In recent days, information about BTS focusing on individual activities instead of groups has attracted attention from domestic and international media. The major British daily newspaper - The Times also had an article about this event with the title: "Why is the world's most famous group temporarily suspended?".

Here, the author of the analysis who also interviewed BTS in 2018 - Richard Lloyd Parry - mentioned the difficulties the group faced when operating in the K-pop entertainment industry.

The Times Asia correspondent wrote: "They look depressed, more tired than passionate, enthusiastic. They are the most pressured dollar millionaires I have ever met."

Redefining the unique quality in music

According to a PhD in Korean Studies and Teaching at Seoul Women's University, Hanyang University, BTS's future products are bland and half-hearted. Instead of making a difference to dominate their own market, the group followed trends to conquer international charts. Much of the reporting on BTS focuses on numbers, not music.

Debuting in 2013, BTS members were recruited to create the group Hip Hop. The group's first debut stage with the debut single "2 Cool 4 Skool" was full of personality of the music genre born in the 1970s.

Based on the Hip Hop platform, BTS has expanded the range with many different colors. The lyrics were composed by the members themselves, expressing youthful aspirations and ambitions, upholding individualism and conveying many profound humanistic meanings.

This orientation is proven right from the debut products like No More Dream, Run, Boy In Luv, Dope or to later hits like Fire, Not Today... But the reality shows that the group is gradually moving away. typical Hip Hop quality since Butter and Permission To Dance - hits that brought BTS to international reach.

Although this change is completely suitable with the context and development of the times, for those who have followed and loved BTS since day one, they still "crave" the music with the distinctive color of the past. .

Because it is the simple lyrics and true, non-floral emotions that are the root cause of them coming to BTS.

During the Festa Dinner, RM shared that BTS decided to temporarily stop working together to focus on personal development. As the leader of the group, he confessed to being disoriented, "I realized that the group has definitely changed. We have to accept that we have changed. For me, BTS is still within reach for me. to ON and Dynamite. But after Butter and Permission To Dance, I don't know what kind of group we were."

The leader of BTS added, "Communicating messages through lyrics is an important part of my life. But right now, I don't know what I should talk about."

Therefore, RM as well as the members want to take time to reflect on themselves and orient their own musical identity. According to The Times, BTS needs to have their own space to create art as well as help their soul-healing music be reborn.

Get inspired with music

RM said BTS has worked hard together for 9 years and they feel exhausted.

Although each individual is talented and has a large fan base, they still put the group's interests first. It is the collective strength that has brought BTS to the top of their career. But it is also this power that becomes a big barrier for the members to go solo.

According to The Times, the idol system abused BTS without giving them time to develop. 7 members once mentioned that they do not have time to meet family and friends, are not allowed to date, and rest.

Their lives are not like ordinary people. The group's eldest brother also admitted at the Festa Dinner party, "I feel like I've become a machine even though I have my own hobbies and jobs that I want to do."

BTS is the name that has brought Kpop music to the world, contributing to the development of cooperation relationships between Korea and other countries in many fields such as culture, politics, commerce, tourism... bring huge economic benefits to the country. However, the increasing influence of the group means that the responsibility of the group is heavier and heavier.

Talking about the pressure that BTS has to endure, the British reporter said that it is no longer merely working for the group's passion or the company's reputation, BTS now has to shoulder the responsibility of the whole country even. of a whole generation of young people around the world.

Leader RM confided, "I debuted as a singer. Everything happened and I took on more responsibility to society. Then in a way, I was carrying a responsibility to the whole world. We probably don't deserve so much. We're not that special or smart. But we've always been steadfast in our pursuit of a common goal with all our efforts."

If BTS is the people who write history, then ARMYs (BTS's fanclub) are the central characters in the glorious history they create. For the 7 members, fans are the core factor that shapes the group's name. Because of this, they feel guilty when they say tired, exhausted.

Behind the aura of the stage are the pressures on the shoulders of world-famous stars.

But after all, solo activities are inevitable for the members to consolidate their roles.

Jimin confided, "We started thinking about how each person wants to be an artist to be remembered by fans. So this is a difficult period for us. BTS has entered a new phase. , a time when we were trying to find our own identity."

Jung Kook said the solo activities should have come earlier, but the group delayed it because they wanted to focus on promoting BTS's name.

And most of all, they want to take time for themselves to find joy in music as well as to create a better version of BTS in the future. Only then can all 7 members continue to work together for a long time.
