BTS member Jungkook has issued a letter of apology via Weverse for his “Make Tokyo Great Again” hat.
On June 14 KST, the BTS member wrote,
“Hello, this is Jungkook.
My heart is heavy over the fact that I am writing this right after our reunion.
I sincerely apologize for disappointing and displeasing many people through the hat I wore during rehearsal.
It was due to my inadequacy that I went on stage wearing a hat without checking the historical and political meaning held in the words, and for that, I am deeply reflecting on myself.
I’m just sorry.
There’s no room for excuses. It was my inadequacy and carelessness which brought about this situation.
From now on, I will act with greater care and consideration.
I will humbly accept all criticism and judgement directed toward me for my mistake.
The hat was disposed of immediately.
Once again, I apologize.”
Previously, Jungkook appeared on stage during a rehearsal for J-Hope’s ‘Hope On The Stage‘ final concert at Goyang Stadium wearing a hat which read, “Make Tokyo Great Again”, fueling the anger of netizens.
