Post a boycott campaign against the fast-food chain for its support of Israel, BTS member V is facing backlash after sharing an Instagram picture of fries from a brand. V became the most unfollowed K-pop artist of the previous day after losing over 32,000 followers as a result of the post.
BTS’ V slammed by netizens
BTS’ V was the subject of controversy on July 21 as a result of a recent Instagram post. A flurry of criticism was sparked by the post, which included an apparently innocent picture of McDonald’s french fries.
A boycott campaign has been launched against McDonald’s because it is thought to be supporting Israel during the current Gaza conflict.
V became the most unfollowed K-pop musician in that time frame as a result of the negative reaction to his Instagram account, which abruptly lost over 32,000 followers in a single day.
Despite the controversy, some advocates of V contend that the McDonald’s location shown in the article is run separately from the international chain, which might not have the same political beliefs.
