⛔️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:

Technical failures & poor audio mixing during BTS set at #iHeartFestival2026 were unacceptable. Artists faced mic & in-ear issues, and the livestream sound was muffled. @johnsykes@TomPoleman@iHeartFestival owe BTS and ARMY an apology for this lack of respect. 🛑👇

@iHeartRadio It is unacceptable that j-hope was left out. BTS has 7 members, and every single one of them deserves the same respect and recognition. We expect better professionalism and accountability.
BTS IS SEVEN
RESPECT J-HOPE

Il Governo fa tornare "sostanza stupefacente" una medicina: il CBD. In un tratto di penna, un calcio in bocca ai malati e alla scienza. Dobbiamo impedirlo. https://t.co/LRcWo3k9T1
DAI, SIMULIAMO UNA VIOLENZA SESSUALE 🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶
Io mi vergogno per quelli che lavorano a questa trasmissione che ancora tengono dentro, in tv, profumatamente pagata, gente del genere.
