i hope jungkook and jimin are okay… and i hope that captain of the yacht gets his license revoked. why is it so hard to show basic human decency?? filming someone without their consent and then saying after that nobody even knows them like what are you even after????

The link below appears to be another one of the disrespectful comments by Scott Eric Lauman from Set Adrift Yacht Charters. You may want to delete this even though Jimin looks cute. They didn't want to be filmed whether being business or personal reasons.https://t.co/Na68ZS8tsH
