I really want BTS to date and be happy and be human. I want them to fall in love with someone who is going to treat them with respect and humane. I also want delusional ARMY to stay the F*** out their love life.

I'm one of those people who think BTS may not come back together. Maybe a reunion tour in the far future but not old BTS. That being said I can't wait for Jimin specifically to put out his album. He is going to SLAY. He isn't even my bias.

Very well said. Thank you. It was very emotional to me because seeing RM crying and knowing the members were afraid to disappoint us was heartbreaking. I appreciate their sincerity and their artistry so much. I'll support them no matter what 💜

I get what you were saying about the 'Hiatus' thing. And you're not wrong, I was just trying to explain another point of view, one that unfortunately was being spread like wildfire. Just because other people have said they were going on 'hiatus' and then dipped completely, doesn't mean BTS will and that irritated me most that fans who claimed to have supported them for so long were even using this as a crutch to kick dirt at BTS.
These guys are not 1D, they're not like anyone else. ARMY knows how close these guys are. They are family, brothers and it annoyed me so many really thought this was them just trying to dip.
I'm glad you guys get it though, and didn't jump right on this 'oh they're def. splitting up, this is the end,' like some people have been saying- To me, you guys are way more ARMY than those fuckers. lol.
I like being able to say what my thoughts are, and explain if I see a need to, and I try to explain and express my thoughts in a not-so-bitchy way.
I also prefer to listen to your thoughts first. It helps me to be able to have these kind of back and forth with you guys, it also helps me know if there's something I might want to explain more or anything like that.
So of course I always watch the WHOLE video you guys put out lol. It's kind of a need to know where your thoughts are at, and I'm interested to hear your views. That's the whole ass point of reactors. And you guys never let me down with that. I love your talks and I will always appreciate the time you guys set aside to give us great content.
I adore you all, hope everyone's taking care. Don't work too hard.💜

Sometimes I wish we had a bigger platform for you to drop these essays to really do them justice . Yet you still dropping them in our comments makes them special. You know me , if I’m wrong I’ll take that , as far as the hiatus thing, I just didn’t take it as negative from BTS , because like you said they’re not machines and they’ve given Army an insane amount of content in a 9 year span. For reference I don’t think Michael Jackson or Beyoncé have the same amount of content . Obviously they’re 2 American artists but still…
I’m just ready for these guys to grow and spread wings in however they see fit. Personally after reading Tae’s interview ,I def expect some jazz on his album. I will see Hobi at Lollapalooza in Chicago 🥳. I’m supporting all of them wholeheartedly. Only thing that upset me , was the guys feeling guilty and like they were unable to speak and move freely. I’m always artist first in these situations, so I took what they said at face value ( hiatus thing aside) and support them. I truly appreciate and love you back for actually listening to what ALL of us said before responding or assuming. You truly are the golden redeemer 🏆biggest of Borahaes 💜

I'm just disappointed of K media, they didn't need a translation, they knew the exact word the boys were talking and using but they STILL manipulate it, even Namjoon didn't expect them to watch the whole 1 hour video, at least spread the news truthfully, and they didn't, they chose to be as manipulative as they can be..smh..as if they the K media waited this to happen and try to squeeze this "news" for their advantage..anyways, recent announcement for the boys solo project brighten ARMY mood so much, and Taehyung? Wow..😊 interesting choice of ig posts 😉

Couldn't agree more, I was devastated when I saw Namjoon worried so much that's he felt guilty, but I still am very happy because all of ARMY will get to see , listen and buy their solo works soon. Tae said 90 percent of us will support them, and I'm sure ARMY will be 100 percent on it. Nick said fans guilt tripped them, well I know ARMY will never, casual fans probably 😅. ARMY on my TL at first kinda confused and sad, but they came to term of realizing the boys need this and in mere second ARMY straight up (as usual) being supportive and understanding bcs of their love for the boys. There's no way ARMY not being supportive, Tae said it clearly. Can't wait for the Hobi (sort of ) debut album in July and lollapalooza

And to add I feel so bad that they feel so guilty for feeling tired. They are not machines literally RM said he felt that he’s just the leader, writer, translator, etc. He’s just being used and not giving his true self. It’s just sad to see that artists can get to this point so I hope something like this isn’t ever taken in a negative light. I also hope their mental and emotional states as well as over health is better. The music industry is cutthroat and they deserve true peace.

