These are JKT48 Members Who Like and Become BTS Fans
The South Korean boyband group, Bangtan Boys or commonly called BTS, is indeed on the rise. The popularity they enjoy today is not only in the country of Ginseng, but throughout the universe.
Yes, you could say BTS is now the most popular boy group. The 7-member group, namely V, J-Hope, Jin, Jimin, RM Jungkook and Suga, has broken several records in the South Korean music industry or even the world.
BTS is also the Kpop boy band with the most awards or awards in history since debuting eight years ago. Well, as an idol who has an idol, it turns out that there are JKT48 members who like BTS, friends.
It must be admitted that the majority of BTS fans -as ARMYs are called – around the world are women. It also reminds us of K-Pop in the 2010s, when the popular group was Super Junior.
JKT48 which incidentally is a female music group that debuted in December 2011 has a total of hundreds of active members or who have graduated, now they have entered the 10th generation.
Of the many members of JKT48, it is natural that they idolize other musicians. It could also be because they are inspired, motivated, and become a reference for enthusiasm in pursuing a career as a singer.
So, who are the JKT48 members who are fans of BTS? Here’s the list:
1. Shania Gracia
2. Yessica Tamara
3. Tan Zhi Hui Celine
4. Aninditha Rahma
5. Amirah Fatin
6. Angelina Christy
As we know Shania Gracia is a big fan of BTS. When JKT48 initially created Instagram for its members, Gracia was very diligent in posting about Jungkook, her favorite BTS member.
Chika or Yessica Tamara is no less fanatical. The girl who was born in September 2002 had visited Seoul just to watch the live performance of the BTS concert.
Then there is Celine, a member of JKT48 from Malaysia who is good at playing this game and also a BTS fan. He once made handicrafts in the form of sewing threads into fabrics in the shape of the BTS logo.
Likewise with Anin, Mira and Christy. The three of them admitted when they were the theater MCs, who said that BTS was their favorite boy band. Anin said that she liked Bangtan Boys’ songs and dance choreography. Both bought BTS Meal McDonald’s.
What is the response of JKT48 fans? Actually, there are many pros and cons of why Jeketi members are more enthusiastic about K-Pop, while the flow of JKT48 music leads to AKB48 in Japan, aka J-Pop.
“In my opinion, it’s natural, they are humans too, they have tastes. But work ethics must be maintained in official accounts, for example, don’t be too open about Kpop. There are even members who don’t know and don’t understand Jpop and 48G at all, I think that’s outrageous.” said Ilham Kurniawan on Facebook.
So it’s not surprising that now it’s rare for JKT48 members to openly post about K-Pop either on Twitter or Instagram social media, to minimize debates between female friends.
