Abstract:
This paper analyzes the concept of a hypothetical “Gonzo Xmas Party” as it pertains to the global phenomenon BTS (Bangtan Sonyeondan). Drawing on Hunter S. Thompson’s literary definition of “Gonzo” (subjective, chaotic, immersive journalism) and applying it to BTS’s entertainment strategies and lifestyle branding, this paper argues that BTS’s annual holiday content, fan interactions, and behind-the-scenes (BTS) culture embody a sanitized, corporate-friendly version of Gonzo ethos. By examining Run BTS! episodes, holiday V Lives, and fan-made compilations, this study demonstrates how controlled chaos and authentic vulnerability serve as key pillars of BTS’s long-term engagement strategy.
