Auto-Translations Sabotaged BTS Twice In Less Than 24 Hours
Once again, BTS‘s messages to fans have been lost in translation, no thanks to auto-translators!
Recently, “THE TRANSLATION” trended on Twitter because of a spit-out-your-drink-worthy translation fail by Google. A quote from Jimin and V‘s live stream was mistranslated to something NSFW because of a word’s double meaning.
Now, another auto-translator has joined the party! On Weverse, V shared a group photo of himself dining on set with Suga, RM, and Jimin. The caption, which refers to their food, says, “Does it suit your taste?” Unfortunately, Weverse had other ideas.
It auto-translated V’s caption to this. Make of that what you will!
Once again, fans are disappointed but not surprised, and they’re sharing their reactions on social media.
