He is referring to the misinformation and his past behavior towards BTS.
Koreaboo
Park Myung SooHYBE’s past “shadow” has resurfaced, triggering a strong reaction from netizens.
During an episode on his YouTube channel, in which he channeled the style of different boy groups, Park Myung Soo seemingly shaded HYBE when he explained, “Why does HYBE keep launching new groups? It is better to take care of existing singers.”
The comments resurfaced and went viral.

Although netizens initially supported “the shadow,” many shared the criticism to the point. Some explained that HYBE did not “debut” bands as it was a company that houses many companies that debuted bands.
um… the really bad thing is that you don’t know that HYBE is a company that hosts MULTIPLE labels. hybe is helping pledis/sourcemusic/ador/belift/bh management/sub label launch these bands but they are NOT 100% responsible for it. open schools https://t.co/RyWrNGQSgs

Hybe is not a record label and kpop companies release new groups every year so why pressed now https://t.co/ygbhOAaN7a

For the dummies out there:
Hybe does not have any group under itself, it has branches and each branch has only 2-3 groups.
So if we remove these branches, Hybe will not have any groups under them.
It’s a well divided company with several IPs and enough employees to grow it https://t.co/zW1Ea5Dk3X pic.twitter.com/etKhZH7uvC— Anagat⁷ (@anagatkal) December 11, 2024
Others responded to Myung Soo’s comments due to his past comments about how he treated BTS when they first debuted. Notably, during the meeting with Jin, a story was shared about his “bad” treatment of the group when they first met.
should I care about the opinion of someone who treated people who seemed inferior to him this way? lmaopic.twitter.com/k9l413Ufxf https://t.co/nAKG6QEb4w

Everyone knows that Park Myung Soo is a man who will ignore you, treat you coldly, or make rude comments when you are not popular, but will completely change his behavior when you grow up. He is one of the old guys promoted on Korean TV for no reason. I’m not sure his words have any meaning. https://t.co/s49O5uod5c
