Jikookers planning to harm 🐯 during their tour in Latin America. An online threat is still a threat, especially when it involves explicit references to someone’s d**th and a countdown. These statements are extremely alarming and should not be dismissed simply because they were made online. Don’t take DTs lightly.
Please use this template and attach all the evidence. Send to HYBE portal.

@HYBEOFFICIALtwt@BIGHIT_MUSIC@bts_bighit We urge you to treat this with the utmost seriousness, investigate without delay and take every necessary legal and protective measure to ensure BTS V’s safety.
BTS becomes the FIRST-EVER K-pop act in history to be nominated at the ARIA Awards.
— They are nominated for 'Most Popular International Artist' at the 40th ARIA Awards.
⛔️Death threats against a performing artist are a criminal matter, not fan discourse.
TikTok posts from @kingjj.kingpj and related accounts have published a countdown aimed at Kim Taehyung, stated that someone “will not make it out of Latin America alive,” identified Brazil as the “last destination,” instructed others to “stick to the plan,” and claimed “no one will know who it was.” The same posts invoke Yeontan and Grandma Kim and present harm to Taehyung as something Jimin and Jungkook would later be “grateful” for.
This is NOT shipping. IT IS A PUBLIC THREAT OF VIOLENCE against an identified person in connection with upcoming tour dates. It also endangers other members, staff, and concertgoers.

We request immediate action:
1. Preserve and investigate these TikTok posts under the category of threats to an artist’s safety.
2. Pursue legal action against the accounts responsible.
3. Increase security for Kim Taehyung and all members for the Latin America and Brazil dates.
4. Coordinate with venues, ticketing partners, and local authorities so individuals who post violent plans while holding tickets can be identified and denied entry.
Armys & Taehyung fans: report the original posts on TikTok and submit evidence through HYBE’s official Artist Rights Violation portal, using the “Threats to Artist’s Safety” category:
