"His love for himself is really amazing..."

"What is this..."

"BTS's influence is [undefeatable]. LOl. Even if he acts out like this, he can't be the kind."

"This makes so angry, LOL."

"Stop this..."

"King???? Ridiculous. He was just obsessed with the Chinese and Japanese market...why is he like this?"

"What do you mean the king of K-Pop is not an artist but a producer...LOL."
