BTS member V is once again under fire as netizens revisit his past actions, labeling them as “problematic” amid recent controversies surrounding K-pop idols.
The renewed scrutiny follows the recent W Korea event, which drew criticism for its celebrity attendees. While several stars were called out, V has become a central target for online criticism.
A widely shared post cataloged actions that fans and netizens deemed controversial. Among the points raised were his recent collaborations with Coca-Cola and other brands, which some argue were insensitive given ongoing global issues, including the conflict in Gaza. The post also referenced V’s associations with figures considered controversial by the public, as well as other behaviors users found unusual.
In addition to written critiques, clips on TikTok and other platforms were circulated, some of which appeared to mock V directly, further fueling the backlash.
Netizens expressed harsh opinions, with threads and comments debating whether V’s actions reflected poor judgment or merely public misperception. As with many public figures attending high-profile events, V’s conduct has become a topic of intense discussion online.
While V has yet to respond publicly to the criticisms, the controversy highlights the ongoing pressures K-pop idols face, especially regarding their professional decisions and personal associations. Fans continue to monitor discussions closely, offering both defense and critique in equal measure.
V’s situation underscores the fine line celebrities must navigate in balancing endorsements, public perception, and global sensitivities. With BTS maintaining a high international profile, every action from its members is increasingly scrutinized, leaving no detail unnoticed by an attentive global audience.
