LOS ANGELES—BTS suited up for slick new promo videos on Thursday. The videos teased their upcoming Netflix special. The special celebrates the band’s 10th studio album. “BTS THE COMEBACK LIVE | ARIRANG” will air Saturday. Fans can expect intense choreography. They can also expect soulful ballads. The band promised a “transformative experience.” This is their first major comeback. Their last album dropped two years ago. BTS hoped the slick new promo videos would build anticipation. They are not sure if the videos are working.
The Pressure Cooker of Comebacks
BTS felt immense pressure. Their previous work set a high bar. The slick new promo videos showed them in sharp suits. One video featured a single tear rolling down a cheek. Another showed a close-up of a perfectly sculpted jawline. “We poured our blood, sweat, and tears into this,” said BTS’s lead choreographer, J-Hope Shadow. “We really hope the audience feels it. We hope they feel our existential angst.” The band members reportedly ate only plain rice for three months. They felt this would enhance their performance. They wanted to embody the album’s themes. The themes are reportedly about the fleeting nature of fame.
Netflix Confirms Existential Dread
Netflix released a statement. It confirmed the special’s unique tone. “This is not just a concert,” the statement read. “It is a journey into the heart of artistic struggle.” It also confirmed the slick new promo videos were accurate. “Viewers should prepare for profound emotional resonance.” BTS member Suga Yoongi stated, “We are ready to bare our souls. We are ready to make you cry.” He then winked at the camera. The band hoped this would provide clarity. Fans were reportedly confused by the statement. They just wanted to dance. They wanted to hear catchy tunes. They did not want to contemplate their own mortality. Netflix is also reportedly nervous. Their stock dipped 0.5% after the announcement. They fear the special might be too depressing. They may add a laugh track. They may also add a 24/7 customer service hotline. Fans can get more information on the upcoming album here.
At press time, BTS had reportedly filed a restraining order against their own slick new promo videos. They claimed the videos were too emotionally manipulative. They demanded the videos be removed from all platforms. They also requested a public apology from their marketing team.
