Big Hit staff comes under fire for smoking near BTS + Big Hit deletes video

AKP STAFF
BTS
Big Hit Entertainment�is under fire due to a smoking staff member.


Just a few hours ago, BTS�uploaded a 'Bangtan Bomb', a series of short videos the boys casually film for fans to enjoy. This particular one was short and featured Jimin�playing with a rubber snake. While the video itself was adorable, fans saw something they were shocked by - a staff member smoking behind Jimin.

Smoking inside buildings is illegal in Korea (however, the law applies to public spaces, so an M/V filming set might not count), but the biggest reason for the fans' anger is that she's smoking near singers, whose throat conditions are very important.�





Another staff member is also being called into question. During a Bomb back in 2014, V�is shown introducing the camera to the rest of the group. However, when he walks into the class, one of the female staff members laughs loudly and can be allegedly heard saying, "It's like he's [mentally] disabled." The problematic Bomb is here, and the comment can be heard at the 0:05 mark.


After fans expressed their outrage at the video, the Bomb in question has been deleted.�




However, the video has been re-uploaded by many angry fans, who are demanding a response from Big Hit. You can watch the video below:




What do you think of the controversy?
