This is what Global Kings behavior looks like. No mediaplay, no payola or what so ever-

[Spero]

Proud is an understatement 

[Smile Hoya]

WHO'S DOING IT LIKE BTS WHOOOOOO

[ParadiseMaze]

Holy CRAP. 0.o There was some discussion on reddit about how they're big but are they really BIG big globally?

 

I think this proves it pretty clearly: they REAL BIG.

[Augusto]

The only global group whose status is confirmed, the others use pompous nicknames for mediaplay only.

[CHART BULLIES BTS]

JSHSHSJS WHEWWWW THEY REALLY DID THAT

 

and yet Kaypop stans are acting like their flop favs are some type of threat to BTS. Like puhhh-lease..!!

[intronevermind]

PERIOD.

 

This is a BTS world and we are living in it. The day just keeps giving phew. They are on their way to becoming global music legends (if they aren't already). Love that for my mainstream pop boys!
