Here's a clip from Problematic Men where he talked about how the process for the commercial went
Get ready to get your minds blown. How many times does Namjoon rhyme with "Khawah"?
Answer: 13 times, one using EACH CONSONANT OF THE KOREAN ALPHABET.
Here are the consonants to look out for. The ieung is not used because it does not have a consonant sound.
Here is Namjoon's Khawah verse with an English translation. Here I've shown all the rhymes with the coffee brand "Khawah", and each rhyme uses a different consonant of the Korean alphabet, even when he is rhyming with English words or onomatopoeia. #RM#RMverse
You might remember Hobi's verse from Boy in Luv where he goes "ka-na-da-ra-ma-ba-sa ah hakuna matata", the first are the Korean consonants in order. Do you see them in Namjoon's rhyme scheme?
Some really interesting rhymes that have caught my eye: 1) him using the english word "sour" pronounced "sawa" to fullfill his rhyme scheme, then the very next word is the Korean word for fighting "싸워" (ssaweo), and it sounds divine to the ear. 2) 2 coffees is "kawa-i". GOD.
NAMJOON DID THIS IN ONE HOUR ON THE SPOT AND NO ONE IS TALKING ABOUT IT.
I need some air.
Lemme just add that the "kawaii" rhyme in this is actually 3 languages in one word:
카와이 (kawaii) is 'cute' in Japanese (かわいい). It has 'kawa' (or khawah), that's 'coffee' in Arabic (قهوة), and "ee" sound which is 2 (이) in Korean.
3 languages: قهوة이 = かわいい = 2 coffees

Thinking about how for the very first FESTA they prepared a Bangtan Magazine called Bang Talk on the fancafe and the cover has the first instance of "Do you know BTS?" 🥹 #2023BTSFESTA
Most days of the schedule included content on the fancafe as part of the Bang Talk magazine 🥹
📍 Colonna di San Zanobi
We start at the most famous location in Florence, the Cathedral Santa Maria del Fiore! The column next to the baptistery is where Namjoon snapped this photo!
📍 terrace of Move On record store/pub
Around the cathedral again, this spot is not easy to find but it's right next to the outdoor tables of this pub/store!
Walking with my two feet
I face you who can't be seen.
As always, I...
A few centimeters of tremor to greet you.
I wanna keep the bass down low
Already my mind is in weekend mode
I don't see no open cars, no open bars
It's not bad. I'm all alone on the road. +
The hearts of people floating like islands.
A night that probably will never come.
I walk down the horizon and roll again.
To that vanishing point we've set.
Let's ride a bike if you're sad.
Let the wind be under your feet.
Oh, let's ride a bike.
Freely open your arms. +
Me, me, me, me, me, me, me.
nana nana nana
Me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me.
nana nana nana
Let it roll sometimes.
Like a bicycle wheel.
I need to find something.
Like an afternoon snack.
I feel like I've been living for this little moment.
A private midday dream on two wheels+
Breaking down the masterpiece that is Trivia: Love by #RM. Namjoon doesn't just showcase masterful wordplay, but also striking visuals and valuable lessons in the art of loving. Here I split it in 3 parts: to feel love, to give love, to keep love. + #namjoon#RMverse@BTS_twt
"The Art of Loving" is actually the name of a book by social psychologist Erich Fromm. Namjoon recommended this book on the fancafe back in the Love Yourself era. I'll be using a few quotes from the book as references in this thread + #RM#방탄소년단알엠#김남준
The premise of Trivia: Love, and of the book, is that love is not easy, and truly experiencing it requires us to focus on learning how to give love, and not just how to receive love (or be loved). It is all about the act of loving. +
Today I'm reading this book that Namjoon recommended 💜 #RM@BTS_twt
So i read Babylon already the other day (the first short story) and i have a fear of heights.. i was pretty shocked to actually feel my fear while reading this story. It follows someone going up the tower of Babylon that is meant to reach the heavens. The writing is WOW
The second short story is Understand, and it's following a guy called Leon who had an accident and is recovering from brain damage. This is affecting me a lot because I have a friend called Leon who fell on his head in a climbing accident and is now in recovery 😔