I agree 100% with everything you guys said. BTS completely and utterly deserve a break I don’t care how long it is, they just truly need time to breathe, grow, and live. Fans forget at times that they are people too. Being in the music industry is their career and passion it can’t completely be the only thing they are or will be. BTS is 7 individual people that come together as one a real brotherhood. I wish all of the best of luck to the very end and I hope that they can fall in love again with music in the future. This goes with any group, they shouldn’t feel guilty for not being able to make what they’re job is. This isn’t the end it’s just their decision at the moment and people need to respect that. Yes people need BTS but each member needs their people too. I hope they can find their place once again. 💜

I think what gives me comfort is that we know they are like family and have a close relationship with eachother so it hurts a lot less. I think that’s the difference between a 1d split and a bts hiatus is bc 1d members ..lets just say they did not like eachother and a few memebrs def throw shade and talk badly about one another (Liam -> zayn ) . I think It would hurt sooo much more if bts suddenly said they hated eachother and took a break with bad blood in between.
I love bts music so much but as we know they’ve given us SO much for a decade. They’ve gifted us with a crazy amount of songs / albums / choreo / interviews / concerts / short films / docu series / so they def deserve a break!! I saw something funny on Twitter right when the hiatus news dropped ..everyone was screaming and crying online and then a video was posted of jhope and jimin at a soccer game jumping up and down hugging eachother cuz a goal was scored at the game they were at that day..someone was like “just bc they aren’t gonna be co workers for a while doesn’t mean they stop being homies” which honestly made me feel better about the wholeeee thing 😭 I’m gonna miss their group music, albums, choreos for as long as they are taking a break but I know they will show up and support eachother and that honestly just makes me happy and a lot less sad about the whole thing

As always, great discussion. I was sad at first because they felt so much pressure. I'm excited also to see what they will do in the future. From what I've seen JK has something coming out 1st with Charlie Puth, not Justin.
Poor Justin is ill? Then Jhope and V with Wooga Squad with a spinoff. so they are busy still.

I'm on ARMY twitter as well. And, it is not an exaggeration to say it is a complex place to navigate. The "some" you are referring to, do not compare to the masses that trended nothing but positive messages to BTS. That's the only reason the media found out and reported on this "hiatus", ARMY was trending positive messages on twitter. JK's VLive & RM's letter were in response to the media, not to negativity from ARMY. Your online ARMY experience boils down to what faction you follow: shippers, solos, antis cosplaying as ARMY, mantis, & ARMY. Judging by your reaction, I don't think you follow very many ARMY. Also, you retweeted a manti video, so your viewpoint may definitely be skewed. I truly think you are misunderstanding ARMY.

It might have been long but it was well said and needed to be said. I totally agree with what you said. I am happy and excited for their future, and I will be there to support them through it all. The dinner was a hard watch but it was also very BTS, genuine, sincere and very raw. Love was the main thing I got out of it, love between each other, love between them and ARMY , and love for their craft. 💜💜💜

Respectfully, if you did, those were fans, not ARMY. They are the 10% Tae was referring to. Curating your timeline in army spaces is important, especially when trying to sift out the real from the fake.

I completely agree with everything that you said and I’m also very excited to hear all their solo albums and watch new episodes of run bts. I’m not sure if you have heard but it’s been confirmed that BTS agreed to be the ambassador for the world expo in Busan in 2030 which is in 8 years!! So I will not be making any plans for 2030 to be ready for BTS 😂

I'm so proud of them for putting themselves and their artistry first at the height of their careers. I can't imagine how many sleepless nights went into this decision. I will always support them and trust them completely. They've never disappointed us. I'm excited for what's to come and hope that this period of time brings them rest, rejuvenation, inspiration and inner peace. They've always had a solid foundation and never waivered so I will enjoy the ride of this next chapter. We have 7 different projects/endeavours to look forward to. How lucky are we?

