BTS’s RM refutes billboard manipulation allegations, “It’s not right to criticize ARMYs”

RM of the group BTS clarified the controversy over the manipulation rumor of the Billboard charts. In an interview with Billboard on the 26th, BTS mentioned about some allegations that the fan club ARMY manipulated the Billboard chart rankings. Shin Young-jae, CEO of BTS’ agency Big Hit Music, also said, “I know that the improvement of the music market sometimes makes some people scratch their heads. I don’t think the US market is where some music can easily top the charts just by the number of downloads.  In many ways, the impact of BTS’ songs has been shown, and I’m proud of that achievement.” 
Meanwhile, BTS released a new remix of ‘Butter’ featuring Megan Thee Stallion simultaneously around the world at 1 pm on the 27th.
