1. [+1,082, -113] I'm an older fan and joined the fandom late and I've just been waiting for a Korean comeback....💓

2. [+991, -88] They've taken over not only America but Japan too, BTS is the best global K-Pop star

3. [+926, -84] As expected! Their Japanese album is top 200 on the Billboard's main chart

4. [+58, -7] Can't even imagine what they'll achieve with their next album

5. [+54, -12] Even as a man, I can see how damn hard working they are. I feel like a parent who raised their kid out of poverty and is now seeing that son go off to Seoul University.

6. [+47, -1] BTS really changed public sentiment in Korea around after their year-end activities last year. Their Nate articles were usually full of hate but I think people came around after seeing how hard working they were on their year-end stages. The way they went up to receive their daesang right after putting on a killer stage and looking like they were about to pass out... So many people always wondered "why are they so popular overseas?" but they get it now

7. [+44, -6] The best thing about finding out about BTS is that even when I feel sad or depressed, it doesn't last long because I feel like BTS heals me ㅜㅜ

8. [+42, -7] Daebak!!! Feels so good to see them growing!!

9. [+42, -6] Grats grats~ ^^ When are we getting a new Korean song?

10. [+41, -1] Stack up that money, boys. Look at all those buildings KARA was able to afford with the money they made from their Japanese promos.
