BTS’ Jungkook Faces Backlash for Supporting NewJeans
September 16, 2024 | 1145 Visits
The legendary global icon, Jungkook is reportedly facing backlash from HYBE employees for supporting his juniors.
On 14th September, Jungkook posted a picture of Bam, on the dog’s Instagram page, with a viral caption as fans cheered him on for his courageous stunt to speak for the weak. The caption, which read “Artists are not guilty” caught the eye of many especially after speculations led to the fact that the post was in support of NewJeans.
Despite their success, NewJeans have been under a series of controversies with their management. Jungkook’s ensuing post on 15th September read “Don’t Use them”. This further heightened deep conversations on the internet.
It later turned out that not everybody was happy with Jungkook’s so-called “support for NewJeans”. It has been alleged that HYBE employees were backlashing Jungkook for his actions on BLIND, an anonymous platform that allows verified employees to discuss issues.
A furious legion of local and global fans has since been creating a frenzy on the internet demanding the firing of these employees. Fans claim that Jungkook has the right to speak his mind and that the employees should be mindful of their approach and not “cut the hand that feeds them”. despite distancing itself from this issue, HYBE commented that Jungkook’s post meant that young artists should not be dragged into disputes or used as shields under any circumstances.
