The tattoo artist in the leaked photo has finally spoken up!
After Big Hit issued a statement firmly denying that BTS Jungkook was dating a tattoo artist after photos of him hugging her from the back surfaced, she also decided to speak up.
On September 17, the tattoo artist shared this message to her instagram:
“The relationship rumors with Jungkook are absolutely untrue.
I am posting this because of the words spreading online and those who are causing misunderstandings impersonating me.
I didn’t say anything because I thought it was an obvious truth that people wouldn’t believe me, interpret my words as they wish, and that I would receive even more criticism.
Again, I would like to state that it is absolutely not true that I am dating Jungkook or that I tattooed my initials on him.
We’re only close friends, I feel very apologetic since it seems that fans were extremely hurt in addition to myself and the people around me.
I won’t say anything more.
I would just like to make it clear that I am not ignoring this.”
In addition to that, rapper Hashswan was wrongly dragged into this situation as well. Some fans believed it was him in the photo and not Jungkook, he was harassed by negative malicious comments and posted a long statement begging fans to stop harassing him. You can read about it here.

What do you think of this situation?

this is so stupid……I wish idols could just say fxxk off to fans and leave their personal life alone. Companies give fans too much freedom just because they buy albums and tickets and spend so much more. No wonder idols are always depressed, they have to endure their bat sh!t crazy fans on a daily.
Idols are human. They are not objects you can possess. Their job is to entertain everyone with their talents. To give joy to people. They have their own lives just like you. Give them a break! Do not be too possessive to the point that you are hurting them. Love, admire and be happy for them.
If the K-Pop industry or the Korean entertainment ministry continues letting this happen, more and more idols are going to become victims of depression, social stigma and suicide. Haven’t enough people died and pleaded already? What will it take for these crazy people to stop? Laws SERIOUSLY need to be put up against such things.
