K-pop has honestly been a bit slow with news recently, which I haven’t minded, but that does give me the chance to write about a comment left on the Rundown post wherein I’m accused of being bought and paid for by SM Entertainment (and thus Kakao, right?) as a part of their $1 million contract to astroturf sites or whatever.
I take it as a compliment that I would be considered one of the viral companies or something.
SME has always struck me as the fascist company. https://t.co/lObUVhDBoU

This kind of stuff is just like deep cover, man.
Anyway, it’s a comment up there with the most insane ever, right next to the origins of #KimchiSneakyBitch.
Seriously though, I’m might try to recap the Kakao/SME/HYBE stuff at the end of it, but it’s a mess and I’m so far behind right now.
