idk who's idea it is. bighit? the music shows? either way its pretty annoying

for example the kbs performance


it seems like before every stage there absolutely NEEDS to be a montage of award winning, news reporters, a collage of screaming fans etc etc etc

anyone else notice this? it was cool the first few times but jeez

I'm not rlly one to complain about bighit, like them buying other companies and all that is a non issue , they're a company and want money i understand. but i suppose the nouveau riche have a reputation for a reason

They struggled and came from rags to riches and they were nugus once and now they are the biggest boy group, in case you didn't get it the first 50 times they showed you :rosesmug:

Mainly the excessive af autotune, lack of korean promo for BTS and the $50 BE album with no standard in site

This is why I got tired of their fans giving their "they struggled so much" stories. They aren't nugus anymore and they're pretty much the biggest boy group in the world right now. No need to give us the same crap over and over again

It's funny coz most of these fans weren't even around during their "struggle" days, they likely joined after BST or DNA when their global popularity exploded even more lol.

i don't mind armys doing it, a lot of them use it as like motivation or inspiration and there's nothing wrong with that. its reassuring. most armys r like 13 let them have positive role models

I mean I don't think it's a problem to use their story as motivation, but to constantly use their rags to riches story can be annoying. It's so overused

I feel like things have gotten like that after whatever 3rd ceo they added.. before it felt genuine and now its feeling like a cash grab
I really hope they cut it out.. because everything bts themselves do still feels genuine and bighit doesn't need to be forcing their money hungry fingers in that and making it into a gimmick. As if they need to do that to make money anyway lol

it used to make me emotional back like when they won their first daesangs but nowadays i think I just ignore it existing. if anything i get that feeling of their accomplishments from things completely unrelated to all of the flexing big hit/the networks do for their performances.
