ARMY vs. @sykeonair, an informative thread
yes @sykeonair please come at me in my mentions, i’m a former debate kid and THRIVE off validated dissent and can go all day. ready when you are!
so, who is the dude? syke is an american interviewer who had an interview w BTS. this isn’t a problem itself cause ARMY loves a good interview.
but a good interview means being respectful (to both BTS and ARMYS) and not chasing clout and acting like a petulant child, which is quite unprofessional.
to start out, syke posted a photo and ARMY noticed that BTS did not look entirely enthused, given the tae test

case in point:
(for the uninitiated, tae can sniff out fake snakes and does it well. if he looks unhappy in a photo for an interview, that’s almost a surety that BTS ain’t pleased)

they look less than enthused. hobi, the human personification of sunshine looks like he’s just been forced to read an 800 page car manual, tae has a death stare, yoongi’s alternating between being about to take a nap and writing the next cypher [1/2]
...joon’s fake laugh is back, and jin who is pretty much the nicest and most polite person on the planet looks like he’s ready to throw hands. [2/2]
syke was quite demeaning of ARMYs on his instagram stories, implying that BTS fans are crazed, immature teenage girls. that stereotype is a quick way to get ARMY up in arms.

then when ARMY started to pop up in his mentions, syke decided to take offense to some pretty justified criticisms. pro tip, don’t be on the internet is you can’t take what you dish

now let’s review the pettiness, dismissal of valid criticism, and plain disrespect that syke has thrown ARMYs way
calling us losers? wouldn’t recommend that. we don’t take kindly to either BTS or ARMY being insulted. it’s a family around here.
if u really did your research, you would know that 1) plenty of people have met BTS and we take 0 issue w them cause they aren’t patronizing and rude 2) way to act like a petulant child by gloating over something so trivial. congrats.

also, there’s a running joke that ARMYs will run in the opposite direction if they ever encounter BTS irl becuase we don’t want to make them uncomfy or intrude on their personal space/time. we don’t want to meet them like that! or some ARMYs at all cause it’s overwhelming
u don’t get to determine who is a true fan. we aren’t slobbering all over your interview because u forget that BTS interact w us on twitter, write us letters, play games w us, hold live streams, and record videos for us.

we have plenty of content and we don’t need urs given it’s a repeat of previously asked questions. plus, any ARMY is a “true fan” except for sasaengs and akgaes

now for the big guns, dissing their music. if you think ARMY was mad, get ready. now syke is a DJ for long island radio, yet gave ON only one spin and then said this. karma’s an ARMY. it’s uncalled for and backhanded. syke should be playing cause it’s damn good music.

trying to argue that “management sends out questions”. yes, there is a list of approved questions and there have been many interviews that were sanctioned by bighit that had a great response from ARMY.
see james corden, liam mcewen, zach sang, etc. BTS has even talked abt how they feel comfy w these interviewers

syke said we were making assumptions based of a picture,, well since the whole thing came out you can see for yourself (and ps there’s more than 1 pic just sayin)

here’s my list of rudeness/faux pas in the interview (yes i watched the whole thing)
1. interrupting BTS during their introduction. that’s rude.
2. talking over them and very quickly. english isn’t their first language. at least give them a chance to process and speak. it’s much harder to articulate yourself in a 2nd language
“the music was good enough to go to number one”-syke — first, that’s demeaning as hell when BTS is known for their artistry and self-production of their music. [1/2]
everyone at this point, esp someone who is meeting them in PERSON, should know that they aren’t just a vapid boyband. they have won the korean medal of cultural merit (given by the SK president). that’s isn’t given out for just ANY music or artists [2/2]
4. namjoon’s fake laugh. that’s all i gotta say.
5. bananas? not necessarily rude, just a bizarre comment https://twitter.com/luvkoobis/status/1235393695547088899?s=21">https://twitter.com/luvkoobis...
6. “as you guys know [ARMY] are pretty insane” *crickets chirping* don’t insult ARMY in front of BTS, they don’t vibe w that shit

7. “what’s the idea behind solo tracks on 7” well syke, if u did ur research you would know that almost all their full albums have solo tracks and it’s nothing new
8. idk how many times it has to be said by fans and even BTS has said they don’t wanna head to collab question, stop asking it! do u think so little of BTS to think that they will only be able to reach new pillars of success through collaboration w english speaking artists?
and for YOU to suggest who u want them to collab with? that’s pretty damn bold of u and pretty dang disrespectful
TLDR: @SykeOnAir, you’re an adult, primarily interacting with minors and yet behaving even more childishly. unprofessional.
