Ever since it was rumored that Jimin and Taeyang would collaborate on the Big Bang member's comeback album, both ARMYs and VIPs have been restless. Korean media hailed this as the handshake of the century between one of the 2nd generation K-pop legends and the 3rd generation K-pop superstar.
But despite the expectations of the majority of fans, a part of Big Bang's fans gave many negative opinions about this collaboration. Many people even expressed their opinion that they would not support the music product of idol Taeyang if he collaborated with Jimin.
Of course, that was only part of the negative opinion, but it also made other fans uncomfortable with this behavior:
In the past few days, information about Jimin and Taeyang will collaborate in a new music product has been released by Korean media. After that, a series of curiosity and excitement waiting for the real news arose among Kpop fans.
Jimin and Taeyang are both the top vocalists of the two most popular idol groups of two generations. Their collaboration makes one expect a strong explosion and it is also a legendary collaboration like how SUGA and PSY conquered listeners.
A few days ago, Taeyang himself posted a picture jokingly about Jimin's presence, but it was not clear. But as of today, Taeyang's agency, The Black Label, has announced an all-time epic collaboration with BTS member Jimin.
They and Big Hit Music have released a teaser image of Taeyang's new digital single called "VIBE." In the picture, Taeyang and Jimin have a cool look and this is to confirm their collaboration through official social media channels.
This new song comes out six years after Taeyang's third full-length album, "White Night", was released in 2017. Taeyang's comeback this time is what his fans have been waiting for after a long time. long wait.
However, contrary to the overwhelming response to this unique collaboration, there were many VIPs who expressed the opinion that they will not listen to the songs when they are released with BTS's Jimin. Many people even gave negative words to Jimin and prayed that the cooperation would not go smoothly:
- I don't like Jimin voice and I bet that this song will be failed
- We don't want pigmin and taeyang tgt we can't stand his screech
- ppl know your fav only because of he didn't pay his taxes. hope he will d** from appendictitis soon so the collab will be cancelled
- I like Taeyang but I hate Jimin and in the end I won't listen to Vibe because of him
- Why would Taeyang choose someone with a weak vocal like him, I'm disappointed with this song
- This is just fake news, right? I won't listen to it with Jimin's voice
After seeing these comments, it angered many other genuine VIPs and ARMYs. They consider this to be a lack of respect for both Taeyang and Jimin while both artists have long had mutual respect and admiration for each other.
Before that, when Jimin debuted with BTS in 2013, he said, "I admire Big Bang Sunbaenim. I definitely want to stand on the same stage with them once." Many people also know that Jimin is Big Bang fans in general and Taeyang in particular.
Not only that, many VIPs also pointed out that Taeyang loved collaborating with Jimin and he even posted photos on his personal page about this collaboration before. Many people say that they have to let others see the amazing synergy between Taeyang returning after 6 years and Jimin, a global idol, to be able to shut up:
- They're so obsessed it's embarrassing they're only going to get worse once the actual song drops.
- theres a lot of people on both sides supporting, im excited and hope to see interactions :)
- That is so fcked up, they r so obsessed with Jm and PJMs
- Really pathetic breed pretending to be another stan just to spew hate against Jm
- Look at the language these pathetics use, it’s exact same. Do they really think everyone is 3rd graders? I really hope this breed will use their energy to support their fav than wait for Jimin to breath.
- this people are so pathetic , they keep saying bad and hateful things about PARK JIMIN, the problem is not PARK JIMIN, they are enjoying the attention they get from talking about PARK JIMIN. because its PARK JIMIN the KOREAN IT BOY! Fighting PARK JIMIN!!!!
- I can't wait for #VIBE, with Jimin and Taeyang. Jimin has said many times he wants to try new things that show different sides to him. I will always support Jimin. This is going to be so good!
- We will support Taeyang with whoever he collaborates!!!
- Taeyang was his bias from beginning of bts, I’m so happy for Jimin
