BTS ARMY is demanding an apology from NCT's fandom after a recent controversy involving an impersonation scandal.
According to South Korean news outlet Money Today, an individual, suspected to be an NCTzen (a fan of NCT) or a supporter of Min Heejin, allegedly posed as a BTS ARMY member to organize a protest against BTS member Suga.
The protest involved sending trucks and funeral wreaths to HYBE headquarters and Suga's residence, calling for his withdrawal from the group due to a recent drinking and driving incident.

Suspicions arose when the organizer's email address was accidentally exposed during fundraising efforts for the protest. Despite the organizer's denial of being an NCT fan, it was discovered that they had participated in NCT127 fan events, which require substantial fan engagement, such as purchasing large quantities of albums.

The incident has added to the ongoing scrutiny surrounding Suga, who has been targeted by anti-fans following his involvement in the recent controversy. The funeral wreaths, traditionally a symbol of mourning in Korean culture, were used in the protest to express disappointment and call for Suga's removal from BTS.
