Fanbase Claims HYBE Spreads Misinformation About NewJeans During Media Visits

Team Bunnies Highlights Concerns Over HYBE’s Media Tactics

On February 3rd, the Korean online community ‘theqoo’ featured a noteworthy discussion titled, “NewJeans Fanbase Team Bunnies Reports on HYBE’s Media Engagements.” This topic quickly garnered considerable interest among users.

The discussion referenced a recent report from “Team Bunnies, ” a prominent fanbase of NewJeans, which criticized what they termed “HYBE-style media play.” They expressed alarm over the agency’s actions, particularly following the conclusion of NewJeans’ contract.

Team Bunnies alleged that several media platforms have unlawfully utilized personal data and published misleading articles without appropriately verifying the facts. They emphasized that citation of these false articles by other outlets has intensified the issue. In their statements, they mentioned receiving numerous emails from journalists reporting the recent dissemination of inaccurate information, attributed to newly created accounts operated by the relatives of the group members.

Furthermore, Team Bunnies disclosed intel from journalists indicating that HYBE’s PR team leader is allegedly revisiting media outlets, which they interpret as a continuation of previous unethical media strategies.

In their assertion, the fanbase urged HYBE to cease all anachronistic interferences with media organizations and collusive business actions that hinder the careers of artists no longer associated with the agency. They called for a shift towards a more professional and rational approach.
