The Guardian gives a FULL SCORE of 5/5 STAR ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ in their review of #BTS's Tottenham Hotspur Stadium Concert in London!
"Pure joy and astonishing versatility at the K-pop Titan’s first UK show in 7 years"
"No matter how drilled we know K-pop bands to be, #BTS’s versatility is still astonishing. The stands literally shake as they thunder through pop-rap crossover Hooligan; Like Animals cements their prowess with balladry, soft & floaty enough to feel like it’s being sung directly to each of the 65,000 people in the room. The industrial-level bangers mid-show are a thrilling energy release and the surprise songs that aren’t usual setlist fixtures seem to delight even the band, who grin and sing along to each other’s parts."
"The joy onstage is reflected back approximately one million-fold. It reverberates through the wall of screams and the sea of lit-up Bomb sticks. They end on a gentle note, motioning to each other to take out their in-ear monitors to hear fans sing Into the Sun back to them."
"A cynical mind might think the in-the-round staging provides more opportunity to sell expensive pit tickets. A cynical mind might see the brands blacked out on the water bottles onstage and think … “clearly Fiji Water didn’t cough up sponsorship”. A cynical mind might behold the light-up “Armybomb sticks” wielded by the crowd and think … “are those mind-control devices?” But the Arirang Tour makes it hard to be cynical about #BTS... I started the show ambivalent and by the end I had a favourite member (Jimin) and an urge to learn Korean. I wanted to make them my wallpaper and bump into them at Duck & Waffle. I didn’t even have a Bomb stick so if they were controlling my mind it was through other means. Whatever #BTS has, it’s potent."

Do not give that BB article any engagement.
They've reposted the same article on X multiple times within just a couple of hours. That certainly appears intended to maximize engagement and keep the story circulating. Don't help amplify it.
There is such an obvious agenda that it is about belittleing and ignoring ARIRANG and also trying to start a negative campaign. Just wait for time to accommodate everything in its place and don’t pay attention especially to billboard when we know them perfectly.

Holding on to the time that slips away. Then savoring each fleeting moment, gracefully, transiently. Reflecting on the weight of time, yet carrying it with lightness. The time <DAZED> KOREA shared with J-HOPE.

Let’s not give this BS more attention. The legal teams will handle this nonsense.
These lawsuits are very common the more successful a song is and typically always get dismissed.
We have a recomeback next week pushing sales and streams! 💪
WE know who has their hands directly in BB's pockets and its labels that have major artists that couldn't out perform or measure up to arirang. BB posting that article basically every hour is another calculated step in trying to discredit 875's success and discourage award voters.
dont forget that the top 4 major music labels in the west ALSO fork out the most $$ for radio play and that perfectly aligns with BB's updated rules for their chart. literally all of this is on purpose. they want to sow doubt into outsiders minds about 875 bc they know that 875 have a dedicated fandom they cant complete with, even with all the money in the world.
this is what insecurity looks like. but all it really does is blatantly reveal their panic. keep buying, keep streaming arirang, keep 875 in the top artists, and even their dirty tricks cant stop us.
it was planned from the beginning for normal to be promoted as the second single after swim, and we have now moved to the second level for longevity. this is an opportunity and a message for us to increase streams and visibility 👀

ONCE AGAIN I'm genuinely SO grateful that BTS is like the only mainstream artist right now who continue to create work that invites a analytical discussions long after the music ends.
Every release, teaser, poster offers something to unpack whether its the songwriting, production, vocal choices, performances, visual direction, cinematography, symbolism, and storytelling all feel intentionally crafted.
In an industry where so much content is designed for quick consumption, BTS is consistently creating and putting out art thats sparking conversations and that's something I never take for granted.
what a coincidence that the 👵🏻 submission period ends in august and what a coincidence that because swim and arirang are the most successful works of 2026 they are suddenly facing accusations. this is not a first and in the end bts is always the winner. let them call armys bots as much as they want, delete streams, accuse us, sooner or later the side that is right and the side that will get stronger is still bts. we have always grown stronger by facing difficulties
