The BTS Magic Shop function was a bit of a letdown for me. I had high hopes for an interactive and immersive experience, but it fell short. The graphics were not as impressive as I expected and the overall concept of the magic shop was confusing. It felt more like a promotional tool rather than a genuine interactive experience. I was expecting something more engaging and magical, but sadly it didn't deliver.

I found the BTS Magic Shop function to be incredibly underwhelming. The navigation was confusing, and the content was repetitive and lackluster. The "magic" elements were minimal and didn't add much to the overall experience. It felt like a half-hearted attempt to capitalize on the fandom's love for BTS rather than a well-thought-out and enjoyable function. I was extremely disappointed and wouldn't recommend it to anyone.
