JM: For about 7-8 months, I had so many hair colors I've wanted to try. I tried too many colors so my hair coulnd't stand it and I had to dye it black. I am no longer the thick-haired Jimin you uesd to know

NJ: It's summer so I wanted to shave it off, but I couldn't of course. My hair is also really damaged, so I coulnd't bleach it as much. Normally, I bleach it about 8 times

They just came from rehearsing at Stad de France, and they were amazed by how big the venue was!

NJ: In Korea, it's about 6am.
JM: It's 5am. There's a 7 hour difference. I'm sorry if you got the alarm.
NJ: Please forgive us.

Namjoon said he's going to work out after the vlive, and Jimin said he's going to stick around in the room longer.

Joon said he hasn't gotten much work done on this tour. He's been only doing 2 things: exercise and watching the drama "Mr. Sunshine"

Jimin said he's been playing computer games with Jin and Hobi during breaks recently.
NJ: don't you guys all blame each other?
JM: we can't blame each other because we're all bad at it
NJ: don't the people who are bad at games blame each other the most

Back in the days, when some of the members had an argument, all 7 of them would get together and resolve it, but now they tell the involved members to go out and solve it on their own.

JM: But compared to before, we don't fight nearly as much.
NJ: If we have the energy to argue, that should go towards performing on stage.
JM: *agrees*

Namjoon said he's become really sensitive to small noises like the air conditioning, etc. and always needs earplugs to go to sleep. But Jimin said he's changed and that he likes the little sounds when he sleeps.
NJ: Wow, you're a man of the nature.

Namjoon said once, he's walked from Shinsa station to the Coex mall. He walks while switching in between listening to music and not listening. When he gets tired of the music blaring, he takes out the earbuds. In that moment, the sounds of the world suddenly come into his ears

and he enjoys that feeling!

NJ: We just turned on the live to talk about how we've been living!
JM: We turned it on without any thought. We turn it on to communicate with you guys, but once we're infront of the camera, we go "what should I talk about..?"
NJ: If you have that thought, just read the comments!

NJ: Jimin, what thoughts do you have these days?
JM: I live without any thoughts these days.

JM: Hyung, I saw you walking on the catwalk during WINGS and you kicked the monitor screen, and I was laughing so hard.
NJ: Did it fall?
JM: No.
NJ: Good. I thought I damaged property again.

Joon said he went to the Centre Pompidou earlier today. He said Tae & Hobi are more of shoppers. Joon himself is not a big fan of offline shopping because he prefers doing everything online.

Joon said the weather in Paris was very nice today and he had a glass of beer with the security guard hyung while looking out at the view 😊

They talked about how there's a "white night" in Paris because the sun doesn't set 🤣

Omygod Namjoon said there will be a unit song with Jimin but they weren't sure if it already has been revealed or not so they're trying to find out if they just spilled a major spoiler or not LOLL

JM: I have the songs on my phone. I could spoil them right now if I want to.
NJ: They were very trendy.
JM: Originally, this was my song, but it turned into a unit song with Jin hyung and Jungkook. We listened to it together while eating+

,and I really liked it because Jin hyung showed a side that we haven't really seen before."

Joon said Jin hyung sent a really lengthy text message asking Joon for help in writing one of the parts for "This Night". Joon said pass it over but the text happened to be sent on April 1st so Joon asked "hyung this isn't an April Fools joke right?" LOL

Namjoon said he watches TTU stage while waiting for the Tear performance, and he wonders how Jimin will sing the ending note for TTU. Sometimes he cuts it simple and sometimes he draws it out. He anticipates the ending together with Hoseok 😆

JM: Before, when I used to make a mistake, I used to be so despaired. But these days, although I do feel upset, I have the mindset "Please wait for me a bit more, I'll do better."

Namjoon keeps on praising the vocal line for their ability to sing live with stable vocals especially with all the choreography.

