- [+887, -300] But...a pregnant woman was denied surgery and gave birth to a baby in the ambulance. How was it possible for him to receive surgery right away even after testing positive for corona?
- [+444, -80] So many kids here can't read properly...he got surgery today after he went in Sunday afternoon for a test for corona and found out he had appendicitis..
- [+306, -9] I read somewhere that Jimin donated 100 million won twice this year for sick kids with cancer. I hope he can recover quickly and come back on stage...we'll wait for you.
- [+226, -13] Get well soon, let's meet each other in good health.
- [+176, -30] I hope our treasure is restored back to health quickly..
- [+106, -9] The level of the comments...he didn't have surgery right away, he came in the afternoon the day before, got an exam and had surgery the next morning. Those accusing him of discrimination must be suffering from an inferiority complex..
- [+59, -1] He's a public figure, a celebrity, who just got diagnosed with appendicitis + corona, please send him your strength...if something goes wrong and you're cursing him like this, won't it be a pity?
- [+58, -1] He's someone that's more influential than any Korean diplomat. We wish you a speedy recovery. Find strength!
- [+47, -1] Did Jimin ask for preferential treatment for surgery after he was confirmed corona? So why is he getting cursed for receiving surgeryㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ. He just got diagnosed with corona while being treated for appendicitis, please send him your strength.
- [+37, -0] Why are people getting upset when he's the one that's suffering?
