Do you really think it's fair to compare BTS, who are all Korean, with those lot who are full of foreigners? What a load of bullsh*t... And BTS are the pioneers who put K-pop on the map abroad no? Excluding Psy, who only had one hit song... Without BTS, those lot wouldn't have made it either;

They are an American group

Their fans are making a killing off K-pop, yet drawing a line between themselves and K-pop feels exactly like watching XGㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

Can you really compare them to Bangtan when they are a group composed of foreign members backed by HYBE's corporate capital, releasing songs in English and targeting the US market?

These lot are just riding the nationalistic hype wave, while existing K-pop fans were embarrassed about idolising Asians. But since there are Westerners there too, they can idolise without a care. Nationalistic marketing works in America too