Jimin said Yoongi was the one who wanted to have a dance for the Seesaw stage. He wanted it first but he would complain about having dance lessons all the while practicing hard anyways 🥺

They were talking about Joon's pilates, and Joon said the pilates he does isn't pilates, but "rehabilitation" LOL

Jimin said he actually used to be not so flexible believe it or not, and he couldn't do the splits beyond 90 degrees. But stretching is such a huge part of dance, so Jimin worked on it really hard. He would go to sleep with his legs up against the wall, and he would wake up+

with the legs fallen, but he couldn't even move his legs. 🥺

Namjoon is dying to eat 짜장면 (jjajangmyun or black bean noodles) and Jimin wants to eat 회냉면 (cold buckwheat noodles with raw fish). Joon also wants to eat 비빔국수 (Spicy cold noodles) and 미나리 (water parsley)

They said they always eat so much instant ramen on tour. Nobody makes them eat it but they eat it themselves anyways.
JM: If you see a bag of ramen, you have to open it.

Namjoon's showing a video of Jimin studying English on the airplane while everybody else was sleeping. Joon took a video because it was so admirable. The flight was about 8 hours, and Jimin was studying nonstop.

Jimin was a newbie at studying on the plane so he didn't know about the reading light and was using the flashlight on his phone to study from a book. So Joon told him about the reading light 🥺

Jimin said he initially started studying English because he felt that Namjoon always works so hard for all of the members. He's been watching a 20-minute clip of Boss Baby to study English. He said now, he can hear the plot even when he turns off the subtitles!

JM: "The two words I remember are envision and imagine. They mean the same thing, so I would ask what the difference between the two words are."

Joon is talking about an interview they had when they were in the states for the BBMAs in 2017. It was an interview with 11 American TV broadcasting companies, but Joon found out that it's going to be live broadcasted 10 minutes before going in. He said there might have been+

a miscommunication because he had no idea it will be broadcasted live, so he was very stressed and going crazy, but once he went in he managed to do it. He thinks confronting situations like this helped him improve his English

THEY'RE DOING THE ASIAN SQUAT.
Joon said him and Tae can't do the squat because they have short Achilles tendon, but he's improved and he can do it now. Joon said he wanted to do the squat because it looked cool but Jimin said he just does it because it's comfortable🤣

JM: The conversations I've had with Moni hyung while working on Promise are so valuable. We would meet up to work on the song, but talk for hours about other things, such as the emotions people feel, etc.
NJ: Yes, we have good conversations.

Joon said that Jimin felt like Promise was really his story when he first started working on it, but he no longer felt like it was his story later on. Which was a good thing that Jimin no longer feels on his own, but they had to work hard to finish making the song.

NJ: There isn't much to art, it's just about receiving comfort from each other. I go to a lot of museums. For example, if I watch an interview of the artist talking about their background before seeing the art, you can imagine what they must have been going through at the time.

NJ: In a way, art is the remains of the artist. The artist is no longer there, but the residue is left behind for others to see.
JM: Because I have these talks with hyung, I tried to go to a museum. +

But for example, when I see a nude drawing, I'd think "why aren't they wearing clothes?" and just one-dimensional thoughts like that"

Jimin's museum story:

There were lots of people, and I was asking useless questions like "why is this painting hanging here?". Then I turned around, and something was shining so bright even though there was no light. It was an old man pushing an old woman on a wheelchair, +

I was so touched and amazed by the sight that I gripped my head on the spot. It was so beautiful."

Namjoon said he once cried staring at a painting with black and white and red, because he thought that the artist must have felt the same emotions that he was feeling at the moment. He hopes the music he makes can have a similar effect on people.

They said they always have to wrap up their conversation rapidly because they lose track of time talking about everything and said sorry for just talking between themselves in front of the camera 😁

Jimin: You might think it's gross, but I'm so exhausted after the concert that I sometimes fall asleep with my backpack and shoes on.
NJ: Jimin wears his Chelsea boots to sleep and even when he's being massaged. Be careful, you'll twist your ankles.

Jimin: This is why I can't live alone. I need someone to tell me to do things. I need to keep living with Hoseok hyung~~~

Jimin's talking about how to make Joon stop snoring in his sleep LOL. If you give him some kind of a shock but not strong enough to wake him up, he stops snoring for about 10 minutes and that's when he has to fall asleep 🤣

Oops it looks like Joon just spoiled a song they're going to sing at Muster but I missed which one because I was translating 😅

-END-

They talked about SO much during this vlive, from behind the scenes of producing This Night, Promise, learning English, appreciating art, etc. I tried my best, but I definitely missed chunks of what they said because it was going really fast. Sorry about that and+

hope you guys can see their thoughtful messages it in the reuploads with more exact translations :) Thanks for reading my thread💕
