And I have something to say to those ignorant ppl complaining+
about BH 'stepping away' from BT5 to focus on growing their company.
To those ppl, I wanna ask: you do realize BT5 are humans who probably feel a shit ton of pressure to hold up an entire company on their own, right?

makes money, keeps staff employed, and keeps the company afloat.
On a simple human level, they are 7 men who will end up feeling responsible to work and earn enough profit for their company so the staff they know can survive during a pandemic. Can you imagine how stressful+

that is? How difficult was it for us to find any kind of joy during this pandemic? How many of us failed?
And yet BT5 should be the ones who put on a smile and get on stage to perform for an audience that isn't physically there? BH should be pushing BT5 to produce another+

album as quickly as possible and then put them in interviews around the world to promote it, right? BT5 should have more high-profile projects and prepare more mind-blowing, show-stopping content ASAP, right?
THAT'S what BH should be focused on... Right???
How cruel. +

To demand so much from people you don't even know, to point fingers and make accusations about business you know nothing about, to declare you know better about how BT5 should pursue their own career...
How selfish & entitled can you honestly be?
They are not your puppets.+

But beyond that, we all know BT5 are part-owners in BH now.
To those of you complaining, do you even UNDERSTAND what that means?

making an album on a concept they find meaningful but that might not be as popular/profitable, or pursuing a passion project outside BH, or trying a side career in some other field (like acting!), or most notably: TAKING THE TIME TO PAUSE THEIR WORK AND START A FAMILY.+
For 7 men who have put their entire life on hold so they could pursue their passion in music, who strive to maintain a squeaky clean image, who hide any potential romantic relations for fear it would hurt "fans" (side note: if you're hurt by this, I don't consider you an ARMY)+
wouldn't the greatest gift to them be the chance to experience a normal life in any measure? To step away from the intense scrutiny of the spotlight & breathe, be sloppy, find a romantic interest, fall in love, build a life together, start a family...
Don't BT5 deserve that?+
Don't BT5 deserve that?+
And yet these ignorant ppl claim that BH should be EXCLUSIVELY focused on BT5 to the exclusion of all else, prioritize BT5's growth and focus on working even harder to promote them, popularize them, make them grow Grow GROW-
Do you realize how fucking capitalistic that is? +
Do you realize how fucking capitalistic that is? +
Do you realize that you're thinking of BT5 as magical gods who never get tired or feel pressured, who never want a break or feel uninspired, who could never want to do anything with their lives except focus on their careers?
Do you realize you've forgotten they're human?+

This wasn't even the point I was trying to make when I started writing this thread.

make ART.
I wanted to showcase that every business move BH has made over the last couple yrs has shifted them steadily closer to this goal, and that I'm so proud of them for working to create a more sustainable model for entertainers - One where the focus is on treating idols+

as ppl, and not racehorses that need every drop of talent squeezed out of them to "realize their full potential".
Where idols don't have to be unrealistically perfect to be worthy of admiration and support.
Where online harassment & abuse of living beings is not tolerated. +

But most of these ignorant idiots aren't ready for that, are you?
Because it's much easier to write me off as a company stan & ignore what I'm trying to say.
Fine.
The joke's on you though... It's ppl who think like me who are the true ARMY that BT5 love so much.
Not you.
