To date, since the conflict between Israel and Hamas broke out after a raid by the Islamic militant group on October 7, 2023, at least 2,400 people have been кιℓℓed and nearly 10,000 1njured. The Gaza Strip, causing the small piece of land in the Middle East to once again be engulfed in fire and tragedy, and the Palestinian people are the ones who suffer the greatest damage both physically and mentally.

In the face of w@r and Zionism increasing, people around the world cannot stand still, even in any field. Recently ARMYs discovered that Jungkook's dancer - Jake Kodish is a person who has this conception heavily and has a bad attitude towards many artists and vulnerable groups, especially, ARMYs. 

From what ARMYs have gathered regarding Jake Kodish, they are submitting a report as well as asking HYBE to remove him from Jungkook's project to avoid serious consequences:

Up to now, BTS or ARMYs have always strived to eliminate rαcιsm, religious discrimination, and w@r. In many different forms as well as taking advantage of their great influence, BTS and ARMYs have contributed a lot in spreading peace to humanity. Therefore, in the current context of the escalating w@r in the Gaza Strip, ARMYs cannot remain silent in the face of those with w@r-inciting ideology.

One of them recently targeted is Jake Kodish, Jungkook's back-up dancer in many of his projects from Seven to the upcoming Golden album. ARMYs discovered that Jake Kodish is a zionist. He gave endorsement and misinformation regarding the ongoing situation in Palestine, where the Palestinian people have been enduring invasions, colonisation, genocide, ethnic cleansing, and the commission of many international war crimes at the hands of the Israeli tyranny. All of these actions are unceptable.

Not only that, fans also pointed out many evidences that Jake Kodish has absurd and disgusting attitudes, his lines are very disgusting both with the artist and with the ARMY and vulnerable groups. It is shown through his statements or arguments with netizens via social networks. Typically as:

So, ARMYs are currently sending out warnings toward Jake Kodish infiltrating their space. Along with that, ARMYs also sent an email to HYBE to ask the company to remove people like Jake Kodish from Jungkook's upcoming project. ARMYs unanimously declare: "As a member of the BTS ARMY, we wish to emphasize that the fandom is diverse and pa̾s̾sionate, with a shared commitment to social justice and human rights. It has come to our attention that this individual is promoting views & showcasing behaviours that support actions contradictory to these principles...Our concern is not merely about expressing different opinions; it is about the guaranteed negative impact on the BTS members, this fandom, Hybe Corporation, the label’s artists, staff and their reputation. Such endorsements will place the company on the wrong side of history concerning this humanitarian crisis. It is also important to distance ourselves and denounce zionist propaganda, islamophobia and rαcιsm.

We request that HYBE address this matter promptly. We urge that Jake Kodish not be involved in any upcoming promotions, including those related to the Golden promotions with BTS’ Jungkook, to avoid his further antagonizing of BTS ARMYs, controversy and to ensure the company's reputation is upheld.

We understand the importance of freedom of expression and the diversity of opinions, but when these opinions promote harm, offense and in this case extinction, to individuals and communities, it becomes crucial to take action. We, the BTS ARMY, stand united in our support for human rights, including the rights and freedom to resist the invasion of their land, the brutalisation and attempts of literal extinction of the Palestinian people. We are outraged and strongly condemn these persons' actions, and we find it unacceptable to condone and a̾s̾sociate with zionists and modern-day nazis. We also ask that HYBE provide a public statement that clearly delineates your position on the ongoing conflict in the Middle East, emphasizing a commitment to justice, human rights, and a peaceful, equitable resolution to the issues faced by the Palestinian people. At this stage, silence is complicity.

We hope that Hybe Corporation and Bł₲ Ⱨł₮ Music, as a globally influential company and label, can address these concerns in a manner that respects these values."

A reminder that eliminating the Zionists and putting them out of work was part of the decolonization process. In addition, Jake Kodish's ̾s̾e̾xual hara̾s̾sment, unethical words and misconduct when talking about the war in the Gaza Strip are also factors that disqualify him from being a member of Jungkook's crew. 

ARMYs are currently paying close attention to this issue and hope HYBE will have a satisfactory response!
