my opinions on kpop bullying; a thread

i think an issue with stanning alot of underrated groups is there's a definite lack of stability compared to groups with more popularity that came from bigger companies. what i mean by this is (in light of the whole iluv situation) its alot harder for smaller companies to- (1/5)

choose group members based on who jells well together. this isn't to say bullying doesn't happen in bigger groups (ref. aoa) but when it comes to bullying past evidence suggests that lesser known groups seem to have this as a much bigger issue- (2/5)

of course; companies with more money can cover up these sort of situations a lot easier so sure there may be some difference in the figures due to that. but in my opinion it makes a lot more sense for bullying to be an issue in smaller groups- (3/5)

this is because lesser known groups come with more competitivity. if you're the least likes member of a group that sells maybe 2,000 album copies, chances are your fans are very few meaning your value and status as an idol is a lot lower than your peers- (4/5)

this is likely to spark a lot of jealousy in these smaller groups and whilst thats not an EXCUSE for bullying it is a possible cause for this near phenomenon. i have to stress that this is all my opinion based on what ive personally seen with bullying scandals amongst kpop groups
