Following a recent dispute involving an impersonation issue, BTS ARMY is asking NCT's fans to apologize.
An individual suspected to be either an NCTzen (a fan of NCT) or a supporter of Min Heejin reportedly pretended to be a BTS ARMY member in order to plan a demonstration against BTS member Suga, said South Korean news portal Money Today.
Calling for his departure from the group due to a recent drinking and driving incident, the demonstration consisted in delivering trucks and funeral wreaths to HYBE headquarters and Suga's house.
When the email address of the organizer was inadvertently revealed during protest fundraising, suspicions developed. The organizer denied being an NCT fan, however it was found that they had attended NCT127 fan gatherings, which call for significant fan interaction including record purchases.
Reacting to this disclosure, BTS ARMY has gone to social media demanding responsibility from the NCT fans with hashtags like "NCTZEN APOLOGIZE TO YOONGi" and "NCTZEN APOLOGIZE TO ARMY."
The episode has added to the continuous scrutiny of Suga, who has been singled out by anti-fans after his participation in the recent dispute. Usually a sign of grief in Korean society, the funeral wreaths were utilized in the demonstration to convey dissatisfaction and demand Suga's exit from BTS.
