D...K... News...

Charles, I forgot about GNR and RHCP and I didn't know that about Nirvana and Oasis. I need to do more reading about toxic fandom. (Or do I?! 😫)

That's a copyright violation, and needs to have a copystrike registered against the channel. Well, imho, lol. Can't just go uploading someone's video wholesale. David and Danny, I can imagine you're worried about stirring up a hornet's nest again, but this is illegal to do. You have rights, and YouTube is on your side in this case. It's a pretty easy process to manually register a copystrike.

This was perfect. And I'm so encouraged by all the comments, most of which are about David's taco shirt, asking you two to cover the NCT Chinese members controversy, and saying they're happy to see the Japanese Bald Man. :) The small amount of people trying to defend their cancel attitude are being calmly talked to about why it was much ado about nothing. It feels like the worst is over. Great, great job you two.

"saturated" would have been a better word. Like a media saturation of BTS. I agree with Charles on this. You guys have to form a united front or you will fail. That's what pissed me off the most. Take a stance, say it with ya chest, and don't give a fuck. There will always be a hater but your loyal fans will always remain loyal. Those who really watch your channel knows your intent.

Why so somber for the intro? DKDK Fighting 💪🏼

Is there a video of the both of you talking through the editing of this video? I’d like to see that!

By the way do you guys know that David’s apology is still up and fans are still raging and bullying in the comments Dyke ( someone) who reposted it ??? https://youtu.be/TQwDA3JfV7Y

But I have to say that from a Western perspective, I myself feel you guys did not do enough wrong to deserve the bullying you got or ANY lose of subscribers from people devoted to kPop and Kwave as a whole. The people you lost, in my opinion, were the small faction of #naziArmy that are solely interested in DKDKTV only or mainly promoting BTS. The Kpop Kwave does not need such bullies; nor do they represent #LuvArmy (who need to stand up for DKDKTV more). The fact that David felt he had to be cautious about interpretations of OTHER fandoms is also a distressing acknowledgment that fascist stardom maybe be widespread across Kpop youth? I say as an elder Western fan of many genres with 45 years of fan experience since I was 10, that such a competitive and nasty fanbase within ANY genre will destroy the genre and hurt all the bands in that industry - such happened to late 60s rock (with riots in the UK by the way rockers and mods) punk (within 2 years), post-Wave (with Duran Duran fans), with Grunge (the wars between Oasis and Nirvanna fans leading up in part to Kurt Cobains suicide) and Numetal (With even band members of RHCP and GnR beating each other up at airports) and most violently the murders in HipHop generated by East coast Vs West Coast gang fan violence. The genres that had staying power, Brighton/Merced early 60s rock (beatles, Stones, American heartland rock (Springsteen and Tom Petty), glam rock (Bowie, Lou Reed, T-Rex), Visual Kei J-Rock - on the whole these band’s fans went to each other’s shows, the bands supported each other and wrote songs for each other; and they partied with and had even had awesome sex w each other). So Kpop has a choice - continue the competition and rivalry and fascist stan attacks and collapse under its own negative energy (and ridicule from fans of other / multiple genres) or pull together, support each other and become and continue to be a dominating cultural force. I’m SO happy that Danny reinforced his wish for the latter - that is true journalistic professionalism. Finally, you don’t get true credibility as music journalists by uncritically kissing the butts of any one fan group or by being timid about giving critique- yes with more research, evidence, and receipts sure - about when companies over saturate bands with commercial crap (proud of you Danny for doing that w BTS World and WeVerse) or when a band starts to stall. Have you seen the movie Rockstar about the teen Rolling Stone reporter who embeds with a hedonistic yet talented rock band. I highly recommend it with a subscription to Rolling Stone. Kpop journalism needs that critical media eye from your side as well as your support. Because I tell ya, NME, Rolling Stone, Guardian and the rest would tear a hole in any Kpop fandom (NME) that tries to promote a band through the bully tactics they often use. That criticism could stall out K-Wave and Kpop early and sadly take the focus off the music and talent. I wish DKDKTV would do more to earn stans of the destructive effect they are having on the Kpop genre. I feel it’s your job. I have high energy drag artists and lesbian Queercore bands to go video so see you in a few weeks. If any boyband girl drag groups do BTS I will be sure to send you a clip. Happy Pride month from Vancouver. Get some Kpop groups up here - we have a huge East Asian population, we host 3 comic cons a year- we hungry for MORE East Asian music (we just loved Miyavi last Thursday) and if BTS or Monsta X played a stadium here they would sell out. Our fans are also chill: toxic stans can stay home. #LuvArmy most welcome. Hugs Charles Emery BTGWTV Productions

Yes, awesome, comeback!

Chaz Emery

Great. I would love to hear y'all's take on big hit acquiring source music and what other companies they might be looking to acquire. One article I read mentioned they were looking for smaller labels that already have successful post-debut groups to add to their company.

Eri

well done guys!

Nicole

LalaS

Cathy

How can someone be able to understand Your, Danny, words about "having more BTS not for them but for you" or "being tired of BTS" or even that third one in a BAD way? English is not my native language but it was very EASY to get what he had in mind... Is it just my thouhts - or lately everyone is seeking for the reason to fight and argue?

Justyna Mucha

My comment isn't long or motivating but you guys did well; taking responsibility on all actions and comments.

Gabrielle Renae

DKDKTV
