World-famous K-pop sensation BTS is gearing up for the release of its upcoming anthology album Proof. With preparations in full swing, ARMYs are excited about the album as it will contain the group’s extensive discography divided into three-CD tracklists with the addition of three new and unheard songs.
However, fans are upset as they discovered that the group’s main vocalist, Jungkook, has not been registered on the KOMCA (Korean Music Copyright Association) for the debut single No More Dream. The situation has seemed to irk fans as the singer is the co-composer of the track.
ARMYs have taken to social media to trend with the hashtag #BighitRespectJungkook and are stating that the group's agency, BIGHIT MUSIC, must treat their artists better and give due credit to those working hard on productions.
Enraged fans call out BIGHIT MUSIC for not crediting BTS's Jungkook for No More Dream
With the group’s anthology album Proof nearing release with each passing day, fans are eagerly waiting for the album with various tracks from the group’s vast discography including demo versions, studio versions, and three new songs, one of which is the title track of the album Yet To Come.
On May 12, 2022, ARMYs noticed that Jungkook’s name was not registered on KOMCA for the track No More Dream, despite him being the co-composer of the song. Fans expressed their disappointment as Jungkook was only 15 when the track was released. This proves that the idol began making music at a young age, yet his agency, BIGHIT MUSIC, failed to properly credit him for his work.
No More Dream features on the poster release of the group’s Tracklist-CD1 and upon a closer look, fans noticed that Jungkook, being the co-composer of the song, hasn’t been given due credit. To protest, fans have taken to Twitter to trend with the hashtag, #BighitRespectJungkook, voicing their dissatisfaction towards the company.
Fans also stated that BTS' Jungkook played a major part in producing the song Jamais vu, as mentioned by his fellow group mates. Jamais vu is a part of the group’s album, Map of The Soul: Persona, which was released in 2019. However, the agency has not given any official credit to Jungkook for his contributions.
While fans are enthusiastically anticipating the release of BTS’s new album Proof, many are finding problems with the three tracklist CDs. Previously, fans stated that Tracklist-CD2 has a minimum of one solo song per member, however, Jimin’s solo track Filter gained negative attention as it credited producer Bobby Chung, who was earlier embroiled in a physical assault controversy.
Fans also pointed out that group member Jimin wasn't given due credit for the track Blood Sweat and Tears, and if it wasn't for Jin to bring up the topic, fans wouldn't have known that Jimin created the melody for it.
Proof is set to be released on June 10, 2022.
