Naturally, the video clip sparked a reaction from fandoms, especially ARMY. Many were flabbergasted by the incident.
And to do this during festa month while BTS are celebrating their 10th year anniversary of a very long and successful career too… Shameless!

No way they're still doing this in 2023
especially after most of their fandom abandoned them after their 1-year hiatus in 2014 and then tried to blame their company for why they lost popularity. https://t.co/oK8CC5XNEU

The bap should have gotten what bts had coz they're both hip hop grps is one of the most bizarre delusions ever. First off bts hit it big coz of hyyh a significant shift from their early work. Secondly they first saw success as a performance group. Thirdly their grp dynamic. https://t.co/QJrShxw2Hi

While some have targeted Bang Yongguk rather than the guilty concert-goer, many are also defending him. As those in attendance pointed out, he attempted to silence the crowd.
blame the person who shouted it not the artist, we don’t have much male fans so they are probably just music enjoyers. Also some of you are so low to bring all the things that B.A.P went through just to make yourself feel better, the most toxic fandom in kpop for real https://t.co/Ml7AoUzuin

Not ppl accusing him being pleased w that man's unnecessary yelling just from a 1 second smile when in reality he had to shush the person. Y0ngguk is a very respectable man & for that fandom to accuse him of such is just

B.A.P, which debuted in 2012, was hugely popular, and many of their fans has long believed they could have reached worldwide success like groups, such as BTS and EXO, if not for company TS Entertainment. Still, pitting one group against another, especially at an artist’s concert, is inappropriate. As other fans have pointed out, both groups have been friendly for years too.
