Namjoon in his speech today
"Peruvians! You are truly the best.
I’m going to talk about the post I wrote yesterday, and I’ll speak in Korean.
The post I wrote yesterday wasn’t just about America or Peru.Similar things have happened in Europe and the United States, and they’ve actually been happening for a long time. They can happen in Asia, too.
I know very well that many of you try not to approach us, and even when you see us on the street, you pretend not to recognize us.
But using drones or pointing lasers at us is actually not okay.
In Europe, he (Taehyung) was the one who said it, but here, I’ll say it myself.
When have we ever divided people based on their nationality or continent?
Under the term ARMY, and under the term BTS, we are all the same people.
I’d like you to ignore those who say strange things and for us to keep this love alive.
Some people will only hear what they want to hear and see what they want to see.
But I will continue to believe that there are so many more amazing and lovely ARMYs out there. And that goes for Peru, too!
No matter how I speak about this, I know some people will only hear what they want to hear.
Even so, I know there are so many wonderful and very, very beautiful ARMYs out there.
Thank you so much "
🐨: The text I wrote yesterday isn’t just about Peru, in Latin America, it was something that also happened in Europe, in the United States, in Asia it can happen too and it’s something that happens often. I know there are a lot of locals who try to come to the hotel, but well, making a drone or doing it with a laser is actually an incorrect act in Europe, Taehyung was the one who said it but here I’m saying it, when have we differentiated people by nationalities? Within the term ARMY, within the term BTS, we’re all the same people, I’d like you to ignore those people who say those weird things and that we keep maintaining that love, even though I speak like this I know some are going to hear only what they want to hear but I know there are amazing ARMYs and very very beautiful”.

ph armys, please lang. sobrang tagal nating hinintay na makabalik sila, kaya sana we can respect yung personal time and privacy nila. no team airport, stalking, or invading their personal space, please. let's make their stay here a happy experience 🥺🙏
The amount of absolute madness going on in Lima is insane 🤦♀️
• Namjoon & Jungkook’s car swarmed and blocked outside the hotel after going out—people screaming at them to roll down the windows
• Randoms livestreaming the mess for clout & money
• Crowds still camping, singing, & screaming outside even AFTER the drone show ended
• Lasers being pointed straight at hotel windows
• AND airport staff leaking security check footage?!
As much as we appreciate the warm welcome and all the effort from true Peruvian ARMYs & local authorities, BTS’s experience this time has hit rock bottom. I hate to say it, but this might genuinely be the first and LAST time they ever hold a concert there.
Honestly, this might even affect the rest of the South American tour. Fans in the upcoming countries, PLEASE just listen to Namjoon’s plea! 🙏💔
MIND U ALL HE ASKED OF U BRAINLESS FUCKS WAS TO HAVE SOME BASIC RESPECT AND HUMAN DECENCY FOR HIM, HIS STAFF, AND THE OTHER PEOPLE IN THE HOTEL THAT YALL BITCHES ARE MOBBING AND BEING LOUD ASF AT.
