Silla had a plentiful supply of gold that its capital was named KΓ»msΓ΄ng ("city of gold"). Silla is known for the glittering gold crowns, belts, shoes, and jewelry that ornamented the bodies of kings & queens.

#λ°©νƒ„μ†Œλ…„λ‹¨ #μŠˆκ°€ #AGUSTD #AGUSTD2 @BTS_twt #Daechwita #BTSResearch Image
Here is an example of a pair of earrings from the Silla Kingdom.

In the Three Kingdoms period, royalty and the aristocracy acquired luxury goods not only for personal enjoyment but also as symbols of power & political authority.

An educational thread about β€œMicroaggressions: What are they? How can we respond?”
We hope this thread is an incentive for everyone to read more about the topics of microaggressions. As always, we encourage you all to do your own research and always seek further insights surrounding these discussions.
Some scholars argue that racism, sexism, homophobia, & other forms of discrimination are no longer as obvious as in the past. Instead, people may demonstrate their biases & prejudices in more subtle ways, otherwise known as 'microaggressions'.

"...the more impact one makes in the public eye, the more critics come out...to challenge that impact. However, regardless of what naysayers think, BTS have proven their importance on a 🌍 scale, & dismissing the Korean band will not change that." @BTS_twt

"Despite these accomplishments showing how BTS have pushed through western gatekeepers, the group still faces xenophobia and microaggressions outside of South Korea."

@bts_twt #BTSResearch
"On a macro-level, @bts_twt have shown their importance. They broke into the 🌍 music industry, repeated their success, & are sought after to speak about 🌍 issues. Refusing to acknowledge that does not make the band any less important, +"

β€œRevenues from @BTS_twt activities account for just half our total revenues...We will help them grow as iconic artists, such as Rolling Stones or Metallica, who make πŸ’΅ from performing just once every couple of years.” -Han Park, Big Hit’s Investment & Strategy Head. #BTSResearch Image
"Big Hit has been building a business model to maximize profits even without its artists’ activities...The indirect participation events made up almost half of Big Hit’s revenue in the 1st quarter of this year, up from 31% in 2018."

@BTS_twt #BTSResearch
[During Enlistment]

"Big Hit believes it can generate a steady stream of revenue from BTS in many ways: through solo & smaller group performances; indirect participation through online concerts, mobile games & video content; as well as merchandise sales."

"I don't think artists lose mkt. value because of their age. U2 isn't young anymore, but it's not lost its value, has is it? When @BTS_twt reaches their 30s, it will be possible to deliver age-appropriate msgs. & provide inspiration. Even when you're in your 50s [&] after that."
Since 2016, Big Hit Ent has been rapidly increasing.
