“Revenues from @BTS_twt activities account for just half our total revenues...We will help them grow as iconic artists, such as Rolling Stones or Metallica, who make 💵 from performing just once every couple of years.” -Han Park, Big Hit’s Investment & Strategy Head. #BTSResearch Image "Big Hit has been building a business model to maximize profits even without its artists’ activities...The indirect participation events made up almost half of Big Hit’s revenue in the 1st quarter of this year, up from 31% in 2018."

"Every 🎶 has 2 sides: strategy & honesty don’t they? @BTS_twt is already a 🌍 superstar. I don’t think they [were] thinking ‘this single is going to be a big hit if we release it in Eng.’ That’s a shallow trick. I don’t think that is what happened.."+ @toojazzy25, Music Critic "In my opinion…Well, this is just my interpretation, I think the 🌍 fandom of BTS who supported the group from the start surely contributed to making the group a 🌍 superstar. The group has a particularly strong fanbase in North America." - @toojazzy25, Music Critic
