After sharing his concerns with Bang Si-hyuk, the founder and co-CEO of their agency Big Hit Entertainment, he received the suggestion to put his feelings into music, and thus the song Abyss was born. Jin also thanked RM for helping with chorus.

V also uses his stress to fuel his music

Jin isn’t the only one in BTS who confronted his stress by channelling it into music. At the press conference for their new album “Be” on November 20, the band was asked if they ever felt burnt out or lost. V said that he experienced burnout multiple times, but now he knows how to handle it. “In the past when I experienced burnout, I took it hard,” he said, “but now I write about the feeling in songs and when they’re done, I feel accomplished. Now song writing has become a way for me to overcome burnout.”

The track Blue & Grey included on “Be “came from this process. Its lyrics include, “someone come and save me, please” and “can you look at me? Cause I am blue and grey.”

Jimin talks it out with other members

In 2017, on the Mnet BTS Comeback show, Jimin explained that he deals with negative feelings by going outside and having fun with his friends, compared to in the past when he would only practice more. “After [hanging out] with friends, I can

Jimin once worried fans and bandmates alike when he was on Changmin’s Music Plaza radio show in 2015. He said that he didn’t know how to relieve his stress and that he intended to do nothing about it. We’re glad to hear that he’s since found his way.

RM works hard and plays hard

RM also values keeping a good balance between work and play. In a 2018 interview with Reuters, he said, “Even if you love your job, if you focus on it too much, you get worn out, and if you focus too much on your hobbies you feel empty inside. I think the balance is the key. … We try to get good sleep when we are tired. We exercise, we play games. … This is how we try to overcome stress.”

On that same episode of Music Plaza in 2015, RM revealed another way he relieves stress: by putting on some music and acting like he’s filming a music video to the song, releasing all his emotions through his moves. Sometimes he even raps along; one of his bandmates once had to quiet him down on a plane when he got carried away and started saying his raps out loud.

Jungkook finds small happinesses around him

In an old interview clip, Jungkook once said that his response to stress was to eat – especially convenience store food, which he would gorge on until his stomach felt ready to explode.

But Jungkook recently revisited this interview, saying that his way of dealing with stress now is completely different. Today, he does something he enjoys, like taking a shower or just lying on his bed to escape the pressure for at least a moment.

Suga and J-Hope sleep … a lot

On the aforementioned Music Plaza episode, Suga said that he sleeps a lot when he’s stressed out – making music then sleeping, rinse and repeat. He explained that if he’s too stressed out, he cannot control himself very well, so he makes sure to get some sleep. J-Hope is much the same, although he also likes to relieve stress by tidying his room and decorating it with his collection of figurines.
