Big Bang’s Taeyang, why was he attacked by BTS fans?
In a special New’s Year’s interview with CNN, Taeyang was asked by interviewer Hanako Montgomery: “You and Big Bang are really pioneers when it comes to making K-pop a global sensation. How do you feel now, looking at how K-pop has really taken the world by storm?”
Taeyang answered, “Thankfully, we were able to open doors to global markets for many K-pop groups that came after us, and they can perform on world-famous stages. I wouldn’t say we pioneered that, but it feels great to see that our efforts have played a part in that.”
As a result, Taeyang’s social media accounts are now being spammed with angry comments, most of which stating that “BTS paved the way.”
1. That fandom is always throwing stones for no reason…
2. Isn’t this a group that wouldn’t exist without Big Bang?
3. Didn’t BTS copy Big Bang a lot???
4. Even though I’m not a fan of either, I know it’s very well-known that overseas BTS fans hate Big Bang
5. Isn’t Big Bang a K-pop group that deserves respect? Since there are seniors like TVXQ, Big Bang, and EXO, it’s only natural that there would be a global group called BTS
6. Are they acting like gangsters again??
7. They are arrogant and cruel, I just hope they leave K-pop
8. They copied everything from Big Bang, stole the stage layout, stole the album cover, stole the cover art, stole the music, even stole the fashion, but those fans lost their conscience. Without Big Bang, BTS would never have come out
9. Maybe they don’t even remember the title of the article Big Hit published in 2015
10. Seriously, would BTS exist without Big Bang? I guess not
