K-Pop fans take over the trending hashtag #ImpeachBidenNow, drowning out controversial posts with K-pop content

AKP STAFF

A few months back, K-pop fans made headlines when they took over the hashtag #WhiteLivesMatter on social media, drowning out racists posts.

On January 22nd, some Trump supporters decided to take to social media and retaliate by requesting the impeachment of the new president Joe Biden.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, a Republican Congressperson, posted on Twitter Articles of Impeachment against President Joe Biden stating that "President Joe Biden is unfit to hold the office of the presidency. His pattern of abuse of power as President Obama’s vice president is lengthy and disturbing."

Trump supporters soon shared the hashtag #ImpeachBidenNow in an attempt to flood the social media platform with these controversial posts. However, K-Pop fans didn't just sit and watch but rather drowned out these controversial and offensive posts with the content of their favorite K-pop groups.

Now #ImpeachBidenNow is trending worldwide with thousands of K-pop content showing up in the results.
