"We're going into a hiatus now," said Suga, 29, in the Festa video, which was posted on the group's official YouTube channel. Group leader RM said while he enjoyed being in BTS, the group members now feel "exhausted" and he doesn't "know what kind of group we were any more".
"Whenever I write lyrics and songs, it's really important what kind of story and message I want to give out, but it was like that was gone now. I don't know what kind of story I should tell now...
"Right now, we've lost our direction, and I just want to take some time to think," the 27-year-old singer said.
Jimin, 26, admitted that the group has been going through a "rough patch" as it is trying to "find our identity, and that's an exhausting and long process". V assured the fans that the group was not splitting up and they would get back together "later, when we gather again as a group, that synergy will be like no other".
