If you’ve ever doubted how much the ARMY fanbase loves BTS, look no further than the amazing fan project started just hours ago #ProjectBuy23!
It’s been a rough few days for BTS with increasing tensions between South Korea and Japan right when they begin the Asian leg of their world tour.
But instead of rehashing everything that’s been going on, I’m here to talk about the adorable project that the BTS ARMY started earlier today to send their boys some love.
If you haven’t noticed, “2! 3!” from BTS’ Wings album seemingly randomly started charting on iTunes in several countries. As of right now it’s sitting in the #10 spot on the U.S. Top Songs.
This isn’t just a random coincidence though, ARMY rallied together to start #ProjectBuy23. The point of the project isn’t necessarily to get it up on the chart, but to show the band some love and appreciation from fans from far away. If you don’t already love and appreciate this fandom, here’s another reason you should.

Like the (translated) lyrics say, we all just have to keep hoping for more good days.
It’s okay come on when I say one two three forget it
Erase all sad memories
Smile holding onto each other’s handsHoping for more good days
If you believe what I say then one two three
If you believe then one two three
We love this show of solidarity between BTS and their fans, as well as the constant love that they’re always showing for one another. We all know that the boys have been through tough times before and they’ll continue to work through the pain when they need to. Here’s hoping that this fan project can help brighten up the start of their tour in Asia.
If you want to help the fan project, you simply have to purchase the song “2! 3!” from BTS’ Wings album which costs just $1.29!

2! 3! was the first fan song @BTS_twt gave us, to comfort us after 2015-2016 events even though they were the ones sufferring. Now we buy it as a way to heal and comfort them and each other. Let's hope for a better day. I'm sure it will come sooner than you think. #ProjectBuy23 pic.twitter.com/oCJSIg4lXc
