"1. To SHINee
Hello, this is BTS's fan club, ARMY.
Before I start, the person writing this right now will represent all ARMYs in relaying this letter of apology to those of SHINee World.
Not too long ago, many different sites, including Nate Pann, kept posting content stating that BTS plagiarized SHINee. There were a couple thousands of comments posted onto Pann, showing how much impact it had. Among those, our fandom left strong criticism, cursing out your family, making personal offenses, and other speech for which I apologize firstly in this writing.
I acknowledge that our fandom's first course of action was poor and thoughtless. While verbal warfare was raging on, we were spitting out a lot of things like provocative words to one another, and through our bias, there was no distinguishing what was wrong and what aspects we had to acknowledge and apologize for. We now concede to everything that we've done wrong, and we apologize.
The apology we promised was given later than we thought for which we also apologize. It took a lot of time because we had been unable to mediate on our opinions within the fandom. We relay our apologizes to all of those in SHINee World who had been waiting for this post.
We apologize for everything: putting down the words of the Shawols no matter what by stating that it was a common concept; greatly ridiculing or criticizing SHINee and SHINee World; and circulating unconfirmed truths. We also apologize for our inability to act with discernment from the position of fans who like, hold dear, and love somebody.
We mentioned things from the past while speaking rudely, and we are very embarrassed of and want to apologize for overreacting. I'm yet unsure as to how this writing will be taken by SHINee World, but I wrote this letter of apology because I want to relay a desire to apologize somehow. We will try not to disappoint you again in the future. I apologize once again.
Posted by the entire BTS fan club, ARMY.
2. To B2ST
Firstly, not too long ago, writing was posted on Enter2Talk that the lyrics written by B2ST's Junhyung and Rap Monster were alike. We acknowledge that at the time, we reacted quickly and prematurely. We want to apologize for the many severe curses, violent language, and personal attacks aimed against many Beauties.
Also, we apologize for saying abusive things and making indiscriminate criticism against not only those in the fandom but also against the singers. Additionally, we are embarrassed of and apologetic about laughing at, ignoring, or regarding the lyrics that Junhyung really holds dear to his heart as unoriginal lyrics however we wanted. We, ARMYs, are even more careful because we know that we brought this upon ourselves. We are even more sorry and even more sorry for our rash handling of the situation by lashing out and making it seem that an occurrence the Beauties found unfair was no big deal.
We are all alike in that we're fans who created a fandom and did activities as fans because we liked and held someone dear, yet we were unable to understand both sides, and we also apologize for messing with something sensitive. We apologize for maliciously saying provocative words or talking about malicious situations like "Beauty bugs," "has-been," and "departure."
We, as all of ARMY, sincerely apologize for the personal attacks, attacks on family and friends, and words that should never be said during the verbal warfare. We apologize to not only the fandom but also the artists for the words of ridicule and disregard.
Additionally, we want to talk about the slogan that was posted onto Enter2Talk right before. We wish that you would inquire about it to the one who produced the slogan. The phrase 'Let's see for a long time' is not a phrase that ARMYs use, and it seems like a special case. However, we will decrease an overlap with that to the best of our abilities, and we will respond immediately when the need for an explanation, apology, or response to curiosity is necessary.
I'm not sure as of yet how this writing will be taken by Beauties, but I wanted to relay our desire to apologize even a little, so I wrote up an apology. How would you be able to forgive us for the harm and trauma from our sayings and doings through just this letter of apology? I have nothing else I can say. Only that I'm sorry and I apologize again. We will work hard in order to not disappoint you again. Once again, I apologize.
