Wasn't it only last week, someone was joking that the way we fans would find out if Yuzu got married was when Brian casually mentions coaching his kids sometime ten years from now? At least we got an official announcement 😅

I'm sure Ice-chan had to give her approval 😉🤣

HOLY SMOKE YUZU'S GETTING (GOT?) MARRIED!!!!! Congratulations, Yuzu to you and your spouse!!! And also, HOW did he keep it secret?!! When every tabloid in Japan would kill for such a scoop, how did he keep this under wraps? Talk about ninja skills.... Well done! I am so pleased for him, that he's found this particular kind of happiness in life. It doesn't come to everybody and those who find it are very lucky indeed.

OMG!!! JK! @amylance1215did you survive that! Are you alive? Aw, now they're showing an ot7 VCR 😭😭😭😭 Also, setlist is completely re-arranged from the first part of the tour. Yoongi on electric guitar, wow...

From my perspective, they never were that specific anyway. There was outside speculation as to their plans but they themselves kept it vague. So if the plans have changed or not, how can we even tell?

It seems like Koreans go to the hospital for a lot of stuff we'd go to the doctor's office for. Cultural difference? Or translation issue? I wonder which it is

One thing I've noticed is that we all seem to reading/watching different source material for our Bangtan news, and depending on where we get our info from, we're either chill and relaxed, or anxious and depressed, about Bangtan's future. I can't emphasize this enough: please only believe the info from official sources, which are BigHit, HYBE, and what the guys themselves say. Everything else runs the risk of being inaccurate. Also: read slowly, and/or re-watch if you have questions after watching the first time. Try to read for maximum comprehension. Especially when reading things online, it's easy for your eyes to skip ovr words or sentences and distort the meaning as a result. I started doing this about a year into my Yuzu fandom because a lot of the fan translations of his words and interviews used needlessly dramatic interpretations of his words and it left me in a tizzy. It was only when I went back to primary, official sources that I was able to calm down

On that note: I bought the 3-day, HD Multiview pass for the concerts this weekend... a.k.a. the shareable ticket. @Faithyu's already claimed her spots for the Aug5 and Aug 6 livestreams, but there's the replays next weekend and the Aug 4 concert still available. Two devices can login per livestream, which means two of us (if we each login one device). All you need is the login info and (maybe) a VPN set to Canada. Is anyone else interested? I'm asking to split the cost and broke it down to the cost per view per device - $12.78 USD, so you'd just pay for what you use, rather than splitting the whole ticket. Let me know in DMs!

Best possible reason tbh.

But why? They haven't outright lied to us, just been vague and, at times, caught unawares by circumstance. I think the underlying problem is that they don't actually have all this planned out to a T. I mean, clearly Jin and Hobi do, but JK, for example, has said that he follows his gut, so unless someone else tells him to do things in a certain way, he probably won't. If they themselves don't really know how things are going to go, it's a bit much to expect them to give the fans a detailed schedule

This article seems a bit inaccurate. For example, it says that the standard enlistment period is 21 months, but that's no longer true. What is true is that their comeback date is obviously a moving target. Apart from the fact that only two of them have enlisted yet, it's up to the military to decide when they get released from service. BigHit doesn't have control over that, the guys don't have control over that. I don't know what RM is up to that's keeping him out when I'd expected him to enlist by now but clearly they're no longer on the original plan, whatever it was. As annoying and frustrating as it is to have no certainty around comebacks, we just have to f*****g wait, that's all. The only fact we know for sure is that Yoongi is obligated to enlist by Dec 31 of this year because of his age. Beyond that the rest of them could all choose to pursue solo stuff for another 2-3 years and there's nothing any of us can do. I don't think they'll do that. But it's a situation where gnawing over it doesn't help. We fans can only wstch it unfold and support what they make in the meantime.

Their current contract is valid until 2025.

Gotta agree about New Jeans. I have yet to be able listen to anyone of their songs all the way through. I like that HYBE is venturing into girl groups but the teeny-bop sound is not my thing. Would love to see HYBE create a girl group made up of adult women with big voices who can all belt, though... would be a powerhouse on global charts for sure. That being said, even if this producer is a control freak, we're talking about Tae here. If he doesn't agree with it, he ain't gonna do it, and he's the one with the power in this equation, not some producer no one ever heard of before. If Tae chose her to work with, he must have had a good reason. So I'm looking forward to the album with no reservations. I only ask that we get to hear his full lower vocal range. 🥰

He's the literal definition of an adorable dork for this... I love it. Good for ANA too!

🥹 Edit: @ralucutzagybeat me to it!

OMG! Why is this so cute and hilarious? It's utterly adorable.

Has this been posted yet? Great idea!

If I'm not mistaken, the Lolla performance will be a free livestream, too, which most likely means crashy, laggy, potato-quality video. Might be better to wait

Why we love them so much, part 457 (at least!): https://twitter.com/SaraBangtan07/status/1686312008239476736?t=S3u8iRb2R0jRVkx-RcvVkg&s=19

Jungwon looks dreadfully thin there... Edited to add: Tae was just live! - for all of 3 minutes! But for once I caught it and had a chance to say I loved his jazz MV

The comments disappear once they've been reported - I think Weverse does it automatically

I can't watch - at my mom's and her internet is too slow

The interview is so cute! Two of JK's hoobaes. And Yeonjun looks so frickin' GOOD with pink hair! I love that they highlighted so many fanboys! From what I've seen, they're always like this. It's beyond reason!

So true!

I think the second one is from Jimin's Like Crazy promos - it's when Hobi went to see him. Also those photos of Tae and JK are causing a kerfuffle on Twitter b/c Inkigayo forbids fan filming/photography and have apparently banned entire fandoms from the show for sharing and retweeting stuff... so be careful with what you share.
