Death threat made against Jimin of BTS
Published: 15 Jul. 2018, 18:51
The U.S. broadcaster NBC reported on Saturday that the LAPD has confirmed the threat and is currently looking into it.
An anonymous Instagram user posted a photo of a gun and a statement saying that the user was planning to shoot the singer at BTS’s upcoming concert in Los Angeles.
This is the third time that Jimin received a death threat, following similar ones made prior to the band’s performance in Anaheim in April 2017 and a Forth Worth concert in May.
The seven-member group’s forthcoming tour dubbed “Love Yourself” includes a Sept. 5-8 stop at Staples Center. It will start in Seoul on Aug. 25, and the tour will include stops in 10 cities, including London, Paris, Berlin and Amsterdam.
