BTS With Girls – Try Not To Laugh 😅 https://youtu.be/PsSN6jNuoek
RM held a speech for the Van Fleet Award where he mentioned the sacrifices of the Korean and American soldiers during the Korean War
This angered the Chinese netizens who criticized BTS for being insensitive
The negative reactions were so strong that Samsung, FILA and Hyundai China removed their BTS related products and posts
However, China’s Foreign Affairs Deputy Director spoke up about this saying that we should promote friendship, love and peace:
“I want to say that we should learn from history, look towards the future, value love and peace, promote friendship and these should be our common goals”
Despite that, the netizen’s reactions still remained negative
