Fans Are Upset That BTS’s J-Hope Wasn’t Given The Chance To Speak After Receiving The Award
While BTS took home both the Album and Digital Song Daesangs at the 34th Golden Disc Awards, fans found it unfortunate that J-Hope didn’t get his chance to speak after receiving the awards.
Fans on Twitter started to post about this and expressed their frustration.
“They received four awards today and out of the seven members, J-Hope was the only one that didn’t get a chance to speak after receiving the awards. This isn’t the first time they’ve received an award and it shouldn’t be too hard to make sure all the members have a chance to speak. They should know how precious these live broadcast shows are. I’m so upset that they didn’t make time for J-Hope to speak too.”
오늘 받은 상 4개, 7명 중 #제이홉 만 수상소감 못함. 시상식 한 두번 참가도 아니고 미처 마이크 못잡은 멤 챙기는게 그렇게 어려운지. 전국생중계 시상식이 얼마나 소중한 자리인지 다 알면서 아무도 배려하지 않았다는게 너무 실망스럽고 슬픔 +#RM #진 #슈가 #지민 #뷔 #정국 @BTS_twt @BigHitEnt

“I saw several clips online and I could understand why Hobi’s fans were upset about this. The cameras didn’t do a lot of close-ups for him and only used full shots. I hope that the members can take care of each other. I hope that only good things happen for our hard-working Hobi!”
저도 방송을 본게 아니라 짤로 봐서 몰랐ㄴ데 호비팬들 서운하셨겠어요 단체캠 봐도 호비 잘 안잡아주고 풀샵하더라구요 저도 서운한맘 알아요 앞으로 멤버끼리 서로서로 챙겨주길바랍니다 본업잘하는 우리호비 열심히하는만큼 앞으로 더더 승승장구할겁니다 치누숲처럼요 #제이홉

“I also thought that Hobi would say something next after RM but it just ended like that.”
저두 대상 소감때 호석이가 마이크앞에 있어서 남준이 말한뒤에 소감 얘기할 줄 알았어요ㅠㅠ못하고 끝나버려 맘이 좀 그래서 초면에 글 남깁니다..

“The camera work for ‘Dionysus’ was pretty bad and it zoomed out at Hobi’s parts. I can understand just how upset his fans are. We all know how hard-working and amazing he is. I hope J-Hope’s fans won’t be upset for too long. Let’s send him more love and support!”
오늘 디오니 카메라도 그렇고..
얼마나 서운하실지 짐작하고도 남습니다.
제이홉이 얼마나 열심이고 멋지고 중요한 멤버인지 우리가 다 압니다. 잠시만 서운해 하고 더 많은 사랑과 응원 보냅시다🙏🙆♀️— BonoV (@BonoV10) January 5, 2020
After the live broadcast of the show ended, J-Hope posted messages on both Twitter and Weverse. Fans felt that J-Hope posted these messages because he wasn’t able to thank fans during the show.
“I love you ARMY! Fighting for 2020! You guys are my hope!”
💜따랑합니다 아미💜2020년도 파이팅💜

He left a heartfelt message on Weverse expressing to ARMYs that they were his hope.
I feel like tonight is the day I finally feel like 2019 has ended. I am able to happily end the past year after doing my best for the performance we worked so hard for! As I am organizing my thoughts I am excited for what this New Year will bring! All the moments we had together were new and unforgettable. I am able to confidently start 2020 without any worries! All the honor and happiness we have received are precious to me and will continue to be precious so I wanted to express my feelings to everyone with words. ARMY! You guys are truly my hope! I don’t know how well I can express this in words but I love you all! I love you!!!
J-Hope later got to speak about receiving the award after the live show through the TikTok app. Fans hope that they will work harder to include all the members for important events such as this.
생방 다 끝나고 말하는 소감. 젤 중요한 시상식에서 제이홉만 저 말 몇 마디를 못함. 대상발표 하나만 남았을 때 제이홉이 아직 수상소감 못했다는 걸 아무도 몰랐다고? 1년간 똑같이 고생했는데 왜 똑같이 클로즈업되고 박수 받는거 못함? 매번 양보만 해오던 멤에게 무슨 일이 일어났냐고 @BTS_twt pic.twitter.com/Q9BRUjubO7
