[Theqoo] Summary and clarification on the whole situation that B mentioned on Bubble

Theqoo:

Summary: Someone wrote a post on Pann with a title "I was a fan of Baekhyun since his debut, but I stopped being his fan now". This user is questioned whether they are cosplaying as a fan. Fans pointed out from their post (highlighted parts)

"I've been a fan for a long time, but now I quit as I'm tired...

I miss that Byun Baekhyun who was pure...

He was discharged in early February.. It's already been 5 months since he was discharged... (Until now it's only been around 3 months)

So-called activities that he has done are just a few shows and all are Twitter activities.. (For these 3 months, he has just finished preparing group album, 7 new shows, 2 new choreography videos)

Does he know what his main job is?

He brought out that character Teolaegi that was made for fans during his public service.

Now he is working hard on his business and making money. (He has never started the personal business, Teolaegi is SM's goods)

I saw yesterday that he filmed an advertising for an Indonesian bank..(Now if even filming an advertisement is a problem...)

If the character was made for the military period, I think it should come to and end there..

Or if the fans like it so much that there are profits, make donation like a gift under the fans' name like IU.

It's not even a character for advertisement deal, but it's a character that he made himself and he is making this much business expansion with it...? (He doesn't do business with this)

Why does he seem only know money recently...

He is doing it because the fans like it? At the end who takes all the profits?

Innocent fans... umm...

Then he comes and play doing some typing and voice on Bubble or Twitter space several times...(The group album is delayed, so he actively comes and communicates on his no schedule days, I don't know why is this a problem)

Does he think fans will like all of that? Seriously?

Throw away the title 'Knowing fans well'!

Many fans hate Space.

If really because of fans, even if new song isn't coming out, as he came back after a long time, isn't it the best to do Youtube variety shows, some types of performances, or broadcasting activities...

What's him talking about the character business and do Twitter communication... 

The day before yesterday, he said on Twitter that he wanted to shoot an advertisement with that Teolaegi.. That's amazing, seriously. (He did not say he wanted to shoot an advertisement)

Earn more more more money

My words of blessing

Bye"

This post now has almost 200,000 views and over 1500 comments on Pann. It is also spread to other sites/communites especially Women's Generation (female dominated site). This site is well known as hateful site and they also start many ridiculous rumors and spread false information about B, also about other celebrities. 

Clarification on this whole situation:

1. Teolaegi is not Baekhyun's personal business 

Baekhyun only drew the design, but SM has all the business rights. It's the same as all other idols' 'goods'.

2. Teolaegi popup store is also not Baekhyun's personal cafe business

It's a popup store that only opens for 3 weeks, not for a long term, and SM usually has many popup stores like this.

Teolaegi popup store is the same as other popup stores that SM has opened so far, but the goods are around 10,000 won to 20,000 won.

For the drinks, Americano is 2,000 - 4,000 won, and strawberry latte is 6,000 won, and that is no different from ordinary people/general public popup stores.

The popup store run by SM, but because it's Baekhyun, they said it is his private business...

FYI, there is no entrance fee to to visit Teolaegi popup store, so you can simply go playing around without buying drinks and goods, so fans just visit a lot.

3. As for the sock group order, fans asked him where those socks are sold because they look good, he finds a way to make socks cheaper for fans to buy and will let fans know the site.. It's not like he is running a business..

4. Baekhyun has never abandoned his main job for 3 months after being discharged from the military

He finished recording EXO's album and music video. They had 2 group fanmeeting shows in Korea, 2 group fanmeeting shows in Japan, 1 solo festival schedule Thailand, 1 solo schedule for Korean festival, 1 birthday party/fanmeeting. He has performances throughout these 3 months. 

It usually takes a month to practice the new choreography, but Baekhyun prepared two unreleased choreography for the two songs from his previous solo albums and performs on stage. 

It's freedom that people want to hate or like celebrities, but whenever Baekhyun does something, rumors like these are believed as true in every communities, so it seems like he really needs to file a lawsuit.

______

Comments:

- Women's Generation (WG) they are the only problem.

- SM, please file a lawsuit!

