JYP's controversy of power abuse in 2013

JYP hired subcontractors to produce and sell character goods. JYP expected them to sell well so they asked the subcontractors to produce a lot. About 5000 goods were produced. However, the amount that was actually sold was only around 140. JYP then said they'll only pay for the 140 goods (about $4,600), making the subcontractors pay for the production fee (about $100,000) and the rest of the unsold goods. The little money that JYP offered wasn't even paid properly. The subcontractors tried to sell the unsold goods at a clearance price, but JYP banned them for copyright issues. When it became controversial, JYP clarified that they weren't aware of the loss of the subcontractors because they consigned the business to a management company. The management company turned out to be owned by Park Jin Young's in-laws.

Pann: JYP's power abuse on subcontractors that was buried

1. [+163, -11] This was the fault of JYP's worker. The worker was fired and JYP compensated the subcontractors.

2. [+122, -11] Seeing this, I'm realizing how dirty YG is. Prostitution, sexual services, drugs, overseas gambling, embezzlement, tax evasion... I can't even remember all.

3. [+117, -6] I wondered why it was a picture of Nichkhun, not Twice. So I looked up and it was in 2013. That was when JYP was flopping, so people didn't care whether it was good news or bad news. If this broke out today, they would've gotten a lot of hate.

4. [+53, -4] I searched up and it really was a JYP worker's fault, so they gave compensations. It was also in 2013. OP, are you a fan of the drug store?

5. [+33, -1] JYP compensated and took care of it. Why bring this up?

6. [+33, -4] I smell some content manipulator ㅋㅋㅋㅋ Once JYP realized it was their worker's fault, they fired the worker and compensated right away.

7. [+28, -1] I smell a content manipulator~

8. [+26, -11] Yet they emphasize characters, tsk tsk.

9. [+25, -0] What is this content manipulator I'm seeing?

10. [+21, -1] You know JYP's work style. They consign a lot of things to their workers and invest all their money into adventures. I still don't understand. If they took care of Wonder Girls and 2PM with domestic promotions, they would've had solid fandoms and done well. They never came back from the US. I really thought JYP was gonna flop after Wonder Girls and 2PM died. I didn't expect them to revive with Twice. They seem to be doing a good job now.

Revenues & profits of the big 3 this year

* The currency is won

Pann: Business profits of the big 3

1. [+153, -34] YG has been out of the big 3 since a while ago. It's been confirmed since January. Now the big 3 is Big Hit, JYP, and SM.

2. [+149, -1] SM should focus on entertainment instead of useless businesses.

3. [+82, -5] Look at drugstore roaches being upset over their agency going into a deficit.

4. [+74, -7] The experts also agree that YG is out of the big 3. Their image aside, their profits aren't any better than an average small agency. Big Hit is surpassing the results of big 3 so the word "big 3" is also pointless. It's just Big Hit as the top.

5. [+61, -58] SM wouldn't suffer a deficit if they give up on NCT.

6. [+36, -5] SM does so many businesses and suffers a deficit from that. Once EXO has a comeback in the second half of the year, they'll make profits right away. It was the same situation last year.

7. [+35, -4] I heard that Lee Soo Man is pocketing the money, though.

8. [+32, -15] JYP has huge profits from Twice and GOT7 alone ㅋㅋㅋㅋ Their world tours and goods sell really well.

Big 3 looks + female idols of JYP & SM

Pann: What are SM looks, JYP looks, and YG looks?

1. [+182, -13] SM looks are like a deer. Pale, big eyes, elegant neck line, and clean looks. Yoona for female looks and Sehun for male looks. YG is said to not care about looks but they case someone if they're extremely pretty or handsome. But there's no consistency. TOP, Sandara, and Jinwoo are the examples. GD, Taeyang, and Song Mino look pretty similar to each other so they're also said to be YG looks. For JYP, they prefer males with big bodies and nice-looking faces. Yoo Kye Sang, Taecyeon, JB, and Junior are examples. They're like overseas boys who promote in YMCA. For females, they used to prefer the looks of Park Jiyoon and Sohee, but since Suzy, they switched to innocent and kind-looking faces.

2. [+168, -1] SM is textbook-standard looks. JYP is natural beauty looks. YG is unique & stylish looks.

3. [+138, -10] Once I see a YG artist, I never forget their name. Maybe it's because there aren't many members ㅋㅋ There's no other kid that looks similar. When I started liking Bigbang, it look some time to memorize their names. After that, I never got GD and Seungri mixed up. Same with CL and Minzy ㅋㅋ

4. [+110, -3] They used to be distinct in the past, not anymore

5. [+88, -2] SM is like a deer with sparkling eyes, like Yoona and Go Ara. JYP is classy actress looks like Suzy, Tzuyu, and Mina. YG has only one visual and the rest of the members look unique.

6. [+85, -4] Honestly, I can only think of 'stylish' for YG

7. [+81, -5] If we're talking about main visuals, YG is my type

8. [+79, -0] SM has a lot of standard looks and JYP has a lot of handsome and pretty kids that are natural-looking.

