Lol at anything of the chainsmokers being described as "signature" they're so unoriginal...as an album track they're going to get a nice cut from album sales, especially if there is a repackage

I kind of like that the chainsmokers collab is only good enough to be a b-side track though lol

[stephantasm.livejournal.com]

they might as well get a lovecall from 21 pilots and post malone at this point.

...They don't love themselves. Imma love myself and skip that song

[happydirections.livejournal.com]

all i'm getting from this is that they aren't actually featuring on the track and that's that matters

[lemonadetea.livejournal.com]

No thank you.

BTS tired of crashing Naver servers, move on to the next one

It's a thread

Okay, this is more pleasant news! I'm sad I'll be asleep while it's happening.

(But did they have to pick the 21st? Exo-l might flip out even more because that's Jongdae's birthday argh.)

[black-swan87.livejournal.com]

The chainsmokers just posted a video of themselves making and laughing at a joke about Chinese people eating dogs so fuck them




It's too bad it too late to get this song off the album because I don't want bts associated with these human versions of doo doo water that won't flush down the toilet

[black-swan87.livejournal.com]

God I really hate these talentless racist douchebag twats

[ms-minniemaus.livejournal.com]

I'm...heh at least it's a b-side song and not the title track. Anyway, we all saw this coming unfortunately

[jyusou.livejournal.com]

why don't bts love themselves

[3677.livejournal.com]

lol people are really pessimist about it, but I see it as them probably getting more airplay on radio due to this, or more opportunities to work with other western artist/producers, I won't judge the song till I hear it tbh

in other news the chainsmokers are still trash lol

[mc1a.livejournal.com]

I think most people are bothered by WHO they collaborated with rather than the end result.

[katheli.livejournal.com]

well it's a B-side and just one track so I'm okay with it
and at least the (more) racist Chainsmoker isn't the one who was involed so yay

I love the extra concept pics, urine filter and all. They look angelic. That hair on Taehyung, Namjoon and (surprisingly, took me a bit to get used to it) Yoongi is all I ever wanted. And Kookie looks extra good in the O version too.

[smilla-sini.livejournal.com]

Lmao as if they weren't famous for their questionable taste with all the Bieber/Puth covers etc.

[hyungmoney.livejournal.com]

t!

[gathyou.livejournal.com]

And they just tweeted a racist joke against Asians... like dudes, no, why are you doing that to yourselves, are you that stupid?
Before the first Omona post about BTS meeting the CS, I didn't knew them. Of course I heard their songs on the radio but that's it. Their interviews... uh I wish I could unlearn what I read about them. BUT they still get a lot of airplay and successful songs, plus it's only a bside after all. I hope it will be a good song nonetheless and that it will open better opportunities for BTS.

But please, BTS, pick someone better next time u_u

[pourtant.livejournal.com]

they did tell us this would happen but i thought it would be like, a one-off single, not an actual track on an album. and of course it will be mediaplayed to hell and back, this comeback is tainted now. whatever place on the charts and radio play they get from this track i feel like i won't be able to celebrate because it's the fucking chainsmokers, sigh

[callherblondie.livejournal.com]

A stan I follow on Twitter said Suga's gonna be rapping over a fisher price piano beat LMAO.
HAHA...but where's the lie? Srsly, I'm already embarrassed and facepalming, oh Yoongi.

[dynamite-state.livejournal.com]

So that was that

[torontok.livejournal.com]

It ain't too late to bin this mess of a track @ Big Hit. Collaborating with The Chainsmokers on an album called 'Love Yourself" is an oxymoron in and of itself

[violoncelliste.livejournal.com]

lol exactly

[welljustguess.livejournal.com]

Thanks for the naver link, OP!

[goshipgurl.livejournal.com]

You know bangtantheydidnt will be all over the track after it gets released

LMFAOO

[shadownashira.livejournal.com]

The only upside I see is that they're going to get this out of their system and hopefully never do it again.

Please don't let them somehow have a live performance together when BTS tours in the US. Please.

[mc1a.livejournal.com]

Watch them be invited at the MAMAs and do a collab stage with BTS.

[violoncelliste.livejournal.com]

great comment

[mjspice.livejournal.com]

Whet? Delete this combo immediately like the way they deleted their racist video.

[nekobot.livejournal.com]

As gagworthy as this is it was expected and they'll probably ignore any critique since it's not like they'd scrap the track from the album at this point. I'm more disappointed with the fan response which seems to be more unapologetic defend oppa and anyone with a blue tick who tweets at him, full of glee, glossing over their racist bullshit and still holding on to some delusional idea of "Western artists recognize BTS' talent!" while conveniently ignoring what is probably their main motivation: the nice royalty cut these woman hating assholes are going to get from the truckloads of albums BTS are going to sell.
