With just about a week left before BTS’s comeback live stage in Seoul’s Gwanghwamun Square, netizens have expressed frustration regarding a recent news report.
In a YTN news clip, they stated that the group would literally be walking down the “King’s Path” for the event.
It is expected that the members staged a scene as they walked along the so-called ‘King’s Path’, starting at the Geunjeongmun Gate inside Gyeonbokgung Palace and continuing through the Heungnyemun Gate and Gwanghwamun Gate.

Seeing this, K-Netizens were appalled that they were acting as if they were “kings”.
