Everybody clap it up for all the mods on aoty, they got rid of all of the bots in the bts reviews and they do so much to make this platform better.

Thank you to Rob especially for making the best music rating app and one of the best communities on the internet. We appreciate you

After multiple years of hiatus, BTS are finally back with their new album “ARIRANG,” with the focus track being “SWIM.” While it’s a catchy song with its signature BTS quirks, it only holds up for a certain period of time before it becomes a bore to listen to.

EDIT (60 - 70): It works better within the album.

this does NOT deserve to have the same score as the beautiful stunning gorgeous amazing BANGARANGA BY DARA

edit: this review actually brought it down to a 56 YIPPEE

could be longer, but it's overhated & a lil catchy... however it still feels underdeveloped
