The crashing of the Weverse Shop had not happened with the previous releases of BTS members' self-designed merch. Even the BTS Japan official shop crashed due to heavy access.

In addition to this, Jimin's purple hoodie and earrings had reportedly sold out within seconds of its release. However, some fans are claiming that the goods were sold out in just one second, while others said that they were out of stock even before they went on sale.
