In 2021 BTS had absolute superiority over everyone else in all fronts.
But, for reasons only known to Bang, it failed to seize the opportunity.
IU revolted in Korea, while others began to make their moves, and instead of doing a whirlwind world tour, incredibly BTS did ... nothing while IU had held the largest concert in Korea in the 2020s, a record unlikely to be broken till 2026.
The ouster of Min Heejin removed a huge threat against BTS' return in 2026, since without her New Jeans is not likely to hinder BTS' way.
Last year, New Jeans had blocked Jungkook from reaching the Melon #1 for weeks even though JK's song won the Billboard #1 at Hot 100.
Now, the question would be how Taylor Swift will deal against the renewed BTS threat.
A selected schedule of her tour might be answer enough
| February 7–10 | Tokyo Dome | Japan | First international female act to perform four consecutive days. | [210] | |
| February 16–18 | Melbourne Cricket Ground | Australia | Biggest three-day attendance (288,000). | [211] | |
| February 23–26 | Accor Stadium | First act to perform four shows on a single tour. | [26] | ||
| March 2–4 March 7–9 |
Singapore National Stadium | Singapore | First solo act to perform three, four, five, and six shows on a single tour. |
4 straight days at Tokyo
3 straight days at Melbourne
4 straight days at Sydney
6 days at Singapore
17 days of concerts in 31 days
Can BTS do that? I doubt it
It will be dangerous if Taylor decides to deal with BTS
But it will be even worse if Taylor does not deal with it, since that means she sees BTS as someone no longer a threat to her.
BTS can only do 8-10 days in 31 days . It cannot beat Taylor Swift.
It is like heads I win, tails you lose.
I wish all of them say goodby to Korea, for ever. It simply destroyed them.
