Is BTS members bond genuine or for cameras?

  • I think their friendship is genuine but their skinship is not

  • Most of them seem genuinely close.

    But as with everything in kpop, there's no way of knowing for sure.

  • I think they are all genuinely close. Some are closer to others. The 95 liner are definitely close, like you can't fake that kind of friendship. I doubt all of them are the bestest of friends though and that's fine. They get along when together and respect each other so that's all that matters. You can't put 7 guys together and expect that they are all super close with everyone.


    As far as skinship goes.... maybe? Like, I'm 19 and when I'm with my friend I act like that so it's not unthinkable. Plus, in my opinon, asian culture is more okay with this sort of thing. I mean, from what I observed it's not weird for guys to touch each others butts if they're close so I don't think all the skinship is fake. Some of it, sure.

  • There is no doubt about this. It is more genuine than anything I have ever seen.

  • as a stan since debut, they definitely seemed more distanced/had more tension in their earlier years. but honestly these days they seem closer than ever, and not in a "trying too hard" type of way either. it just comes out naturally whenever they're doing "Run BTS" etc.


    they don't seem cold or disjointed. of course we have no way of knowing but honestly i think that if they weren't as close, they wouldn't have come this far.

  • yeah

    They have been through so much shit together and have lived together for so long that they seem to be know the ins and outs of each others' personalities

  • yeah

    They actually went through some traumatic shit together (cancelling concerts bc of death threats, having japanese nazi's coming after them, one of the biggest news stations in Korea breaking in to ruin their carreer, bh threatening with suing bc the dragging of passed away relatives was going so far,..). Things like that bond you really strongly.


    AThat with all of them being genuinely good and friendly guys, its not that strange their friendship is genuine.

    We wont know HOW close they actually are, but i'm sure they trust, respect and love each other.

  • yes. If ye doubt their relationships with each other then you're pretty fucking miserable and grim.


    When a group of people weather hardships together and make an effort to be a good influence in one another's life, it solidifies friendships.

  • Genuine, although I do think they play up their skinship for the cameras. If anything, I think the astronomic success has brought them even closer since only they can understand what it's like to go through that.

  • Nah, their friendship is genuine, anyone can tell. You can't fake it when you have cameras following you everywhere.

  • They have a friendship - a working friendship and everybody found their place in it by now.


    They all have friend groups outside work so I think they go seek energy elsewhere and then they get together for work.

    Doesn’t mean it’s fake. They just know each other so well - good and bad - that they fall into their place when they get together.


    They don’t have a Friends type friendship anymore - which is very common. They each have their own place now too and the vacation time is spent apart - naturally.


    But they will always have this bond - even when they live their own lives post BTS.


    I don’t think the skinship is real (anymore) and it’s getting a bit old and weird.

  • I think so but we'll never know until they spill a decade after

  • RM: We have a strictly business relationship between us


    Taehyung: Even among ourselves we are socially distanced
