False Rumors About BTS That People Still Believe To Be True

Popularity sure comes with a price, tons of rumors, and the public lurking in your private lives. The popular South Korean idol group BTS had been involved in several rumors since they started. However, some of them were not true. Sadly, up to this day, people still believe these false rumors regarding the boy group.

People Believe BTS Is “Manufactured”

In the K-pop industry, stars are often tagged as “manufacturers.” This is a term used by people since most K-pop idols were trained from a young age. So their talents and skills are believed to be manufactured. Also, many people, especially non-Koreans, think that all K-pop idols have somewhat undergone plastic surgery of some sort. This rumor is not true. BTS is not “manufactured” in terms of talent and looks.

All BTS Fans Are Underage Teeny Boppers

This is an obvious myth and one that is being spread by International media. The truth is, a lot of ARMYs are young, but a lot of them are also aged 20 up. The ARMYs is a huge fanbase composed of people from all walks of life and ages from students to professionals.

They’re Just Another Bubblegum Pop Group

BTS may be a K-pop idol group, but their music is profound. The group is composed of multi-talented individuals that can write and make music. Each member contributes to the songwriting process making their music touch the listeners’ hearts. Their albums are filled with sincerity and emotions. If you haven’t checked them out yet, you should start now!

The group recently made rounds on social media for an angelic performance of their newly-released Japanese song “Your Eyes Tell.” You can watch it here.

They’re All Looks No Talent

Sadly, a lot of people still believe this. But surely, those people haven’t seen or heard the group perform! In today’s generation, where people think that all it takes to be a successful performer is good looks, BTS inevitably breaks the stigma. BTS members all look good and are multi-talented too! That’s what makes their group standout! Since 2013, the group had only made beautiful music and fantastic performances!

They’re Not Songwriters

They are! Many people think that the group only sings whatever is handed to them, but this is false. BTS members all get to have a say on their lyrics and songwriting process. Each member contributes and pitches in during album/song making. To name one, BTS Rap Monster wrote at least a hundred songs on his own.

BTS Is Big Hit’s Puppet

A big fat false! Big Hit Entertainment may manage BTS, but the agency cannot control them. Like any other company, they have rules to follow like the dating ban and such, but when it comes to making their music, BTS has full creative control over their albums. They’re also allowed to decide their concept, video choreographies, etc.

Their Friendship Is Not Real

It’s a common misconception that idol groups’ friendships are only for show. However, this is not always the case. Some groups may have members who don’t like each other privately, but BTS members’ friendship is genuine. I don’t know the boys personally, but you’d know their friendship is real if you read reports and interviews about them. It has that genuine vibe to it. Even other celebrities think so. Plus, the people who had worked with them always say how BTS members treat each other like family.
