1. [+574, -32] Whether they're promoting LG or Samsung products, who cares... they're promoting Korean products in the end. Who cares if their real phones are iPhones or Samsungs? Samsung will receive the benefit of being promoted by a world famous idol group. BTS will be paid appropriately for their contribution. The economy is bad enough as it is due to the virus, why not get some more Korean cellphone sales thanks to BTS?
2. [+441, -37] What's so wrong about BTS promoting another company after their contract with LG ended...? How is that immoral? People will buy what they want to buy, and plenty of other celebrities hop brands too. Why such harsh standards only for BTS... ㅋ
3. [+358, -20] Wishing success for both BTS and the Galaxy~~
4. [+36, -8] There was another celebrity who was a UNIQLO model for several years before swapping to a competitor's brand as soon as their contract was over but they were praised for being a patriot, right? The double standards~!!!
5. [+34, -7] No better effect than BTS for promoting to the foreigners~ They're one of the most popular groups in the world... It's sad that Koreans are so busy trying to take them down.. sigh. Good luck to both Samsung and BTS~
6. [+25, -7] Do people also find issue with Jun Ji Hyun promoting one make up brand and then another after that contract? Why is that okay but BTS is getting criticized for the same thing?
7. [+25, -30] Weren't they promoting an LG phone last year? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ I get that the money's good but let's at least have some ethics ㅋㅋ
8. [+23, -9] There's no rule saying you have to use the product that you promote ㅋ Is Jo Jung Suk only allowed to eat Dongwon tuna? Is Baek Jong Won only allowed to eat Jin bibimmyeon? What's so wrong about a global group like BTS promoting a Korean product? That'll help with the sales and Samsung will pay more taxes and it'll all help us in the end~
9. [+22, -18] It's so stupid how they personally use iPhones but they're constantly promoting LG and Samsung phones. It's hilarious how they'll delete a post they wrote on their iPhones and rewrite it from their Androids ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
10. [+13, -24] But they use iPhones ㅋㅋ
