BTS's Jungkook's new song sparks controversy again!
2023-09-30
Popular boy band BTS member Jungkook released his new solo single "3D" along with its music video on the 29th. However, the song's lyrics sparked controversy for containing elements that insulted Eastern women.
On the 29th, a post titled "Am I the only one who feels uncomfortable after listening to the lyrics of Jungkook's '3D' rap?" was uploaded on the discussion forum, triggering a wave of controversy among netizens.
In the article, the netizen who wrote the article first expressed that the part of the song that Jungkook is responsible for is just right, sexy and pleasant to the ear. Then, they posted the third verse's Rapper part, because "All my ABGs get cute for me" implies that Asian girls are dressing up cute for him, which is accused of having a derogatory meaning towards Eastern women. Therefore, the outright insult to Eastern women scared the netizen after they heard it.
The netizen understood that the "misogynistic" part of the lyrics was handled by Jack Harlow, but he still thinks the song belongs to Jungkook. Given that Jungkook has many Asian female friends and fans around him, they think those misogynistic parts of the lyrics should be removed.
On this, netizens have shown a split opinion. Some users feel, "The rap part is pretty tough, can you even understand it? Impressive," "Right! Only you feel uncomfortable," "I don't see any problem,"
"The company definitely filters it before launching it. Since it's been launched, it means there's no problem, mind your own business.", "Are you being too sensitive? As long as it sounds good, that's all that matters.", "I don't quite understand what's making you uncomfortable, you can share it if you want." These are the contrasting views.
On the contrary, some netizens thought, "I'm really disappointed that they would openly belittle Eastern women in front of Western women," "If it was Jake Harlow's album, it wouldn't matter, but why use it in Jungkook's song? How could Jungkook compromise?" "I'm seriously shocked after listening to it, why do the lyrics have to be like this?"
