“I feel you honestly because he is my bro. He did show and had some bad influence on the next generation, but I can’t stop my love for him though. You know he knows what he did was wrong and everything, but let’s not make this whole game commercial and sh-t though,” he wrote.
Bobby continued by admitting he still loves B.I. and asked fans to support him.
“I love him as much as you love him. Let’s not forget he’s a good dude. Let’s give him a chance to make it up to you. Forgiveness is the most noble thing that a human being can do,” he wrote.
In June 2019, unsettling information came to light regarding B.I., involving his attempt to acquire marijuana and LSD back in 2016. These illicit substances were sourced through a female drug dealer, and it was reported that the rapper did indeed consume the marijuana he had obtained. Furthermore, allegations suggested that Kim Hanbin managed to elude police charges at the time.
B.I. is currently preparing for his next comeback with the EP ‘Love or Loved Part 2’. In related news, the remaining iKON members have reclaimed their group trademarks after leaving YG Entertainment.
