Recently, a photo of BTS's Jungkook uploaded by a Japanese media outlet drew sharp criticism from netizens regarding his appearance. The photo, taken while Jungkook was attending an event for HUBLOT, was removed after widespread online protests.
BTS fans and other netizens expressed their disappointment with the photo, which they felt didn't reflect Jungkook's true visuals. Some social media users even expressed their disbelief at the image, stating, "WHO MADE THIS I'M CTFU" one Twitter user wrote, expressing their disbelief at the image.
Following the overwhelming backlash, the photo and post from media outlet Edgeline Tokyo were later removed. Some netizens speculated that this action may have been prompted by a request from Jungkook's agency, HYBE.
"HYBE asked them to delete the photo because he looks so ugly," another user tweeted, highlighting how the entertainment industry often reacts to public criticism. Netizens' reactions didn't stop there.
They began sharing screenshots of the deleted photo, expressing their annoyance and confusion as to why it was ever published. "@/edgelinetokyo, this Japanese media outlet deleted BTS Jungkook's picture," wrote one fan on Twitter. Criticism of Jungkook's appearance in the photo is nothing new.
As a K-Pop idol with a large fan base, Jungkook is often in the spotlight, and his every appearance is highly anticipated. However, in today's fast-paced world, high standards of beauty and appearance often become a burden for celebrities.
