The Konbat Konundrum Kontinues!




  The iKonics vs Changjos fandom color battle can finally be put to rest as a fan uploaded a picture of a powered konbat, confirming that it, along with iKons fandom color, is in fact red. Unfortunately where that war left off, another one is picking up due to the fact that red (pearl red to be specific) is the fandom color of legendary SM group, DBSK.

Cassiopeia "red ocean"


There's no way around this one; they are extremely similar shades of red. Similarly to Changjo's, Cassiopeia are now pleading for YG Entertainment to change iKon's fandom color out of respect, and there is even a petition going around, gathering support on the issue.

     Some iKonics however, are branding Cassiopeia as hypocrites because before red was the fandom color of TVXQ, it belonged to YG duo, JinuSean.




     Now I've seen a lot of people making fun of Cassiopeia, and saying the whole petition idea is a bit ridiculous but I have to give them props for having the right idea. If they really want iKon's color changed, trying to get the attention of YG Entertainment is their bet best. Fighting with iKonics and bashing iKon isn't going to do much in terms of actual progress. I would even go further and say they should be trying to get SM Entertainment's attention as well. Getting SME involved would allow for a possible company to company negotiation which, in all honestly, would be much more powerful then a petition  sign by some people on the internet. Just like I said in my other post however, I don't think YGE will be willing to change now, seeing as merchandise has already been produced and distributed. 

Thoughts?
