BTS’ J-Hope is set to appear on Jay Park’s show, fans are mixed
On March 6, Star News reported that BTS’ J-Hope will be appearing as a guest on Jay Park’s show, Jay Park’s Drive.
However, fan reaction to the news was more than mixed, especially given the older rapper’s reputation.
The episode, which will star J-Hope, is slated to air on the evening of March 7, according to the media. This program is a program in which the artists talk about music and different stories together so that the audience can understand them better.
Jay Park’s show would therefore be J-hope’s first commercial since the release of his title On the Street.
The problem for many fans isn’t J-Hope’s presence on a show, but the fact that the show’s host is Jay Park. In fact, Jay Park has been involved in several controversies in the past, related to cultural appropriation Or even accusations of racism.
Not only that, Jay Park has previously labeled Kpop as “fabricated” and “phony,” leading some BTS fans to call him a hypocrite and accuse him of using the group.
Some fans, on the other hand, have claimed that J-Hope and Jungkook (in the past) should be blamed for hanging out with an “r.acist i.slamophobe” (Jay Park).
Over and beyond, Jungkook had been criticized for hanging out with Jay Park.
The phrases “ARMY APOLOGIZE TO JUNGKOOK” and “ARMY RESPECT JUNGKOOK” are trending on Twitter as fans claim Jungkook has been treated less favorably by fans for hanging out with Jay Park.
On the other hand, it is interesting to note the different reactions between international and Korean fans to J-Hope’s message on Jay Park’s show. In fact, Korean netizens responded with joy to the news.
