[NB] Jungkook reveals he didn't eat for 5 days while shooting 'Butter'

[Usagi.]

Hmm, some (actually most) of y'all should at least be honest and just throw jabs at him instead of pretend you care about people with eating disorders or body dysmorphia.

Otherwhise I don't see how it's even fair to put most responsability over something that isn't just a huge issue in SK industry, but everywhere, on Jungkook shoulders. He grew up on this industry, it's completely fucked up that idols treat extreme fastings and abnormal diets with so much naturality, but I guess most of y'all are so ready to jump on him to even try to stop and think why. It's simply because it's normal for them, it's expected, even if It's extremely unhealty.

This is far from being just an issue in SK, far from being just an issue with idols. It's everywhere, people take drastic measures to lose weight everywhere, some will do anything, because most of us were brainwashed about what's an ideal body and what isn't, get new weird miracle diets every week. The issue goes way beyond of this thread clearly initial intention (which is just start a dragging fest without thinking too much about it).

Now honestly I hope you guys know that people with body dysmorphia and eating disorders need actual help, because their issues will continue regardless, it doesn't matter if their ~faves~ tell them they should eat three meals a day, or eat every 3 hours, it's not as simple as that.

They say they care about people with eating disorders, while jungkook is sorta actually one of them. But they aren't concerned about jungkook who also has issues, they just blame him instead. It's disgusting.

1. Make excuses by blaming Korean society 
2. Trivialize the action 
3. “Other people have done it”
4. Make accusations of concern trolling 

The ARMY playbook, every single time

edit: can’t believe I forgot the “mistranslation!” tactic, from the post up top. That one is ESSENTIAL.

I don't want to be rude or anything but people here defending Jungkook and all, saying he is a victim and all... what are they doing for your idol to get help? to improve his knowledge about the topic?

When I call someone out is not cause I want to drag someone out and point at it, I do hope people acknowledge this topic that going on for 5 days without eating anything at all it's not a healthy behaviour, is not something to brag, is not something to share even if you do it as an innocent coment.

Stop babying your idols, they are human to they need to be called out and learn, if whole army who love their boys and give all this awards to them focus also in the message bts themselves promote I think a change could happen. 

Lastly as armies speak this is not a jungkook problem, but recognize how popular and influencial he is, care for him as much as you defend him.

1. I think I made myself clear when I said, twice, that it's not just a SK problem.

2. I'm pretty sure I'm not the one trivializing the action, since to me the problem is bigger and not just around Jungkook.

3. Yeah, many people have done it, everywhere, and that's why it's a bigger problem.

4. I still think most people don't actually care and are here just because it's Jungkook.

Yes, this. It’s not like we’re trying to cancel him or anything.

Ya, it is a problem everywhere, which is why we  ALL care, even pinkpanda, despite you thinking some don’t, and we can all do our part in trying to make it better. Surely you’ve heard the phrases “change starts with you.” “be the change you want to see in the world.” We can all make small changes. Jungkook is not going to fix his body image issues overnight, and he’s not going to change the world overnight. Nobody was even saying that. At the very least, he can change the way he talks publicly about bodies and diets. There is a reason why we see so many “don’t try this at home” or “consult your doctor” disclaimers for anything risky health-wise.

Uh, you were at fist trying to link everything I said about the issue being bigger to me being an Army while also accusing me of saying things I haven't, so I'm going to keep my opinion, but ty.

This is sad. I wished he consulted a professionals like dietitian, nutritionist, etc. The pressure of being an idol is real.

This is why I’m glad that I live a somewhat normal life. I don’t have to have people commenting on my weight whenever I gain a pound here & there. But I hope JK doesn’t have to go through this again.