Okay, there's a LOT to unpack with this so get ready for a long ass essay.
To start, I want to explain the actual 'mistranslated' issue that a LOT of fans used as a crutch- Yes, fans used that as a crutch as soon as they found out that in FACT, it was mistranslated.
I get what Lo is saying, and Lo- you know I adore you and I like your views. In this case you're not entirely wrong, but you are-
The term Hiatus has been given a negative connotation, but also it's something completely different then what they were talking about. Hiatus is a pause or freeze in sequence or series, a gap in a process. It's not forever.
However, to many westerners, not just Americans but other too in the west. Musicians will say hiatus and then stop everything and we won't see them or hear from them for a while.
The exact translation to what Yoongi said, the word he used, means 'Off season'. which is entirely different from hiatus. You guys being in film, you know that in an off season the writers are still writing, shows are being filmed to air for the next season- WORK is being done. There is no break, there is no pause in whatever.
THAT is what ARMY.. not the crutch holders, cause you're all very correct that many fans were using this as a way to complain.
My main point, the mistranslated thing is a legit thing, but it's only seen as negative because people are MAKING it negative. It's the wrong word to use anyway, and I was pissed at articles using it because it's not what was said, and I knew that was going to cause issues.
And it did, many were claiming celebration because - 'hey BTS just said they're on hiatus, that means no music from them! they're finally pulling a 1D.' That is the crap that pissed me off.
The videos that others were making, these problematic people saying BTS was disbanding when Yoongi even said "it's not like we're disbanding".
Miscommunication also comes into play- A lot of fans didn't watch the whole video, a lot just took clips and came to a conclusion. I saw it from a mile away and I have done my best to stay away from twitter.
Another thing, a lot of BTS fans and even some ARMY are not K-pop fans... so they might have been confused and worried and upset by this because it seemed like they were going solo permanently.
In Kpop EVERY group, every single group does at least one solo album. Usually, yes, it's something that's done in like the first 5 years of being active- however, BTS have not done that. Like Joon even said... rap line's mixtapes... are not actual solo works. They don't see them that way and others don't see them that way.
After 9 years active, it's the right time for them to do solo work, they need it. Namjoon is running on empty and he even said- he didn't want to end up just making BTS's themes be whatever he wants to talk about, because he's only one person in the group and that wouldn't be fair.
Those who cannot understand these things, the reason for solo, the need for them to learn and grow themselves- Then.. well those people need to rethink how much they actually love BTS, and how much they understand BTS.
Now about the Military thing. I really hate when fans get all 'I demand they be exempt.' And the non Korean ARMYs and posing ARMYs who try to start petitions for BTS to not serve. It's just stupid.
It's also not any fans place to demand a damn thing from them. They give so much willingly, and to just demand more speaks fucking volumes about that 'fan'.
The Military thing is sensitive, I've said it before- even though I have family there- My Uncle served, my little cousin will serve after college, that's his own personal plan. It's a thing that... unless you actually live there, your opinion on the matter doesn't fucking matter. I know that seems harsh to some, but I personally don't think anyone has a right to speak on it unless they're a citizen of south Korea.
Personally, I don't care how they decide to go in- be it, separately, in groups, or altogether. I am an ARMY, and I support whatever they're deciding to do.
I have no problem watching Run BTS over from the beginning up to the episodes they plan on dropping sometime in the near future, I have no problem watching Bon Voyage from the get go, going back through In the Soop- both season. Re-watching Rookie King and American Hustle Life, all their performances, All their Docu series' , the musters, There is SO much content even now, that I could re-watch everything and it would take me at least a few years to binge when I can.
I also want to touch on the sudden hate towards HYBE, because people took what was said wrong. If they felt like HYBE has been working them like machines and forcing them- BTS would NOT have re-signed , BTS would NOT be given the kind of freedoms they do have. Obviously they're not 100% free to say what they want. They're Idols and unfortunately, they can't just be themselves 100% because of how the industry there is. Because of the way others have set the bar.
Now, a few others have been more honest, and more open and have kicked that bar, but it's also made them drop in sales, lose fans. So I get BTS's fear of what they say.
Namjoon was more pissed about how others interpreted what he was saying, he wasn't talking about being tired of working with the others he wasn't talking about disbanding. He was talking about his need to do his own thing, the others need to do their own thing so they can grow musically and then come back together as a stronger group.
