We Are Bulletproof: The Eternal | BTS 8TH MEMBER

Attack on Bangtan

The initial euphoria of the co-ed group's debut had slowly given way to the harsh realities of fame. With their soaring popularity came an influx of both love and hate. The members were constantly bombarded with messages, both positive and negative.

For Arin, the online world had become a battlefield. She was constantly bombarded with hateful comments, her presence in the group often being reduced to a mere accessory.

Being the only girl in a male group made her an easy target. The comments ranged from insults about her appearance to questioning her talent. It was a ruthless onslaught that chipped away at her self-esteem.

The constant flurry of negativity took its toll on Arin's mental health. She retreated into herself, her once bright spirit dimmed by the harsh reality of online hate. The boys, sensing her distress, often gathered around her in hopes of bringing back the sunshine they once knew.

Hoseok tried to lift her spirits with jokes and laughter. Jimin offered words of comfort and encouragement. Taehyung did questionable, but funny stunts to try to make her laugh. Seokjin provided a listening ear and a warm embrace. Jungkook would come up with silly dances, just to hear her sweet laugh. Even Yoongi expressed his concern.

Namjoon, as the leader, took it upon himself to address the issue head-on. He called in for a group meeting to discuss strategies to combat online hate.

During the group meeting

Namjoon initiated the conversation. "We need to address this issue head-on," he began, his voice firm. "RiRi, you've been bearing the weight of online hate, and it's not fair."

The other members nodded in agreement. Hoseok reached out and squeezed Arin's hand, offering silent support. Jimin spoke up, "We'll protect you, noona. Don't let those hateful comments get to you." Arin smiled weakly at his words.

Seokjin offered wise advice. "Ignore the negativity. Focus on the love and support from our fans. They're the ones who truly matter." Yoongi added, "We'll handle the haters. You just focus on your music and being yourself."

Jungkook looked at Arin with determination. "We're a team, and we'll face this together," he declared, his voice filled with conviction.

Arin's heart swelled with gratitude and her eyes filled with tears as her bandmates gathered around and hugged her. Their unwavering support was a beacon of hope amid this storm. She realized that she wasn't alone in this battle. They were a team, and they would face this challenge together.

Namjoon suggested, "We could release a statement denouncing the hate," he proposed. "It's important to let our biased fans know that we won't tolerate this kind of behavior."

The others nodded in agreement. It was time to take a stand. They couldn't let the haters silence them or dampen their spirits. Namjoon continued, "Okay then. I'll talk to Sejin hyung about this."

The decision to release a statement was met with approval from Sejin. It was time to take a stand against the online hate that had been tormenting them. Namjoon took the initiative to draft a message that was both firm and compassionate.

As the group read through the statement, a sense of unity and purpose filled the room. They were more than just a group of K-pop idols, they were a family, standing together against adversity. This statement was a declaration of their strength, a promise to their fans that they would not be silenced.

With heavy hearts, they posted the statement on their social media accounts. The response was overwhelming. ARMY offered words of support and encouragement.

It was a bittersweet victory. While the battle against online hate was far from over, they had taken the first step towards creating a more positive online environment.

The outpouring of love and support from their fans was overwhelming. The members were bombarded with messages, gifts, and fan art. It was a whirlwind of emotions, a rollercoaster ride of gratitude and disbelief.

Arin, in particular, felt a sense of validation. The countless messages of encouragement from ARMY helped to drown out the negative voices. She realized that she wasn't alone in this journey and that the love of their fans was a powerful force.

The message:- "We are deeply saddened and disheartened by the recent wave of hate and negativity directed towards us. It's discouraging to see such negativity, especially when we strive to spread positivity and love through our music.

This hate has led some of our members to question their appearances, talents, and even themselves. They have been eating very little, spending a lot of time locked away in the studio, and have been interacting very less with us.

We won't be mentioning their names, but we want fans to know that not only does the hate affect their performance, but it also makes the rest of the members sad.

We hope that our fans will continue to support us and spread kindness and understanding. Let's work together to create a more positive and inclusive environment for everyone.

Thank you for your love and support.

Sincerely, BTS"
