Do armys genuinely believe all 7 BTS members have enough starpower to be successful on their own

  • ...Really? It's four out of the seven at best come on

    Approved the thread.
  • V, Jungkook, and Jimin are the most likely. Suga has a chance but the rest I think will have either hits or misses.

  • They've been in their safe idol bubble for so long, it ended up hurting them in the end. Sure, gp knows the group, but individually? It's like they know the songs, but not the group members which is why they are doing poorly on the charts individually compared to Blackpink (and no, I'm not a blink). Look at Mino, or any 2nd gen boygroups. They have more general public recognition due to them promoting individually on popular shows or solo cfs, while bts stopped doing after they blew up ww and only do cfs as the group. Imagine what would happen, had they started promoting after dynamite success. As long as they are playing it safe and not training their variety skills, their fans power can only go so far. J-hope needs to be on these shows. They need general public for longevity.

  • threatened much op? they haven't even started any promotion, chill or you will have to eat up your words later.

    Mino has sold like 200 K of his last two albums total? And he’s promoting with Winner again which is what they always do: got7, Shinee, Bigbang, Superjunior etc.

    They just can’t sell enough on their own and nothing like their group. Which is also why they never disband. Don’t kill the cash cow!


    It doesn’t matter if you are in a variety show - nothing matters if it doesn’t result in a sale in that game.


    I believe Jhope will be successful with live concerts. He’s not catering to the “melon” crowd and he dgaf.

    Don’t rule him out, he has that artistic persona that nonkpop fans like.


    RM will do collabs and write/produce. Seems like he is fed up with fans and don’t want to put anything popish out.


    Suga will be in hiphop wich is not a massive cash cow in korea. And produce/write which is a massive cash cow (pdogg?)


    Jimin I think will stay in bts but not do anything solo. I think he is fed up with kpop fans and drama.


    Jin acting and bts. Yay.


    JK - time will tell. He’s not edgy enough to be a Harry Styles and idk about touring. But a good solid pop career if he collabs with western artists. In korean? Idk.


    V. I hope he will act. His style of music is meh. Or do fashion items in his own name.

    He’s not a soloist type with his music style and arrogant persona (like the airport thing).

  • even the least popular member is doing well. lol

  • Obviously. If you believe your flop groups are successful from those puny numbers what makes you think a solo member can’t do those numbers or even better.


    Kpop stans will still call BTS flops even if they do way better than the entire industry wbk

  • Just because y'all are obsessed with basic pop music doesn't mean V's music isn't good.

  • This shit so stupid, my god. They haven't even started yet and everyone is like flop flop.

    Didn't JK literally outstream everyone in kpop except bts with just a collab

  • ...Really? It's four out of the seven at best come on

    At least mention who are four out of seven in your opinion. As army I'm interesting in hearing it. But don't drag anyone, if you start dragging them then i don't care about it

  • Of course not successful equally.


    Some will be more successful. And they will succeed in different fields probably.

    their fan power took them to heights never ever seen by any kpop group though.

  • I think each BTS member can pull other top kpop groups (-BP) numbers, so yes i think they all are going to be succesful.


    Unless you think they only succesful groups are BTS and BP and the others are flopping.

  • If bts solos are considered as flops, then so are all of your faves solos and a lot of groups tbh


    BTS historically has always had stronger international support as opposed to support at home. some idols are bigger stars in SK than internationally (like zico, mino, hwasa, iu etc) but BTS have been and will always be the opposite. They're world stars and their numbers show that.


    also everyone had a starting point. their peers started pushing solo in maybe 2018-19, so they're a little behind as far as building gp support. If they want to focus on gp in SK then they'll start doing variety. That's all it will take. RM is still the most well known member to the GP because of his variety appearances in 2015-17.

  • Didn’t say not good.

    Said meh for the bts fan group.

    If you’ll stream anyhow then they will all be successful. Doesn’t mean the rest of us have to like it or it wont hurt army ears.

    no one forces you to like it. so far he has shown much interest in making music so he will surely release his own music and have his own niche who love it. so it's not your place to tell him to do acting or fashion instead. in fact he will do everything he wants because he can. Seeing what you project about his personality just from one airport instance while ignoring others where he was always one of the most generous members with fanservice to fans and reporters, it shows you know nothing about him to be 'giving him advice'. maybe just leave him alone now if you're so annoyed.

    You clearly have never listened to his music. It's more mature than what bts has released recently.

    Idk why do people who don't stan bts think just because he's pretty he'll not do music. He rejected so many songs which were actually good, god knows how good the final work is going to be.
