BTS Fans Urge HYBE To Respect Jimin, Shut Down Controversial “Nickname”
본문
BTS fans are calling for HYBE to respect Jimin, following the release of a behind-the-scenes video.
Today, BTS’s BANGTANTV YouTube channel uploaded a new “EPISODE” from the 76th United Nations General Assembly (UNGA). In September, BTS attended the event as speakers and special presidential envoys for President Moon Jae In.
A subtitle in the video is now causing a stir among both K-ARMY (BTS’s Korean fans) and I-ARMY (BTS’s international fans). In this scene, the nickname “Chicken Jimin” (“닭지민” or “Dalg Jimin“) was included.
While it’s not uncommon for HYBE to use BTS’s nicknames in subtitles, this particular nickname has unpleasant origins. Jimin’s anti-fans have been known to use “Chicken Jimin” to disparage the star online.
Sorry to being drama to your tl, but this is outrageous. K-PJMs are furious about this, and rightfully so.
Instead of putting '박지민' (P@rk J1m1n) in the subtitles, HYBE put '닭지민' instead which basically means ch1cken J1m1n and is used in really horrid anti blogs against him. https://t.co/jEeoGpUBti— hourly jimin (@hourlyjimin) October 28, 2021
Apparently on the new Bangtan Bomb, the subtitles in Korean provided by HYBE put in the subtittles instead of
’s name, a nickname used by an/tis and h@te blogs. We want the subtitles fixed and the employee repreended.

As such, ARMY is now trending “HYBE RESPECT JIMIN” to express their frustration, in the hopes of correcting the subtitle and preventing “Chicken Jimin” from appearing in future BTS content.
Who needs an a/nti when Hybe staff do exist. Please do your job responsibly and stop feeding all the a/ntis with your irresponsible subtitles. Fix or remove this video, you are supposed to be protecting your artist and not mocking their names. HYBE RESPECT JIMIN.@HYBEOFFICIALtwt

How could a company do such a thing to their own artist? Using a term that is used by his antis? This isn’t the first time. Hybe do someone about this. And respect your artist.
