BTS‘s Jungkook recently showed support for the girl group NewJeans, and his agency stepped in to explain his message.
On the 14th, Jungkook shared a picture of his dog on his unofficial social media account with the message, “Artists are not guilty.” He followed up with another post saying, “Don’t use them.”
Fans quickly noticed that Jungkook included five heart emojis in blue, pink, yellow, green, and purple — the colors representing the members of NewJeans: Minji (blue), Hanni (pink), Danielle (yellow), Haerin (green), and Hyein (purple).
BigHit Music addressed the situation, saying, “Jungkook posted this because he believes young artists should not be dragged into conflicts or used as shields.”
This comes after NewJeans held an emergency live broadcast on the 11th, expressing concerns over the dismissal of ADOR’s former CEO Min Hee Jin, and calling for HYBE to restore ADOR to its original state by the 25th.
