We have noticed that some newer ARMYs may ask themselves where do the people on my timeline get these "notes" from or what are "The Notes"? or "Where do I find them?"
These "notes" are known also as the "HYYH notes." These HYYH notes provide a lot of the narrative for the BU, tying together scenes from music videos and providing additional details to flesh out the story." - @writer_court
"They reveal only bits & pieces of the story, as each note is fashioned as a sort of “diary entry” from one of the 7 characters. We only get that character’s perspective in each note, & each note includes a date." - @writer_court
"HYYH notes appeared in the LYS album trilogy as small booklets, on BH twitter account prior to the 3 LYS comebacks, & again on a separate official account titled Smeraldo Books (prior to the release of the BU webtoon)."- @writer_court
"A HYYH: The Notes 1 book was released, which contains some of the same information from the booklet notes. When Map of the Soul released, more booklets were included with the albums." -@writer_court
Although BH has released a compilation of some of these notes in an official book, there are still some notes that are yet to be published in another book. K-ARMYs & other I-ARMYs have provided us with translations of the recent ones.
You can purchase the official book, 'BTS 花樣年華 THE MOST BEAUTIFUL MOMENT IN LIFE NOTES 1' from BTS official Weverse shop, on Amazon or any other K-Pop related merchandise store!
All the best to you all analyzing the BU in research or if you are an ARMY theorist!💜
An educational thread about “Microaggressions: 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 bit.ly/33ZUmEW
"Despite these accomplishments showing how BTS have pushed through western gatekeepers, the group still faces xenophobia and microaggressions outside of South Korea."
"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, +"
“Revenues 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 💵 from performing just once every couple of years.” -Han Park, Big Hit’s Investment & Strategy Head. #BTSResearch
"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."
"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."
"Zanybros was founded in 2001, by director Hong Wonki and videographer Kim Junhong. This company is now one of the most distinguished MV production companies in Korea."
"They have collaborated with a plethora of artists including BTS, GG, TVXQ & etc. for video production & attained international fame with their quality creations. So far, the pair has filmed nearly 1,500 videos."
