The United States … https://t.co/hwzkhvgk9r– BTS_offial (@bts_bighit) March 12, 2025
The fans took the cancellation itself in a sporting way, accepting to give priority to the security of J-Hope and its crew. But many were also infuriated by the fact that Bighit refused to recognize the real situation.
THE “local circumstances “, As many fans pointed out, refer to the protests in progress in New York against the illegal possession of the government of Mahmoud KhalilAn American citizen and a student from Columbia University. The DHS (National Security Department) and Ice (immigration and customs of the United States) detained Khalil for participating in the students’ camp last year to protest the Israeli assault of Palestinian civil assaults.
Mahmoud Khalil was kidnapped by Ice, DHS and with the complicity of the Zionist, he invested Columbia University for talking about the genocide of his people. He is currently kept hundreds of miles away from his wife and community in a detention structure. Palestinians and them … https://t.co/5jrezpdyqs

Khalil, who is an American citizen with a green card, has been arrested and faces the threat of deportation despite not having broken any law. The main opposition politicians sentenced his arrest as illegal, while regular citizens took to the street, asking for his release.
The fans criticized Bighit’s decision to leave out this context in their post, which clearly contrasts with their mention of the fires of La in such a deletion of cancellation they had published previously.

People, there are protests against the kidnapping of Mahmoud Khalil by the United States government for protesting against the genocide against the Palestinians.
You will have to be for social justice and the voice of young people and you all failed.

Because it is so difficult for you to recognize that the “inevitable local circumstances” are a pro Palestine protest, but continue to insert the musical productions of such easy artists

Some, however, said that the company was trying to maintain neutrality and avoid political discourse in their opinion. Others hoped that the notice would unleash fans who were not familiar with the situation to educate themselves.
I hope this makes the Armys curious.
I hope people start looking for a little.
I hope more people learn what’s going on to Mahmoud Khalil and the threat that is at the right trial and collective security.
We are not free until we are all free, seriously. https://t.co/fk5w5f7k0u