I already talked about this being typical. So for me personally.
I kind of knew this was coming. Honestly I thought it would happen sooner. I had thought that at the five year mark they'd have done this like typical groups do.
I cried only when Namjoon was feeling sorry for explaining that he needed this, and the stress he was clearly feeling when he was trying to express that it wasn't the end of BTS and the worst part is, he was worried fans would misunderstand.... and while not all of us, a lot of 'fans' and 'ARMYs' did misunderstand.
And those same fans started to use a word as a crutch to over look what was being said.
BTS isn't other groups, BTS isn't like other artists.
The amount of people now predicting BTS will never come back as BTS is almost laughable. It's like they never actually listened to BTS outside of their music. Every year at these dinners for the last 3 years especially, BTS has been saying- Change is coming, it has to change at some point, but we'll always be as BTS. We'll always come back as BTS.
What has infuriated me is also the idiots going around stirring up things. These videos of how 'the TRUTH behind BTS's dinner party' and then it's usually followed up with a 'Jimin wanted to leave the group???' or 'JK ditching BTS for Charlie Puth???' Like all these videos and articles are just pissing me off.
Sidetracked, sorry but- This isn't as big of a deal as everyone is making it. I was super happy about it. It was seeing Namjoon stressed and the others crying cause they were worried also how it would be received.
And a lot of fans let them down I think, with how they were reacting.
7 solo albums, for now anyway. Albums, and J-hope dropping his first, and soon. Korean articles have been saying Mid July... which makes sense because he's doing a one hour set at Lollapalooza on July 31st. So it makes sense that he'd drop his Album, and perform it at Lollapalooza.
I'm happy, Jimin saying he wanted Jin on a song, and he really wanted to work with Yoongi. It's possible Jimin's album might give us some other members as features. We knew RM was making connections with other artists on the down low, and he spilled his own tea when he mentioned he was reaching out to other artists...
A Jackson Wang Feature would honestly make me so fucking happy- Rapson friendship is goals.
Tae's album will be interesting for sure. His tastes are wild and so unpredictable. We could get an all ballad album, a Jazz album, a rap album... a mix of those, hell boy could drop a trot song or two on there as well lol.
Hobi did say he wanted to show ARMY another side of him, a darker side. So I think we're going to see that side soon. And I'm shaking with anticipation.
Honestly, overall I'm just super fucking happy that they're deciding to do this now. It is the right time - Fuck what others say... but they love ARMY so much that they do worry about our view of them.
I'm glad they're wanting to grow and learn.
Also.. RUN BTS coming back!
I just want to stress that the commotion made over this wasn't needed, yes.. it was heartbreaking to see Namjoon be that worried and struggle that much over what he was saying... but it was because he was afraid of what would happen... and a lot of people proved his fear, to me that's just wrong.
ARMYs, the real ARMYs who have seen them break worse than this... we knew this was a happy thing, this isn't a thing to be sad over, to get super emotional over- other than Namjoon's stress and worry. But the focus should have been on his solution- working on his own thing, letting the members expand their creative pallets as well. So when they do come back in 6 months, a year, 2 years, whenever they feel they've got it. They can do that and show us everything they learned and put it into their performances their music as a group, and so on.
Also, to answer what Curt said about wondering why vocal line didn't put out mixtapes like rapline. You have to remember that aside from RM and Yoongi, none of the other members had ANY experience writing or composing or producing.
The only reason J-Hope is up there, is because RM signed, technically early 2010, Yoongi signed on a few months after, around mid 2010, they moved into the dorm November 2010, and Hobi joined early 2011. He had about 3-5 months with all the other trainees before they had JK and Jin join. And then Tae and Jimin didn't join till 2012, with Jimin being the last to actually join the group.
So Hobi had an advantage.
But- to answer about writing/producing credits as of April 2022-
Namjoon has the most with - 187
Yoongi- 136
Hobi- 119
Jungkook - 16
Tae- 15
Jin- 12
Jimin- 9
That's all according to the KMCA. Which should probably update again soon lol.
But yeah- the guys were learning from the ones who knew how to write and produce before they even joined the company- Yoongi originally Auditioned to be a producer, but it was Bang who talked him into being a performer.
I didn't want to make this too long. There's a lot more that I could say, and some BS that I've seen that just... ugh.
But I don't like being negative.
So, we should all just be Happy that the guys are doing as they want to do, and they want to show us their individual sides right now. So, let's enjoy this ride, and remember- they're still BTS.
They're not going anywhere. 💜

