Insights from HYBE’s Recent Reports on Jisoo’s Fandom
Recent disclosures from HYBE have generated considerable discussion within online communities regarding Jisoo and her dedicated fanbase. The reports highlight that Jisoo enjoys significant popularity in East Asia, particularly in China, while her influence in Korea and North America appears to be more subdued. This pattern mirrors that of fellow BLACKPINK member Lisa, and HYBE suggests that fans with a robust following in Asian markets may sometimes become embroiled in emotionally charged disputes over seemingly trivial matters.
The Dior Incident and Fan Reactions
One incident that captured the attention of fans involved the official Instagram account of Dior. The account shared a group image of its ambassadors, which included Jisoo and renowned figure skater Kim Yuna. Fans expressed dismay when the thumbnail featured Kim Yuna instead of Jisoo, prompting an outcry within Jisoo’s fan community. They argued that Jisoo’s supporters significantly contribute to Dior’s sales and questioned the brand’s decision-making. In response to the backlash, Dior promptly posted a dedicated feature of Jisoo, which appeased the concerned fans.
Controversies Surrounding Rosé
In addition to Jisoo’s fan dynamics, HYBE also addressed rumors surrounding Rosé, particularly related to alleged drug use. In 2023, former Burberry creative director Riccardo Tisci shared a photo from a high-profile party hosted by designer Eva Chow in Los Angeles, which inadvertently linked Rosé to drug-related allegations. Compounding these rumors was speculation about Rosé’s romantic involvement with actor Kang Dong Won, mainly due to their proximity at the event and perceived matching outfits. HYBE’s reports suggested that despite the negative attention, Jisoo’s fans were reportedly planning to circulate rumors about Rosé.
Overall, these revelations from HYBE shed light on the complex interplay between K-pop fandoms and celebrity culture, illustrating how passionate fanbases can shape brand narratives and influence public perception.
