Logan Paul noted the following: “You’re part of One Direction, probably the biggest boyband of all time and you still haven’t replicated their success. I don’t know if there’s anyone else besides K-pop.” ARMY immediately lashed out at Payne for the way he mentions the K-pop industry and its fans, as he seems to be belittling their effort and work.

Furthermore, ARMY points out that he has found a way to minimize the global impact of K-pop and especially BTS.

Where many claim that the only thing he feels is envy.

Following Logan Paul’s comment, Payne responded as follows:

“Yes I think some K-pop bands have reignited the theme. Of course obviously we can also count on 5 seconds of summer.
