1. [+821, -268] Hasn’t BTS fulfilled their duty to their country? It’s been 22 years since I served but I think they deserve to be exempt~ they’ve brought more prestige to this country than winning #1 at the World Cup~~~
2. [+555, -300] It’s not like these guys were promoting with the Korean flag on their backs, they were ultimately working for their own personal gain and lucked out. Why does that deserve an exemption?
3. [+278, -72] If that’s the case, then Samsung and all their family descendants deserve army exemptions for what they’ve done for our country too ㅋㅋㅋㅋ stupid fangirls need to get a clue
4. [+336, -147] There are other men in their twenties who are giving up their jobs to enlist, why should BTS get an exemption?? They worked to make money and happened to get famous along the way, that now deserves an exemption? Then what about all the Korean companies who are bringing in foreign money? Do they deserve exemptions too?? Armies with busted brains, please wake up. You guys haven’t even served yourselves.
5. [+252, -203] They’ve done enough for the country.. I am for exemption!!!
6. [+43, -5] BTS will serve as a good role model for the youth if they serve…
7. [+34, -3] BTS is very amazing and cool but… I don’t think they deserve an exemption ㅜㅜ
8. [+32, -2] Whether they are granted an exemption or have to serve… I just hope that they do it all together as a group. If they split the enlistments up, it’ll take at least another 10 years before we can see them whole again. Just enlist together for two years and come back as a group. I can’t imagine a BTS with even one member missing.
9. [+32, -3] Just have BTS serve as a special unit on Dokdo and let the entire world know that Dokdo is ours
10. [+22, -4] What exactly did they do for this country? They released albums that made them enough money to buy nice homes and import cars and turn their CEO into a chaebol. What has that done for the country? What did they sacrifice for us?
11. [+27, -11] Hasn’t BTS done more for the country than gold medalist athletes?
– The difference is that those athletes are competing with South Korea in their name. Does BTS getting #1 on the Billboard say anything about South Korea on the chart? By just reading BTS, do you think people will be able to tell whether they’re Korean or Japanese or American?
