Despite the controversy over the so-called BTS 'Korean Liberation Army T-shirt', which started with the criticism of Japan's far-right forces, it is also noteworthy that it continues to be popular with its album sales volume higher than the previous day.
Earlier, local far-right netizens argued that BTS member Jimin had acted "anti-Japanese" by referring to the "Korean Liberation Army T-shirt" that was exposed for only two seconds through the documentary "Bun the Stage" which was released for two years ago.
As a result, the TV Asahi music station "MUSIC STATION (Mste), which originally planned to live with BTS on November 9, suddenly announced that "BTS' appearance was postponed" ahead of the broadcast.
But according to the T-shirt maker, the T-shirt is a costume that expresses historical facts with the intention of becoming more interested in history with younger friends. Therefore, it is hard to say that it is a T-shirt made for anti-Japanese. In fact, T-shirts include the phrase PATRIOTISM (patriarchy), OURHISTORY (our history), LIBERATION (liberation), Korea (Korean), the image of our ancestors who are hurling themselves for the Korean Liberation Army, and the historical image of the United States of America dropping the bomb on Japan.
Experts such as Professor Seo Kyung-duk of Sungshin Women's University, who is working as a public relations specialist in Korea, analyzed that there is political retaliation intention behind this incident. Our Supreme Court of South Korea recently confirmed a court ruling that four Japanese-made labor Victims, including the late Yeo Un-taek, should compensate Victims for 100 million won each in a retrial of damages claims filed against Japan New Japan Steel (currently Shin Il-cheol Fund).
According to the Sankei newspaper on September 9, the Japanese Embassy began an international public opinion war that the Korean Supreme Court of South Korea's forced labor ruling was unfair, posting a statement on the homepage and SNS, which contained the opposition of the Japanese Foreign Ministry immediatEly after the Korean Supreme Court of South Korea. According to NHK on November 11, the Japanese government decided to unify the names of Victims, which were called "jobs" and "old civilian laborers" related to the ruling of the Supreme Court of South Korea, as "workers from the former Korean Peninsula". For the time being, the political dispute over the ruling is expected to continue.
Among them, Sponi Annex reported that NHK 'Hongbaek Hapjeon', Fuji TV 'FNS Song Festival, Asahi TV 'Music Station Super Live', which had not been confirmed in the first place, "The BTS' t-shirt disturbance was added to the ruling of the s compensation, and it was a cold water poured on the third Korean wave craze." However, it is unclear whether the wave of the old-fashioned Korean Wave, such as preventing the appearance of broadcasting, will be effective as the popularity of BTS was based on the release of local albums, hosting solo Concerts, and online content (including YouTube bulletproof nights).
