the answer is actually in the doc. RM said that the life of a kpop idol is short lived. and BTS outlived that timeline, so now nor them or korea know how to react it. and hence the discomfort & fear from antis to if it goes on, will it leave room for the rest?
just bcs they’re the biggest band doesn’t mean they can churn out ideas overnight. knowing how critical they are rn they want to make sure the release surpasses their growth!! mind u, they were in the military, they weren’t sitting in a formal music training the entire time 🙄🙄
bts feeling pressured to rush a whole album in a quarter of a year for their biggest comeback and sharing their worries for their sound, what they would show... this is why it INFURIATED me when i saw yall complaining over "lack of content" they were squeezed dry for this!+
