Map of the Soul: Persona
is the 6th mini album by BTS. It was released on April 12, 2019 with "작은 것들을 위한 시" (Boy with Love) serving as the album's title track.
It debuted at #1 on Billboard 200, becoming BTS's third #1 on that chart.
As of 2021, the album has sold more than three million copies, almost four million.
In his album behind v-live he also said that the lyrics are very important since this album is a letter, a serenade to ARMY.
5. HOME
BTS´s home is ARMY. From the boy that wasn´t welcomed in „Make it right“, he is going back home in this song. The order of the songs are always chosen on purpose that´s why we should listen to BTS´s albums from top to bottom. doolsetbangtan.wordpress.com/2019/04/13/hom…

👨 the fan-disciples calling for their idol, typical for kpop concerts. Not a chill evening event more like a global phenomenon of mass excitement.

What you can do if you get harassed by victimizers or antis-
a thread
Since bullying and harassment of ARMY acc by victimizers have increased a lot, I thought I'll share with you what strategies to protect myself and get rid of them have worked best for me so far.
As a lot of you know, I have a lot of experience 😅
1. Prevention
There were cases where ARMY's got even d0xxed or their acc got hacked (not accusing anyone for legal reasons). How to protect yourself?
• use 2-factor authentifacion
• don't use or mention your full legal name
• don't mention your workplace ⬇️

The metrics for the single charts are
streams > radio airplay > sales
Streams are getting counted as sales like following:
250 paid streams = 1 song sale
350 free streams = 1 song sale
500 programmed streams (online radio stations like Pandora) = 1 song sale
+++
Last year Willy changed their rules to make sales weigh even less and make it harder for us to get the number of sales we need to make up for lack of airplay.
Previously 4 purchases of one version per customer were allowed before it was considered a bulk, but now it's just one
Charts work differently in different countries and local charts have always priority over global charts. It's important to be informed how you can support BTS in your area the best and your fanbases know the charts well.
2. Prepare your streaming platforms
Paid acc are always better than free acc. Some platforms offer free trials such as Apple Music, YouTube and Spotify. Diversifying streaming is important but you don't need paid acc for every app.
Check which apps do count for your charts.
I didn't expect "we are bulletproof" as hint🤔
Also they asked us to stay with them forever
Guys, please calm down😅
"We are bulletproof" has nothing to do with their enl*stment!
It's about their songs, there are 3 of them with this title and I will go through them later with you!
Don't worry 💜
Sea/ocean
BTS talking a lot about the ocean/sea at the LV concerts. They also have previously posted a lot of pictures of oceans at their insta.
The ocean and the desert have a lot of meaning to BTS & ARMY.
Desert stands for hardships and the ocean represents us being together.
New era
They started hinting for a new era since the PTD music video.
It is believed that BTS' first era is called "Youth" and includes everything they released prior to BE.
BE is to be seen seperately imo since it's a response to the pandemic.
