I'm too broke, unless I acquire the funds by begging BPD/HYBE to make me their new CBO/CEO of a brand new gg company LOL.

Edit: or if I had Aladdins lamp I could wish for it.

Why not? I think I read elseweb their financial are poised to grow(and current financial are resilient with new tranche of investment either planned/negotiating so that any debt/due payments on debt aren't outstanding this year. Profits are down for most of the subsidiaries as far as I cam recall, tho I might be mistaken. It's not like I'm buying HYBE shares!

Yes I think it's a big factor in all considerations of kpop happenings between now and 1 year after all discharge. But remains to be seen how impactful is the return. Never before has a bg returned from long hiatus at this level not Beatles, ABBA, U2, 1Direction (idk if Nsync, BSB, NKOTB had long hiatus or just lvl of popularity/sales just plummetted/fell naturally), also forgot Boyzone, Take That, Blue, Bros, (wat's Gallagher bros band called? Oh right-oasis), nirvana - RIP, Foo fighters didn't reach nirvana levels of fame/popularity/fame(which I think is a boon/blessing for Dave grohl), maybe I'm forgetting others like Pulp(which didn't reach worldwide or much of US, I think).

I also think their fans coulda mostly aged out(which I think happened/or eventually woulda happened to 1D, obvious bgs above - exception might be ABBA/Beatles if they hadn't disbanded(maybe not at same level of sales/popularity/fame) [or younger fans drawn to younger boy groups, but diffracted/not all the same ones] but still... [edit before posting to avoid misunderstanding: following refers to beatles/abba not anyone else- end edit before posting] But they didn't get along/were tired of it(or whatever reasons they decided to break up). Idk since im not a shaman or geomancer LOL. Just my $0.02. Take it for my pov only/with a grain(large ocean?) of salt.

I do think their initial comeback would generate so much hybe that it would make hybe a shit tonne of money regardless of the "impact"
the individual members of BTS are also doing really well in their solo endeavours so the group coming back as a whole would probably take hybe from the red to the black

now whether it would hit pandemic levels of sales - I dunno but the only thing I can equate it too (in recent years) is Big Bang's comeback - they PAKd and it was a huge success even if the group didn't promote the song at all on music shows and that was only a digital album
