BTS — the group currently making a stop in LA — is in the middle of their world tour 'ARIRANG' at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles. Following their two concerts on the 1st and 2nd (local time), the group will return to the stage on the 5th and 6th. During their first two nights back in LA with BTS after seven years, Jin completely captivated the 70,000 fans in attendance with his extremely stable live vocals and impressive stage presence.
Known for his clear, bright, and resonant voice, often described as the "Silver Voice," Jin heated up the atmosphere at the concert with outstanding performances featuring his excellent live singing. His explosive energy on stage not only received an enthusiastic response from fans in attendance but also took the energy of the concert to an all-time high.
While Jin was pαѕѕionately giving his all to fans on stage, some inconsiderate fans caused a situation that affected both him and ARMY, who are now furious!
Specifically, a clip currently spreading rapidly on Twitter captured the moment Jin was performing "Fake Love" during the second concert night in LA when he was suddenly repeatedly sprayed with water guns by some au∂ιєnce members. Notably, the streams of water continued to be directed at Jin even while he was immersed in singing and interacting with fans.
After finishing his singing line, it seemed that being continuously sprayed with water had made the idol uncomfortable. While still professionally hyping up the au∂ιєnce, Jin gestured toward the two girls with his thumb moving from side to side, seemingly reminding them that they needed to stop. At least afterward, the two girls listened and did not intentionally continue the disturbance.
However, ARMY still could not accept what they considered disrespectful behavior toward Jin, regardless of whether their original intention was simply to interact with their idol or whether there was genuinely malicious intent behind it. Some fans even captured images of the two girls at the show that day and called on BigHit Music and SoFi Stadium to intervene.
One post directly tagging the relevant parties read: "@SoFiStadium please help us find these ladies who have the audacity to use a water gun to spray Jin while he was performing. How did they passed through security with a water gun? We demand strict action RIGHT NOW! @BTS_twt @HYBEOFFICIALtwt @HYBELABELS".
This is also not the first time Jin has become the target of water-spraying behavior from the au∂ιєnce. Previously, the issue drew attention at the concert in Munich, Germany, in late July. While Jin was completely immersed in his performance and hyping up the crowd on the extended stage, he was suddenly sprayed directly in the face.
Within just a few seconds, Jin's expression clearly changed from happy and excited to stunned and surprised. He also glanced toward the direction the water had come from before leaving the area. Although Jin did not show obvious signs of discomfort, many fans believed that his reaction indicated that he was uncomfortable with the au∂ιєnce member's actions and chose to walk away.
Following the incident in Munich, fans had already called on everyone not to repeat similar behavior. Therefore, the fact that two au∂ιєnce members continued to use water guns at the LA concert has left ARMY even more disappointed. Fans once again sparked discussions about the importance of maintaining clear boundaries between performers and au∂ιєnces during live concerts, including:
- These concertgoers are getting out of hand...that is fυ¢кing dangerous...what if it is not water??? There are million possibilities that could happen... fckkk
- That’s dangerous, we don’t know what’s really in that splashed liquid, what if it isn’t even water or what if there’s a bad chemical mixed in that liquid?! Wtf why are those fans allowed to bring that there? How’s the αѕѕurance of safety of the artists @SoFiStadium?
- Btch wtf Jin is too humble id have whacked αѕѕнσℓєs who doesn't know how to respect people this isnt funny
- Jin is literally standing infront of them. Instead of admiring him, this is what u gonna do? Of all the ways he cud have remembered you, u will be seen as one of those crazy ones
- Someone splashed water in his face when they were in Paris too, security really needs to be more vigilant considering this is the second time now. This isn’t okay.
- The way he manages to put people in their place with nothing but kindness! I don’t have your level of wisdom, baby. I would’ve made her eat that dmn water gun. B*tch!!
- Wet floors can be dangerous, unknowns substances being shot in an artists face with a water gun is definitely dangerous. This is so disrespectful too. I hope they make an action about this for artist safety !!!
