Argh, Weverse notifications SUCK! I just caught the last 3 minutes of Namjoon's live

Bah. The only one in that top five that might geniunely deserve to be there above Jungkook is Taylor's song... blech to the others

I am looking forward to this so much. A whole hour of just Jimin...

He's probably a production assistant - they get to meet everyone because they're doing all the running around & donkey work

I read the announcement, and it didn't sound like it was going to be a raffle - they said it will ' be available to ARMY members and album purchasers'. But why not just call it a concert, then?

He's a man of good taste!

If Hobi submitted the Hope version, I think there's a Concert or Live Recording category, and it'd qualify for that

I love how the graffiti was inspired by his tattoos

If they were actually about musical excellence, as they're supposed to be, RM, Hobi, and Suga would not only be nominated, but win.

Go shopping and get some delicious food, i guess. That sucks. Ngl, Bangkok is one city I wouldn't want to be stuck in with nothing to do... it's beautiful and interesting, but I found it kind of stressful when i was there. didn't feel safe

While it's hard to deny the nature of the song's lyrics, I feel like this was completely unnecessary: I read that poor JK got name-called on TikTok, too...

I'm so proud of him.

Bangtan in the wilds of Toronto. Wish I had time to go check it out!

No, I think if the comment is reported, it gets deleted from the comment stream during the live, but they don't pre-screen comments. It's mostly I-ARMY who do the reporting, as far as I can tell... which is probably why the creepy comments are now showing up in (according to what I read on Twitter) badly machine-translated Korean

The whole 'missing the members' part of the live turned into a cry-fest in the comments. Every time someone in the comments said "I miss ____ - hyung", JK would get a wistful expression and start talking about them... 😭 All in all, it was a very fun live, but there were some really out-of-bounds comments being made. Apparently it was in the Korean comments, too! People asking for his address and him to take off his shirt. He was slapping them down but really, geez.

JK actually said Yoongi was pouty about it - and imitated Yoongi's pouty voice complaining. It was pretty cute.

I'm buying from Weverse for the fansign and poster events. Plus I actually need a phone grip (which is the bonus item). Will find some other way to contribute to the charts, as I'm pretty sure Canadian purchases don't get tabulated into the Hot 100 counts

11 tracks? That makes his the biggest of the solo releases so far. RM, Hobi, and Yoongi each released 10-track albums, Tae's and Jimin'sf were 6 tracks, and so far Jin has only done The Astronaut

This is so cute.

You could use it as a punching bag or throw it across the room, though, every time that bloody announcement comes out

Oh my God, I laughed til I cried... check it out:

Do a deep dive on jazz lyrics of the 20s and you'll realize differently...they were talking about sex even back then, only more discreetly. Speaking of, has anyone checked out the 'clean' version of 3D? They blanked everything out EXCEPT for 'champagne confetti' and 'ABG'. 😅

I just tried looking up the origin of the phrase and no one seems to really know. But it's supposed to mean 'the facts of nature' or the 'the facts of life' in reference to sex. Cole Porter wrote a very fun jazz song using the reference. I guess it comes from the fact that everyone knows what birds do in spring- i.e. mate and have babies - while bees are busily making sure plants can have babies? It's definitely more of a sex fertility image than a sexy one.

I think, given the context, he was talking about the birds and the bees and the champagne confetti and so on. He probably does know everything he needs to know about that. 🤭
