so much bitterness.
stay mad you all.

Maybe some Blinks are concerned because they are nice and are genuinely worried about BTS and know the nasty things the Western industry does? Ever think of that?
LMAOOOOOOOOO

Idk like the whole group is leaving plus employees of the company and source literally filing for bankrupt because of the merge?

Wut? Internalized racism? How in Sam hill is this internalized racism? I see black people expressing their cringe over stuff other black people do. I see white people being embarassed for the stuff other white people do. Arent i allowed to express my own cringe at something my own peeps have done? I've heard countless THOUSANDS of Korean accents growing up including my very own parents ffs, how many have you heard? Jeez louise
Maybe i just grew up in a time when we spoke plainly about things, didnt cotton to any of that politically correct nonsense. It's not racist to point out that someone's pronunciation was bad enough that you had to use subtitles, it's literally a statement of fact, something that literally happened to me.
sure hon.

You kiddos are a little confused me thinks. Lemme help (again).
It was always normal for kpop idols to sing in English. It's ALWAYS been normal. Idols have been singing in English for years. Nobody EVER said anything about it, literally NOBODY CARED.
Then in comes BTS, Bighit and ARMY. Bang Sihyuk who said kpop should be in Korean and groups who sing in English try too hard to gain western approval. BTS who loudly and proudly say 'We will not sing in English, if we suddenly start singing in English it won't be BTS no more. We are proud Koreans and want to become famous for singing in Korean'. ARMY, who immediately started harassing and shitting on every single kpop group who has ever released an English song, accusing them of trying to gain 'western validation', literally saying that BTS are superior Koreans unlike others, that they are better Koreans than the groups that have English songs. Y'all were shouting EVERYWHERE 'YASSS kings for refusing to sing in English!! Spreading Korean language!!!! Unlike other girls!!!!' Y'all been giving SO MUCH SHIT to other groups for singing in English for fucking years.
What happened then?! BTS and Bighit forget all their promises, their Koreanness and loud claims that they will never have an English songs! 'Oh umm yea we decided that we will sing in English, turns out becoming popular and charting in America with Korean song is very hard but we really want that Hot100 so we planned this shitty English track, thank god we can use the pandemic as an excuse :((('. And ARMY suddenly go 'Singing in English is normal!! Worry about your flop faves!' Like all the years of harassing idols for English songs never happened!
Do you kiddos understand what we're saying? It's all because of YOU. BTS and their stans! YOU came in and MADE IT A PROBLEM for idols to sing in English. YOU started to make it something shameful and controversial when it wasn't before. BTS and ARMY. Hypocrites who switched up the narrative super quick! Nobody gave a shit about English songs before y'all arrived. NOBODY WOULD CARE NOW. It became a problem BECAUSE OF YOU AND YOUR SHIT SUPERIORITY COMPLEX. Y'ALL DECIDED THAT IT'S SOMETHING BAD. BECAUSE BTS, YOUR HYPOCRITE FAVES MADE Y'ALL BELIEVE IT'S SOMETHING BAD. Y'ALL have been bullying other groups and deciding who is and isn't a real Korean.
NOW after all thet you hypocrite ass bitches wanna talk and be offended? NOW your narrative is completely different? NOW y'all want to forget and pretend like y'all and BTS never did and said all of that?
IT'S BECAUSE OF YOU.
not reading all of that.
however, if you have this much to say about a group you clearly dont like... you need help hon. and fast. because this is sad.

Three reasons.
First, many of us are Americans not Japanese. Maybe if you visit a Japanese forum, you might find some folks who dont like when Kpop bands do Japanese songs, whether it's BTS or any other band.
Secondly, Japan and Korea are a lot closer culturally than Korea and the US. However frigid their political relations, the two countries are deeply intertwined.
Thirdly, the problem with Dynamite for me as a KA is that the boys pronunciation was so bad i literally couldnt understand the lyrics at times. I had to use subtitles. If youre going to sing an ALL ENGLISH SONG, it would be best if the English speaking audience could understand it. Contrast this with Ice Cream, i understood every word, or even Twice's English versions, most members have obvious accents but i can clearly make out every word.
I think how Kpop songs are mostly a mix of English and Korean is actually perfect. This is how many Koreans talk, mixing English and other foreign words with Korean, i literally grew up listening to my parents speak like that to me. This is part of Kpop's charm and addictiveness for me.
lmao.
you insufferable little human. how about you take you internalized racism and shut the hell up?

According to twitter (the place of fandom myth and legend so who knows) the song has 10 writers and none of them are members of the group though that's weird because they're missing out on massive royalties if they don't have credits on their English tracks. RM at least has enough English to make a minor lyric change and get a credit. Anyway.
It's probably a sex innuendo song (though in my eyes nothing will ever beat Converse High and Blanket Kick there, not that there was much innuendo!) or a "you (Army's of course) make my heart melt like butter" soppy love song to charge the tween/teen market from another angle.
sure, because everything we see on twitter is true.

pr genius.

rapping in korean then :D
the fact that you’re questioning WHY a group of koreans are singing in english AFTER what they shared with us in their stop asian hate letter.... does not make you the little special snowflake you think it does.
think about WHY it bothers you so much, hon. you might not like the answer.
