The Reason Why (G)I-DLE’s Miyeon Apologized to BTS’s Jungkook

Anything can happen on live shows! Whether in news reports or entertainment programs, it is not uncommon to find moments when something unusual was broadcast on TV to thousands of viewers simultaneously during the broadcast of topics that had little or no connection with what was aired before the blunder.

The most common situations occur mainly when presenters get the names of people, objects or products they are presenting wrong, as well as when small incidents occur due to a slip-up, such as falls in real time or destruction of objects on the set, causing slight embarrassment to those involved and laughter to those watching.

Although it is easy to remember national examples on the subject, such as when the journalist Carlos Tramontina said “Six and bus” on Globo’s Radar SP in 2019, combining the time and the news that he was going to present about the buses in the capital of São Paulo, creating a fun viral on the internet, it is worth remembering that in the world of k-pop, gaffes also happen, since Miyeonfrom (G)I-DLE, revealed that a “mistake” she made live at an awards show left her embarrassed to the point of apologizing to another idol: Jungkookfrom BTS.
