@laismio952
I don't understand how monsta x can be so criminally underrated. Their songs are just ridiculously good
@curiefong5502
The Public Relations machine for BTS is always churning out stuff to make the members relevant to the point of attaining household name status. Other great bands like Monsta X and Super Junior among many others, don't need all the constant hype. They can get by pretty well on their merits. BTS , though a good band, will see a complete slow down in relevance, once the members get conscripted for Duty. They're fortunate enough with all the hard work they've put in in the past 10 years, they have staying power.
@imckyun
its super unfortunate that theyre so underrated. i swear they get unlucky all the time
@rosamariavalente7939
