BTS Jungkook's Make-Tokyo-Great-Again hat controversy forces brand to apologise after sell-out frenzy: ‘The design isn't political, but…'
BTS' Jungkook was discharged on June 12, and the first thing he did was to apologise for a controversial fashion choice. The youngest member of the South Korean band was seen rehearsing in a behind-the-scenes photo for J-Hope's 'Hope on the Stage Final' at Goyang Sports Complex, where he was set to perform a special segment. In the photo, the K-pop star was spotted wearing a black cap that read Make Tokyo Great Again. While it might have looked like a harmless fashion pick to global audience, in Korea, it triggered massive backlash given the painful history between Japan and South Korea. Riding the controversy, the brand behind the cap, which earlier scored free promo and saw the stock fly off shelves, was then forced to apologise and clarify that the design was never intended to be political. Also read: BTS' fans debate if Jungkook knew history before wearing Make Tokyo Great Again cap; K-pop star apologises for being 'careless' Jungkook wasted no time, penning a long note on Weverse before HYBE could step in, saying he had discarded the hat right away. However, soon after, the brand BASICKS behind the cap jumped on the free promo. Taking to their Instagram Stories, they boasted about being completely sold out, even using the Seven crooner's pic to ride the wave. But a few hours later, as Korean netizens fumed with anger, the Japanese brand was forced to release a statement. They apologised to anyone who felt uncomfortable but clarified they never meant for the design to be political. 'That said, we believe in the freedom to express ideas through fashion. This design was not intended to convey any political stance; rather, it was an iconic way to express our hopes for a thriving Tokyo fashion scene.' Meanwhile, Jungkook kept taking heat, and HYBE's attempt to handle the mess only made it worse. Fans called out the agency for trying to manipulate the media and divert attention from the controversy. Right after the hat drama blew up, NewJeans, another HYBE group under its subsidiary ADOR, got dragged into a separate mess. The five-member girl group is already locked in a lawsuit against the agency, seeking separation, making it clear things aren't smooth between them. Then, out of nowhere, old clubbing photos of Danielle and Haerin resurfaced. Some claimed HYBE deliberately leaked these pictures to shift the focus away from Jungkook's scandal. Also read: BTS' RM writes anniversary letter to ARMY, shares 'strange' feelings: 'I want to walk romantically with you all' Even in America, where K-pop and BTS enjoy a huge fanbase, the controversy didn't sit well as the cap echoed the same energy as Donald Trump's MAGA hat. Trump's administration is currently facing heavy scrutiny because of anti-immigrant policies, including those targeting Asian-Americans. In South Korea, the matter was even more sensitive, and it came just days after aespa member Karina got dragged into a similar mess. It is widely believed that Tokyo's governor, Yuriko Koike, who has been accused of holding anti-Korean views, once used similar wording.

Happy Father's Day: A unique binge list to get you and your pops in the feels today!
There'll be the gifts and the cards and the first-attempts at a complicated recipe, you know your dad is going to (try his best to) love. But nothing beats some good one-on-one quality time. That too on a Sunday afternoon after all that morning chaos! And we have just the list sorted for you and the man of the day (but really, everyday)! Ted, a work-focused and emotionally distant man, forms a deep connection with his son Billy after his wife, Joanna, suddenly leaves them. But their new life is disrupted when Joanna comes back, seeking full custody of Billy. But will he let go that easy? After being fired for speaking out against the questionable ethics in his industry, sports agent Jerry Maguire sets out to start his own agency. However, he struggles to rebuild and is only able to secure a single client. Who helps? The woman dreamily in love with his aura, and her little know-it-all boy. Will, who initially joins single parent meetings to attract women, unexpectedly befriends Marcus, a lonely and troubled 12-year-old. Through their growing friendship, Will begins to mature and take responsibility, while supporting Marcus with his schoolwork and personal struggles. Sometimes, kids teach adults way more than the other way round. When his son is captured from the Great Barrier Reef and taken to Sydney, Marlin, a timid clownfish, teams up with a forgetful companion and sets off on a daring adventure to rescue him. If you remember the plot by heart, the nostalgia will still have your eyes seating pretty good. Frank, a single man raising his exceptionally gifted niece Mary, finds himself in a custody battle with his mother, Evelyn. Determined to have Mary finish her late daughter's unfinished work, Evelyn is willing to go to great lengths to take control of Mary's future. But Mary's heart and gut knows who's right for her — as does Frank. PSA: Keep the tissues ready, for ALL of these films. And while you're at it, we wish you and your pops, a very Happy Father's Day!

This Father's Day cake costs more than five iPhones! Check its shocking price
Celebrating Father's Day often involves heartfelt gestures, and surprising your dad with a delicious cake remains a timeless tradition. But one particular cake recently caught the internet's attention—not for its flavor, but for its staggering price tag of ₹5 lakh. The absurd cost left social media buzzing with disbelief and laughter, turning a simple dessert into an online sensation. This unusual story began circulating just before Father's Day, set for June 15, when a screenshot from a popular food delivery platform surfaced. The image showed a curated list of cakes for the special occasion. While most items were reasonably priced—for example, a half-kilogram butterscotch cake listed at ₹400 and a similar-sized red velvet cake at ₹599—what stood out was a 500-gram hazelnut chocolate cake inexplicably priced at ₹500,000. The viral screenshot quickly made its way across platforms, stirring curiosity and disbelief. Most people assumed it to be a simple error, likely due to a technical fault or a misplaced decimal. But that didn't stop the internet from jumping in with jokes, sarcasm, and witty commentary. The image was initially posted on X (previously known as Twitter), where the user remarked on the suspiciously high cost and encouraged others to take a closer look. The bizarre listing soon gained even more traction on Reddit, with users questioning the pricing logic and sharing humorous responses. — aur_btau_kya (@aur_btau_kya) Comments flooded in with a mix of disbelief and mockery. One user cheekily pointed out that the listing at least included a 40% discount, while another joked that for ₹5,000, they could buy five cakes—and for ₹5 lakh, they could get five iPhones. Another user took it further, saying that in their village, that amount could buy an entire bakery. Some tried to bring reason into the mix, simply stating that the figure was an obvious mistake. Yet that didn't stop others from noticing another hilarious detail—an additional delivery fee of over ₹8,000, which only added fuel to the comedy. While this was likely nothing more than a typo or backend error, the situation quickly spiraled into a viral moment, reminding everyone just how easily a small glitch can entertain the masses. A cake meant to sweeten Father's Day instead turned into a digital comedy show—with netizens serving up slice after slice of hilarious takes.
