Netizens are furious after an Italian news channel shows footage of BTS while talking about 'Burning Sun'

Posted by sl278837 pts Tuesday, July 2, 2019

An Italian news TV report is currently under controversy after showing footage of BTS while discussing the 'Burning Sun' scandal. 

A recent broadcast on Italian TV channel TG3 left many Korean netizens furious that the TV station used footage of BTS in a misguiding manner to discuss Burning Sun, which is irrelevant to the group. 

Many netizens are demanding that the TV station apologize. Considering that TG3 has reported on BTS and Kpop in the past, many people believe that this was done intentionally.

Some Korean netizen comments include: 

"Wow they're trash."

"They must be crazy."

"This makes me really angry."

"First Australia and now Italy..." 

Do you think it was intentional?

This is really xenophobia towards Korean artists. We're not naive. You don't have a sex scandal about Michael Jackson or R. Kelly but shows photos of Drake or have an article on Childish Gambino and talk about R Kelly or Michael Jackson in it. It's so obvious they're trying to make the music industry look terrible and get the biggest act tied to it somehow.
