Alright, I got a LOT of DMs about this. In Korea, age is counted differently bc Koreans count the time in the womb as a year. There are basically 3 ways to calculate Korean age but basically when you are born, you’re automatically 1 yr old. Then, everyone gets one yr added to + ImageImage their Korean age on New Year’s Day. When Yun was a candidate, one of his campaign promises was to abolish using the Korean age system and use the international age, where everyone is a day old at birth.

I just remember when Tae walked to the extended stage for soundcheck this day, he stood in the middle and pushed his hair back like he was in a shampoo commercial and it was the most beautiful thing ever. Head tilted back, voluminous hair flowing while dressed like this. At soundcheck, Hobi pushed up his sleeves, looking like a hot CEO. What a glorious day. Suit Sonyeondan at soundcheck.

Actress Yeom Jungah was on Game Caterers and was playing that game where you have to say the name of the famous person. She’s an ARMY so I’m sure she was thrilled to see BTS. What’s funny is that on the BTS episode, Jin wasn’t able to answer with her name
P.O: they hold up the pic and you have to say the name [of the person] right away
👩🏻 I know x2. BTS weren’t able to answer with my name
(shows Jin couldn’t answer)
PO: that person must be disappointed if their face came up but they weren’t able to get +

I feel like there is def going to be 90s hiphop inspired tracks in the next album. Not only did Yoongi say there will be more hiphop tracks, but Namjoon has been listening to Nas (yes I know he’s one of his faves and it doesn’t mean anything). Pdogg has been talking about it too.

GQ: has your changed opinion on “good music” affected your recent work?
PD: “I’m re-listening to the 90s era hiphop or R&B music that I used to like and be moved by when I was younger. Using the music that inspired my sensibilities in those days as + Image

I’m always amazed not by how *BAD* journalists get BTS (and ARMY) wrong - and they most certainly do - but by how they much they dehumanize BTS. The “Bangtan industrial complex?”Do you say that about Western stars? ARMY as “passive consumers?” Do you even know us? + By now we all have publications and writers we avoid and I personally gave you several chances, but no more. It’s pretty clear what you think about BTS and us, and it’s no longer worth our time and engagement to give you any thought. Perhaps HYBE should also rethink whatever +
