What Did BTS V Actually Do?

These men more feminist than some of the people here. If you are preaching feminism for likes and shit then please leave https://t.co/19aR5fTwFg

However, things took a turn, and soon the post became controversial. Some people found the picture sexual, while others felt it had misogynistic undertones. As the backlash grew, the director eventually deleted the post.
But the ‘Slow Dancing’ singer did not let the story end there. Soon after the photo was deleted, he shared the same picture on his own Instagram story.
His move quickly caught fans’ attention. Many fans praised V for sharing the picture despite the backlash and felt that he was showing support for the director. It also brought back discussions about his image among fans as someone who does not always follow what the loudest voices online want.
For many fans, the moment was less about the controversial photo and more about V making his own choice instead of allowing netizens to decide what he should post.
