BTS fans apologize for the irrational behavior of a minority of the fanbase

BTS fans apologized for the behavior of a minor part of their fanbase.

The trot singer Hong Jin Young released a mini album recently called 'HwaYangYeonHwa', with title song "Thumbs Up". A few BTS fans took serious offense at this and claimed she was plagiarizing BTS' album, even though the title is actually a saying, there is a very famous Chinese movie of the same title, and there was actually a Korean album before even BTS by Lee Seung Hwan.

When this came to light to others, most of the ARMY fandom were quick to apologize in stead for the actions of the others in the fandom. Even BTS themselves seemed to take note of the situation and tweeted a few days ago, "Thumbs thumbs up, thumbs thumbs up. Jinyoung-noona's song is thumbs up! Let's listen to it together #ThumbsUp" with a photo:



What do you think of the situation?
