Big Hit Entertainment officially addressed the controversy around fans being rejected from entering BTS' '5th Muster 'MAGIC SHOP'.

Twitter had exploded from fans claiming that they were rejected from 'Magic Shop' despite being the original purchaser and having ID. Images of security laughing at crying fans begging to be let in also surfaced online.

However, Big Hit Entertainment denied that any fans with proper identification were turned away. They told Star Today, "This event is for members of the 5th generation of the official fanclub. No matter what, if the tickets were bought from someone else, or if the identity could not be verified, they were not allowed in. This was all pre-announced through the ticket site, the fancafe, SNS, and through texts. We checked ID very thoroughly."

What do you think actually happened?

Those fans didnt listen nor read the rules that were posted before buying tickets then they get mad and start rumors:
first "sexually harassed by security" and now this, i'd like to know where the video that those things really happened,

"were mentally and physically harmed through this experience" why? because they didnt read the rules before buying tickets ??

just stop spreading rumors