- WG is really severe. Everything starts from there.

- But it's his own character. If he even starts a business, what's wrong with that?

- Seriously Baekhyun has so many jealous haters. I personally think it's nice to see him communicating with fans a lot.

- File a lawsuit. They are making and spreading rumors.

- I will never understand those people who follow and harass idols even though these idols are in this industry for many years... They would have grown old together...

- And they lie saying Teolaegi isn't popular.

- Honestly, WG hates EXO but they mention the group all the time LOL Even after Baekhyun was discharged from military, he is mentioned a lot in a positive way and he is still popular, so he has driven them crazy. They even hated on Teolaegi instead while Baekhyun was doing military services.

- If you wonder what is bothering them, it is that when Baekhyun does communication, the feedback is good, so they want to make a controversy to stop it. When my idol comes to do live communication, those crazy bunch of people try to disturb in various ways so that idols can't do it. They have the same method all the time.

- When Teolaegi first came out, it was so successful that they went crazy. I guess they are gonna go crazier because the doll is even doing better.

- I'm a fan of another artist and I'm even jealous when it's about Teolaegi, I envy his fans though...I hope my idol to have a character popup store with that high quality too.

- I don't know what they are living for?

- SM! file a lawsuit on those hateful comments on behalf of your artists. People that need to be sued can fill a whole truck.

- Twitter space? you mean they don't want him to making some money but at the same time they are hating him on communicating for free.

- I was like can you bash Baekhyun for his craft and communication? as expected, it's a false information. Where they can find an idol who is in his 10th year of career keeps on growing and communicating well. This is ridiculous.

- He hasn't released new song and you tell him to go to YouTube variety shows or other shows? Who the hell does that? That post is so funny. Even for those who don't like Baekhyun, isn't this a bit illogical lol

- It's only been 3 months since he was discharged from the military, but they sound like he didn't have a comeback for 3 years. It's not a fan but an anti.

- If only Baekhyun filed a lawsuit just once before. 

- I'm a fan of another artist and I even know about the Love Me Right version 2023, and they have the nerve to say he abandoned his main job. Didn't he just release OST? I envy that he got back to work right away though. Why are they like that?

- WG and DC are just the 2 biggest trash. There was a time when rumors spread seriously there for my idol. Every late night, they gather like cockroaches, writing down hateful comments for a few hours, delete them, and repeat that for a few days. Later, the same content was spread in every rumor community like trash. 

- WG is like a gathering place of crazy trolls over celebrities. If you read posts there, you can see 300 reasons why they hate each celebrity.

- He has only been discharged from the military for three months. It's because he was preparing for the group album and it got delayed. Wasn't it supposed to be a comeback soon?

- Baekhyun is continuously hot. Hope he sues them.

- Why are they like that? I'm not interested in Baekhyun and EXO, but that character is so cute and the store is so pretty that I want to go there. Why do they harass someone who is good at work? I just knew he finished his military service. I support him.

- Even after he was discharged from the military, his fan base is still strong and that make them go crazy.

- The way they cosplay as fan is quite clumsy. I'm not a fan, but I even want to have one Teolaegi.

- A Twitter user also said that they was going to quit the fandom yesterday in the same way like this.. are they trying to gaslight the fandom? They are going to make the fans suspect the member and leave the fandom? I feel like they are jealous and hateful.

- I stopped reading when I see it was from Pann lol. They also did a 'quit being a fan' show on Pann for my idol.

- Is it because Baekhyun is popular? Yes, I'm just fond of Baekhyun. I should buy an album when Baekhyun's song comes out LOL to make those WG mad.

- Who the h*ll even quit being fan from WG site LOL

- The prices are reasonable. I want to buy!

- No but if they are making a fuss when he is just for 3 months, they must have been waiting for him more than anyone else.

- Now I'm waiting for Baekhyun's sock GO. (Not a fan) What to do if the sock GO is gone because of these trolls huhu

[Youtube] KIA Tigers initially reached out to BaekhyunTown to put Baekhyun birthday advertisement at their Champions Field

Youtube: KIA Tigers initially reached out to BaekhyunTown to put Baekhyun birthday advertisement at their Champions Field

- I'm a fan of KIA, but it was amazing and I like it a lot! I also called Baekhyun's fans around me and told them I saw it LOL KIA and Baekhyun, hwaiting ❤️

- If it doesn't negatively affect the players, and at the same time it can also help attract new fans, so I'm thinking positively.

