And stream “Fake Love,” they did.
Some fans showed impressive dedication:

And others were tormented as their bias lists were wrecked.

People were positively shook.
Especially when they discovered that BigHit Entertainment did not use any CGI in making the “Fake Love” music video.
BigHit:No CG was used in the making of this video.
ARMY:
ARMY:So the fire-
BigHit:Yes it was real.

Yes, the Snickers, too.
A lot of fans had a lot of thoughts about Jungkook’s abs:

And, of course, ARMYs noticed some connections to previous MVs.
Because everything means something in a BTS music video, and fans are already hard at work deciphering how “Fake Love” relates to past storylines.
So far we have connections to V’s and Jungkook’s dance duet from “DNA”:
" dont worry my love
all of this is not a coincidence
we are totally different baby
the two of us found fate. " – 2017" i wish love was perfect as love itself
i wish all my weaknesses could be hidden. " – 2018#FakeLoveFriday @BTS_twt (c) taehyungbaby pic.twitter.com/gYC07aPs4o— TKG (@TheTKGlobal) May 18, 2018

Bring on the fan theories!
Fans showed enthusiasm for the other tracks from “Love Yourself: Tear”
Because every song on this album is just as lit as “Fake Love.” This fan had some rather elegantly articulated thoughts on “The Truth Untold,” BTS’s second collaboration with Steve Aoki:
And ARMYs from around the world were thrilled that Bangtan masterfully pulled off a Latin vibe on “Airplane, Pt. 2.”

In fact, this whole album is extremely important. We should all take a page out of this ARMY’s book and treat it with the respect it deserves:
We all related to this meme
Suga actually keeping his cool in “Fake Love” vs. all of us pretending to keep our cool in the face of this life-changing, epic comeback.
Now that “Love Yourself: Tear” has dropped and BTS’s comeback is in full swing, we hope you’re ready for all the interviews, live performances, and general slayage to come!
