Recently, a BTS fan account on Instagram posted a video of Jin during his private schedule while having a meal with his father at a restaurant. The video, reportedly taken by someone who didn’t even recognize Jin initially, spread rapidly across social media platforms.

As the video started getting more attention, Jin’s brother stepped in to protect his father’s privacy. He left a comment under the post, asking the OP (Original Poster) to delete the video.

ARMYs go to work quickly, spreading awareness about Jin’s brother’s request. The OP eventually removed the post, and even though it was reshared by ARMYs on other social media platforms, most of them took it down as well.

Seokjin’s brother is asking whoever filmed Jin to delete the video because he doesn’t want their father’s images to spread. So, to everyone who shared it, please delete it.

Let’s respect their privacy! https://t.co/NikRsPRgsI pic.twitter.com/xK84Ri02Du

However, some fans have criticized the OP for publicizing Jin’s private moment in the first place.

Seokjin’s brother having to ask for people to respect his parents’ privacy for y’all to decide to delete and stop circulating the video… everyone should know their place as a fan. If Seokjin wanted you to see/record him he’d start a live on weverse. He deserves a normal life too

yall need to leave the boys alone when they have personal time. who in their right mind thought it'd be ok to film his father, esp knowing that seokjin has taken great pains to keep his parents out of the spotlight. whoever filmed this can fuck right off https://t.co/GIsH9ZmUEc

seokjin's brother asked people to delete video with jin and their father and I feel so embarrassed for ppl who posted and shared that. give them at least a modicum of privacy and respect. if not even for jin, at least for his father.
