BTS ARMY to debut with ‘Broke&Sad’ on Twitter, fan says ‘done with this fandom’

BTS ARMY's album titled ‘Broke&Sad’ is a fun jibe at one of BTS’ older albums ‘Dark&Wild’ and is about the plight of BTS fans who are too broke to buy merch from the group

Some fun singles talking about the plight of BTS fans who have to rush to buy merch from the group in fear of it being sold out are going viral on Twitter and rightfully so. Over the last few weeks, the BTS fandom has seen in true blood the cons of being slow in the fandom with limited-edition handmade BTS merch being sold out within seconds of its release. In order to cheer themselves as well as the many others who missed the opportunity to buy BTS merch online, a few fans of the group wrote an anthem dedicated to ARMYs. This song described the plight of the fandom who are more often than not, broke to buy any merch that the group sells.

As the first song was a hit, soon many ARMYs joined in and created more improvised singles based on the beats of pre-existing BTS songs, and thus came the debut album of BTS ARMY titled ‘Broke&Sad’, a fun jibe at one of BTS’ older albums ‘Dark&Wild’. BTS fans went so far as to create the album cover for this meme album, while also making a tracklist with sample songs, all inspired by BTS singles with relatable titles like ‘Grieve Myself’ inspired by BTS’ ‘Love Myself’, ‘Stay Sold’ inspired by BTS’ ‘Stay Gold’, ‘Broker’ inspired by BTS’ ‘Butter’, among many others.
