During the live broadcast, all the members started discussing the creation process. It was mentioned during the live performance that all the members added a personal touch to the album, however, Jin was unable to contribute much. The members mentioned that since Jin was on his solo tour when they started working on the album, he wasn’t able to contribute much to the creative process. V mentioned that Jin’s health was one reason why he was unable to fully participate after the solo tour ended, while RM commented that if his tour had ended earlier, he could have been more involved. When the interview ended, Jin was seen answering with a straight face, saying, “I’m glad we put out great songs.” This part of the live stream caused a lot of anger and backlash against the rest of the BTS members.
