Legitimately can not believe that anyone would be more worried about Hybe than Kakao. Kakao has an actual monopoly, with executives actively being arrested for corruption and illegal business practices every other month. They own streaming platforms, networks, music labels, and that's only a tiny fraction of it because Kakao is a conglomerate with branches in many different industries - they even have multiple CEOs because of the size and range of industries they operate in. I read the other day that Kakao is being accused of (illegally) forcing korean labels not affiliated with them in to unfair streaming contracts. That is what a company with a monopoly does. SM fans should be worried, but not about Hybe.

The worry is unnecessary coz Hybe wont be the majority shareholders. Current condition is:
Kakao - 20.76%
Kakao Ent - 19.11%
Hybe - 12.6%
Treasury Stock - 1.65%
Others - 45.9%
All together Kakao owns 39.87%, the largest but still not the majority. Back then when Hybe let go the shares to Kakao (which LSM sold to Hybe earlier on), it seems Hybe didnt let go all of it. Smart (read it as sneaky) business decision. One of the reason until now Kakao is still not the majority shareholders, making it difficult for Kakao to make changes internally. Unless they get help from Hybe to be hand in hand to get votes as majority. Thats why i said sneaky Hybe. In directly they "can hold Kakao by their throat". A lot of "undisclosed deals" that we do not know. For sure Hybe is the upper hand in this scenario. Thats why i said "sneaky". Well, thats how the corporate world runs

In my opinion its like so called top class gets scared when a underdog reach their level or even overtakes them. About having similar music is a lie if we talk about hybe groups there is no similarity between bighit artists - pledis or enhypen or LE SSERAFIM - new jeans. All have their own styles. Moreover the producers of sm will also work with sm artist I believe, the hybe producers will not just go and acquire all the groups like infinity stones lol...
