@zonequal This pattern can be seen if we observe how the post-pandemic media and stalkers both started getting information about Bangtan’s travels before the big hit revealed them. Everything comes from within and there are tons of people ready to BUY the information.

@zonequal Moreover, sometimes it may also not be part of the big hit, but third parties like hotel, flight, food, entertainment sections of the visit purpose. I really hope they can solve this problem better.

@zonequal not so far some bh/hybe employees themselves probably sell bts programs secretly rn too bc how do you all think sasaengs know everything and always up to date every time

@joonkooked @zonequal Yeah, it’s not new and almost the company has done it, although it’s not a good thing. Sometimes they contact the fan site about their schedule so they can access their private schedule. Some of the idols even contact the fan site personally, that’s what I heard

@zonequal This is incredibly sick…how can a professional even think of doing this. They should be prosecuted for their action both who sold and who bought.

@zonequal it’s so scary and dangerous please leave it alone
