LOS ANGELES—Drake’s recent BTS shoutout has sent shockwaves through the K-pop world. Specifically, it has left BTS members V and J-Hope reportedly paralyzed. The unexpected lyrical nod appeared on Drake’s new track, “Make Them Cry.” Sources close to the group confirmed the duo entered a catatonic state. They were found staring blankly at a framed photo of a single grape. Medics determined their vital signs were stable. However, their artistic souls seemed to be in turmoil.

A Career Questioned

“This changes everything,” stated Dr. Evelyn Park, Professor of Applied Existentialism at Yonsei University. “Drake’s acknowledgment implies a discovery. But BTS has been globally dominant for years. This suggests they were… undiscovered? It’s a paradox.” Dr. Park theorized the members were grappling with a sudden revisionist history of their own success.

J-Hope reportedly began to hum faint nursery rhymes. V attempted to communicate using only interpretive dance. His movements, however, were described as “less choreography, more flailing.” The group’s management has postponed all upcoming activities indefinitely. They cited “profound identity confusion” as the primary reason.

Therapeutic Measures Implemented

“We tried playing their greatest hits,” said Choi Min-jun, Lead Emotive Support Specialist for Big Hit Entertainment. “But V just whispered, ‘Are we new here?’ J-Hope then asked if we could perhaps ‘start small,’ maybe with a local talent show. Drake’s BTS shoutout has fundamentally altered their perception of reality.” Psychologists recommended a full immersion therapy. This involves re-watching their early career documentaries. It aims to re-establish their pre-Drake understanding of fame.

Meanwhile, Drake has yet to comment on the psychological fallout. His new album “Views From the 6ixteenth Dimension” is expected to drop next month. Learn more about Drake’s influence here. The K-pop stars remain under observation.

At press time, V reportedly asked if anyone had heard of a “small, up-and-coming group” called “BTS,” just as J-Hope attempted to audition for a street mime troupe.
