Okay who thought it would be a good idea to release a box set without the main character/actor’s face on it?!??…
This whole thing was good publicity for Apo though... Dude gained Thousands of followers on SM overnight, even 10,000 followers on weibo. 😂😂 good for him.
Maybe writing about Mafia, the concept really got into their head? Let's face it, they were never this famous…
Exactly, well said, they are very short sighted... You never attack fans, even when you feel wronged! At the end of the day, you want people to give you their money and you don't do that by showing your righteous indignation and playing the victim, that never goes well, someone needs to explain to them the concept of "the client is always right"
Can I ask what they did, cause I don’t know anything
They didn't invite Po to the photoshoot for the book cover, only Mile Build and Bible were invited, after fans questioned them for not having Apo in the book box set, they give this dumb excuse that he was "running errands" or some shit, then they cancelled the whole book pre order (which was fine and expected) and pushed all communication on Be on cloud who didn't help cause they put out a statement that basically pushed all the blame on Apo and made themselves the victim in this whole debacle, and fans were even more pissed.Then Apo liked some tweets that were calling out the authors for their bad decision making, and they had the hairy balls to question him! IN PUBLIC! 😂. anyway Apo said they could have lined him about the shoot and the authors blamed him for not speaking out and clearing the "misunderstanding" 🙄. And then dug deep and brought out those hairy ass balls again and started to threaten fans with legal action and advised some one to "go die and be born again as a human"... This is serious, now some fans (a few though) want to boycott the series. Now your all caught up
RANT: I don't understand the authors thought process... How dumb can you be? You don't even need to be in PR to know that despite them giving Apo this chance to act in the show (ofcourse they feel entitled cause they wrote the book right) , the public fell inlove with him as Porche, and thus the public will Always defend Apo against them...someone needs to put them through a crash course on how fandoms work. especially BL fandoms. They can't just do whatever they want without thinking of the consequences first, now this whole thing might hurt their business, a lot of people are not going to buy their books, And the fact that Apo liked some tweets that were calling the authors out, makes me think there was no fair play here, they intentionally left him out (dumb mother fuckers) and instead of doing what most business savvy people do, which is to humble themselves and apologize, they attack Apo instead? And threaten fans? I mean ofcourse people will still support the show cause Apo is in it but the book sales will go down.
I thought they resolve the situation, wait are they really not going to reschedule the photoshoot with Apo......…
They cancelled the book cover but no more details have been released concerning the supposed rescheduled photoshoot.
but Be on cloud released a statement that basically states it's all Apps fault for not being free the day of the shoot. So we should "be understanding" with them. Like.. all they had to do was apologize now it seems they're just stroking the fire.
Wait, I took a break and I come back to find Be on cloud is being attacked? What? They tried to shift the blame for the book cover debacle on Apo?! What?!
So we know that Apo not being on the cover doesn't mean anything bad but only that Apo wasn't able to be there?…
Some people are saying it's cause of colorism, some even pointing out that the Singaporean article only had Kinn in the picture. This is so sus. Seeing all the mains casts names without Apo actually hurt.
