Amid the World Cup, YouTuber N3on is going viral after speaking to some Korean fans during the show.

He asked them about their favorite BTS song, but seemed confused when they said they didn’t know the group. The fans then turned the question around and explained they liked BLACKPINK and got angry when the YouTuber said, “Who’s that?” before sharing insults towards him and asking if he was “gay” due to not knowing.

In the comments, it was used as a way of hitting back at BLACKPINK and the fans.

The concept of a Korean living abroad that doesn’t know BTS but knows BP 😂😂😂

Sometimes the lies haters try to spin rather ends up making them look stupid. And him getting heated the non Korean hasn’t heard of his faves is some mad audacity

This is the reality of kpop groups outside this app. BTS is the only relevant ones. Even with all the media play, BP couldn’t reach BTS’s impact
