“BTS’s Jungkook and V must not have wanted to renew their contracts at that time”

This netizen re-examined BTS members’ old interview. Suga said, “At the time, we were working on the album and discussing the contract renewals. That’s when Namjoon, J-Hope and I wrote the lyrics for ‘Tear’, and I sent a long message to you guys.” V shared, “After Jungkook and I heard what you said, it gave us renewed strength and a more positive mindset. I never thought you’d be the one to say something like that, but when you did, it really touched us deeply and was so moving. It became a moment that helped us find more motivation.”

The netizen wrote, “This was around BTS’s contract renewal season, and there was chaos with rumors that they weren’t going to renew. Honestly, BTS should have gone their separate ways back then. It seems more certain after reading Suga’s interview. They should leave HYBE, for real. They should just leave and start by filing lawsuits.”

The Pann article regarding this became a hot topic with nearly 95,000 views as of the afternoon of Oct 30th. Below are some comments from Korean netizens.

– Honestly, it might have been better to follow the vice president who created the “The Most Beautiful Moment in Life” era. With just that vice president, they could regain top-tier status.

– They should’ve left back then, the two of them.

– They almost disbanded for real. They mentioned it at the 2018 MAMA Awards, and right after a news article came out saying they were looking for a lawyer, suddenly the whole community started pointing fingers at BTS. Later, when BTS renewed their contracts, we found out they didn’t even have a lawyer at that time. Even if they didn’t know it then, now they should know better and leave to pursue the music they want. If they stay, it only benefits Bang Si Hyuk.

– They should leave. Because of HYBE and toxic fans, they’ll never be able to soar within this company.

– The two of them should have left.
