"Focus on hyper consumption and metrics" ma'am were fighting for representation and the only way to do that was to make BTS impossible to ignore.
They don't realize that to even be visible BTS had to be the best in every category we could get an achievement for them.
BTS have had steady growth and popularity since 2015, but industry gatekeepers in Korea and the US have actively kept them out of the spotlight.
It took 4 albums and 3 years being on the bb200 for them to even get acknowledged by the US media and that was after we had worked to get them a fan voted award at the bbmas.
US radio had consistently ignored both their label and their fans overtures and requests for spins.
Before you sneer at the focus on performance maybe do a little research.
