lol. I was just reading hate comments on Twitter about how “Take 2” made no noise and signalled BTS’s fall. I admit, I did not think it would do this well but so glad to see a deserving song get #1

Also saw this. Just thought it was funny how the Fanyus react to Pop Base compared to Army. Every time there's a music vote, Army follows to vote then announces that it's time to unsubscribe again, lol. But still, it's super cool to see Yuzu get mentioned in a pop culture account. I wonder if Yuzu will ever do one of those pro-ams in the future. That Elle cover is And another one of those Korean beauty articles. The different cultural beauty standards are interesting. In the West, those are called under eye bags and people get surgery to remove them. In Korea and Japan, it's Aegyo-Sal and people get them added. I also always thought it was odd how ever minute detail of a person's appearance is judged in Korea, but no one seems to care about ears sticking out over there. I think Tae normally ranks higher on the beauty lists than Jin even in Korea and both Tae and Cha Eunwoo have big ears that stick out while over here, people are paying to pin them back. https://www.allkpop.com/article/2023/06/korean-plastic-surgeon-reveals-that-jin-and-chaeunwoo-are-the-most-requested-celebrity-faces-among-male-clients

2 more examples of BTS being the best ambassadors. I wonder how much all the members gets paid vs. how much additional revenue they bring to the company. I was wondering just last week whether Jin ramyun managed to pass Shin (which was long time #1). It's pretty obvious that the only reason Jin finally managed to get #1 in the Ramyun industry is because of "our" Jin. My favorite Korean food youtubers have recommended Jin ramyun but I could only find it on Amazon by the case so didn't pull the trigger on it until Seokjin became the face. I wish I could afford Valentino, lol. Suga looked so elegant in his fit. I hope Jin really does get Cartier.

I'm glad he likes it, but that caricature looks absolutely nothing like him. If the artist drew Tae's lips that big, then Jin, Jimin, and Joon's would be going off the page

Love the outfit other than the color. Hobi looks best in really vibrant colors. If the suit was in red it would be perfect. I voted but unfortunately it doesn't let you skip categories so I ended up picking people based on things like prettiest, most interesting hair, etc. They also spelled Jimin's name wrong. But it's good to see them recognized in all sorts of formats and locations. RollingStone gave some love to Jimin and Suga. There're no numbers next to the listings so I think this is just meant to be a group of albums they like rather than a ranking. https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-lists/best-albums-of-2023-so-far-1234766016/suga-1234766741/ "Face" is in the 28-36 section "D-Day" is in the 64-72 section Came across this post yesterday. I know that JK said that Jin had the widest vocal range of the members, but I didn't expect a 5 octave belting range . The highest belted notes I can remember are in Crystal Snow and the lowest I remember are in Dionysus - but I didn't know enough about music to really understand what that meant. As a reference, Mariah Carey and Whitney Houston has a 5 Octave range and the other BTS vocalists are 3+ but less than 4 octaves (which is still impressive). ETA: just came across a site that says Whitney's range was 3 octaves, acknowledging the sites that say 5 octaves but says that the other sites haven't provided any proof of the 5 octaves. Taylor Swift has a 3 octave range but sings much of it in falsetto and Justin Bieber and Oliva Rodrigo barely more than 2. It seems most popular singers are ~3 octaves.

I definitely enjoyed this more than "The Planet". I'm disappointed that there was no music video or subtitles for it but I guess I understand. Hopefully they'll add subtitles later.

I'm such a bad Army. I just listened to this. This is the smoothest I've heard Suga's singing voice ever be. It's so smoky and sultry. Love the video - totally suits the video game vibe and Halsey and Suga both look so hot! My only nitpick is that I wish it had a bit of a stronger ending. Random thought: it's weird to me that Suga never gets embroiled in dating rumors while JK is shipped with everyone, their mothers, and their brothers.

I'm 100% sure that I would get the absolute worst score. Most of the time I just let the music run without looking at the song name. I didn't even realize Boy in Luv was a title track or what song was which at the Yoongi concert.

Seoullite TV has tips on how to get the BTS stamps if you're not Korean at 3:50 followed by a rant on BTS not getting military exemption when so many less worthy did. Also, more info about the military nurse. Keep in mind that this guy has a tendency toward the dramatic though.

I. NEED. THIS!!!! I've suspected it's true ever since YG gave that statement when those photos got leaked. The way they worded it condemned the hacking of the photos but didn't deny that the photos were real. If it's true, I'm happy for them if they've found love. The JiKooker's must be ecstatic over the news. Has he officially gotten the role? Lol, all the Tannies will be competing for most military titles. I definitely think Hobi is more suited to be a training assistant just because I think he's more comfortable being stern with people. So far, I think Jin has assistant trainer, dorm leader, and Private 1st class. Can you imagine having Hobi as dorm leader? He'll make you scrub the floor with a toothbrush.

Going back to Toronto https://w2g.tv/?r=iwc913zynggjdnouxw

Lol, I genuinely hope it's true

Off topic, but saw this today and remembered that we were discussing it at the time. TW: discussion of death

I think it's on Disney Plus too. The only place I see anywhere close to my area is 45 minutes away at a Marcus Theaters. When I search on AMC, there's info about it but no show times so not sure what's going on there. I don't think BTS is very popular in Minnesota. I'm going to keep checking AMC in hopes that there'll be one closer to me

I took 3 years of Spanish in high school and retained a good amount but our Spanish program was terrible so that's not saying much. Been trying on and off with different programs to improve it but I keep losing motivation so I'm essentially just relearning the same thing over and over. I think Yuzu has turned us all into old Victorian ladies

ETA: Watch Party cancelled

When did a glimpse of collarbone become so hot I just placed my pre-order too and thought it was odd that the hardcover was less as well. Hopefully they print the paperback in multiple languages. I decided to try to get fluent in Spanish then try to learn either Korean or Japanese and was thinking that I'd be more engaged if I had a Spanish language book I could read

Sorry Joonie, not my favorite. I don't see an official music video so just the track

I keep wondering what the stats are for applying to the military before BTS enlisted vs. after

I've always loved the expression on his face as he has his back turned to the crowd. He looks so adorably giddy and awkward I'm so happy about our seats but it would have been unbelievable to be standing near Jimin during the concert. We ran into a few ARMY that got to go to both shows in Belmont. I just thought "how?!?" but now I realize that they probably got on Stubhub or something. I finally got my pictures from New York up on Facebook. Unfortunately, a lot of my videos were too big to post. https://www.facebook.com/tammyzea

I love this song! I didn't listen to it with the subs on the first time but I love it even more now. The video is a punch to the heart and Yoongi looks so beautiful. Mang used to be one of my least favorite but no mask Mang is so darn cute! Now he and RJ are competing for my favorite. Gah! that means I'll have to change my nail designs. Me neither. Fluffy mullet just doesn't work. I suspect that CK styled him this way. They gave Jennie an unflattering cut too.

Little late but join us for Run! https://w2g.tv/room/?room_id=6hbwgra327nvqlemxm

So hot! I like this one more than People Pt. 2. I hope Army shows the support they showed Jimin

The government couldn't even pull this tiny string for them after all they've done?
