The whole world is in a standstill following the coronavirus outbreak. After learning its severity, world leaders have implemented certain rules such as social distancing and nationwide lockdown in an attempt to stop the spread of COVID-19.
While ARMYs understand the emergency protocol, they were devastated with the news because BTS was set for an epic comeback and RM, Jin, Suga, J-Hope, Jimin, V, and Jungkook were ready for their 2020 world tour. However, these plans were postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic.
ARMYs knew that there is nothing that they could do about the situation. So instead, they decided to relive their excitement when BTS announced their 2020 comeback and they are now setting new goals for the group’s “re-comeback.”
The goal is to trend the “pre-release” hashtag #MOTS7isComingAGAIN, then the “release day” hashtags #MOTS7_Re_Comeback, #BTSReComeback2020, #MOTS7isHereAGAIN, and #ReliveMOTS7. There were also time zones specified as to what day and time these hashtags will be used. (Check out the photo here).
Aside from the hashtags, ARMYs are also setting new charting and streaming project to achieve new global goals such as two million additional views for “Black Swan,” “On Kinetic Manifesto Film,” and “On” official music video. (Check out the photo here).
It is safe to say that ARMYs are missing BTS a little too much, but the truth is that the feeling is mutual. Due to the coronavirus pandemic, RM, Jin, Suga, J-Hope, Jimin, V, and Jungkook were not able to spend time with ARMYs during their much-awaited comeback.
On March 22, BTS took to social media to share a message of hope during the global health crisis and reflected on how important the presence of their fans was.
“We want to thank the nursing officers, medical staff and everyone battling this virus to protect the safety and lives of the people,” J-Hope said. "We realize more than ever how meaningful our everyday life was. Standing on a stage facing empty seats, we realize how precious each moment with you was,” Jin added. “I hope soon we’ll again be able to see those we love, share a meal and talk together. I hope soon we’ll sing and be happy together with you,” V said.
The rest of the boys also shared their piece, and RM ended the message by asking everyone to be patient. “Let’s all wait for things to return to normal, and do our best where we are," he said.
