Even on X, netizens were upset about the tag, with many getting tired of the BTS members being around those deemed “Problematic.”
I might get hate for saying this. But I'ma say it anyways. I really hope that RM does not collaborate with diplo. Diplo is constantly in legal trouble for SA. I hope BTS does research on artists and producers more. Because having Charlie around is already pushing it. pic.twitter.com/bOJoZcz5ek