- But I think this kind of collaboration is good. It seems they are helping each other. I think we can aim for attracting each other's fan base which is full of loyal and longtime fans. I hope this to happen more often.

- KIA baseball fans are also thinking about this very positive. The majority of responses is "They are good at business".

- The KIA team had a good idea. Thanks to that, fans who don't know baseball came to the baseball stadium and they also received advertising fees.

- The people in charge are really genius.

- Happy birthday, Baekhyun-nim.

- Jokes from baseball fans and Baekhyun fans on Twitter are also so fun.

[Youtube] Baekhyun pretended to be jealous over fans raising ‘I Love You’ slogan for other artists at Lovesome festival

YouTube:

Baekhyun: I heard you guys folded <Byun Baekhyun> (part of the slogan) and showed only the <I love you> part when other artists on stage, is it correct? 

Fans: Yes!!!

Baekhyun: So are you going say ~I love you~ to everyone? Should I leave? I’m leaving now!

[+1.5k] Just a passer-by Monbebe… but uhm Byun Baekhyun, I love you.

[+894] This day every time Baekhyun said something, I looked around and all the ladies were exploding and laughing...It's true. Everyone looked so happy.

[+624] Can laughing sound be that heart-fluttering?

[+342] I believe fans would think that he would compliment them for cheering up other artists, that’s why they confidently replied ~Yes~ but they received his affectionate jealously as an reward lol

[+95] Meanwhile his word choice is insane. If it were me, I’d say ~Are you going to say I love you to anyone?~ but instead he said ~(Are you going to say I love you) to everyone?~ so that other artists wouldn’t feel bad. As expected he’s pro.

(t/n: the word he used sounds with a nuance of everyone, while the other sounds like anyone randomly)

[+87] I think fans would still raise slogan with the I Love you part next times. Baekhyun was jealous? Haha isn’t it exciting?

[+65] In the meantime, I feel that it's really gentle and considerate of him to say "to everyone" rather than “to anyone else”.

[+43] Jealous Baekhyun makes my heart flutter.

[+36] First tier idol is as expected different, just so different. I believe he would think that it was so beautiful and considerate of the fans to cheer for other artists, but he just pretended to be jealous. 

[+13] Handsome man’s jealousy… it’s so exciting.

[+8] They managed to make oppa jealous… hoot

[Theqoo] Baekhyun's birthday advertisement on KIA Tigers Champions Field Ad

Theqoo: 

- This is fcking funny, my eyes kept going toward the ad board. Wish you a happy birthday, 92-er Byun Baekhyun!

- Our (baseball match) rating is very good. Idol fans, put your ads here!

- The ad board is really eye-catching while watching the show lol Hope my idol has ads there too.

- Honestly a baseball match lasts for 2-3 hours, so it's great to put ads there. Let's do this for my bias too.

- KBO League's rating is all-time No.1. Please give it a lot of attention and love.

- My husband asked me who was he, he asked every time the ad board was shown lol 

- Rather than bus or subway ad, this ad here attracts more concentration. 

- Not a fan but I learnt Baekhyun-ssi's birthday May 6.

- This is effective.

- My family asked who was BaekHyunAh (t/n: the message is "Baekhyun-ah, I love you") and it was so funny

- Now Baekhyun-ssi needs to come to throw the first pitch.

- I'm KIA fan, and it's so funny to see Baekhyun's birthday ad board all the time. Who thought of this idea?

- KIA fans learnt Baekhyun's birthday.

- It's such a pity that my bias's birthday is during the off season.

- There must be more idol ads in the future.

- Baekhyun is totally a victory fairy.

- Victory fairy Baekhyun-nim, please come to throw the first pitch.

- Today thank you for cheering KIA won. I'm so happy. Please come to throw the first pitch.

