When do you think the trendy BTS vs Exo fanwar will finally die down?

[Kim Seolhyun]

Like how the once trendy Sone vs BJ fanwar slowly came to an end in late 2014 (SNSD won that war lol)... when will the same happen for BTS vs Exo?

[Saint Twice]

When half of the members of each group enlists. 

[vitaminplus]

As the two top boy groups It will take some time maybe when they enlist ?? 

[pinkpanda_spirit]

when new groups will surpass them. but I wonder if that will happen, I can't see any new group becoming that famous (yet).

[U R Messy AF]

When one or both of them are inactive or move into a new era where other groups take up the mantle. I don't see either fandom being the bigger person and backing down before then.

[Nsfw]

When most of the fans of both groups  inevitably move on to newer and trendier groups so probably in like 2 years

[spilledmilk]

not soon enough.

 

I give it 2-4 more years.

[Kally]

Not anytime soon

[multiFandomaf]

When the bad "seeds" of each fandom decide to jump ship to the next hot thing smoking lol

[L'Amour]

If and when one or both groups become less relevant.

[yookihyunty]

honestly? never

 

there's bad blood, man

bad blood

[gore]

When I get a job

 

Just kidding I’ll never get one enjoy the neverending fanwar

[jungeunbii]

when there is a new trend boy group that will compete both bts and exo

[Avatarkyungsoo]

TBH, 10 years after both groups have disbanded and the fanwar would still be going on

[nanisore]

when each member will start to enlist and new, promising groups are rising.

[mochacapp]

It will be less visible but with BGs, it never die down (maybe except EXO vs BB one)

[CareBear08]

never.

[MidnightEXO]

It will be less visible but with BGs, it never die down (maybe except EXO vs BB one)

EXO vs BB was like LeBron vs Kobe never really went head to head for a championship so... the "fan war" died quick it wasn't worth it. 

 

 

I honestly feel BTS winning is the slow end to this "War" believe it or not. I don't see BTS being able to do what EXO has done in awards and I don't see EXO getting the western impact BTS has. 

 

So In the end both win, and it's 2018. I think another group will rise in my opinion.

[theidolcyborg]

Not yet

 

Maybe when they enlist or break up but I still think even with that it won't stop

[charaught]

Enlistment 

[Daria~]

When the next trendy boy groups rise to replace them.

[Saint Rose]

only when one falls off tbh the fanwar is mainly out of competition- thats why SONES and BJs are on pretty friendly terms rtn, 2NE1 disbanded and Soshi lost members- that helped in humbling down both fandoms tbh

[Rubixful]

When fans finally realize that another group's success doesn't automatically trigger the downfall of the other...

 

When they realize that rivalry and competition are drivers of success...

[Mutantsloth]

Yea enlistment maybe. When is Xiumin enlisting?

 

Honestly Exo has been so good I also have doubts whether any other group can be as consistent as them. LYH really hit it out of the ballpark in 2017 but whether they produce another stellar album in 2018 to continue the streak is anyone’s guess. If they do then well done I’m happy to have new songs to listen to. Then again if so fan wars will probably actually intensify instead of dying down. Oh the horror

in a couple of years definitely...when exo/bts' oldest members start to enlist and new groups will start to climb in popularity.

 

right now i think the reason why it's so bad is because bts' popularity sky-rocketed in a pretty short time (like compared to how long it's been since their debut and how they'd kinda stayed at a consistent level up until ~ bst-era, when it seems like they suddenly exploded)

so when bts like 'plateau' i think it'll be a lot calmer if ygm

 

also exo have totally dominated the scene for so long, only artists like bb were their rivals but even they were from a diff gen and so didn't overlap much. bts and exo are similar aged, debuted at similar times, have very similar demographics, etc etc. so everyone just seems to pit them against each other to generate buzz - even the media, award shows etc - they thrive off fanwars lol
