Fans Challenge Edited Jungkook Photos as RM Addresses Hotel Crowds

Images presented online as unedited close-ups of Jungkook spread across several forums, drawing attention to the texture and appearance of his skin. Fans argued that the pictures had been altered to make it look rougher, pointing to footage from the same day that appeared to show his skin looking clear. Supporters criticized the edits and the focus on the singer’s appearance.

The discussion included fans questioning why anyone would spend time changing the photos, while others noted that visible pores are normal. Some also defended Jungkook’s appearance regardless of how his skin looked. The images’ alleged manipulation was not independently confirmed in the source account.

Separately, RM spoke on BTS’s official fan communication platform on October 8 about people gathering outside the group’s hotel in Peru. He said the noise was affecting members and staff, disrupting sleep, and inconveniencing other guests. RM asked people not to wait outside the group’s hotels in upcoming stops in Chile, Brazil, Argentina, and Asian countries. BTS are currently on a world tour, and RM said a lack of rest could affect their concerts.