9. [+75, -0] SM is fancy. JYP is clean, bright, and innocent. YG is very obvious. Their style is very unique and fashionable.

10. [+75, -6] TOP and Jinwoo are top male visuals.

Pann: JYP's girl group tradition

1. [+183, -4] Wow, the maknaes Sohee, Suzy, and Tzuyu are the faces of JYP

2. [+150, -3] And the maknaes are the most popular ones ㅋㅋ

3. [+119, -1] The unnies are sobbing hard but the maknaes never cry

4. [+42, -0] What's interesting is that the maknaes are the most popular members. Sohee, Suzy, and Tzuyu.

5. [+36, -0] At a Wonder Girls concert, the fans shouted "don't cry" when other members cried but they shouted "cry" to Sohee ㅋㅋㅋ

6. [+31, -1] How are you doing, Sohee... Can you hear me...

7. [+28, -0] The maknaes became popular the fastest

8. [+21, -0] I think Jihyo cried hard because she was a trainee for 10 years ㅠㅠ I'd also feel emotional. Jihyo-ya, you've worked hard for 10 years to achieve the dream of becoming a singer ㅠㅠ

Possible JYP trainees for 'Sixteen' season 2

Park Jin Young had mentioned that he will be launching two girl groups (one of them being Twice). At a lecture, he said there will be Sixteen season 2. Rumors say at the earliest, they will debut at the end of this year when the male version of Produce 101 'Boys 24' ends. If later, they'll debut in the next summer.

Somi (born in 2001)

Winner of Produce 101. She has a strong fandom and she's 99% confirmed to debut on season 2. She might not even participate in the show because she's too obvious to debut, unless Mnet wants her for more attention.

Lily M (2002)

Yang Hyun Suk also expressed that he wanted to cast her. She's very talented in singing. People expected her to choose YG, but after discussing with her parents, she chose JYP.

Those that went to the trainee showcase say she's talented in everything including dancing and singing.

Hanseol (2001)

Chaeyeon (2000), Chaeryung (2001) - sisters

In charge of dancing. Rumors say they switched to Fantagio and will debut in the same girl group as Yoojung from Produce 101.

Natty (2002)

Thai member on Sixteen who could dance very well. Park Jin Young also praised her a lot but she wasn't picked.

Yejin (2000)

She's said to be very pretty. Her singing is decent.

Ryujin (2001)

Main vocal material with a decent visual

Sookyung (2002)

Instiz: Predicted members for JYP's Sixteen season 2, it's already packed

- I doubt that they'll make Somi do a third survival show

- I thought Sixteen season 2 was about a boy group?

- Wow, new girl groups aren't born in the 90's anymore ㅠㅠ

- No wonder why JYP's casting team visited every school in my neighborhood

JYP casting manager visits schools for casting

"JYP casting manager is currently at XX Middle School!"

-

Pann: Crazy, JYP casting manager is at my school

1. [+74, -1] JYP must be casting people right now. They came to my area and cast a kid with a trashy personality...

2. [+41, -0] I live in Pyungtaek and they came to all middle and high schools in Pyungtaek. They came to cast kids. A school would've gone crazy if someone got cast but it's all quiet here ㅋㅋㅋㅋ I guess they left without casting anyone.

3. [+28, -0] They also came to my school ㅋㅋ There's a guy below my grade and he's really handsome. He got cast ㅋㅋㅋ I heard that he rejected the offer though.

4. [+10, -0] A lot of people are auditioning for JYP, why are they casting?

5. [+10, -0] Hul, interesting... So that's how they find kids with good visuals and bodies... I envy them ㅠㅠ

6. [+8, -2] They can't even take care of their current artists. Why are they casting ㅡㅡ

7. [+7, -0] Is this JYP's official Facebook? Why are they posting that?

8. [+6, -1] JYP casting manager does a really good job. They cast Suzy when she went to a bathroom at an audition and they went all the way to Taiwan to cast Tzuyu.

9. [+3, -0] I live in Australia and they also came to my school. I was so fascinated ㅋㅋ They asked me if I knew any handsome Korean guy. I told them about several guys but the manager couldn't find them and left because my school is really big.

10. [+2, -0] They came to my area and cast a guy who's mixed or foreign ㅋㅋㅋ He's a delinquent who sleeps around, drinks, and smokes.

When Park Jin Young and Yang Hyun Suk almost fucked up

YG - "Jiyong-ah, do you want to go home after 6 years of training?"

JYP - Third eliminee: Momo

-

Pann: When Park Jin Young and Yang Hyun Suk almost fucked up

1. [+127, -3] If Yang Hyun Suk sent GD home, YG wouldn't have gotten into big 3

2. [+96, -109] Twice fans don't really like Momo, aren't they basically forced to stan her? Twice would've done better if it was Somi or Jiwon.

