The hashtag claiming “BTS Is Over Party” trended worldwide, causing ARMYs and netizens to spiral into a confusing argument.
The hashtag was apparently started by a group of friends that calls themselves “The Mob”. They are known for their YouTube videos and Twitch streams.
They created the hashtag to create awareness for their recent charity.

Others claimed that although the intensions of the hashtag were good, it is causing unnecessary confusion and negativity towards BTS. ARMYs believe The Mob should have gone with a more positive hashtag.
#BTSisoverparty y'all but maybe we could make a hashtag for the charity that doesn't look like hate? Cause it's honestly such a good cause but it's so sad it's getting attention cause of hate-
