Netizens Compare The Gifts Prepared By HYBE Groups For Fans At “2024 SBS Gayo Daejeon Summer”
On July 21, the hottest K-Pop groups came together for the “2024 SBS Gayo Daejeon: Summer,” a midyear special event that celebrated the first half of 2024 with special performances by the most beloved idols.
Fans who attended this event were not only lucky enough to witness their favorite artists live, but also received special treats from them. Each of the gifts, prepared by the groups separately, differed quite a lot from one another.
In a post that has since gone viral on the popular Korean online community, Theqoo, a user, compiled the special gifts prepared by each of the HYBE groups in attendance.
LE SSERAFIM treated Fearnots to Old Ferry donuts and vanilla milk.
ENHYPEN, on the other hand, gifted Engenes with a mug cup and coaster set.
NewJeans had prepared Gucci Flora perfume sets, along with OLENS gift cards and key rings for Bunnies.
TXT treated MOAs with madeleines.
Lastly, ILLIT gifted some delicious mango bingsoo (shaved ice) to their fans.

While some got to comparing the gifts against one another, most netizens felt that the gesture itself was sweet enough and didn’t warrant any comparisons.
- “…I’m jealous, LOL.”
- “As expected, NewJeans.”
- “It’s best not to do this. But if I actually got something, I would be very thankful, no matter what they give.”
- “Idols who didn’t give away anything are the smart ones. But is it okay to compare the ones who did gift their fans? This post is confusing, LOL.”
- “Haha, if they don’t give gifts, they get criticized for making money off fans without giving back. And if they do, they get compared. From a fan’s perspective, it’s better that they do anything at all, haha. I’m not sure if not giving gifts is wise, though, haha.”
- “Fans probably love anything their favorite singer gives them. Comparison posts don’t look good.”
- “If they’re ambassadors, the products are probably sponsored anyway.”
- “Wow. This is so bizarre…”
- “No matter what they give, I would be thankful.”
- “You should be thankful for what they gave. Why compare? Crazy… A group with multiple endorsements might have a lot of sponsorships.”
- “NewJeans, whoa.”
- “But why do they give gifts to the fans??? Music shows pay so little, and preparing gifts for fans on top of that seems really costly… Idols or fandoms who don’t give gifts back might get compared and look bad…”
