k pop Group BTS has declared a temporary suspension of group activities nine years after its debut.

Leader RM said, “It feels like our team was on my hands until Dynamite, but I don’t know what kind of team we are from Butter and Permission To Dance,” adding, “What kind of talk and what kind of message we’re talking about is very important, but that kind of meaning has disappeared.”
The members cited the “individual growth” that they were buried in team activities as the background for the temporary suspension of group activities.
“The K-pop idol system itself does not let people mature,” RM said. “I don’t have time to grow up because I have to keep filming and doing something.”
“As a human being, I’ve changed a lot from 10 years ago,” he said. “After spending a lot of time alone in the back, they have to mature and come out as mine, but after 10 years of BTSing and physical schedules, I couldn’t mature.”
RM also said, “I think we should function in any way in the world at the time of our heyday, but I didn’t give him time to think,” adding, “I don’t know when our team is from.” I didn’t know where my team and I were going to go in the future,” he added.
He said, “It became a rap adaptation machine, and if I worked hard in English, my role was over,” adding, “My team lost its direction, and I wanted to come back after thinking about it, but it seemed to be rude when I said this.” “The fans raised us, but I felt like we were not repaying them,” he said.
Suga also said, “The lyrics, I couldn’t say anything,” and was squeezing it out (from some point on). I really have nothing to say right now. “I don’t know what to say,” he said, bringing out the pain of creation.
BTS said it will officially carry out solo music activities that have been conducted only with “mixtape” (non-regular album) due to changes in its future activities. The first batter is expected to be J-Hope.
“I think we need to talk about BTS’s keynote change on his personal album,” J-Hope said. “It’s an important part of going to Chapter 2 of BTS.”
RM said, “We will now officially convert the content called mixtape into an (official) album,” adding, “From J-hope’s content, we will officially release it.” “It’s too late to express something individually,” he said.
Jin said, “I wanted to be an actor,” adding, “As I experience more things as I become an idol, I feel that I have no lingering feelings for you (actor). But life is something you don’t know.”
BTS released its album “Proof,” which organizes Chapter 1, on the 10th, and sold more than 2 million copies. In other words, “arranging Chapter 1” meant that it would eventually take a short break in the team’s activities. BTS temporary suspension.
RM said, “I’m so sorry that I couldn’t show you the performance that people wanted (this time),” but added, “I’ll show you properly when we get together later.”
“I want to play BTS for a long time.” “If we want to do it for a long time, I have to remain as myself,” he said. “Even if we can’t dance as cool as in the past, I want to remain as BTS and RM.”
