A lot of ARMY were surprised that Joon thought ARMY might leave or abandon BTS during their military service, & that he became emotional after realizing ARMY were still there waiting for them.
But honestly, Joon and the other BTS members had every reason to feel that way. Do you remember what happened as soon as they enlisted? Many companies, including their own, were busy debuting and promoting new groups, with constant talk about finding the "next BTS". Korean media seemed equally focused on pushing that narrative.
At the same time, boycotters and toxic multis were everywhere, criticizing BTS, dragging their name, and praising others. On top of that, that witch who tried her best to bring them down. Meanwhile, Namjoon was serving in one of the worst military locations near the North Korean border, isolated from his members & the outside world. Other members were also serving separately across the country.
If you were in their position, wouldn’t you have felt the same fears and doubts?
But there is one thing they underestimated: to ARMY, BTS are not just idols who can be easily replaced or forgotten. They are a source of comfort, strength, and countless memories. For many of us, they feel like family, and family cannot be replaced.
se me hace gracioso que ya no se me haga tan wow ver a jungkook, jimin o taehyung mostrando tanta piel porque como que ya me acostumbre con ellos pero ver a yoongi con una polera manga corta??? VER A SEOKJIN MOSTRANDO SUS ABS??? (y de casualidad más encima)… es como un sentimiento DIFERENTE

Guys I think BTS are lowkey blowing up right now, In my 9 years as an ARMY Ive seen this happen before in 2018-2020 period, theres an insane amount of people discovering BTS right now after ARIRANG,
Namjoon not knowing how to answer their juniors when asked how do they keep a team together for this long, it is just proof that there were no recipes for replication to their success, it was destined to happen, spiritually they were the chosen ones and they are a once in a lifetime group, the bond is just unbroken, pure, genuine and real 💜
I really wish their company would get some cultural advisors. Just as a hiatus does not always mean a pause, 낭만 does not translate well as romance. When 🐨 refers to SWIM as as a song with 낭만, it’s more akin to saying that the song is poetic
