While Jungkook celebrates the success of ‘ARIRANG’ by honoring his fans, a small share changed everything.
By sharing the choreography of dancer @nyoung⚫2, the BTS member did not expect to trigger a wave of harsh criticism, plunging the idol and the creator into a blazing debate about online responsibility.
Since the release of the group’s comeback album, ‘ARIRANG,’ he regularly interacts with his fans and shares videos related to the project. In this vein, he reposts a video of a South Korean dancer, known as @nyoung⚫2, performing a choreography to the song ‘Hooligan.’
Quickly, the video attracts attention on the platform. While the performance receives positive feedback, some internet users criticize the dancer’s outfit, which they deem too “revealing.” Negative comments accumulate under the post and spread on X. Facing the situation, the dancer later explains that she receives hateful messages after her video was shared.
This story reignites online debates about the responsibility of public figures. Some internet users believe that artists followed by a large audience should be cautious about the content they promote. According to them, strong visibility can attract too much attention to a creator and provoke excessive reactions, sometimes leading to harassment.
But many fans quickly come to Jungkook’s defense. They point out that he cannot be held responsible for the behavior of internet users after his shares. They also explain that his posts mainly serve to support fans and showcase their creativity. They emphasize that he cannot control the reactions of millions of people online, nor the consequences that follow.
Meanwhile, other fans specify that the attacks against the dancer do not directly come from Jungkook’s actions. They believe he simply uses his platforms to share content related to his songs and engage with his audience. They argue that the negative reactions observed online cannot be attributed to him, and it is unfair to hold him responsible for the behavior of other internet users.
