BTS became the world's prime act in 2020 with messages of hope, love yourself and a lot of other stuff.
However , for reasons only known to himself, Bang failed to exploit it, and instead sent BTS to a bunch of haphazard events with no real aim.
That led to the complete collapse of its empire in late 2022.
A lot of people are looking for its 2026(2025 is no longer feasible) return. Frankly speaking, given their solo activities are not showing any kind of message, I doubt it would bring any coherent long-term messages for the people of the world.
all these solo activities are being done without any kind of centrifugal force, with no unifying theme. And the members are now getting used to doing things on their own so when they reassemble (a big if now),
When ,. or if, they assemble what message would they have for the world, when the world changes every day and we can't even imagine how things will be by that point of time?
I personally think that the more likely response by the people of the world is that BTS stays with the pandemic era, and they move on to whoever is hot by that point of time and while some Armies will still support them, on their schedule 2026 there will be some arenas which begin to creep up in t heir schedule for the first time since 2018.
While trying to drag BTS to the military, the K-O-R-E-A-N incels who argued for that said them going to the military will ensure they have a longer run. I argued that they are not good at arithmetic - it would take 40 plus years to recover what they will lose in their 4 peak years where they would have earned north of 1.5 billion, making 6 billion at the minimum.
In KPop the notion of a 'longer run' is simply idiotic, and I don't think whatever message BTS might bring on in 2026 won't be as strong or powerful as what they did in 2018, 19 and 20. With all of them having served in ROKA, and half of the world now being removed from the so-called Rules Based Order, they will never be likeable by half of the population of the world and that would be just the beginning.