Just something wild to share.. read this in twitter.
After the recent announcement, all kpop companies fell in stocks (confirmed to be true) which means the reception of kpop globally still depends on how bts is doing.
So hear me out with predictions.. this solo period could be when they will be cutting the cord with kpop. Other groups will now have a bit of a harder time when that happens since majority of the kpop fan population are ARMYS. Now this is when bts and bh are being very strategic.
When they go solo, the group will be able to fully validate themselves as artists, outside of being idols and when they do come back together it will be huge HUGE. These western award shows will not box them in a category anymore and finally acknowledge them as artists of their own.
Bangtan promised that they will come back SOMEDAY. Bangtan always stays true to their word. So, there's some easter egg from 2019 festa that there's Chapter 3 (it says in the caption by the BH editors). It says in Chapter 3 they will come back together.

It was clarified by BH after news broke out in global media and BH already edited that part btw if you rewatch on youtube. The word 'Hiatus' was changed. So it seems like in their language, hiatus and off period are not interchangeable.
DKDKTV made a reaction video to Festa and translated some of the most important parts like 'hiatus'.. what yoongi said was literally 'off period'. Basically, it means they got nothing to do, no activities lined up as of the moment. As for the semantics, I've heard from twitter that in the western industry, the word hiatus started to have a connotation of disbandment due to past boybands, specifically 1D. Then articles from global media came out with assumptions of them disbanding. That's why V, JK, and RM went on social media to clarify. They didn't even use the word 'hiatus'. JK said during the vlive that they still have group activities planned but will be focusing more on solo works.

I appreciate and respect all of your opinions. There’s a lot unknown right now and I think that means that every army opinion is valid as long as it’s respectful. I agree with all of you in one way or another. I was very emotional and shocked when I watched the dinner, but I’m still so excited for them to grow and explore in a way that THEY want to. I think a lot of the emotion comes from being shocked and feeling guilty with how stressed and tired they have been. Seeing Namjoon cry was heartbreaking and I never want them to feel scared or guilty to tell army anything. I honestly just want them to be happy. I checked Weverse right after I finished watching the dinner and there were soooo many loving and supportive messages left for them to see. I’m glad Tae let us know that he saw them.
The Run BTS discussion was interesting! I never thought about them filming it in subunits. That’s entirely possible since they’ll have different schedules and military schedules.
The military announcement from the members will be sometime next week. It will be very interesting to see how they divide it up. I think that will give a lot of insight into their planned timeline for everything. Anyway, I appreciate the video! Thank you 💜

And honestly, BTS always was as sincere as they could be with us. They didn't lead on or lied. As Jimin said "If you could take our words as they are, that would be great." So, I will trust BTS. They will be back as better self's and stronger BTS. And if something change, they will tell us. You can't never know what tomorrow will bring. So, I will live 'today', without worrying what 'tomorrow' will be like.
And seriously, seems there will be no time to wonder 'what ifs' with all they had planned for us. Too busy and being excited about chapter 2.

