lu VI A SKZ

it’s true that the company doesn’t promote them properly or in the way the boys deserve. but saying something like “skz are widely known among korean k-pop fans as a group that doesn’t care about their kfans” is attacking THEM, their PERSONALITY, and that is EXACTLY WHAT MOST KFANS DO. they’re always commenting on and judging their bodies, and i’m not just hearing this from someone else, i read it myself on my tl: “lose weight, you’re too chubby” “cut your hair, you look like a girl with long hair.” the ones who seem to have no regard for their feelings are k-fans. and that’s just regarding their appearance, because i’ve also seen criticism of their music, criticism claiming they don’t dance (oh, what a coincidence, in run it tour they’re now dancing a lot, with extremely difficult and complex choreographies) “naturally kfans are going to gravitate toward groups that offer them more opportunities, activities, and benefits.” when you say that, all you do is confirm what all those tweets demonstrate. if you don’t have an event or a benefit, you lose interest in them. do you know when argentinian stays had their first event? THIS YEAR. AFTER EIGHT YEARS. it took eight years for us to finally have an event like a concert (which literally lasted half as long as their concerts in korea) and a pop-up. something that is completely normal for you to have ALL THE TIME. official promotions here literally only started this year, and yet the fandom never left just because we didn’t have an event or because they hadn’t come here. on the contrary, more and more new stays join every day because of THEIR MUSIC AND WHAT THEY TRANSMIT AND WHO THEY ARE AS PEOPLE. loving an artist shouldn’t be tied to them providing us with events 24/7, 365 days a year, and that’s something i only see happening with k-fans. not to mention that you’re always complaining about EVERYTHING. as for streaming, i understand that melon isn’t that easy to use, but even international fans organize themselves to buy accounts (which aren’t cheap at all) and do things properly. i don’t see any kind of organization from your side when it’s comeback time. all i see from k-stays are complaints about a dance or people winning video calls and making the boys do challenges. if you organize yourselves, believe me, you can improve that. “do you seriously think the ppl at the airport are kfans? those people are all foreigners” i don’t know, but what i do know is that when stray kids came to argentina for the first time, there wasn’t a single photo or video because NO ONE went there to bother them. we wanted their arrival to be peaceful, and i’m proud of that. meanwhile, in videos of them leaving the airport in korea, it’s not foreigners shoving their phones in their faces. i understand and agree with demanding better promotions from the company. i agree with criticizing the company. one label / div1 and jype in general aren’t doing what’s necessary to recognize stray kids’ hard work. these boys work their asses off day and night. but i will NEVER agree with blaming the boys or directing complaints at them when all these complaints are the responsibility of THE DIVISION AND THE COMPANY, who should be taking them into account and making improvements. in this very tweet, you’re actually proving my point. you complain about the boys when your complaints should be directed 100% at the company. instead, you choose to say things like “k-stays are losing interest in them” and “stray kids don’t care about their fans.” if they didn’t care about you, they wouldn’t ask you to not leave, they wouldn’t work day and night to prepare complex choreographies, they wouldn’t show up on fans the very next day after you complained during the previous live, and they wouldn’t say they won’t get buff for the next live when you were telling them in the previous one not to exercise so much because they were getting too big (yes, all of these things actually happened) +

lo peor de todo es que en cualquier momento van a anunciar ochocientas mil fechas y 3 encore para corea para sorpresa de nadie no es como que no van a tener nada y si es que “no había nada” en la agenda la empresa les va a meter esos eventos en algún lado aunque estén saturados y otra vez sobre explotarlos es siempre lo mismo siempre van a ser más beneficiadas a pesar de que sus quejas SIEMPRE van a tener el factor “quejemosnos contra los chicos vamos a decir que nos vamos del fandom”
