BTS announced they will take a break to work on solo projects but reassured fans that they will “return someday”
K-pop fans around the world, known as the “BTS Army”, were stunned by BTS’s announcement that the group will take a break to work on solo projects. The seven-member band — J-hope, Suga, RM, V, Jin, Jungkook and Jimin — held their annual FESTA dinner party on Tuesday, and in a pre-recorded video announced the “hiatus.” But the South Korean entertainment company behind BTS said they’ll still be working on projects as a group, as well as individually.
“BTS are not taking a hiatus. Members will be focusing more on solo projects at this time”, the statement said. RM lead the talk around the table, saying: “I always thought that BTS was different from other groups, but the problem with K-pop and the whole idol system is that they don’t give you time to mature.
