Yet, after so long away, the performance sparked a debate about the group’s chemistry on stage.
On social media, netizens shared that something felt off during the performance, with some specifically noting that the chemistry between the members wasn’t as strong as it once was.
So now finally i have time. Smth was off during whole concert. Idk if is energy or chemistry but there were problem. Even mic drop performance couldnt give its powerful presence. And then new song choreos are just boring and not powerful enough++ #BTSLiveonNetflix

honest opinion: they thought solo era would help them as a group but it made them incompatible. the energy and dynamic isn’t the same, they’re not in sync, you can tell by the album and live stage how the style is not fitting and enjoyable for all of them, but to who chose it… pic.twitter.com/guweHXpTmo

Watching on Netflix and BTS members no longer have that chemistry. It’s time to separate. Just disband.

Yet, many hit back at these allegations, sharing articles praising BTS’s chemistry on stage but also their own thoughts of seeing the members back performing together and how nothing had changed, despite four years away from being all seven members.
The Guardian — Having lost none of their chemistry, this is a comeback of epic proportions but BTS have always known how to put on a show.

I am still wrecked 🔥
Seeing them back on stage, their chemistry, their undeniable talent, their unbelievable way of piercing through the screen and straight into our hearts… nothing has changed, while everything has. We're not the same, but nothing has changed between us pic.twitter.com/KJsXUSgw5f— Somanyinterests 🎆🎶 BTS ⟭⟬ ∞ 💜 (@Somanyinterest1) March 21, 2026
