Did fans boycott JYP because of management of GOT7

4 months ago

Context by Compass

Fans of the K-pop group GOT7 have indeed expressed significant dissatisfaction with JYP Entertainment's management of the group, leading to various forms of protest. The main grievances include the company's failure to handle invasive sasaeng fans, lack of action against malicious comments, insufficient domestic promotions, poor social media marketing, inefficiency in managing overseas schedules, limited availability of albums overseas, and interference with self-composed songs by the group members. These issues have led fans to organize protests, including sending LED trucks to JYP Entertainment's headquarters and demanding better treatment for the group. A coalition of international fans has been filing complaints for years and even conducted a survey among 11,000 fans from 13 countries to highlight these concerns. The protests and demands for better management have been well-documented and reported by various sources, including Koreaboo, Kpopmap, and Korea JoongAng Daily. Therefore, it is accurate to state that fans have boycotted JYP Entertainment due to their dissatisfaction with the management of GOT7.
