K-Pop idol group BTS recently released their first-ever official book, Beyond The Story: 10-Year Record of BTS, worldwide. This book, published to celebrate the group’s 10th anniversary, is packed with stories beyond what fans already know about BTS, including unreleased photos, videos, and more.

As fans began receiving their books, snippets of different episodes and stories surfaced online. One online community post garnered much attention as J-Hope revealed an incident that remained a huge shock to him.

J-Hope stated:

Back when we promoted with <Danger> it was really hard for us. When we released the album, DARK&WILD and came back with ‘Danger,’ we had done a pre-recording about 20 times for a music broadcast program, but we also had to go on another show because they said we were one of the nominees for first place. It was something that we had to attend so we went on stage even through all the chaos. But after getting on stage, we realized that we weren’t a nominee for first place that day. This came to us as a huge shock.

The shock that J-Hope experienced was not solely because they weren’t a runner-up for first place. V cautiously explained the incident in more detail.

Having another team as a nominee for first place is fine. We just have to work harder. But at the broadcast, we always greeted our seniors and juniors regardless, but that day there were people that ignored our greeting. There were those that scoffed that we weren’t runner-ups for first place too.

This event caused a huge psychological shock to the group. V continued talking.

After the broadcast, we all got into one car. Some members were crying, some were angry, and some not saying a word at all. There was a sense of sadness that was just too much to express in words.

V explained the impact this incident had on the group.

This is when we thought, ‘Let’s really make it big. So that no one can ignore us. Thinking back on it now, I sometimes think at least we set our minds straight at that time. Haha. Because we were able to set out minds straight, we were able to give it our all and come together with one heart and one mind to become a really amazing group.’

Netizens that saw the post were shocked at the treatment they received during the music broadcast.

  • “They must have been so frustrated. I’m mad just reading about it.”
  • “Why did people ignore their greetings? Isn’t that the most basic thing?”
  • “The music broadcast system is really trash. It must have been even worse back then.”
  • “Pre-recording 20 times? Dang.”
  • “When I think about the ‘The Most Beautiful Moment In Life’ era when people said it was rigged that they were first place, I can’t fathom how hard It was for BTS and their fans. I’m thankful that they endured and continued to where they are today. I’m especially thankful to the fans. Although the members worked hard, it was the fans that continued to work hard and bring the group to the top.”
  • “I wonder why people scoffed at them? At most, it’s three groups for nominees for first place, so aren’t all in the same position?”
  • “When I listen to stories, it seems like this group has gone through so much shit. I’m so happy and proud of how successful they’ve become despite all this.”
