idk why stays getting brave you’re favs collabed with Marvel (deadpool) and Arcane (at its peak) while bts was in the military and they still couldn’t even touch 2018/19 BTS the only thing those fads have going for them is Billboard 200 from mass buying album with 10M streams…
and you could tell that 2nd-3rd gen k-pop stans weren’t expecting BTS to get this big and make it this far because they had this elitist mindset that a bunch of poor boys under a poor company didn’t have the sources to compete with their already privileged faves
