HYBE Employee Criticizes BTS’ Jungkook For Supporting NewJeans, Fans React Strongly

BTS’ Jungkook has been in the news since yesterday after his post supporting NewJeans went viral.

Following his viral post saying ‘Artists are not guilty’ and ‘Do not use them,’ BIGHIT MUSIC confirmed that Jungkook made the post with the idea that artists should not be used as shields.

After that, several posts were shared on the platform Blind by a HYBE employee, making fun of him and calling him an ‘idiot.’

ARMYs suspect a smear campaign against HYBE after Jungkook’s support for NewJeans, which was followed by a sudden leak of his personal real estate information. The information revealed that his property’s market value had increased by 10 billion won.

On the platform Blind, the HYBE employee slammed Jungkook saying, “For some reason, I feel even more bitter… what was I even working for..sigh”, “We are listening to the story of the biggest idiot? Haha.”

The HYBE staff member made multiple insulting comments toward the 3D singer, like “He plans on killing the rest of us,” “Wow, this is really going to ruin the company,” “Given (Jungkook’s) behavior toward the HYBE staff in general, it’s easy to see why.”

The employee further added, “Do you listen to the most stubborn person in the company?” and “Go check how this situation is being interpreted and how it could lead to more controversy, it is not good to us (HYBE).”

ARMYs are furious that an employee is insulting one of the biggest artists of the agency. They are demanding an apology from HYBE and urging them to take appropriate action against the employee.

Fans have been trending multiple tags to show their support for the BTS maknae.
