She did the right thing, cause there's nothing about that guy's performance that needed to be hyped up

why are y’all shocked that BTS and BTS adjacent is 75% of HYBE’s business

do y’all understand the massive scale they operate on

 

it's bc this thread & curated twt timelines are echo chambers

it's easy to forget how ridiculous powerful & incomparable bts are when you're surrounded by people who downplay them as well

 

 

 

just this june a survey was done were bts' brand power was listed next to huge names like Youtube, Netflix,.. etc

if you can build an 11 BILLION+ company on the back of just 1 group, you know they are on a whole other level

birthday is an overhated fun bop and the mini is cute but it totally ruined RV’s momentum

the fact that it debuted at top 20 (+ peaked there) and started falling down the charts quickly

 

with the right song they will quickly bounce back though 

I think Birthday was a decent song, but the promotion in that era was horrible. SM really screwed a lot of things up, plus they basically did no promotion because then SM forced the girls to start preparing for the SMCU album and concert right after, which was happening in December/January, plus GOT The Beat (which is one of the reasons why ReVeluvs boycotted it along with MYs, causing Stamp On It to flop in physicals)

 

They've had several moments which appear to ruin the "momentum" but they still remain relevant regardless. I think the non-obvious/unpredictable concepts are part of their charm and probably actually helped their longevity in the long run.

She woke up and chose excellence on the day she recorded this

 

would’ve been a 25000 year PAK multi-decade #1 SMASH had it been the title i fear

Holy visual boy

[hétérosexuelle]

I hope Wonyoung sings about NOT bowing to anyone’s talentless smelly oppa’s, tell them how you feel QUEEN

 

a queen never bows down to a m*n

 

 

And that’s on WontBowYoung

for sure 

to think they got one of their biggest hits (FMR) 8 years into their career is amazing

[Witnessed ET]

No offense but I don’t see what’s so gag worthy about Wonbin’s visuals. same goes for HyunBotchedJin

Also talking about Hyunjin, I feel so bad for Troye ngl @Selenasworld

 

the way he was shooting his shot and expressing his attraction to him as a normal young man does, but he didn’t know how deranged the kpop stans truly are when it comes to their oppars

Imagine calling 127’s R&B tracks their “worst songs” when they have this pile of **** sitting in their discography:

 

Please be serious.

All of these except wakey wakey are good though.

Not too much on Tasty which is noise done right, Bring the trash, Flop Dog, Sit Down is where their bad music is at.

But these songs are great.

If it was objective, Jiwoong all day everyday. But since Riize already has so much hype being a sm bg and Wonbin already being pushed aggressively, he’ll  probably take it

 

dont get me wrong, Wonbin does have that effortless beauty but he doesn’t stand a chance in front of Jiwoong

I'm not used to the fact It's already 5th gen

they all do, jail for whoever suggested this  ngl I expected minho to look a little more natural considering all the body he likes to display on stage but I guess this was too much even for him

5th gen is kinda a flop tbh. Like all the groups that had debuted this year hasn’t really made as much noise compared to the rookies that debuted last year

Your faves also debuted as flops and they allegedly started 4th gen. The streets say they are popular now

The way SM snatched these two by sliding into their Instagram DMs is kinda wild (and lucky!)
