A village map showing the family of 'BTS' Jungkook has been shared and has been embroiled in controversy.
The Busan Ilbo announced on the 22nd that the Yeonsan General Social Welfare Center in Yeonje-gu, Busan, together with the Yeonje-gu Community Security Council, issued a village map. This map shows the main facilities of the village, such as tourist facilities.
The problem was where it was in the center of the map. It says 'The house where BTS Jungkook's grandmother used to live(now empty)'. This place is currently classified as a tourist facility in town. There are no residents.
However, it is said that they did not get consent from BTS or nearby residents to mark this place on the map, for this fact most of the residents are dissatisfied.
Resident A said, "I don't know where it is, but young people often come and ask for the location of the place.
There was also an opinion that it was an invasion of privacy to disclose the place where relatives lived without the singer's consent.
The welfare center that produced the village map explained that it was to revitalize tourism.
The official added, "When making the village map, there was an opinion that not only simple information but also interesting elements were included, so we included the singer’s-related place."
However, when the fact became known through social media and online communities, netizens criticized it, such as "It's rude," "It would feel bad if Jungkook found out," and "I don't even want to know where my relatives lived."
