BTS talks about K-pop industry's toxicity

BTS has released their anticipated album, Arirang and has also launched their documentary, BTS: The Return, which showcased the process.

The album features the discussion and the making of the songs, but also has a few moments which made fans think about what the crooners have to deal with behind the scenes.

The group has always been very vocal about the stress and the pressure that comes with being a K-pop idol, as this time again, the leader, RM, has opened up about it.

Going first for the interview, dedicated to the documentary, the rapper gushed, “I started making music because there was something I wanted to say to the world, but being in the K-pop system means there’s constant output, so we gotta keep moving.”

He added, “I lost my sense of who we are as a team. And if I express that we need a break, it almost feels like to even admit that, I feel guilt, like I’m committing a crime.”

Jin and Jungkook also backed up the stance and talked about the pressure of getting done with the work on time, and how they can’t take time and enjoy it.

It is to be noted that the K-pop industry is known for the strictness and tight schedule, Idols suffer from, and sometimes they are not allowed to open about it in public.
