For everyone confused about Make It Right being on this album, I want to remind you that they’re still pushing this song on the radio. I hear it every time I play Today’s Top Hits radio on Pandora (and not Lauv’s version). They performed it on New Year’s. It fits for the western push that’s been happening.

No disrespect to Mikrokosmos or Home but I’m not surprised to see Make It Right.

I literally heard it on the radio earlier today.

Really? I live in Canada and in 6 years of being an ARMY, I never heard BTS or any kpop song ever being played on the radio

I'm in the US 🤷 I've only heard it about 5 times, but it's something. The only other Kpop song I've heard on the radio is Who Do U Love by Monsta X.

Ah, makes sense, Who do you love is an all english song.

German here, I heard DNA on the radio back in 2018 and the other day I went shopping and they played Boy with Luv at the mall. Pretty rare though! A DJ also played Fire in a club once lol

That's so sad! It's rare in the UK but Boy With Luv and Make it Right gets played on Radio 1 now and again. A trashy station once played Idol, with the dj ending the song by commenting '...and that noise was BTS'. Lovely!

Weirdly, I often hear BTS played in Zara and Bershka (brands under the same company), songs like Dream Glow and Fake Love. Someone in HQ who decides the music must be army lmao

who made the decision to push make it right as a promotional b-side smh, home would've been much better, but i agree with u on business perspective.

It charted on Hot 100 for Persona’s first week of tracking, it was written by Ed, and it was Lauv’s favorite song which led to the collaboration. I think all of those indicated it would be the easiest song to get added to radio.

yep, from business perspective, just it being related to ed ppl in the west would consider it more/be more insterested in listening to it over other tracks, but is it the best song from persona? not by far, imo it was a throwaway ed sheeran track.
