After the report was released, numerous netizens of 40s criticized NewJeans saying,"I don't remember Apple donating profits to our country... How can they accept an advertisement for an Apple phone?","They are totally patriotic-less artists and management companies.", "I'm disappointed in NewJeans," "No matter how much money they offer, it seems a bit wrong to accept an Apple advertisement like this," "I really hate NewJeans," "It looks like I need to start boycotting NewJeans from today." The reactions of these middle-aged netizens were screenshotted and shared in the discussion forum. It was suggested that these middle-aged netizens reacted this way because they treat their mobile phones as representative of their nationality. After reading, most netizens expressed extreme disbelief and left comments like "What are they thinking, I completely don't understand", "This is totally North Korean thinking...", "We are just Koreans, not Samsung people". "It seems that those middle-aged netizens must have bought Samsung stocks LOL", "It's not about nationality, but because of stocks...", "Korea indeed benefits a lot from Samsung, but there's no need to boycott them", "There's so much to be upset about", and more, all receiving fervent reactions.
