And affordable! Only $90... but Jellycat things always sell out even without Tae's help. People collect them

Look like our Tae is not in LA yet. Stil in Paris. Lol the bag is so cute !

This sounds like so much fun. So Jin. I was pleased that there weren't mobs for the departure of Jimin and JK and Yoongi - it wasn't even covered by all the media stations leading me to believe that the departure wasn't announced before hand. Tae pointing out that ARMY can be dangerous would not have been enough for the idiots who swarm the airport to keep away for THREE members. HYBE/BigHit is managing the departures better. I hope that Tae does a post saying he's in LA safely, too. He should be there by now.

After he posted this, my whole timeline on X was full of "see? The guys will tell us themselves" posts re: there being no "fans" at the airport to swarm them for photos. People are really gettingbfed up with the airport crowding I feel for CARATs... this is going to go on for years and years

Good to hear.

At 3:15 am KST. I'll be missing that. Then he'll fly to LA. i hope they get at least a few days together with no cameras. But, yes- we'll get something content wise. I wonder if Pdogg is there- he's their #1 producer. SloRabbit, too but he's busy with TXT and others. and Jimin was NOT holding JK's hand- they just sort of hand-bumped. Like a hand shake. have t been on line today but expect a Tae arrival YouTube. I think they will be north of downtown LA. Malibu, maybe. There are studios there. And estates large enough to accommodate the guys. i have to admit that I had some fear or doubts, especially with all the solo success, that they would back out of a full reunion, but I now believe that this is truly what they have all wanted for years. Their next chapter is going to be transformational to K music-

Hobi's Lolla Berlin set will be livestreamed free on YouTube, Weverse, and some German platforms: https://weverse.io/bts/notice/28354

Yuzu responded to CLAMP's Tanabata wish.

The fanartist thinks her Haru-chan looks like a kitty. He really does.
