As per an Xaccount named idoitsueit, the private campaign was running to raise funds for the next protest.

The post shared on X read, ''We have reached the target amount for the fundraiser and have closed it. Thank you to everyone who participated in the campaign, even though it was kept private. Starting tomorrow, the truck and the flower wreath campaigns will take place together. During the campaigns, we’ll have a staff managing the flower wreaths, and the trucks will be circulating around the bustling areas of Seoul even on the weekend. We appreciate your interest and support!"

Before this, wreaths with flowerswere being sent to HYBE headquarters asking Suga to step down or be removed from the famous group of seven.

Soon after protest trucks went viral on the internet, ARMY was quick to defend the BTS member.

A person wrote, "This is the most absurd thing I've seen in a while. Sending trucks is meaningless when the police is doing their investigation. Don't do something just because you want to."

Another wrote, ''I understand that u can’t release a statement yet until the whole investigation is over. But what about the useless trucks/wreaths? Those are roaming around and within the parameters of ur premises,and u still won’t lift a finger?''

Another person wrote, "You don’t understand, he is everything to me."

BTS member Suga has found himself in the middle of the controversy afterhe was caught riding an electric scooter by the policewhile intoxicated on August 6near the Nine One Hannam apartment building.
