Letting the company apologize for him and absolve Suga himself of any blame is so insincere. This did undo all the excuses their fans were making though, can't believe all the nonsense they were spouting. I feel for the young black woman who was doxxed for reposting the ONTD post on Twitter sfm.

Yeah, the last post about this ended up on r/kpop so pink_romantics posted a screenshot and it spread across Twitter. Both her and thepophub have had their personal info and pictures spread for mentioning this, it's disturbing. Their excuse seems to be that they've both stoked the flames and proven they're antis by posting about BTS's fuckups before so anything's fair game.

tbh it's not even the first time. Twitter Army have a long history of harrassing and doxxing black fans. BuzzFeed even wrote a damn article about it.

I believe she's gone private after this ordeal. Unfortunately I've seen people incidentally spread her pics by qrt the doxxers to criticize them but at the moment it's probably best to just report them if you see them.

Re-him letting the company apologize on his behalf, did you see that bit from his livestream where he was talking about how he's a ~badass mastermind laying "traps" for his haters? lmao it's so funny because the minute shit got heated, he ran and his behind his company and said he didn't produce the track. He is the definition of all bark, no bite.

According to Yoongi’s VLive, “What do you think?” and “Daechwita” are traps to bait. 😂 I think he’s doing house cleaning. ++ @BTS_twt pic.twitter.com/V96VhLXN7s

it seems the trap backfired on him...but he is right "some people never learn", his fandom the biggest example.
