BTS fans express anger over their label mistakenly promoting V's impersonator
BIGHIT MUSIC, the agency behind global sensation BTS, has recently found itself in hot water with fans after promoting a YouTube account impersonating BTS member V. The controversy began when V's original YouTube topic channel, boasting around two million subscribers, was inexplicably deleted. Fans rallied to have the channel restored, successfully bringing it back to its rightful place as the official topic on the BANGTANTV YouTube channel.
However, in the midst of this debacle, an impersonation account emerged, capitalizing on the void left by V's original channel. Despite not being affiliated with BIGHIT MUSIC, this unauthorized channel gained traction, especially after being inadvertently promoted by the label through their official social media accounts. What began with a few hundred subscribers skyrocketed to over 200,000, sparking outrage among fans who felt that V was being neglected and poorly treated by his own agency.
Despite fan demands to rectify the situation and remove the promotion of the impersonation account, BIGHIT MUSIC has remained silent on the matter, leaving fans feeling disillusioned and frustrated. Many view this incident as part of a larger pattern of mismanagement and neglect of V's career by the agency.
The backlash from fans has been palpable, with some expressing their disappointment and criticism of BIGHIT MUSIC's handling of the situation. As the controversy continues to simmer, fans await a response from the agency, hoping for accountability and proper treatment of BTS members, including V, in the future.
