After being spammed, the singer took to his Twitter account to end this toxicity.
In one of his tweets he wrote, ‘I don’t usually pay any mind to things like this, but something has to be said. This dangerous, toxic, internet screaming match between ‘fandoms’ has to stop. I’m 28 years old, so it doesn’t really mean anything to me when some person I don’t know writes a nasty message to me.’
He continued, ‘…saying things like “I used BTS for clout”. I don’t know what that means- I love those guys and they are super talented.’
