A nuestra comunidad y al público en general:
En BoraMx alzamos la voz de manera clara y contundente frente a los actos de discriminación y racismo casual presentados recientemente en @TheWoodyShow de @iHeartRadio.
Durante dicha emisión, los locutores recurrieron a burlas explícitas sobre la identidad y los nombres de artistas surcoreanos, acompañadas de adjetivos despectivos dirigidos hacia la audiencia que los apoya. Este tipo de conductas no solo demuestra una profunda falta de profesionalismo y rigor periodístico, sino que perpetúa un patrón de xenofobia hacia los artistas de origen asiático en la industria del entretenimiento occidental.
Ridiculizar la cultura, el idioma o los nombres de una persona no es una postura irreverente ni graciosa; es una muestra de ignorancia y de falta de recursos comunicativos. La libertad de expresión no es un cheque en blanco para vulnerar la dignidad de ningún grupo ni para promover estereotipos denigrantes.
Hacemos un llamado a la cadena @iHeartRadio para que revise los estándares éticos de sus producciones y ofrezca una postura pública ante estos hechos. Como fanbase, continuaremos defendiendo el respeto mutuo, la diversidad cultural y un espacio libre de odio para todos.
#RespectBTS #StopAsianHate
Lmao, the The Woody Show thing @iHeartRadio is freaking hilarious. Like, what do you mean? A short set, terrible audio, ARMYs got pissed, and you couldn’t handle it? So you turned around and started biting back?
You’re literally relying on BTS and ARMYs to sell tickets and pull views. Do you not see that we’re the biggest force driving the hype for the show?
I can understand calling out a few overly aggressive people, but calling all of us “losers,” telling fans to “eat sh1t” or “shove it,” and then crossing the line into racism/discrimination is a whole different story.
I guess it’s goodbye to iHeartRadio, then. And hopefully we never meet again. Honestly, I hope BTS never agrees to work with these ungrateful people again 🙄
Imagine being a company as big as @iHeartRadio and somehow thinking mocking your own audience and dragging an artist who had NOTHING to do with your technical failures was a good look.
@TheWoodyShow - Jungkook’s name is not your punchline. He travelled for hours, showed up, performed professionally and did his job. Your event’s technical issues have absolutely nothing to do with him.
And calling the very people who paid, attended and supported your event “losers”? Bold choice. 🙃
@iHeartRadio , @TheWoodyShow - this isn’t something you get to brush off with silence or a generic PR response.
We expect accountability: a public acknowledgment of what was said, a clear apology to Jungkook and BTS, and an apology to the ARMYs who were disrespected.
You invited the audience. You took their money. You owe them basic respect.
Now own it.
Apologies to BTS JUNGKOOK and ARMY
برنامج The Woody Show، وهو برنامج تابع لـ iHeartRadio ويُبث على أكثر من 30 محطة في أنحاء الولايات المتحدة، يسخر من اسم جونغكوك (مايدري كيف ينطق اسمه 🙂) ويصف الآرمي بالفاشلين على الهواء مباشرة بسبب التعليقات السخيفة المتعلقة بحفل IHEART.... 💀💀💀

bts literally spent 14hrs to attend iheartradio festival despite being on a break, they were headliners yet the got less performance time, the camera work was crap and despite everything they were respectful only for some random white man to mock jungkook's name and insult armys
Se não sabem ouvir críticas do próprio evento merda então nem deveria se dar ao trabalho de "trabalhar" com isso. Queria do fundo da alma que eles nunca mais pisassem nesse fim de mundo.
We demand an apology to BTS and ARMY
@TheWoodyShow
bts flew 11 hours amidst a brutal tour schedule, running on absolute exhaustion, just to give iheart radio a top-tier performance and boost their viewership numbers, only for those ignorant hosts to insult them and army. they better issue a formal apology to bts and army.
This is totally unacceptable @iHeartRadio and deserves immediate apology and accountability for using racist and xenophobic language, mocking an entire community of fans and a total lack of respect for BTS. This needs immediate action.
Nojo desse porco nojento. Isso aqui é racismo. Primeiro excluiram o Hoseok e n corrigiram, e agora isso.
@iHeartRadio espero que o bts nunca volte pra essa espelunca de show ou seja la o que.

Send the clip, exact quotes, timestamps and broadcast date. Spell out the racism and any sexist remarks. Ask what iHeartMedia is going to do about it, request the show be taken off air.
We can demand accountability without giving him the engagement he wants.
imagine being so deeply unfunny that your response to people criticizing the sound and engineering of a concert is to tell a largely female fandom to “suck it,” call them losers and intentionally butcher a member’s name which is two syllables and actually very easy to pronounce. first off, what the hell did bts do to be insulted and disrespected?? like they could’ve addressed the actual criticism, disagreed and moved on, but instead reached for misogyny and racialized mockery bc women being passionate about something is still treated as inherently stupid and a non-westernized name is apparently still an acceptable punchline.
and tell me why this energy ALWAYS comes from the most unfuckable creatures with podcasts that can’t even crack 1k views.
.@TheWoodyShow Disagreeing with army's criticism of the iHeartRadio Music Festival does NOT justify racism, xenophobia, personal attacks, or mocking jungkook’s name.
We vehemently condemn these remarks and demand a sincere public apology to Jungkook and BTS
So this @iHeartRadio host is already under an active lawsuit from a former co-host claiming gender- and age-based discrimination. One of her claims is he was allowed to forego mandatory anti-discrimination training.
And this week he made racist and xenophobic remarks on air.
🚨 EXIGIMOS UM PEDIDO DE DESCULPAS DA IHEARTRADIO PELO DESCASO OCORRIDO DURANTE A APRESENTAÇÃO DO BTS E DOS APRESENTADORES DO THE WOODY SHOW PELA FORMA DESRESPEITOSA COMO TRATARAM O BTS E O ARMY.
We demand an apology to BTS and ARMY @TheWoodyShow
