Amid the announcement and as the event gets nearer, a clip has been shared from the MMAs in 2018 showing BTS returning to the seats, and as all the idols stood to bow, it showed that the members of BLACKPINK remained seated.

Some fans found it funny that the clip was being brought up 7 years after the event, with some saying it wasn’t that deep.

It’s been seven years and they’re still mad 😭 https://t.co/10fNCkpewM pic.twitter.com/DHaiccx9Tc

Yet, other netizens hit back at the members, saying how disrespectful it was not to bow, especially considering the seniority, and that all the others were doing it. Others used it as an opportunity to highlight BTS’s achievements in comparison to other groups, noting that these other groups have been criticized for similar behavior.

The way I never knew this… OMG this girls are so mean.

Not that they should stand up but from their culture this shit matters.
