I also remember people hated the music video but honestly tho without understanding all the Korean elements I still enjoyed IDOL and still do. From beginning to end the song makes me hyped. The criticism about it being westernized comes with it being from BTS because everything BTS does will be critiqued for catering to the west. I’m honestly at the point where I don’t if people seriously believe it or are just parroting it.
If I could have 2 best answers, I'd give one to you.
