I meant to write this sooner.
     I honestly don't know if something like this makes a big difference in views on BTS's music videos but I imagine it does. I would have pointed this channel out sooner but my mind loses information until something jogs my memory. I know that this account has appeared right after BTS puts out a new song and I reported the videos but I don't know how all that works honestly.

   This account is Big Hit Labels yes I know that Big Hit Labels is really Big Hit. From what I've seen this imposter account appears when BTS puts out a new song or video and I know that there are some fan made videos put out so instead of watching those I try to find the actual video and this has happened to me twice that I know of. I've went under my subscriptions to Big Hit and Bangtan looked to see if they posted any videos because I can't do much in the way of support but I can contribute to video views after looking on the channels and not seeing anything new I go about my business searching for things that catch my attention. I find recommended to me a new BTS music video from the channel Big Hit Labels of course I click to watch and this particular time was a video for stay gold. While watching I realize that it was a fan made video so I go to the channel and all that is on it was this video this was before the actual video came out.The day the new video came out it was the first thing I saw when I opened YouTube as I knew Big Hit released the video I didn't think about the imposter channel I watched the video and clicked on the channel icon because I was going to watch another of the BTS music videos. It was the freaking imposter account that had uploaded the new actual video. I figured they are using the name of the official big hit channel to trick people into viewing their videos or as a way to take views away from BTS I still don't know how all that works. I don't know if anyone was aware of this and I'm not sure if YouTube stops channels from having the same name where  it does like everywhere else saying this username is unavailable and you're forced to add in extra numbers because who knew 500 people has the same exact name as you. Anyways I brought this up so that someone else who knows how to can bring this to the attention of Big Hit preferably and maybe YouTube to remove that channel if it pops up again. I'm not sure how active it is I know it appears when new music from BTS comes out.

  The channel is there today with a music video of your eyes tell.