3. [+91, -1] GD: "Yeah, I'll go home." Yang CEO: "No... I meant to go to my home... for a delicious meal..."

4. [+66, -6] Why would Momo's elimination be a fuck up? It has to be someone like GD or Suzy ㅋㅋ

5. [+59, -2] Yang Hyun Suk pulled GD out of SM, he'd never send him home ㅋㅋㅋ

6. [+52, -27] Momo's special pass was god's work

7. [+51, -3] I don't think eliminating Momo would be a fuck up

8. [+49, -2] Yang Hyun Suk said that just to make GD nervous. He didn't even mean it.

Park Jin Young gets asked about Somi's elimination & Hani

Defconn: "Why did you eliminate Somi on 'Sixteen'?" "Hani is said to be a former JYP trainee. Why was she dropped?"

-

Pann: Reasons for Somi's elimination from Twice

1. [+92, -15] I don't like how Hani constantly mentions JYP. A trainee gets dropped because they're lazy, controversial, or have no star qualities. It's her own fault. Hyorin was supposed to debut but the circumstances didn't work out so they introduced her to other company. But that wasn't the case for Hani. When I went to a trainee showcase a few years ago, both were the main.

2. [+70, -12] Because her final rank of voting was #9 and she was out of the ranking for voting on the scene.

3. [+56, -4] Because she's young

4. [+45, -1] Why are people saying that Park Jin Young doesn't have good eyes? Somi was obviously planned to debut in the next girl group after Twice. She went on Sixteen and Produce 101 to gain popularity. There are other JYP trainees who didn't even go on Sixteen to have a mysterious image. Somi was exposed to gain popularity in advance. JYP's next girl group will be very issued because of Somi and that's what Park Jin Young intended.

5. [+31, -4] Coni is a Twice stan and also a Somi stan ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

6. [+28, -0] Am I the only one who's frustrated with people mocking Park Jin Young's eyes? You're basically insulting JYP artists. JYP just lets their leftover trainees go to other companies.

7. [+25, -27] Somi winning #1 on Produce 101 is thanks to Twice's fandom and JYP's fandom. It's not purely from Somi's fandom ㅋㅋ If Somi leaves JYP, half of her fans will be gone.

8. [+22, -23] Because she got a small number of votes

9. [+19, -4] What kind of bull is this? The viewers enraged when Somi was eliminated. The article comments were criticizing Momo for debuting despite her elimination and Somi had a lot of supporters. How can you say she was the most unpopular member for Twice ㅋㅋ

10. [+19, -1] When a trainee leaves JYP, it's because of one of the three reasons. You have a messy relationship with opposite sex, you go to other company to debut faster, or you have no charms. Cecilia and Lina were the second reason. Cecilia had rumors of having messy relationships but it's not confirmed. I've stanned JYP for 10 years and it's always these reasons.

Which of the Big 3 companies is the best at dancing?

Pann: Which of the Big 3 companies is the best at dancing?

1. [+56, -15] I like playful style of dance, so YG for me ㅋㅋ

2. [+48, -18] I'm an SM stan but my favorite style is YG. Their tumbling and synchronized choreographies are so cool... I'm a fan of b-boy. I also like soft waves and stuff like that.

3. [+38, -10] SM and YG

4. [+29, -2] JYP dancers won't lose at anywhere. They lack popularity but Yugyeom and Momo are no joke. More than half of GOT7 members are very good dancers.

5. [+21, -5] YG for male idols and SM for female idols

6. [+18, -3] JYP fandoms aren't as big but they're the best at dancing. More than half of 2PM members are good. For Miss A, Fei is recognized because she was on a lot of dance shows. Jia is also a good dancer. Most GOT7 members can dance and Mark literally does acrobatics. Momo is also famous.

7. [+16, -1] They're all good, but YG is my style

8. [+15, -0] YG for groove style. SM for female idols.

9. [+15, -2] I like perfectly synchronized choreographies, so I like CL's Hello Bitch, Winner during WIN, and iKON's stages.

10. [+13, -2] SM for vocals. JYP for dance.

Pann: Income divisions of SM-YG-JYP

1. [+86, -18] God YG

2. [+64, -7] JYP changed it to Company (30) and Artist (70)

3. [+61, -10] Groups with overseas promotions like TVXQ, SNSD, and Super Junior must be daebak ㅋㅋ EXO seems to have started overseas promotions recently. I guess SM isn't satisfied with domestic promotions and is trying to expend their international popularity. Still, 9:1 is too much.

4. [+31, -1] YG's individual earnings are no joke ㅋㅋㅋㅋ They also produce their own songs so their royalty is amazing ㅋㅋ Just look at TOP and GD's houses, they're extremely rich.

5. [+28, -3] Wow fuck, I can't believe YG. They're literally giving it all to their artists. If I'm guaranteed to succeed as an artist, I'll go to YG for sure. Their income division is just amazing ㅋㅋ

6. [+25, -5] SM is honestly shameless

7. [+24, -0] JYP is the fairest one
