Is this a bait or do you really believe it?
Since I am not a fan of either group, I neither believe or disbelieve, but merely open to the possibility.
Anecdotal, I found more teens in the US, "into" SKZ than BTS, whom they treat as some once famous act slightly younger than Beatles.. was quite shocked to see how fast the generational tastes change these days.
That's another reason, I am open to the possibility.
