In a video uploaded to YouTube's 'Bangtan TV' late on the afternoon of the 14th, the group BTS talked candidly about their worries over the past 9 years while sipping a glass of wine.
The members said that they did not have enough time to look back at each other because they were absorbed in group activities that had been running non-stop.
[RM/BTS: I am not able to mature due to my physical schedule.
It doesn't give me time to think.
Calm down, who I am, what kind of team BTS is, and why am I here…

He also announced that he would take a short break from group activities to recharge and have time for individual activities.
[Jungkook/BTS: Personally, now we each have time and spend a lot of good time…
There will come a day when I will grow up one step and come back to you all...

[RM/BTS: I think I have to remain as myself if I want to be BTS for a long time.
Because I'm not bulletproof.] The
members also revealed their plans to officially carry out their solo activities with non-regular albums.
On the 10th, BTS released the album 'Proof' to organize Chapter 1, and sold 2 million copies.
In a situation where they are enjoying their best time, they have declared a sudden cessation of group activities.
However, since it is not a group disbandment, they said that they would continue filming 'Run BTS', the BTS group's own content, while conducting individual activities.
