K-pop idol names have recently been called for boycotts because they promote various brands that support Israel. This is in the spotlight because K-pop idols are outspoken about it.
In fact, K-pop idols usually always cover the various brands or products they wear. However, some K-pop idols actually show off various products such as Starbucks, McDonald’s, and others openly.
This makes people suspect that K-pop idols are paid to promote some of the boycotted products. Moreover, several of these companies are said to have experienced a decline in income after the boycott issue was intensified due to Israel’s occupation of Gaza, Palestine.
“Lately it seems like idols are getting paid from Starbucks which is actually making the situation worse because they are willing to support and promote brands that finance genocide and kill innocent people just for money, these people are very disgusting, they only care about money, ” wrote the X account @ftvhope recently.
So who are the K-Pop idols who are known to be promoting pro-Israel products? The following is a list of K-pop idols who openly provide their support.
