Sometimes being a part of the kpop bubble makes me forget just how much bigger than everyone else BTS is

Incredible numbers

Quote from stxr

i feel like ppl are dissmissing it simply bc their in the military rn

Yes, the fandom is really silent because many of the guys are still in the military and pre-recorded content seems to slow down. Jin is working non-stop but Hobi has a few weeks before fresh content can be put out. I feel like people misunderstand this inactivity as Bts going down because of the storm at Hybe but I feel like that's a wish from haters and a misunderstanding of the behavour of fans or casuals without the members being "accessible". Fans are mostly quiet because there is no way to interact with most of the members at the moment.

Is this not insane?? 30 platinum songs (btw when is Bighit going to move to get them certified ), Butterfly, a b-side from 2015 was the latest song to cross this milestone! Most groups struggle to get singles move 1 million units in the US and here is BTS with multiple b-sides crossing that milestone.

Keep in mind that every single individual BTS member has several songs over 100m as well

Butterfly is an underappreciated Queen!

Even on twitter, a number of ARMYs are inactive but when Jin was discharged, they became active. ARMYs are mostly waiting for all the members to come back.

Just look at the engagement

Quote from Chocolate-cheeks

i don't think i realised just how popular BTS was on Japanese twitter until Jin was released.. the engagement on those Japanese tweets were crazy and the sheer number of tweets was something else.

All of the members were in the military for 6 months so when Jin came back, ARMYs were so excited hence the tweets and engagements.
