SUGA (BTS) was misrepresented in Dilraba Dilmurat's movie! Using unauthorized photos? Fans shocked

SUGA (BTS) suddenly appeared in a scene of the movie "The Sword and Rose" with incorrect information, causing the international fan community to be outraged and demanding the film crew to apologize and edit the content.

On July 28, the TV series "The Sword and Roses" officially aired after 4 years of delay. Starring Dilraba Dilmurat in the lead role, the series quickly attracted attention when it explored the painful topic of human trafficking - an issue that once shocked Chinese public opinion. After only 11 minutes of airing, the series recorded a rating exceeding 2%, rising to the top of the national viewership ratings.

However, the film’s impressive achievements were quickly overshadowed by a controversial detail. Audiences discovered that SUGA – a member of the famous boy band BTS – suddenly appeared in a sensitive scene, causing outrage among international fans.

Specifically, in the scene depicting "The Wall of Lost Children", a childhood photo of SUGA was put on screen with a controversial caption. The person in the photo has the surname Li, is Chinese, and has been missing. This startled many viewers, because the image used is reminiscent of real cases, just as the movie had advertised.

Using the image of an internationally renowned person like SUGA in a context related to human trafficking without the official consent of the individual or his management company has caused a backlash from audiences and fans. Whether a celebrity or not, exploiting personal images without permission, especially in sensitive content, is a serious violation of ethics and law.

After the incident was discovered, the ARMY community (BTS's fandom name) quickly spread the information on social networking platforms such as Weibo, Twitter and online forums. Keywords related to the incident were continuously pushed to the top of search results, attracting hundreds of thousands of interactions and comments.

Fans have not only expressed anger at the misuse of SUGA’s image, but have also stressed that the footage itself could cause serious misunderstandings about his identity and origin. Changing the nationality of a Korean artist and framing it in the context of a human trafficking case in China not only affects his personal reputation but also has potential international consequences.

Although the incident has exploded on social media platforms and become one of the most popular topics on Weibo, the crew of "The Sword and Rose" has yet to make any official response. This silence has further fueled the wave of outrage, especially in the context of Chinese entertainment products being increasingly closely followed by international audiences.

Some opinions from international netizens said that if this was just a technical error or a mistake in post-production, the producer could completely apologize and edit the content. However, if the image was used intentionally, the problem is not simply a "professional incident", but an infringement on personal honor and could lead to legal consequences.

This incident once again raises the alarm about the use of personal images in the film and media industry. Whether the image is of a celebrity or an ordinary person, every individual has the right to protection of identity and privacy.

"The Sword of Roses" may be a hot name on the Chinese screen, but the unauthorized use of SUGA (BTS)'s image in a sensitive context is causing serious doubts about the film's reputation. Although there has been no response from the producer, the pressure from the global fan community is increasing by the hour, demanding a satisfactory explanation. Respecting image copyright and personal honor is not only a minimum code of ethics, but also a mandatory requirement in a professional media environment. Any action that goes beyond this limit will sooner or later have to pay the price.
