However, all this excitement turned into a debate after a Reddit post claimed to reveal potential collaborations.

According to the post, HYBE had been trying to secure features from Megan Thee Stallion, Halsey, Swae Lee, Laufey, NIKI, and Sabrina Carpenter as of last November.

The alleged leak has divided fans. While some are excited by the prospect of international collaborations, many express frustration at the idea, hoping the information isn’t true.

Not even kidding when I say the idea of collabs on Arirang irritates me so bad. You guys need to stop saying this shit https://t.co/DAotApWzkt

ARMYs argue that the album should focus on BTS themselves after a four-year wait. After such a long wait, many want ARIRANG to feel like a pure BTS album, rather than a collection of features.
