By stepping up to a formal witness role over #FANOMENON, Park Jin-young willingly places his personal freedom on the line under the threat of a perjury sentence. It is a striking act of legal self-preservation that forces critics to bring documented facts. #Kpop #JYP

I got 2 men in a waiting room interested in BTS, because of my heavy hand bag. Don’t ask how the 7 became the subject, that’s a full essay in explaining. 😉 One of them already knew Katseye (daughter). The name BTS made a bell ring (not No. 29). The other didn’t know them yet.

2026.09.26 UPDATE: Park Jin-young makes a sudden tactical choice to upgrade his standing to a formal witness at the upcoming National Assembly audit. This piece dissects the legal mechanisms, the trademark timeline, and the real friction over the public fund for #Fanomenon. #Kpop #JYP

2026.09.29 Update: Park Jin-young alters audit status for K-pop’s FANOMENON claims.
* Park Jin-young upgrades his role to full witness to face perjury risks directly over Fanomenon.
* Focus shifts to eleven American trademark applications filed on a state-funded trip.
* The choice forces lawmakers to present hard legal evidence rather than rhetoric.

📊 Part 2 of the analysis breaks down the raw power politics behind the state-backed #FANOMENON festival. From manipulated budget metrics to exclusive global trademark grabs, find out why the other three of the Big Four should choose a path of mutual economic self-defence.

Part 2: The hidden layers of the FANOMENON alliance.
• Park Jin-young used hyper-inflated solo attendance metrics to secure a 15 billion won state budget.
• JYP split domestic rights with the ministry but quietly filed to hold lucrative overseas trademarks exclusively.
• Rivals HYBE, SM, and YG stay in the alliance to freeze scheduling, pressure JYP, and protect their own global intellectual property.

Why do alliances collapse under corporate self-interest? When Park Jin-young blurs lines between state duty and JYP Entertainment profits, a shortcut to secure the #FANOMENON trademark destroys the transparency required to build a festival alongside rivals like HYBE, SM, and YG. #SouthKorea

If you are HYBE, SM, or YG, how do you stay at the table? The smart move is to freeze cooperation and use the #FANOMENON state audit to force a restructuring. How do you think other labels should handle JYP Entertainment holding the master keys to the trademark? #Kpop

* Daysi * ⁷ ⟭⟬ ⟬⟭ 🇳🇱 ⦿ ☰ ☲ @dbyd.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

Protecting the shared #FANOMENON brand from thieves is vital, but doing it behind partners' backs is a breach of trust. The scale of this JYP, HYBE, SM, and YG alliance was meant to unite the industry, yet Park Jin-young's private trademark grab has left everyone with questions.

This The NY Times list gives Grammy vibes by ignoring global TV. Masterpieces like Attack on Titan, Crash Landing on You, Money Heist, and Dark are omitted. The reasons: a voting pool restricted to Hollywood, a massive Western bias, and the total erasure of brilliant foreign dramas.
