How BTS's Jin called out people doing chart manipulation and asked them to do music in an honest way

Here is a history lesson or a rewind if you will. Back in November 2018 for the MGA (MBC Plus x Genie Music Awards) 2018, BTS's Jin was so stunning. He even went viral because of his jaw-dropping visuals in the fancams on the day.


At the award show, he wore a white long-sleeve with a dollar sign on it, why?


The same white shirt was worn by punk band- Dead Kennedy as they protested the corrupt music industry and musicians who sell out or do payola. 

As we all know, BTS is active in pursuing fairness, not just in the Music Industry. And seeing this brave gentleman wearing that white shirt made me so proud, directly criticizing those people who cheated and still cheating just to win.  

His savageness is on another level; he would indeed put you in your place. Remember his speech during MAMA 2019? 


"I want to thank our ARMYs so much. We put our hard efforts into making our songs, and we will bring good song next year as well. There are many artists and people making songs as well, I hope the world will come when all of those songs will be recognized and be listened to a lot. There are methods of cheating but wouldn't it be better to make music with more honest ways? I hope the time will come when everyone makes good music and listen to good music." 

Please say it louder to the people at the back! This was really directed to those people who did chart manipulation.

The shade is on another level, salute to this man who called them out with respect and asked them politely to make music in an honest way. 


Seokjin's bold statement received so much attention and even appreciation from fans and even from his co-artist.
