BTS V to Sue Youtuber Who is Spreading Malicious Rumors About Numerous K-Pop Artists

On the global fan community platform Weverse, an ARMY (BTS fandom) took to the platform to share about how a Youtuber has been spreading malicious rumors and comments about several K-Pop groups, such as BTS, TXT, aespa, THE BOYZ, NCT, and more on December 20 KST.

Some time later, BTS member V saw the post and left a comment announcing his plans to sue the Youtuber on behalf of the other K-Pop groups being targeted with malicious rumors.

"Oh?!! I will proceed with the lawsuits. I could earn some snack money. Mentioning my family and friends. Goodbye~," V said in the comments.

Fans who saw V's intention to sue and proceed with the lawsuit later made posts stating he shouldn't worry about it. However, V is adamant on suing the Youtuber, and left another comment regarding the issue.

"I just skimmed through it, and not only us, but all artists hate people like that. All fans and ARMY may or may not have been monitoring it [the Youtube channel], but I will sue on behalf of those who got hurt but did not have enough courage," V said as a response.

On the other hand, it was later revealed that the Youtuber in question is from a channel called Cyber Rekka, who has been criticized for their sensational titles to gain a high number of views, as well as for exaggerating and excessively reducing their content.

Numerous fans praised V for his determination to sue the Youtuber, and wished that other channels similar to that of Cyber Rekka would be deleted by suing them.

The Youtuber also responded to V's claim to file a lawsuit through their channel's community tab, who seemed to show no remorse for their actions.

"(Breaking) V has personally mentioned Cyber Rekka on Weverse. He said he saw the videos. He shouldn't have said ^snack money^ which can make his lawsuit more difficult but that's our V. How big can Cyber Rekka get? This is the one and only drama channel that the world star BTS personally watches," the Youtuber said.
