South Korean boy band BTS announced their indefinite hiatus during their annual Festa dinner streaming. the annual dinner is to celebrate the anniversary of the band,

The fans were left in tears after the announcement. The band reflected on the year together.

The Grammy-nominated band talked about being ‘exhausted’. “I’ve always thought that BTS was different from other groups But the problem with K-pop and the whole idol system is that they don’t give you time to mature. You have to keep producing music and keep doing something… I’ve changed as a human over the past 10 years, so I needed to think and have some alone time. Right now when we’re at our best I feel like I should be contributing something to the world, but I don’t know what that is,” said RM.

“It’s not like we’re disbanding. We should live doing what we want to do. We’ll probably die when we reach 100 and we can’t be BTS until then, I don’t think that’s an easy feat to achieve. Writing lyrics is the hardest. What message do we want to give? Nothing comes out anymore.” added Suga.

All the members talked about more solo projects and continued to create music for their fans. The fans were left in tears at the end of the streaming of the feast.

The members hinted at their goal to “figure things out” and “trying to find our identity” while on their hiatus. This triggered a massive impact on the band, as the shares of the record label, Hybe corporative dropped by 27%, recording the lowest since October.

Big Hit Entertainment agency, the management for the K-pop group, clarified that the band is not going on hiatus. The miscommunication took place after the English subtitle of the live streaming mistranslated the term “break” into ‘hiatus’. the band will manga the group projects while dividing relatively more information on a solo project.

The band has taken hiatus twice, the first time in 2019 and the second time in December 2021.
