Boy Group Fans Send Highly Unusual Protest Truck To HYBE
Of late, protest trucks have become one of the most frequently opted communication methods of K-pop fans to directly approach labels about their grievances. From complaints about mistreatment to demands for the removal of executives, protest trucks have become the go-to way for fans to reach out to companies when they feel their voices are being ignored otherwise.
However, recently, a very unusual kind of protest truck was spotted on the streets of Seoul. Instead of the typical demands, the LED screen on the truck said, “XX’s stylist, open your eyes,” followed by a graphical presentation of what kind of hairstyles fans wanted to see the idols in.
Another message displayed on the screen read, “XX’s stylist, wake up!” and included a detailed description of what kind of hairstyle fans were tired of seeing.
XX’s stylist, wake up!
❌Sloppily done, greasy, boxy, fully-exposed-forehead hairstyles ❌
❌ Excessive hair gel ❌
❌Carelessly shaved hairline, sideburns ❌
— The message on the truck
This unexpectedly detailed protest truck turned out to be from the fans of ENHYPEN. The boy group is gearing up for a comeback on January 8, KST.
Netizens were left in stitches after the protest truck photos went viral.
- “What is this? LMAO.”
