BSS Upcoming Album’s Theme Coincides With Recent South Korean Struggle, Leading To Unexpected Disclaimer
BSS recently dropped a video for “Teleparty.” The theme was about taking back one’s youth, with the video showing BSS as politicians leading the charge.
Crowds held up banners in support of their “party.”
Jeans represented the slogan “youth is now,” which forms an acrostic for “jeans” in Korean.
“Voters” gathered for the big rally hosted by BSS.
While the theme had already been planned since earlier in 2024, it seemed to have some parallels with recent politcal strife in South Korea with the president being impeached. Protests went on in December to call for the president’s impeachment.
This resulted in BSS’s video including an unexpected disclaimer! They reiterated that the video had been planned in the first half of 2024, and was unrelated to any events.
The coincidence did not fly over fans’ heads.
this is so funny because it immediately opens with a political type rally and dk saying "is your youth hard" after weeks of protest by sk youth https://t.co/8BGEWCCygg
