BTS TO GO ON A HIATUS AND START SOLO WORK (LIKELY NO EXEMPTION)

Now i'm sad not gonna lie

It's not really something i want as a fan but i will support them regardless. It's scary. Everything is fine as long as they don't disband, i'll just keep telling myself that.

the part about losing direction scares me. I'm happy that their honest but it's still scary

Now I'm sad...

I'm a mess right now

But i understand and I'll support them

Quote from bobsyouruncle

its sad but like they said this is something that they felt like they should've done way sooner but couldn't.. also I really think they need this break with how RM kept talking about how he feels like they've lost direction and need time to think

I know, i know. I just can't process this right now. I need time, a lot more time.

This was everything i was scared of if i'm being honest

It's a bittersweet feeling but also exciting! Can't wait for their solo endeavours and their reunion as ot7 💙 I'm so happy that BTS is making their own choices and really trying to separate themselves to a fucked up idol system. These guys will only get bigger with their solo and group reunion. I don't wanna jinx it but they are just built different. Their group dynamic is so unique to other groups and their teamwork and love for each other and fans are the 'secret' ingredients behind their success.

But is it too much to ask for a WW tour before anything else? 😭

Idols naturally go in this solo direction after 7-10 years so it’s not surprising but since they didn’t have explicit enlistment or drop in popularity it probably seems abrupt.

It's really interesting to see RM be this candid about their situation musically.

Are their any other candid excerpts from the other members? Music or otherwise?

I mean it's really not that surprising tbh

BTS is almost a decade old group.They're doing nothing but following the typical pop group route.

Eitherway,I wish them lots of success.

As much as it breaks my heart, this was bound to happen and feels kind of necessary.

tho I'm not ready to watch the dinner fiesta thing yet due to all the tears.

but I understand their stance and decision. They're not a group that just releases an album, drops a single and goes on a tour. They're a LEGACY now. and since I'm aware of their love of music and what music means to them, I deeply understand their fear of 'not adding anything new' or feeling of direction loss.

Final note, they will come back stronger than ever, I'm pretty sure of this

Still, Kpop won't be the same anymore but Life goes on

I love how honest they were, it is a scary step, doing solo work.. I will be supporting them no matter which direction they take because everyone deserve to follow their dreams and paths.. I truly wish all the best and will think of the first chapter lovingly. And will wait for the second chapter patiently.

This bit really stands out

So true for both men and women idol groups. Look at the absolute bullshit they go thru to just go on a date

I Will support them no matter what, but i'm so sad

I am sad but happy that they didn’t just crash and burn. Give them room to breathe and live a life out from the spotlight

This is to be expected. They are also preparing for enlistment at this time.

I can't wait for their solos, I hope them being able to go into whatever musical direction they personally want to can really help them really enrich themselves. They'll absolutely be coming back at OT7 and doing the big world tours and stuff probably every other year so. But it's really time for them to be able to have a life and slow down and just do things in their own terms.

They're the biggest act in the world. They don't have to fight 24/7 for their place. They can enjoy what they've built now and capitalise on incredible opportunities.

it's honestly the best decision they could make right now, but i'm sad af

i've been growing up with them and this looks like saying goodbye to a friend that is moving away or smth

i wish all of them the best and i can't wait to see what they all have in store, as they've said, they all have different tastes and interests, so this chapter is going to be super excting too!

I knew it was coming. It's sad but I was prepared.

I have always appreciated their honesty and the sincerity towards the fans. They never feed into the fantasy that everything always goes smooth and perfect and I think it's important to talk about these issues. I understand them, they've been through a lot over the past 10-11 years and they've accomplished so much.

As a fan I'm a little sad but I'll support them regardless. This album definitely marks the end of an era and I can't wait to see what brings next. Till then, I wish them them all the best.

I already had a shitty day

I’m happy for them but

This!

I'm actually quite excited for this next step. Not for the solo stan bullshit that will inevitable explode, but for the musical directions they go in. The rap line members all have a distinct sound. JK goes for more R&B, Jin does ballads, Tae does acoustic, and Jimin is still a mystery. So I'm waiting to see how the develop those into packaged albums. Like when I tell yall I'm in this bangtan shit for music, oh I fucking mean it. I cannot wait to see the new concepts and hear new music from each of them.

One thing though: I hope they're not feeling too pressured. I know Tae has spoken about it before and JK to an extent as well. Putting out solo material is a big deal, but I hope the collabs and Soundcloud songs have prepared them over the years.

Am I sad that they're going on hiatus? Honestly, no. There is 9 years of music to keep listening to and finding meaning in. And they never said they'd stop meeting and doing activities together.

Here's to chapter 2!

I agree with you 100%

I'm so excited that they're going this direction and like JK said it should've been done. But they're here now and they're going to make the most of it.
