They wrote on its official Twitter handle that they are against racism and violence with the hashtag BlackLivesMatter:
“We stand against racial discrimination. We condemn violence. You, I and we all have the right to be respected. We will stand together.”
우리는 인종차별에 반대합니다.

We condemn violence.
You, I and we all have the right to be respected. We will stand together.#BlackLivesMatter— 방탄소년단 (@BTS_twt) June 4, 2020
As soon as the post appears on social media, the hashtag went viral among BTS ARMY and started another wave of donations with a new hashtag, MatchAMillion.
