On Wednesday, October 15, BTS' Taehyung posted an Instagram story of a song recommendation, Daniel Caesar's Moon feat. Bon Iver. While many fans were happy to learn about the idol's current favorite songs, some netizens accused him of allegedly copying his fellow member, Jungkook.
Previously, on October 11, Jungkook posted two Instagram stories with two song recommendations. One was A Couple Minutes by Olivia Dean, and the other was Moon feat. Bon Iver by Daniel Caesar. This led to people concluding that Taehyung was allegedly trying to pick up similar tastes and interests to Jungkook, and many were unhappy about the same.
Several people also criticized Taehyung for his alleged actions, and many hateful comments were made in his direction. However, fans soon came to the idol's defense and explained that Taehyung has been a fan of Daniel Caesar for a long time. Additionally, people also argued that a simple song recommendation doesn't convey the idol's intentions to copy or imitate his fellow members.
Some also speculated that the idol's intentions of posting the same story as Jungkook were to allegedly feed and motivate those who ship the two BTS members as a couple. Fans were naturally left outraged, and many also found the criticism against BTS' V to be unnecessary and baseless. Here are a few fan reactions regarding the same:
"He’s always loved Daniel Caesar’s songs!" said a fanHe’s always loved Daniel Caesar’s songs!
More fans and netizens criticized the netizens who have been spreading misinformation and disrespectful rumours against BTS' Taehyung.
