"correct me if i'm wrong" oh don't mind if i do... armys this is your moment to take a deep breath if you need to, laugh a little, then i will carry on

okay so quick wikipedia tutorial for ot5mademepoor. when someone says "n/a" that means "not available," not 0 FUCKING DOLLARS. please think a thought. did you really look at the attendance and think their first 3 tours must have been free? i literally hate you

also a little lesson on what privilege is. every achievement bts makes is worth 10x more than any equivalent one direction achievement because bts are non-english speaking poc. everything they've achieved in the west they had to work harder for

especially the part about charts that only included the UK. y'all will whine at armys for calling bts the biggest group in the world but will only pull up numbers from english speaking countries. then when bts have incredible sales, crickets

imagine wasting all this time, and not just this person but all of y'all, making these fake easily debunkable threads just to be corrected every time. i've been a kpop fan for 7 years and ever since i can remember y'all have been loud for no reason

and don't go and say "correct me if i'm wrong" then go ahead blocking people that call you out on that fact. directioners talk big then all of a sudden tweets not loading

update to this thread after much searching i finally found billboard saying the 50 million number. i would love an itemized list but here is something yay

in addition to that i also need to update bts's sales. unfortunately the source i used is not updated to include their continued MOTS persona sales and includes none of MOTS 7 which is their best selling album to date and also doesn't include their OST singles so anyways-

UPDATED BTS ALBUM SALES:
- Map of the Soul: 7 ~ 5.4 million
- BTS World OST ~ 777k
OST SINGLES SALES (only includes chinese sales, so they're underestimated) ~ 726k
- Make It Right ft. Lauv ~ 269k (only China
- Black Swan ~ 278k (only China & US)
- ON ~ 86k (only US)

so when you add that up and figure in the fact that sales outside of china and the US aren't included in much of the singles, they're very likely at about 50 million sales right now or very close to it (these new figures put them at about 48 million)

also wanted to add some more fun twitter receipts bc that one gets me the most like you really think they're bigger on twitter how do y'all celebrate a birthday exactly

and another one just for fun

also wanted to add this bc somehow op thinks that being russian and being asian by geography in a majority white country means you can't be xenophobic towards east asians... also them comparing that to believing in reverse racism pick a struggle

speaking of directioners not checking their facts remember when they thought bts's "hiatus" was gonna be like 1d's bc they have trust issues this is about to turn into a directioner struggle thread lol

but wait there's more

them admitting they don't know how to do math
