why bts hyung line not as famous as maknae line

they are more talented than the maknae line. they can produced songs, can rap, while the maknae line only have visuals.

they cannot sing too. i still remember they doing live with charlie puth and all sounds like minions except jungkook.

Visuals, charm and stage presence

Jin is handsome but not very charismatic. Suga, Jhope and RM aren’t considered as good looking by most (personally I think RM’s one of the best looking members)

Visuals, a decent level of dancing skills and stage presence is all that it takes for an idol to be the most popular among their group. And the maknae line fits this description the best.

kpop is more about visuals so you get your answer

visuals & sex appeal are the only thing that matters in kpop

the maknae line has more sex appeal than Jin

Jin is more handsome than the rapline

ergo that's the popularity ranking

Maybe because they don’t treat fans like their girlfriend?

Hyungline stans are always shading ml and calling them untalented but when it comes to streaming and hyping HL they dissappear. I wonder Why's that?Do y'all token stan them to shit on other members? Suga is one of the most famous member and literal stan attractor, irls around me who are new to bts either like him or V do I don't get your point.

agree totally

No one was listening to BTS for the music or their skills. Just like any other kpop group. That’s why their least talented members are the most popular.

The last part is true for me. I’m a Coldplay fan and found out about them through the collab. V caught my eye at first then Suga and Suga is my favourite.

But Suga has the most succesful solo activity in BTS and he's the fourth most popular member everywhere except for eastern asian countries.

Jungkook?

It's not about talent but about their looks. Personally i only think 1 member looks good and the rest are so so.

Because they're not cute, however much their fans stockholm syndrome themselves into thinking otherwise.
