Will BTS Military Enlistment Period Be Like Everyone Else's?

    Quote from Ves

    I guess that's the good thing about BTS fanbase rumored to be composed of ahjummas :pepe-hehe:

    Yes legacy and older fans always matter..Hmm but it’s teenagers who have time to do things like stream and obsesses which are also required to be in that trendy category I guess.

    There’s nothing wrong in appealing to teenage girls. Kpop is aimed at them while adults just happen to occupy some of that space. You can enjoy anything you want but there will always be a target audience.

    BTS in the military will be like no one else. Look at Jin. There were a billion stories from all corners of the world on his graduation and his appointment at a teaching assistant at the camp to help new recruits. So much video of the ceremony and the respect he received from his fellow soldiers and officers.


    BTS are exemplary men. I assume this trend will continue as each member enters the military. Jin continues to trend on social media every day. There is even a fantastic countdown twitter account.


    We will be see you next year Jin. God bless you and all your fellow soldiers

    Jin graduating from military training made it to CNN too

    BTS aren’t like the typical kpop groups that have gone before them. They are one of the biggest names in the music industry. Fun fact:Jin completing his 5 weeks basic service was covered on CNN.


    That shows how much the world are still paying attention to them. Two years is not enough time to disappear from the gp presence

    LYW fans will want to have a talk with you. Imo I expect aged fans to have time to do more of these things because most of them are already settled in life

    LWY wasn’t aimed at teens though? He’s a trot singer and trot as a genre appeals to an older audience. So that’s always been his fanbase. His fans have not been following him for 10 years or whatever. This is more about people who grew up along with the groups growing out of the fandom life as they age. This is based of my own experience and I believe it is universal. I bought all the albums when I was an older teen and early 20s with time while I still enjoy the groups, the priorities shift. And this will I believe be a shared sentiment and experience. While ‘age’ is the result it’s also the time of stanning. It’s nice if you can do it forever but I don’t think that’s a reasonable expectation.
