Pre-buzz

APAN music awards drew flak earlier this week for cropping out the picture of BTS member V in a promotional teaser. A fan group wrote on Twitter, “Admin: The interpark website uploaded two promotional posters for APAN Star Awards 2020 with Taehyung missing in the 2nd one. Help us send them feedback about this both on instagram & facebook so APAN can fix it immediately.”

Another fan wrote, “Seriously...is that really too hard for them to count to 7.” Another enraged fan wrote, #BTSis7APAN MUSIC AWARDS HAS TO GET IT'S S*IT TOGETHER! BTS IS 7 S-E-V-E-N NOT S-I-X RESPECT KIM TAEHYUNG! RESPECT V! RESPECT BANGTAN!” Later, the site was updated with the correct image which included all seven members of BTS.

Blackpink fans have alleged the award show to be rigged for not including Blackpink in their top 10 list. A fan wrote, “Blackpink has been proving in 2020 what they've been robbed of from the past years that it becomes an obvious joke if these award shows still keep on ignoring them. I bet MMA and hopefully MAMA learned better from AAA and APAN RIGGED AWARD SHOWS that blinks will not be silent.”
