hi guys, it's been a long while since I visited, I have like 8000 pages to read back - to any of you who is still here and remembers me , hi
a lot has happened since I visited. I actually, despite knowing everything I know, I fell deep into BTS, well more to be exact I only root for JK and Taehyung. during the past months I have done a lot of research, talked to a lot of people who have been there for years, that have access to various sources and expanded my knowledge.
just as before, I am still sympathetic to some aspects of them.
the new comeback is so weird. nobody is excited, feels like the company is already planning their fall from grace. the hardcore amis are concentrated on beating their own set records, nobody cares about music or artistry. Dynamite was a horrible song but it was in ENGLISH so it was promotable and yes, as a consequence they finally got enough screentime. if they win a grammy (highly doubt this) it would be a pity over a song that has zero attachment to them.
What I wanted to talk about is how the members stopped faking their excitement. JK ,who was the jolliest one in promos and interviews, looks bored and disattached, the others as well. Taehyung stopped worrying about calling out the company.
so now BANG makes them do skits showing their undying love and support for him, because it doesn't look good for investors.
I am not more certain than ever most of them were severly abused and traumatized, mochi in particular, don't know what he has been through but he is showing clear signs of psychopathy, he is actually dangerous in my opinion, as he is vendettive, unpredictable and knows a lot.
this whole Suga surgery thing seems bizarre, I don't think we are gonna see him until (possible) enlistment.
I have hard time explaining a lot of behaviours they are displaying, and find it hard to believe they agreed their real names to be used for the series, how fcked up was that contract.
I know this all over the place, sorry, I am just struggling with this. I want them to be ok, on a personal level, and I hope the boys can recover one day.
also, have you heard of Adora leaving the company?
