BTS Army defends J-Hope from trolls calling him 'ugly', fans say his 'beauty is ethereal'
The Internet, as we all know, can be nasty, unforgiving, and rude on numerous occasions. Platforms like Twitter, which are extremely popular throughout the world, can be used for spreading both negative and positive messages. The BTS Army, for instance, has been accused of toxicity in the past but, in this particular incident, fans of the K-pop superstars used their voice for good when rapper, songwriter, record producer, and BTS member J-Hope was called "ugly" by trolls on Twitter.
Jumping into action at once, members of the BTS Army defended J-Hope. Soon, Twitter was flooded with positive messages for the 26-year-old star to counter the 'J-Hope is Ugly' search on Twitter. One fan, for instance, defended J-Hope and called out the trolls by saying, "Do you know this guy? This guy is a dancing machine, he can rap, sing and really lovable, optimistic, cute and hot and makes cute aegyo, so whose ugly? Maybe the one who hates him. Remember!!! Attention...Without J-Hope there is no BTS...Remember that hatersss!! We don't need haters #jhope" while another, expressing similar sentiments, wrote, "I don't know why y’all hating on J-Hope but J-Hope is not ugly. J-Hope is so adorable that he can make someone smile with just a smile in his face and make them happy. J-Hope is a person that deserves everything."

It's not a secret that members of BTS have been subjected to many racist, xenophobic, and downright vile attacks based on their identity. To attack musicians you don't like, for whatever reason, for their looks is always wrong and should be spoken out against whenever it happens.
