What bts is doing rn that you don't like? Lmao
First of all, and probably the most important - I don’t enjoy their music anymore. I came here during BS&T era and i still love this song, the whole concept, i love what they did back then. I ABSOLUTELY love spring day, and a couple of more newer songs, but last comebacks just.. weren’t for me i guess? I hoped boy with love would change my mind, but it just made me sigh even more.
I’m tired of all the cgi mvs. Their mvs and songs and concepts once were really innovative and something a lot of kpop groups looked up to, but now it’s just???? A flying shark? Really? Poorly drawn huge bts members crawling like fucking sleep paralysis demons? Not my cup of tea.
Also i kind of feel like the boys are very tired themselves. This thing about them thinking about disbanding in 2018 and the attitude they have rn. I feel like they never thought they would actually be THIS huge and they are just tired. Hobi said a million times that he has to be cheerful, jin still gets no lines or attention no matter what he does and it’s not like fans don’t love him, it feels like bighit doesn’t care. His voice is one of the best in the group? Also probably the most stable and he still can do nothing with it.
It feels like bighit cares only about namjoon and jungkook and I don’t know for what exact reason, but jungook is the only one who actually still looks sincerely cheerful, he also can do a lot of stuff that he likes like filming and covering songs etc, namjoon on the other hand looks too smug for me, but he also gets a lot of opportunities. I don’t get why jin is still not in kdramas or not modeling for big brands? Why he doesn’t have any solo projects. I know you can say that they are busy and he has enough money not to do anything and stuff, but jin was always that person who showed his dissatisfaction in the amount of lines he gets and stuff like that, he came here from a rich family to start with, he always wanted to do more.
The fandom makes everything just about winning and not about music and I’m tired of it. It’s not sports, it’s not a big race, it’s music, it’s art, it’s expression. It’s sad to say, but fandom.. makes it harder to stan the group. If you take just a tiny step back, away from all of this, you can clearly see that army is the most toxic fandom in kpop rn. I don’t know, maybe exols were very toxic back in the days, but rn? They are not? Most of the fandoms of other groups just take their time stanning their faves and doing stuff they like, while army screaming about bts being “not kpop” (which is just stupid anyways) still try to take any opportunity to mention that “y’all are shit and bts are kings”. Like I’ve said I’m ultimately in the monbebe fandom rn and there were a number of occasions when armies started drama about monsta x doing something or monbebes doing something, while no one previously even mentioned bts/army in any way. We were just doing our thing, enjoying our fave group, doing their thing.
Lastly, i know I’ll get shit for it, but whatever, when you take your time to actually look at other kpop groups you can actually see that bts are not the only group out there lmao and they are not the best. I’m glad they brought me into kpop one day, but I found groups that just work better for me. That I enjoy more. Army fandom just tucks you under this “they are the best, no need to see the others” mindset and you go with that. I went with that, a lot of people did too. I’m very happy if bts still makes you happy if you enjoy their music and if it’s “the one”, “ultimate” group for you. I really am happy, but it’s just not my ultimate group. Not in any way. And honestly it never was.
I’ve never knew what the word “stan” meant, untill i unstanned bts lmao, i was never even half as excited about things like vlives or selcas or all of the other content they make. I made myself like every member, and it took a lot of time. Maybe it was just never meant to be ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ what’s sad is that i now see a lot of people who say the same thing as me, who feel discouraged about new music and everything that’s going on. Maybe it’s not my problem after all, but maybe it is, I don’t know, but yeah. I unstanned.
