Taehyung, popularly known as BTS’s member V, shared a post on his Instagram account that sparked a massive controversy and attracted a lot of criticism from netizens. Recently, the K-pop idol was announced as the brand ambassador of Coca-Cola. Since then, he has been getting a lot of harsh comments from people, as the brand is on the BDS boycott list amid the ongoing conflict in Gaza.
As soon as the BTS member took to his Instagram handle to share an update about himself and the other members, it went viral. The post garnered a lot of views and appreciative comments, but he also received a lot of criticism as netizens noticed the cap he was wearing, which featured the Coca-Cola logo. Here’s how they have been reacting to it.

Now, netizens have been quite frustrated with them. Taking X (previously known as Twitter) by storm, they have expressed their anger through various tweets and comments, as they believe V’s popularity might help boost the brand, as it has happened before with other brands.

You are endorsing and promoting so many z!0nist brands, do better.” One frustrated fan stated, “WTF JUNGKOOK?! I’m beyond disappointed.”
Another user requested, “Dear #Taehyung #Jungkook @BTS_twt, Pls don’t consume or promote Coca Cola or any companies that are financing the genocide in Palestine. Pls educate yourself and pay heed to @BDSmovement. We love you and want you to stand with humanity.”
