K-netizens React To NewJeans Fans Sending Funeral Wreaths To HYBE On LE SSERAFIM Member’s Birthday 

Recently, a netizen in Nate Pann shared a screenshot of an announcement by NewJeans’s fanbase ‘NewJeans Gallery’ regarding their truck and funeral wreath project. 

However, some fans of LE SSERAFIM found out that NewJeans fans planned to protest by sending funeral wreaths to HYBE on the birthday of a LE SSERAFIM member.

In response, other netizens commented:

– Sending funeral wreaths to protest has been so common among K-pop fandoms, so do NewJeans fans need to know Kim Chae-won’s birthday and avoid it? What does sending funeral wreaths to protest against HYBE have to do with Kim Chae-won’s birthday?ㅋㅋㅋㅋ BTS fans also sent funeral wreaths on Minji’s birthday. When fans send protest trucks or funeral wreaths, they never avoid other idols’ birthdays. Pann girls are just trying to find something to criticize every time

– They’re not sending the wreaths to LE SSERAFIM, but to HYBE, right? Is LE SSERAFIM and HYBE the same? It’s not like LE SSERAFIM would get criticized if Bang Si-hyuk did media play on the Saudi Fundㅋㅋ Just make Bang Si-hyuk the 6th member of LE SSERAFIM…

– Stop overthinking… Do NewJeans fans need to know LE SSERAFIM members’ birthdays?ㅋㅋㅋ 

– Isn’t it weird to think other fandom will know the birthdays of idols they don’t like? You really think they decided on that day with malicious intentions?

– Just ignore comments from Pann. I like LE SSERAFIM but I don’t understand this…. Do fans have to know the birthdays of hundreds of HYBE artists to avoid them when planning protest projects? NewJeans fans quickly planned this project to response to HYBE’s leak of members’ videos during their trainee days and medical records. It’s weird to see people saying they need to check and avoid other HYBE idols’ birthdays… NewJeans fans didn’t care when fans of other HYBE idols sent funeral wreaths, trucks, or anything to the company on NewJeans members’ birthdays. Also, once you signed contracts for trucks or wreaths, it’s nearly impossible to change the date, or else, you will have to pay a penalty
