On April 19, 2023, BTS' Kim Tae-hyung came live on the South Korean social media app, Weverse, where he shared that he was returning home after working out at the company. He further stated that he was stuck in traffic and decided to come live and talk to his fans.

During the live broadcast, Kim Tae-hyung talked about a number of things, but what bothered him the most was the range of questions he kept getting during the live. Questions and comments like "Yoongi marry me," "take a selfie," "have you heard of Mongolia?," "can you come to Europe?" and others, popped up frequently during the live, and the idol responded by saying that he is undoubtedly aware of all these places and expects more fun and better questions from fans.

The idol showcased his dissatisfaction with how some questions are now getting too cliche and asked ARMYs to upgrade their questions since its been already ten years since the group's debut.

Unsurprisingly, fans took to social media to express their concerns about the repetitive and boring questions, asking ARMYs to be more creative.


"It's boring and monotonous": ARMYs agree with Kim Tae-hyung, note that some fans take it too far and act like a child on Weverse

When Kim Tae-hyung finally opened up about the kind of comments fans were leaving on his live, including "wish me a happy birthday" and "wave at me," many ARMYs agreed to what the idol intended to say. According to them, questions by fellow fans have become monotonous and boring.

In fact, some fans believe that Twitter ARMYs should take over Weverse and ask more mature questions. One fan even thought of asking philoshophical questions to the idol and requested fans to do the same in the comment section when the idol does his next live on Weverse.

ARMYs believe that Kim Tae-hyung is now exhausted from the same questions that are asked to him, and they believe it's time to have some real conversations whenever he or the other members of BTS go live, by asking quality questions. Take a look at how fans are reacting to V's comments about fans' uninspired questions:

Kim Tae-hyung also stated during the Weverse live show that if he sees any funny questions or lines, he will surely read every single one of them, but before that, fans need to start thinking in a new way and present some upgraded questions. He said:

"It's been 10 years since our debut and we simply haven't changed. We need to start thinking of new, upgraded questions, you know, wait, when did i say i won't read comments! If i saw some funny ones, i assure you, i'd read every single one"

The idol also called out one of the users who asked V to wish him a happy birthday in one comment and changed the comment to "I had a birthday two days ago, you didn't wish me." The idol stated that he is not dense and remembered the user's username and asked if the person had two birthdays. In the end, he asked fans to ask more mature, fun, and thoughtful questions.

The idol also stated that he's been listening to Daniel Caesar's new album and is currently obsessed with it.
