Article: BTS, "We apologize for making you feel uncomfortable with misogyny controversy"

1. [+913, -147] Your character is reflected in the words that you choose to write, whether that be lyrics or even internet comments.

2. [+583, -161] Sigh, both their agency and the group should reflect deep into their bones about this

3. [+531, -177] Who are these guys?

4. [+394, -98] I read the lyrics and wow, really pisses me off

5. [+394, -102] They had to be insane writing that... I thought they were an up and coming boy group but this is forever farewell to you guys. There's nothing "hip hop" about putting down an entire gender like that....

6. [+372, -97] Wow... how could they write lyrics like that...? Gives me goosebumps

7. [+346, -96] The misogyny in our society is crossing so many lines... wake up everyone

8. [+304, -105] It's over for an idol group once you lose your girl fans

9. [+210, -70] Aren't the majority of their fans girls? I guess their fans don't even have any pride... still listening to songs with lyrics like that.

10. [+162, -71] I went back to read the apology in detail and it's just a bunch of excuses

11. [+122, -49] I will never understand misogynistic people. Their own mother is a woman ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹

12. [+111, -50] They were so happy over getting popular recently too, but this is what happens when you screw up, it only takes a moment for it all to crumble. Popularity is like a sand castle. Their lyrics were really bad though.

13. [+53, -25] Lyrics like this are a tough issue... it's on a thin line between being right or wrong and the person writing it needs to be extra careful. I remember some other kid rapping about women spreading their legs like they're at the gynecologist... Why would you ever write something like that?

14. [+24, -1] Big Hit's apology is basically understanding that the lyrics had room for a misogynistic interpretation, not fully admitting that they were.

15. [+43, -26] I'm a BTS fan myself and when I listen to Rap Mon's mixtape, there are a lot of parts where I realize that he screwed up. A few dumb Armys will try to defend him no matter what but I don't think that's right.

For those asking for the lyrics in question, it's in soompi's article.

The translations or at least most don't seem that bad, but like others suggested in that thread, perhaps the meaning is worse in their language.
