ever since run, i've been having high expectations for the title track only to be disappointed over and over again.
i disliked all of the title tracks in 2016 (fire, bst) (save me was ok), the 2017 title tracks were just bad (not today, dna), spring day was a relief since i enjoy those types of songs, and the 2018 title tracks were disappointing (fake love, idol).
the only factors that are making me still a fan is the b sides and how much i appreciate/admire the members. that is really sad because the title tracks are the ones casual listeners will hear first. if they don't like it, they will not hear any other songs. my hope in 2019 is for bts to prove me wrong by releasing a title track that i can enjoy. but everyone has their preference and their title tracks are not my taste.
