerts have sold out) so accusing them of sajeagi is ridiculous. I hope they do as well or even better for their next comeback. They really deserve it.

[violoncelliste.livejournal.com]

even in case of big hit committing sajaegi photoshopping their funeral photos would just be vile

MY POOR SONS & RAPMON! ;___;

Glad to see this cleared up.
