Kanye West’s recent “Vultures Listening Experience in Korea” has stirred up quite the buzz online, especially after photos from the event were shared.
Several big-name K-pop idols were spotted at the party, including members of 2NE1, aespa, TREASURE, and NewJeans.
NewJeans members Minji, Danielle, and Hanni were photographed in a VIP area, chatting with CL and Minzy.
However, their attendance at the event quickly became a hot topic due to Kanye West's controversial past, including his history of antisemitism.
Many netizens are now talking about NewJeans’ presence at the concert. Some fans are excited about the possibility of a collaboration between Kanye and NewJeans, while others praised the members' music taste for enjoying the concert.
But there’s also a wave of criticism aimed at the group for attending the event. Some are questioning whether the members chose to go themselves or were encouraged to attend.
Comments from netizens range widely:
“Ugh… I hate this… why did these kids go to this event…”
“Why do people hate Kanye so much?”
“NewJeans going to a Kanye concert… it’s really not good…”
“Everyone is only criticizing NewJeans even though so many other female idols went too.”
“Is going to a Kanye concert a crime or something?”
“They probably only went so they could study his music.”
“The reason why people are criticizing NewJeans out of all the idols who attended is because only Bunnies bragged about NewJeans going to Kanye’s concert like it was an accomplishment. Other idols’ fandoms kept their mouths shut.”
Some netizens expressed their disappointment:
“I hate Kanye so much.”
“Wow, NewJeans are so disappointing…going to a Kanye concert…”
“Why in the world did NewJeans go to a Kanye concert? We can’t get the Eras Tour in Korea even though we all want it, but we can get a stupid Kanye concert??”
“I can see how it’s possible that NewJeans went to the concert without knowing about everything Kanye’s done, but I’m worried that they did know… It’s even more heartbreaking that 3 of them went.”
The event continues to spark debates online, with NewJeans finding themselves at the center of the conversation.