For me it was emotional because, they felt guilty and thought they will dissapoint ARMY because they need a break. They where working non stop for 9 years. If anyone needs a break its them. They should had that 2 years ago, but pandemic meesed up theirs plans. Then Dynamite exploded and they felt the need to push themselves. I really wish they had that rest back then, bet BE is beautiful album. Its two sides of the coin.
And I'm really excited for theirs individual projects. Those be amazing. My schedule as ARMY will be fuller then ever before.

I just wanted to shout out an appreciation post... I fell in love with BTS during covid times and became completely addicted with everything they have provided us. I'm from the UK and unfortunately BTS is not well known especially within my community, so I get alot of satisfaction by listening to your reactions. I generally feel at times I'm sat in the room with you guys having a full on conversation at reacting haha! So, just a big thank you from me. Loved hear your thoughts and always looking forward to the next reaction 😀

Every feeling is valid at this point, BTS has so many fans from different walks of life and that entered this BTS "ish" at different times. As for the "hiatus" that wasn't what was translated Yoongi mentioned off season I think. At this point I think what is on everybody's mind is the unknown ( I know they have plans, but it's different now) for the individual members and the group. Content will still be flowing even more so, but the BTS "Group" aspect is at the back burner for now. It's just the change of the dynamic of it all....ARMY and BTS have this symbiotic relationship that is so tight knit, more than I've ever known from other artists and their fans, but we have to remember that within every relationship is an individual that contributes to the relationship. All I will believe is what the guys have said, and that is to believe what they're saying, that they're not disbanding, and that they will come together again even better after a season of personal growth.

The truth is that A lot of army initially freaked out that they wanted to go on hiatus and then blamed the "mistranslations" when in reality that's exactly what they meant. Hiatus means taking a break so either way you want to spin it, its initially the same concept. They want to take a break from group music and do their own thing for a while. I saw a lot of army just freaking out as the news broke out instead of realizing what bts were really saying: they're not disbanding , they're coming back together for ot7 music once they can spread their wings on their own.

In kpop, when groups go to military etc for 2 years, their popularity make a massive drop because its not in the west kpop is so competitive 2 years may be 10 years and the fact bts know this and was planning on going solo (still in group) two years ago, before covid hits, before till need to go to military (we still don't know if they are going) but where they could still be in group but they chose to want to do solo (still in group) shows what RM says, they were having a hard time. And after covid happens, BTS change all their plans and release life gones on, butter, dynamite and RM said because of all these singles and english singles, he seems or the group seems to lost their direction because imagine BTS having write all their songs producing all the deep lyrics yet "Butter" and "dynamite" a single produce by someone else and doesn't really have any deep meaning and is sing in a language that is not theirs is nominated for the grammys I can kind of imagined how RM felt. To be honest, because this is what BTS wanted, I support them and will forever love them because not many artist can do this. At the peak of their career. Where they still haven't even reach their peak yet but they decided to do this to find themselves. Because like they said they seems to be lost and looking back before "life goes on" "dynamite" "butter" was released, because those three singles wasn't planned but they were planning to end BTS chapter 1 with "ON" the song and the lyrics "bring everything on" "Can't hold me down 'cause you know I'm a fighter" and then the song "Black Swan" which is about BTS scared they will lose their passion for music for their art. And the quote of their performance video "An dancer dies twice, once when they stop dancing, and this first death is the more painful" Basically BTS pain and afraid of losing love for passion and what RM said "In order for BTS to continue for a long time, he feel like he need to retain himself." To find himself. I hope during this period, BTS will find themselves and be happy. Also why they felt so bummed out is before the covid, BTS planned a massive tour the biggest ever seen because it is one last gift before they return again but because of covid, they got their grammy nom but cause a lot of changes.But life is unpredictable and like Suga said, none of their plans went through because, invited by the White House, speak at the UN, etc was not planned and I think I is also a good thing. Life can be unpredictable at times.

You know, I'm going to say this...it is VERY important to watch BTSs vlives. They use those opportunities to communicate with ARMY and you will learn a lot about what they are thinking and where they are emotionally...from their own actions and words. Also, there is a HUGE difference between a causal fan and ARMY. Both types of fans are needed but bot types of fans react differently to BTS. Every ARMY I saw had nothing but support for BTS and although I don't question how anyone self identifies...if you saw someone NOT supporting BTS...you should question whether that person was ARMY.

