K-Netizens Slam BPM’s Response Regarding SHINee Taemin’s Group Activities

With fans’ frustration rising about SHINee’s Taemin and BPM Entertainment regarding group activities, the company posted a statement online to clarify matters.

“Hello, this is Big Planet Made. We would like to clarify our position after seeing the concerns regarding Taemin’s group activities with SHINee on various social media platforms.

The content posted on social media contains false information, and we will take action against it. We have always supported group activities, which Taemin loves a lot. We are also working hard to ensure that our artists are treated fairly and receive the support they deserve.

We will continue actively supporting Taemin so he can shine as both a solo artist and a member of SHINee and protect him so he can grow into an even bigger artist.

We also thank all the fans who have continuously supported and loved Taemin. Thank you.”

However, netizens felt it was unfortunate that the group has ended up in this type of situation.

• “I never thought that SHINee would end up in such a messy situation.”
• “Why did he go there in the first place? It just makes him look like he’s all about the money.”
• “Money, money, money. So tired of it.”
• “What are the false rumors? That company always clarifies with nothing.”
• “So sad…my SHINee.”
• “Did they talk with Taemin before posting this? Why are they acting so tough? Just cooperate with SHINee.”

Previously, fans were frustrated that Taemin apologized to fans after not being able to attend the SMTOWN Live in Seoul concert.
