It seems that some ARMYs, in their eagerness and fervor to be close to their favorite group, forcibly imposed themselves by breaching BTS's privacy and personal space.
A picture of Jimin at the airport in Taiwan shows that the crowd shoved and pushed too vigorously in their excitement, which led the idol to trip and fall. SUGA and Jin also almost fell from all the milling from fans who were eager for a closer look at BTS.
The actions of these ARMYs was enough to compel BigHit to post an official notice on Twitter, requesting fans to follow etiquette, watch out for their own and the boys' safety, and also respect BTS for the people they are.
Take a look at the full notice below.