- Baekhyun's ad board is eye-catching. Since you became a victory fairy, you should come and throw the first pitch.

- I'm a muggle but I learnt Baekhyun's birthday today.

- Our rating is good and our ad board is big too. Welcome to put ads here!

- I was mad watching the match, but I feel good to see refreshing idol face.

- My dad asked who was Baekhyun. He thought his last name is Baek and his first name is Hyun. The ad effect is good though.

- It's a win-win for all.

- Please put more ads here. It's nice to keep seeing handsome friends. Baekhyun-ssi, happy birthday!

- My dad said Baekhyun looked pretty and wondered how could Baekhyun be a baseball player ... and my dad thought Baekhyun was a rookie player. 

- My family was watching the baseball match and asked who was Baekhyun. KIA match's rating is high so the impact is good.

- The topic is hot, it's KIA and Lotte, so it's even more daebak. It was so funny. I was having meal and watching and my dad asked what was Baekhyun, was he a player.

[Theqoo/Twitter] Baekhyun gifted a huge Teolaegi to a kid fan on Children's Day at his birthday party

1. An 8-year-old kid likes Baekhyun, so she came to his birthday party with her guardian.

2.  At the end, Baekhyun wanted to give the kid the huge Teolaegi he had with him during the entire birthday party as a surprising gift. 

3. He was supposed to do , but the audience shouted to give it to the kid.

4. Baekhyun heard it and personally went down to directly hand the huge Teolaegi to the kid. It's Children's Day today. 

Theqoo:

- It's like the princess came to see the prince.

- Princess, hope today to be your best Children's Day.

- It's so heartwarming to hear the fans shouting ~give it to the kid~ it's the Children's Day today.

- I think the kid will remember this for the rest of her life. Hope you have a nice Children's Day, little princess!

- After a long tiring day, reading post like this makes my heart a little warmer. Both fans and Baekhyun are cute.

- The fans are so heartwarming. Honestly fans must have wanted it, but it's so beautiful that they wanted the kid to receive it instead.

- The world became more heartwarming after I saw this.

- Sometimes little thing like this makes me believe that kindness still exists. 

- Lovely... I feel happy too to read such a nice story on Children's Day.

- Little good action leaves big impact. Hope the kid will have a good memory.

- Ah it's so beautiful... the photo is like from a movie.

Twitter: (viral tweet)

- This time is daebak as well.

- I'm crying reading this. The mom seems to be a fan too, but she gave the seat at the 1st floor to the daughter, and she went to the 3rd floor. This is mom's love as well.

- He is straight up the Leader of first tier.

- This is the most beautiful 'A-ju-ra' (give to the kid)

- This oppa always has novel-like things.

- And Baekhyun has become the president yet?

- Baekhyun-sama

- Seeing this makes me happy too.

- Baekhyun's existence is the welfare of life.

- Is Byun Baekhyun an angel..?

- Baekhyun-oppa is the whole nation.

- The fans are so heartwarming.

- Baekhyun to the National Assembly !

- I'm crying!

- That's cute. I was reading the quotes and I wondered what's "a-ju-ra". I did search it and it turns out that it's a culture at a baseball match, when an adult catches a homerun ball or foulball, others would shout "Give it to the kid". Baekhyun-ah, give Teolaegi to the kid!

- Someone said this the 'A-ju-ra' of idol world. This is touching. Hope the kid to have an unforgettable Children's Day.

- Ah the photo where everyone is happy.

- What to do.. Baekhyun go for the President.

- As expected of Baekhyun and unnies that love Baekhyun.

- As expected that the president is different.

- Why am I watching a drama... this is a drama... Eris are the cutest.

- Just thinking that the kid would remember this day for the rest of her life makes my heart warmer.

- I'm so weak at touching thing like this.

- This is 'A-ju-ra' idol version (in a positive meaning)

- People that love cool person are even kind.

- Everyone is so nice. They are nice that everyone is happy.

- This poppy's life is like a novel.

- Guys, we have the president here.

- The world is still heartwarming. Sweet Kim Yeoju unnies.

- This is so romantic and sweet.

- Eri unnies, this is so sweet and touching of you.
