Jin excluded from 'Dynamite' EDM, angry BTS ARMY slams Bighit Entertainment and trends #JinDeservesBetter

Though fans enjoyed watching MV, they noticed Jin doesn't have any solo shot when singing his part unlike rest of the band, he also doesn't have any screentime and line in the first part of the song

BTS returned with an English song, 'Dynamite', and dominated worldwide trends on Friday, August 21, as the single set a new YouTube record of 98.3 million views in the first 24 hours of its release. But soon fans noticed that Jin wasn't made a part of the hit video's EDM version.

On Monday, August 24, Big Hit Entertainment shared a video link of the single's EDM version. Though fans enjoyed watching the MV, they noticed that Jin doesn't have any solo shot when singing his part unlike the rest of the band, he also doesn't have any screentime and line in the first part of the song when all members sing their parts and have solo shots. The band also raked controversy after posting a picture with six band members and soon, the Internet started reacting to it and said, "BTS is 7".

One user said: "Please make content that includes all 7 members without excluding anyone. In the 'Dynamite' MV, one member didn't have his solo set. One member can't be seen in the official press release photo. One member's parts are excluded in the EDM version. BTS is 7." Another wrote: "Hello @BigHitEnt we have noticed that you chose to release EDM version of Dynamite when Seokjin an artist under your label is entirely cut off and missing We don't accept this kind of behavior of song. You're pushing anti behaviour #BTSJIN #BigHitEntertainment #JIN #btsis7."

Some replied to the Big Hit Entertainment post, where they released the EDM version, saying, "Whenever a remix is made, most of the time a member's line disappears. Honestly it's not a difficult task to increase the song by 10-20 seconds & add the lines. Jin's lines were already less & now he just disappeared. What is the process of approving and releasing remixes???", while another one said, "Hey @BigHitEnt We have noticed that in the dynamite remix the voice of SeokJin has been deleted , please we would like them to upload it again but with the voice of Seokjin included, bts are 7."

Another fan said, "In Dynamite Jin got a few lines but it got cut in the EDM remix. Please take good care of Jin. He's also a member and he deserves better. Please reconsider about it @bts_bighit@BTS_twt *"BTS IS 7"* *SEOKJIN* #JinDeservesMore #JinDeservesBetter." "BIGHIT. YOU CREATED BTS. EVERYTHING YOU HAVE IS BECAUSE OF THEM. SO YOU SHOULD UNDERSTAND THAT BTS IS MADE OF 7 PEOPLE NOT 6. GIVE JIN MORE LINES!!!! BTS IS 7," read another tweet. Another worried fan said, "I can't believe Seokjin part was deleted! He almost didn't have part in the standard version already! Stop mistreating the members, as a big company should be aware of these kind of things at this point!"

While another user questioned the band and said, "BTS IS 7 :) PLEASE RESPECT JIN BIG HIT ENTERTAINMENT :) IF YOU DON'T HAVE AN ANSWER FOR US l, YOU WON'T BE IGNORED :) #BTSIS7 #SEOKJIN." Calling it unfair, one user commented, "Jin does'nt have some lines in the mv but @BigHitEnt still choose to cut his part on Dynamite EDM remix version..This is so unfair to him as a seokjin stan this really broke ky heart  and just tor remind you BTS IS 7 and Jin deserves more.. #JinDeservesBetter #SEOKJIN."

And another fan was of the opinion that BTS is missing out the true talent. "Seokjin is a literal angel that doesn’t deserve any of this mistreatment. BTS IS 7. Bighit start recognising all members and treat them all equally. Your missing out on true talent. Jin we cherish you  #BTS #SeokjinDeservesBetter #bighit." Another got really disappointed and said, "This is so sad. Seokjin deserves better. Last time I checked, bts had seven members. He shouldn't have been worrying about if he had enough screen time and his part shouldn't be cut out of the EDM release. I'm highly disappointed BigHit Bts is 7."

Soon, fans speculated that Jin didn't had lines because he is not good in English. A user said, "Waiting for the OT6s to pull up speculating that "oh jin must have wanted to not have lines because he's not confident in english" or "he actually has lines but its mixed with the backing vocals" BTS IS 7 #SeokjinDeservesBetter." Another mocked the band by saying, "Someone said Jin isn't confident in english so that's why he got less lines look ok well I'm so sorry I forgot the rest of bts' discography is in English."

Another fan shared an old interview video of the band and said, "Those people who said that Jin didn't get more lines because he cannot speak English well. They should look at this interview again. Only 2 out of the vocal line made a speech in English, who is Jin and V!"

While another member shared an old picture which Jin shared on his birthday for his fans, "remember when jin wrote a letter for army and the end of it says 'sorry to my international army I am not good at english but I love you' he is so precious he don't deserve to be treated unfair & bad."
