Costs of Jimin’s father’s cafe merch faces some scrutiny

Article: BTS Jimin’s father below controversy for promoting son’s merch at extreme costs… even giving autographs and fan meets of himself

Supply: Sports activities Kyunghyang through Nate

[+354, -41] There may be such quite a lot of methods for fogeys to destroy the way forward for their very own kids

[+298, -44] Actually, Jimin’s father is an excessive amount of;; I do not assume he is being opportunitistic, I feel he is all the time been an excessive amount of and individuals are lastly beginning to take discover. I’ve by no means seen one other celeb with a father like this.

[+137, -162] The media is clearly taking their jabs at BTS now that Suga has his drunk driving scandal

– [+55, -27] Do you severely see this father’s actions as being regular then?

[+85, -35] Generally your dad and mom are your greatest enemy

[+81, -103] Have a look at our nation making an attempt to tear down a gaggle that is a pure treasure, a gaggle we’ll most likely by no means have the ability to produce once more..

[+36, -23] I imply, that is fairly extreme, although, why is the daddy holding his personal fan meets ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ does his son not give him cash or one thing? ㅋㅋ I went to his Instagram and he is principally promoting his personal BTS merch too ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ a hand fan for 40,000 received hul

[+34, -20] Let me get the details straight right here: That image is not of Jimin’s father maintain his personal fan signing. Throughout BTS’s Busan live performance, followers began lining up exterior of Jimin’s father’s Busan cafe, and the road obtained so lengthy that no person was getting in so he felt sorry and arrange one other desk exterior to greet the followers (the image was taken by a grateful fan expressing her thanks). I feel this text is blowing up the fan signing prefer it was one thing intentional the daddy is doing. 

[+30, -17] Journalist-nim, Jimin’s father has all the time had his cafe and has been increasing the fan merch enterprise currently by maintaining with the developments. Clearly it is off the rising recognition of Jimin however he is additionally contributing to his neighborhood with charity and volunteer work as nicely. If this can be a downside, then why aren’t BTS’s different relations “controversial” too like RM’s dongsaeng who opened a restaurant? 

[+24, -18] Jimin’s father has by no means “offered out” Jimin. The fan signing stuff was as a result of so many followers had come to see him the cafe that they had been even prepared to get the daddy’s autograph as an alternative. And the fan merch was designed by his personal cafe. If that is all thought of “an excessive amount of” and “utilizing BTS” then what about all these eating places which have BTS’s footage up on their partitions for visiting? What’s your intention behind this text?

[+23, -16] Is the reporter a BTS anti?

[+21, -16] Jimin’s father has donated below Jimin’s title a lot cash… if something, I wager the donations made in all of BTS, Jimin has essentially the most in not solely quantity however selection as nicely. Although I do not actually perceive why followers would need his father’s autograph both;;

[+20, -11] That autograph image is from the Busan live performance ㅋㅋ not a “fan signing”. Armies had been lined up exterior his cafe in the course of the Busan con so Jimin’s father went out and handed out drinks, and when followers swarmed him for his autograph, it obtained harmful so he made them get in a safer line exterior by his chair. 

[+17, -13] Even common espresso outlets have their very own merch for hefty costs~~ what’s the issue right here

[+15, -10] Even apart from Jimin’s father, a lot of the relations of BTS personal their very own companies, and also you clearly cannot ignore the sunshine that the BTS title shines on them. That does not make it improper for the households to have their very own companies. By making it appear “controversial” like this, it solely looks as if the media is making an attempt to kill off BTS.

[+14, -13] Antis positive should’ve had a subject day reporting this to the media ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ undecided why they care a lot how followers select to spend their very own cash

[+10, -4] For a way well-known BTS is, I might say their relations are extra personal than you’d assume… there are tons of cafes that make and promote their very own merch. And yeah, the fan signing image is kinda humorous but when followers need his autograph, who’s stopping them…
