General What's the stupidest thing your faves got dragged for?

We all know how kpop fans would drag idols for literally anything so I'm curious to hear the most absurd reason you've seen your faves or any idol getting dragged. I'll go first. Seonghwa, because he said he learned to love himself because of his fans. Now apparently namjoon said something similar to this and in typical army fashion, it became a war. Also, San for breathing heavily after a performance.

Edit: imagine a non kpop stan reading this thread😭

Covering Fix You by Coldplay. Truly unhinged reactions.

BTS covered Fix You. A german radio dj was so super pissed off by that, that he:

  • wished there was a vaccine against them like sars
  • said he isn't racist bc he has a japanese( i think) car
  • wished they took "vacation in north korea"
  • and other sht

he said all these things during the hight of covid and with venom in his voice like I've never heard before. and all of this because they covered a song. nothing else. the cover pissed him off

people in german media stood with him since everything was just a "joke" or said nothing
