“but i wanted them to perform” “but they should do it for exposure” “but why aren’t they attending if they are in sk?” I don’t know, maybe they simply have different priorities right now? and that’s perfectly fine. they spent YEARS working relentlessly, went through an incredibly demanding period of their lives in the military, and now they’re in the middle of an INSANE world tour. maybe, just maybe, we can let seven grown men who have given so much of themselves to their careers decide where they want to be and what they want to do. they have absolutely nothing left to prove.

unpopular opinion, but some people love to say that bts is beyond k-pop, only to turn around and expect them to follow the k-pop playbook at every turn. bts have made it clear countless times that they’re now doing things on their own terms, with the freedom to make their own choices. let them attend what they want, perform where they want and follow whatever path feels right to them. stop projecting your expectations onto them. they told you exactly who they wanted to be. it’s past time to start listening.
