• "Song Kang? No way" — Instagram star allegedly copying Song Kang resurfaces once more

    Song Kang is gaining quite a lot of attention but for different reason . 

    On February 10, a post surfaced on the popular Korean forum Nate Pann, criticizing an Instagram star for attempting to imitate the style of actor Song Kang.

    The post, titled “Instagrammer Criticized for Imitating Song Kang,” included several photos of an Instagram influencer who is allegedly gaining followers by mimicking Song Kang’s style.

    The influencer has been creating reels with a superpower theme, using the background music from “My Demon” OSTs, similar to Song Kang. Despite using Song Kang as a hashtag and imitating his style, the influencer claims he doesn’t resemble Song Kang.

    The post quickly gained traction, amassing around 100,000 views in just a day. Many netizens have voiced their criticism in the comments section.

    Some of the top comments include:

    “Why post a picture of Jeon Hyun Moo? Show us the real Song Kang look-alike.”

    “He resembles Park Gun Wook more.”

    “All his reels feature ‘My Demon’ songs and him performing superpowers. Despite requests to stop, he continues because some find him entertaining. But I think more people are uncomfortable.”

    “He oddly resembles Pepe the frog.”

    “Song Kang? More like Lee Min Ho + Hee Doo.”

    “Song Kang? No way. Song Kang is like an innocent puppy, while this person has beady eyes, making him look more like Lee Min Ho. His hairstyle is supposedly similar, but it’s laughable.”

    On November 22, Jimin was honored with the Fan’s Choice of the Year award at the 2024 MAMA AWARDS JAPAN, held at the Kyocera Dome in Osaka, Japan. This marks a huge milestone in his career, especially considering his ongoing military service.

    Jimin made history as the first solo artist to win the Fan’s Choice of the Year award, a category that BTS had dominated for six years since its debut in 2018.

    In addition to this achievement, Jimin also took home the Fan’s Choice Grand Prize, making him a two-time winner at this year’s awards.

    Although Jimin couldn't attend the ceremony due to his military service, his name was met with loud cheers from fans when announced.

    His incredible win continues to prove his global influence as a solo artist. Jimin had also won Best Male Artist at the 2023 MAMA AWARDS, marking back-to-back wins at the event.

    The MAMA AWARDS praised Jimin for his groundbreaking achievements, saying, “As the first K-pop solo artist to reach 4 billion streams and set the longest-running #1 record for a Korean artist, Jimin has proven his influence as a world-class artist and global pop star.”

    Jimin's win also made him the first solo artist to claim a grand prize at the MAMA AWARDS in 10 years, with his achievement sparking excitement worldwide.

    On X (formerly Twitter), the hashtag “CONGRATULATIONS JIMIN” topped the trends, while “우리지민이상받았네” (Our Jimin Got the Award) reached the #1 spot in Korea.

    Jimin’s ongoing success continues to shine even during his military service. He was also recently named Best K-pop at the 2024 MTV Europe Music Awards and continues to be recognized for his charitable efforts, including a recent donation of 100 million KRW to the National Defense Soldier and Veteran Love Fund.
