What BTS fans think ‘Butter’ will be like

After Big Hit Music released the promotion schedule for “Butter,” BTS fans shared their theories about what they think the song’s concept will be.

“I’m so pumped! I love having a schedule like this, I feel like it’ll be so much fun to look forward to these things all month. I’m dying to know what the concept will be like visually, all of the butter graphics are so cute and I just don’t know what to expect at all,” a fan wrote on Reddit.

“Is anyone else getting major pop art vibes from this? The bright solid colours, the art style, the font?? It’s very comic book and if the styling / MV is anything like it I’ll be super pumped…,” One fan speculated on Reddit. “As for the song itself… I’m expecting it to be somewhere between BWL and IDOL – fun and peppy but with a hard beat.”
