Popular Western Artist Faces Backlash for Disrespecting BTS’s Jungkook
Jungkook faces backlash after bbno$ sponsors his TikTok dance video
Jungkook has been active on social media again, thrilling ARMY with his recent TikTok dance covers. The BTS star recently joined the viral “Two” dance challenge, showing off his moves to the hit song by Canadian artist bbno$.
The “Two” challenge video quickly caught bbno$’s attention, who responded with a comment and even posted his own video reacting to Jungkook’s dance.
The controversy began when bbno$ reposted Jungkook’s video as part of a sponsored post. Some fans accused him of “using” Jungkook’s fame for personal gain without genuine interest.
Fans quickly reacted on Twitter:
Sorry but this is disrespectful… sharing JungKook post is ok but using it as an ad without his consent is something else.
Adding to that, he’s doing too much using Jk’s name everyday to promote himself but didn’t share once any JK or BTS’s song to return the favor.

This is what happens when we give a random dork their minute of fame for mentioning BTS. This guy’s been a weirdo from the start, and everyone’s been laughing at his jokes. And these people are just here to take advantage of the situation.

As the situation unfolded, other fans defended bbno$, saying he has every right to promote his own song and that Jungkook’s post naturally benefits him financially.
“Return the favor”…???
Jungkook didn’t dance to his song in return for a favor…OMG you guys should stop harassing everyone who comes into contact with Jungkook…
you harass them and call their songs trash and then wonder why they call you toxic fans

Idec about bbnos like that, but y’all clearly don’t know how he moves…he spam posts like this all the time, hopping on trends to promote his music. And why are y’all trying to police how he acts with the popularity of his own song?

Who gaf? Jungkook is a global pop star. Of course he’ll try to milk it. Some of you are so delusional that you’ve no idea how the world operates outside of twitter. Btw this isn’t harming . Stop your nitpicking. It’s been days now.
