I think korea should allow *anyone* that has been (proven beyond doubt) lied about, false reporting, fake news, whatever you want to call it, and allow them to sue the hell out of news companies. Bet you'd see 99.9% truth from that point forward...

JTBC TRESPASSED into BH's building illegaly, filmed areas they should have no access to, violated BTS' privacy and spread defamatory news. Army just wants JTBC to apologize. If that doesn't happen, K-Army will boycott. Simple.
