"월드 투어 중에 끔찍한 일이 일어날 것입니다!"     

     On the live chat that BTS was filming in real time, comments were flowing at full speed, in all languages. Too fast for this particular comment to gain attention. At least until it's sent out at regular intervals, both in Korean and in English.

     "월드 투어 중에 끔찍한 일이 일어날 것입니다!"  

     "Something terrible will happen to you during the world tour!"

    And then, an other one appear many times to accompany the first threatening message: 

     "I'm angry, I'm not going to hold back from hitting hard!"

     Fans eventually noticed but not the seven idols who had started a new discussion and had so far put aside the flow of comments left by the Armys.

     The latter, mostly non-Korean, then began to turn away from the live that they did not understand to respond furiously to the commentary that was looping. The nickname written in hangeul, the Korean alphabet, could not be sure that it was really a Korean person because many fans chose a nickname written in Korean but fans did not care anyway and began to answer that person in all languages:

     « BTS is not afraid of haters like you!"

     " BTS n'a pas peur des haineux dans ton genre ! »

     « BTS는 당신처럼 혐오스러운 사람들을 두려워하지 않습니다!»

     « BTS no le teme a los que odian como tú »

     « BTS あなたのような嫌いな人を恐れないでください"

     " BTS tidak takut pada pembenci sepertimu"

     « BTS tidak takut kepada pembenci seperti anda"

     "बीटीएस आप जैसे नफरत करने वालों से नहीं डरता!"

     "BTS non ha paura degli hater come te"

     "لا يخافون من الكارهين مثلك BTS"

     "BTSはあなたのような嫌悪を恐れていません"

     Army argued that BTS, no matter what, would maintain their planned tour for their true fans and would not yield to the threat of a person. 

     In the face of this surge of support, many haters ambushed in the chat attempted to compete by deflecting their own wave of hatred, and the hurtful comments against the members ignited the live without the members realizing it.

     The singers were joking about what hair color each of them would sport at the planned concert a few weeks later and ended up asking the ARMYs for advice on which color would suit Jin best.

     It was as the outpouring of hatred turned towards Jin - who, however, had not asked anything of anyone - that the members finally resumed the thread of comments, oblivious to the war going on in it.

     Jimin was holding the tablet, ready to read the comments aloud, but he froze before the words passed his lips and his face crumpled in the pain he felt at what he was reading.

"... Useless."

"Jin is the one who deserves the least attention, why talk about his hair color? Who cares?"

"Who is this guy interested in..."

"Wasn't he supposed to go? It was planned before the world tour, right?"

"Yeah, so what's he still doing there?!"

 "Plus he got injured just before the tour, he should be ashamed of putting others members in trouble!"

     Despite the active defense of the ARMYs that far rivaled these vile comments, Jimin preferred to go up the flow of comments before Jin realized the haters' obnoxious words. However, the more he scanned the comments, the more concern showed on his face. 

     Facing his crestfallen face, the other members could no longer ignore his silence and Namjoon asked Jimin to give him the tablet so he could read himself. Jimin did so, then looked up at the camera with sadness. 

     Yoongi and Hoseok tried to read over the shoulder of their leader who now wore the same decomposed face as Jimin. Namjoon hastened to turn off the tablet screen and end the live:

     "It's time for us to leave now, thank you ARMY for your support."

     Taken by step, the other members followed suit and greeted the ARMYs with feigned enthusiasm and the live suddenly ended, to the chagrin of the fans.

     "What just happened?" Jungkook asked. 

     Surprise could be read on his face as he hadn't been able to read the comments but he knew one thing: BTS usually doesn't bow down to hateful comments. So, he didn't understand the reaction of his hyungs.

     "The live has gotten out of hand," Yoongi explained to him.

     "It has reached unprecedented proportions,"  Hoseok's worried voice confirmed, "like at the time of the shippers' war."

     "Yaaa!" Jin joked to lighten the mood and reassure the younger ones, seeing them suddenly anxious, "these are things we can handle. Why take things so seriously? The shippers' war ended in nothing, despite what we feared, remember?"

    "Maybe because you and Jungkook have been explicitly distant for months?" Hoseok ventured.

    "But we saw today the fans were happy to see that Jungkook and I made up, right?" Jin retorted, putting an arm around Jungkook's neck who smiled happily back.

     Namjoon intervened gravely:

     "Guys, that has nothing to do with what we know how to manage, even the shipping war. Our live lost interest and it never happened. It was all about hateful comments against us on the one hand and the ruin of our world tour on the other. We must understand where this idea started from and see if indeed it is only the isolated speech of one or two haters or if it is really a serious idea because this idea has federated too many voices behind it. We have to understand why and maybe... maybe... "He paused, his face suddenly crestfallen.

     "What? Hyung?" Taehyung suddenly asked, alerted by his leader's eloquent pause.

     "... maybe think about canceling our world tour if it turns out that it is too dangerous to continue," Namjoon finished.

     He expected it, but the outraged expressions and cries of protest from his members hurt him.

     "That's impossible hyung!" Jungkook shouted.

     "It's our big comeback, we can't undo it!" Hoseok added.

     "We had to finally get back to Army after two years of pandemic!" Jimin said pleadingly.

     "We worked so hard...!"Taehyung exclaimed.

    Hearing this, Jin understood that he had been right to insist on not having a medical exemption. The tour was far too important for each of the members and for their fans.

     "Hey guys! "their leader interrupted ," I am not deciding anything, we will discuss it with Han hyung and Lee hyung who will certainly discuss it with PD-nim and the rest of the staff. They will analyze the comments – maybe they are doing it right now already – and they will decide. As always."

    He thus ended the deluge of protests which had descended upon him when he was not responsible for anything, being himself particularly upset by the situation. 

      A heavy silence settled in then. The boys had plunged into their thoughts, some preoccupied by the threat hanging over the group and others, convinced that they had to adopt the same indifferent behavior towards the haters, not to give them satisfaction and on the contrary, to prove worthy of the support and love that their fans had for them.
