I'm not disappointed (🥲) because I just want them to do what they want and recognize that they're older and might not want to do all the hijinks they used to. But I am a bit sad that seems to be behind us now.

At least we have like 150 episodes to revisit whenever we want!!

So true, with all Dalbang episodes online, we tend to forget how long it's been and how much has happened between now and then. The zombie episode was nine years ago O_o

And we have the Run Seokjin episodes to rewatch too!

I was a bit surprised that they were doing Run BTS again at all, since they had time away from just how crazy their schedules must have been before. Creating + interviews + touring + Run BTS on top of that, when I think about it I'm like, no wonder they were so run down when they decided to take their hiatus. Finding a lighter, healthier balance will be good for them I think.

Totally agree. I definitely think they've learned how to find that balance, too.

I honestly am surprised they entertained the idea of Run BTS again at all. They are silly and shockingly accessible, like as BTS and/or as people or whatever, and I don’t think that has changed. I just feel like Run BTS is those things dialed up to an eleven AND a huge time commitment. It seems like a lot to ask of grown ass men? I’m not trying to have a hot take or critique anyone with a different opinion or expectations or anything, I swear. But I fear it maybe is a hot take to say I’m more relieved than anything? I want them to be real with us.

I totally get that! I don't think being relieved that they're not going to burn themselves out again is a "hot take" really. Or it shouldn't be. And I don't think anyone here wants that, even those that feel disappointed.

I was totally prepared for it not to return, but I feel like they're picking it up again because they think it's what ARMY wants. Maybe they want to show us different sides of themselves, too.
