“Y'ALL ARE SO UNSERIOUS”: Netizens react to BTS’ j-hope’s cutout phone case as the idol captures photo from fan’s cellphone

BTS' j-hope is in Singapore right now as part of his Hope on the Stage World Tour, and once again, another incident involving the K-pop idol has drawn the attention of fans. The spontaneous moment occurred during one of the fan events organized by the hosts, in which j-Hope was asked by a couple of fans for photos while interacting with them.

The moment- a fan asking a celeb for a picture, may seem like a fleeting gesture, but what the fans' fancy was that the phone case was adorned with the pop star's own face. The gigantic size of the phone case only added to the absurdity of the situation as fans gathered to watch j-hope grinning at the oversized phone case.

Fans around him gathered to capture the moment on their own devices, and the clips of the incident went viral on social media. Users flocked to social media to laugh at the latest episode of fan creativity:

"Y'ALL ARE SO UNSERIOUS (i need one too)", joked one fan.

"Lol, I know Hobi must be cracking up. Army is indeed funny", quipped another.

"Omg this has me laughing so much", another fan chimed in.

"OK now. I like me some crazy merch, but that's going too far. Like how do you even carry that thing around with you?", questioned a fourth user

The size of the phone case became an instant sensation on the internet, with fans making demands to manufacturers to produce some for them as well. While some poked fun at the lack of tact displayed at the fan event, others kept the laughter train going:

"I want a bangtan bomb with them talking about the funny things they get to see with armys", demanded one fan

"Wait thats a phone case?!! where do you guys get these made", wondered another

"Subtle", another fan commented, with a hint of sarcasm.

"Lmfao where do you guys even find this things from", laughed another
