one direction were industry plants and were popularized because they were on the x factor. bts's achievements are entirely organic. https://twitter.com/ot5mademepoor/status/1249818333559611399

also who gives a single sh!t if they have all those things. everyone who was in that group was a piece of trash besides zayn and they all disliked being together. y'all go through great lengths to invalidate bts and their successes when they've done nothing to you.

one direction broke up. bts are on the rise and they're making history. let it go.

you all also seem to forget that bts are poc and have a huge disadvantage in this industry. all of one direction were white minus zayn. they had the upper hand. also all the stuff in this thread is almost entirely incorrect.
