GFRIEND and BTS fans attack the Simon Wiesenthal Center for calling out their kpop favorites
Shame on @BigHitEnt as another of its k-pop groups embrace #Nazi symbols. SWC efforts to educate company useless then apology useless now. Knowingly denigrate 6 million Jews murdered in WWII Nazi Holocaust; boosts today’s racist neo-Nazis.https://t.co/Kud0EVooGy

-- The Simon Wiesenthal Center called out Big Hit Entertainment after Sowon (aka "Kitler") a member of kpop girl group GFRIEND shared pictures of herself cozying up to a mannequin dressed as a Nazi soldier.
-- GFRIEND are under Source Music, a subsidiary of Big Hit, home of kpop superstars BTS. In 2018 the Simon Wiesenthal Center called for BTS to apologize for wearing a Nazi-style hat for a photo shoot.
-- Buddies and ARMY viciously responded to the tweet, insulting and reporting the Jewish human rights group's account.
TW: Antisemitism, homophobia

No, SHAME on you for not knowing the real story of what happened instead of believing inaccurate information from unreliable Kpop sources..The company also had acknowledged and apologized publicly but I guess you haven't covered that part 🙄 https://t.co/lQucaDbGmz

A verified account but seriously shame on you. U didn't even read the whole story behind maybe. You just being ignorant without knowing the real fact. Normalize to read a whole story and search for a right information before judging something. Stop embarrassing urself like this! https://t.co/kcXSlCwLVC
