BTS Fan Alleges Racial Profiling During ‘The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon’ Amid Jungkook Appearance

A recent incident involving a BTS fan being denied entry to “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” has sparked outrage and discussions about racial profiling and discrimination. The fan, who was excited to see BTS’ Jungkook on the show following the release of his first solo album, “Golden,” on November 6, was left disappointed when they were allegedly barred from entering the studio due to their headscarf.

Fans had gathered in anticipation of the South Korean singer’s appearance, but the situation took a distressing turn when the security team reportedly singled out one of the attendees based on their appearance. The fan took to Twitter to share their experience, expressing their frustration, “Sooo just got racially profiled by security at Jimmy Fallon because of my hijab (headscarf). First time going and not even getting to see JK, so that’s great…”

Furthermore, the fan stated their intention to file a complaint against the security personnel and added, “Never going to Jimmy Fallon again.”

The incident quickly gained attention on social media, with fellow users expressing their support and condemning the alleged act of discrimination. Many emphasized the importance of raising awareness and calling on the show’s host, Jimmy Fallon, to address the issue. One user wrote, “this better be seen by [Jimmy] Fallon, we need to amplify it.”

Another user empathized with the fan, saying, “That’s terrible; I’m so sorry that happened to you. Definitely file that complaint.”

A third user expressed their hope for accountability, stating, “I hope he gets fired. I’m sorry that you had to experience something so terrible!”

This incident comes on the heels of a previous exposé published by The Rolling Stone, in which two staff members and 14 employees of “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” accused the 44-year-old host of “belittling and bullying people.” The accusations were made public two months prior, adding to the growing scrutiny of the show’s environment and practices.

The incident involving the BTS fan highlights the need for greater awareness and sensitivity when it comes to issues of discrimination and racial profiling. It serves as a reminder that there is still work to be done in promoting inclusivity and equal treatment for all individuals, regardless of their appearance or background.
