why was bts's former manager fired the real reason revealed bts the south korean k-pop group that has
proven to be the creme de la creme of the genre these guys have taken full advantage of the
wave of success that came their way during 2015 rising to the top and gaining immense popularity
while you would think that the managers and staff around them would be on their best behavior
one of their first managers went overboard with the singers which had drastic consequences
it got to the point where he was fired but this is not the worst of the case
the worst was that this manager mistreated our cookie that's right just as you hear it
the previous bts manager was fired as he threatened and lost his temper with
several members of the group even raising his hand to jungkook which led to his dismissal
there was no violence but the aggression was enough reason for the dismissal
the manager who was fired was completely out of line in his treatment of the boys for overstepping
any boundaries between artist and manager the fact that there was also video evidence of his overly
angry and out of control behavior prompted bighit entertainment bts's representatives to dismiss him
from the manager position almost immediately the cause of the confrontation between bts and their
manager is not exactly clear but what is clear is that the argument had been escalating to the
point where violence was on the horizon it sounds almost too far-fetched to believe that a manager
could threaten the group's up-and-coming stars but not only was it true there was video to back it up
on one of bts's dvds specifically the 2016 season's greetings dvd there was a making of
segment that showed some behind the scenes footage what must have been a mistake or an oversight
during the editing process caused a small clip to be left out a brief clip of the director making
a move as if he was going to hit jungkook one of the singers with the large following that bts has
fans immediately responded to a collective wake-up call and took to various social media platforms to
express their concern for jungkook and the rest of bts in an industry that relies so heavily on
public image bts's representatives big hit pounced on the issue and began investigating
their initial response was rather calm and measured asking fans to wait to gather evidence
to try to better understand the situation barely a week passed before their next public statements
however either out of outrage or because of the evidence they had gathered they fired the manager
in question big hit took a firm stance against the manager's alleged actions making multiple
statements that they were going to endeavor to check other reports of similar situations and
monitor the behavior of their other staff members he further reaffirmed this sentiment expressing
that his number one priority is respect and trust for his artists with this came a new manager big
hit was clearly not kidding when he promised that a similar situation would never occur again
from one extreme to the other the new manager siegen who was appointed for bts
this manager has managed to build a reputation that is a far cry from the previous one
becoming almost as much of a fan favorite as the boys themselves
the love for him has reached a point where some describe him as the eighth member of the group
a true testament to how much he has cemented himself in the bts fandom earning the respect of
such devoted and loyal fans has certainly not been an easy task but judging by all the images of his
interactions with the group the respect and trust is well placed perhaps some of the sympathy and
understanding for the manager position has been spurred by the release of bts world
a simulator game aimed at giving fans a taste of what it's like to manage one of the world's most
popular k-pop groups if the game is anything to go by the position of manager must be one of the most
stressful imaginable constantly having to steer multiple big personalities through whatever storm
comes their way still the pressure is no excuse for what happened before but fortunately their new
manager seems to be in good hands the new manager is so good with the guys many times he accompanies
them in their tasks as artists and other times we can see him stepping out of his manager role a bit
and more of a friend or confidante role being so surrounded by the chaos of fame
they could use some contact with people on the outside who don't share that chaotic life even
though the previous manager was a terrible person the only thing we can take away from that incident
is that the boys were able to change managers and now they have one who takes good care of them