I appreciate them so much for the fact that Jk came on vlive to reassure ARMY again that they weren't going anywhere and staying together as BTS, as well as Namjoon for writing that letter to set things straight because the media was takin git way out of proportion and putting words in BTS' mouths.

Some people may have been surprised but anyone paying attention to BTS would have not been. Namjoon basically said some of the same stuff on his 2020 bday vlive. This has been coming for a while. At the end of the day, ARMY is supporting BTSs decision. There is no ill will or any nevative feelings toward BTS among ARMY. Non ARMY, idk about.

Honestly the only sad part about this for me was how much stress and pressure they were/are under. They aren’t on a “hiatus”, they’ll still be doing Run BTS and the occasional group something but they’ll still be putting out music and other content, just individually, which is exciting. I can’t wait to hear their individual sounds. JK has a song with Charlie Puth coming out next week, Hobi has an album next month along with Lollapalooza, and the rest will come later as well. I hated how news outlets and people online blew this whole debacle up. Even Namjoon got annoyed and wrote a lengthy letter explaining that they were not on hiatus and we’re not disbanding. It’s sad he had to do that and sad JK had to go on VLive and do the same as well.

I'm glad they're taking this break because they're clearly tired, stressed, and not happy. It bothered me and I felt so selfish when I realised that they are doing things to make me happy while they are not. so I wish they would enjoy their time and live their lives the way they want and deserve. We must remember to trust BTS and that this break is what they need and deserve. The whole point of this time off they are taking from “BTS” is that they feel like they need to be able to express and put their feelings into their OWN individual art. Like Namjoon said, when he writes a song for BTS he feels like sometimes the lyrics are about what HE’S feeling and not what the whole team is necessarily feeling. So instead of burning themselves out trying to find inspiration for BTS lyrics, they will actually go out and live life so that they can have new experiences to write about. They poured their hearts out and it’s time for them to actually rest and take care of themselves and their needs. They have given us so much of themselves for the past 9 years, in the meantime, we have all their solo projects to look forward to.

I think this break is needed 100%. I support the boys no matter what. Being with them for 5 years the thing that hurt the most watching the dinner party is how guilty and how stressed they were feeling. Obviously, JK and Namjoon spoke out after the dinner party and said we are not disbanding, we still, have group projects we are just going to focus a bit more on solo stuff. I'm so excited to see what they do. They will forever have a special place in my heart and i will be with them every step of the way.

All the ARMY translators said they had never seen Joon write anything like that, and the tone he used was direct. Anyway, it took me two days to recover from this 'shocking' news, not because I was sad (yeah I was sad for about two hours😅), but because the aftereffect of the announcement made me n I'm sure my fellow ARMY enraged of the manipulation of the media in SK n internationally, including my own country (their Festa announcement was on the main news and they used the sensational headline 😑)

There seems to be a small misunderstanding maybe, but I think it should be clarified that ARMY has nothing but support for BTS and their decision. Any sadness felt had nothing to do with them not producing as a group, but sadness about THEIR pain and anxiety over the decision. Believe it or not. ARMY is fairly well plugged into BTS...with all that has been going on, very few of us were surprised with the decision. But we definitely felt their pain that day and that was heartbreaking.

Just want to say that I loved this and that this video has a lot of mistranslation. If you watch Jungkook's vlive and read Rm's letter on weverse, they both explain that they're not going on hiatus or taking a break, they said they still have lots of things to do as a group, still got more performances, and still have schedules to do as a group. They'll just be giving more attention to their solo music. Musically wise they'll be doing some things solo, like Jungkook is coming out with a song with Charlie Puth and J-hope has the Chicago event, that's what they mean by solo, but they'll be filming a lot of content together and their show Run BTS is coming back and they'll be filming that. Rm had to address the rumors about them taking a hiatus because he knew the media would try to twist their words.
