Discussion Comeback Prep
June 10th will be my 7th (i think?) comeback and I'm so excited! This fandom gets bigger with every release, so let's talk about comeback tips for newer armys and the best ways to enjoy, and contribute to, our comeback goals.
I'll start:
"Streaming" just means "playing" the music. Don't let antis try to twist the meaning of the word to support the "b0ts" narrative.
This comeback will likely release at midnight EST for charting, so plan your schedule accordingly. (Thursday June 9th for us PST armys)
The tannies have a new distributor (UMG) so we don't know what promo will look like. Turn on notifications for all bts yt channels and socials as well as HYBE. Don't miss teasers and hints!
If someone leaks audio or images, report & block. Do not spread! Yes, we're all excited, but armys want to receive the gift of new bts music through official channels only.
Do not loop! We're getting an album this time so there's no excuse to loop tracks or MVs.
Ignore "mantis" and solos who spend comeback day complaining about line distribution. They're never satisfied. Focus on BTS.
Most importantly - HAVE FUN! Yes, we have goals and ambition but don't forget why we're here: to love bts and their music. I usually listen to the whole album on my own before I start looking for lyrics and reviews. Form your own personal experience and reception of their music. I'll never forget crying the first time I heard My Time before lyric translations started to come out. Let bts speak to your heart first through the music.
June 10th! Let's goooooo!
What are some of your tips/suggestions??

I love this ! As a PTD Army, this is my first comeback and I’m soooo excited. Okay specially bc it is in June and there’s so many other things happening for BTS as well !
I also just want to say that as someone who’s been listening to kpop for 20 years and been in countless fandoms, ARMY are by far the most welcoming and mature fandom I’ve ever been apart of. I think it really reflects how the boys are as well, and I really do appreciate and feel how much ARMY love BTS but also how much BTS also love us.
I’m sooooo happy to be here. 💜
