Do you think BTS have already hit their peak in Korea?

Yes.

Dynamite was their peak. Both Korea and internationally.

I think it depends on the song bc their last song even though "not promoted" or a "ballad" like some fans claimed didn't live up to their success, so what I'm saying is: idk if Suga scandal will truly affect them in SK, what I know is that their tts choice does.

Btw they have a huuuuuge kr fandom, I expect them to support their next cb as hard as they can.

I will answer you in 2 years

I think their next comeback will be huge since it’s been years since they’ve had one. So until then I feel we won’t be able to tell. Maybe they’ll peak again with their post-military era.

It depends on song. Casual listeners are not gonna listen the song regardless who release it, if they don't like it.

Their comeback will be huge. But after that, it is just the existing ARMY, who all grow older get busy with life, with less and less time for "fan" activity.

They will still sell out concerts etc., but the explosive growth phase is over.

Happens to all acts, I don't see BTS being an exception.

I really can’t pick a vote on this. Their comeback has the potential to be absolutely massive.

Internationally, I can’t see them slowing unless they want to.

That’s the thing know - I have no crystal ball to know how much they want to or will have been changed by military service, or how much they’re fed up by Hybe or anything else, or how much they want to explore individual creativity and freedom.

They will come back together, and it will be huge… but Korean music fans seem like they can be pretty changeable, so I don’t think I can predict whether they’ll turn against them because of Yoongi, or buy into the hype and ‘forget’ everything.

Yes. After Dynamite and maybe Butter that was it for them. When they return it'll make noise but won't be as big as their hits before. They'll probably come back with something like ON and that'll be it for them. Jungkook will carry on their legacy once he comes back from the army. As long as HYBE doesn't spend more of their money on these other flop groups then everything will be fine.

In Korea, yes. Even if they hit number one, it’s unlikely to be as big a hit as Dynamite. All groups fade with time.

They've peaked. They'll still be huge but they won't be the phenomenon they were.

And this is just me, but most older male idols feel a bit sad when they comeback after the military or long hiatuses. Grown dudes in their 30s trying to look and act 16 -- it's a tough scene.
