Minute by minute updates Also, ladies, if we're going to discuss this I suggest we use the 'bts videos' private group chat rather than doing it out here in the open. There's no telling who reads this forum and we absolutely must not drag BTS or the members' names into this right now because they're in a really a vulnerable position right now.

Yeontan was the best K-pup star ever. I hope Tae got a chance to say goodbye.

I suppose it depends on what references you're drawing from. For me, 'princess' always has a slightly petulant, Marie Antoinette flavour. I'm sure Jin's cultural references for the term 'princess' are different again, though.

About the Melon awards: Even though they seem to be trying to lure ARMY back with token awards to JK, and a 'BTS retrospective', if you look at all the footage they're using, they've conspicuously cut or edited Yoongi out of it all. So eschew Melon, I would say. They can rot like the rest of SM. Also, apparently one of the Japanese fans called Jin princess at the high touch and he was super-pleased, so idk. Jin's behavior still reads more 'prince' than 'princess' to me, in that he seems to thrive on taking care of people rather than being taken care of.

The replies on that thread are hilarious. Apparently Jimin wrote a really heartfelt and touching letter to one of the soldiers being discharged and called him his 'son', even though the other soldier was actually older.

I get the impression that in SK, the soldiers do all the snow-shovelling needed at their bases. Which would not be a trivial task

Regsrding Winter Ahead: I absolutely live for music like this- Tae's and my tastes are kind of similar that way - so I'm glorying in it. Tae's voice is just like a deep, rich, plummy chocolate cake, while Park Hyo Shin's comes in like a sweet-salty, not too heavy, layer of salted caramel shortbread on top... the combination becomes as lush as any dessert when topped with the lavish jazz instrumentation... oh, I'm in love with this song, all right. The video? Eh, not so much. I couldn't help but feel while watching it that it's partly one of Tae's gentle jokes on ARMY. I wonder if he made it enigmatic on purpose so that he could have lots of fun reading all the ARMY theories about it. Of course he looks amazing in it, though.

According to what I've read, they were just as shocked and blind-sided by what the girls were saying. At this point those kids need deprogramming, not a contract.

Those ESSE photos of Yuzu in the bucket hat and sleeveless top make him look like everyone's college boyfriend. Just sayin'

I've been casually following the threads about the NJ presser yesterday... from what I can gather, by the end of it they'd completely contradicted themselves and actually aren't filing for termination after all... i think those girls don't know what end of them is up... clearly they have no clue about contract law at all. They're being used so badly

I'll be getting the book and 'pamphlet', which seems to be a photo book of sorts. Can't resist reading Yuzu's own writing! And Beomgyu crying kinda alarmed me... makes it seem like they really don't know how long Soobin will be gone

So far with the Jin is Happy game, I've gotten the Happy ending twice and had him tearfully tell me he was keeping his fourth finger empty for me once. Does this mean I'm better at dating than my perennially single status would imply?

Japan. He has an appearance booked on a talk show or something. He & Taka are goingbto do their version of Falling live

Also, for anyone who might be interested: Weverse's Black Friday sale is on now for the next week. Some deep discounts on, amoung other things, the photo folio books

Really? That is exciting! I have to admit, I basically don't bother checking the Canadian charts because they're largely irrelevant in the grand scheme of things, but this is a sign that Maple ARMY is doing the good work. Also, about the Dec 28 thing - it's a Twitter ARMY fan project. Lots of the ARMYs on Twitter were very upset that we couldn't get Hobi the MAMA bonsang like we did for the other 4, so they've picked a day when the odds are good that some diligent streaming can give our man his chart #1 before the year runs out. Lord only knows why that song, though

The chart longevity of Who is surprising me. I think it's a sign that the song has broken out into to general public, and not just ARMY listening

Pretty much! Although I can't help imagining what this clip would look like with trim yet muscley Special Forces Tae in it.... what can I say, I'm greedy

Someone check on @Whoopiewoopand make sure she's still breathing, Tae's her fave 😄

AND a free day at Lotte World.

I think they've been waiting a long time for a daesang

It's finally happened, the Japanese Nationals for women finally migrated to the GPF weekend LOL. Also, can't believe Grassl made it into the final. This year's men's GP was an utter mess

The Weverse auto translate absolutely slaughtered this - it translated "stunned" as "bouncy" and I just 🤣

Sharing a little bit of MAMA. Beomgyu & Huening Kai of TXT, Jay of Enhypen, and two members of Zerobaseone performing as a five piece rock band and doing a pretty darn good job.

My guess is Jin looks younger because he's got a load off his mind now that he's done his service. Hobi also looks younger.

This is an idea you've expressed a lot, but so far evidence has been to the contrary. It looks as though the guys are handling the situation with great aplomb. Funny thing about Hobi endorsing Audemars Piguet: about 3 days before Hobindid the live with their watch on his wrist, my brother, who also loves watches, was jokingly asking me to get him a Piguet for his birthday. 'Jokingly', because a Piguet cost about half what I paid for my house back in 2010. 🤯 basically, fantasy day dream stuff.
