A short radio audio from CBC https://www.cbc.ca/listen/live-radio/1-14-day-6/clip/16157489-bts-sooooo-back.-but-lot-changed-since-left

This is the first I have seen that Jimin was concerned in this way about Namjoon- though I can believe he'd have known that there was stress. But I think the stresses were internal for him, not some outside "jerks". https://indianexpress.com/article/entertainment/korean/bts-jimin-said-he-felt-suffocated-listening-to-rms-track-knew-something-was-wrong-i-wonder-what-kind-of-jerks-hes-met-10122975/

First look at the LV prices I thought the sunglasses were $60 - not $605. Silly me. I have to say, Tae wearing Celine is great but it's like LV uses Hobi as their model of what they should sell. Everything is perfect on him, and perfect together. I checked the Berlin forecast and it's supposed to stop raining soon - hours before Hobi is on. I don't know if they will just push back the times for all the acts or start with whoever is supposed to be on stage when the rain stops. Since it's been raining for hours, they must have to cancel the first few hours of acts. Anybody know?

With appropriate security - Jin doing crowd control, respectfully. - https://bsky.app/profile/dailyseokjin.bsky.social/post/3ltspeh43ec2x

That was pretty short... but he sure can eat a lot when he wants to.

For free? Why does it say it's for sale on their Weverse shop? Oh, you mean Hobi. It's at 3:15 am. I could set my alarm and see if that works.... Thanks

Where should I set my VPN? What country? And spending time on twitter - some Jin, Yoongi showing that he's a good sport(in a cow costume, he still is Mr Cool) and such a cute interaction with Jimin, makes me happy that the four in California are having time together. Someone on Twitter had tockets for Berlin - both shows...and I actualluy considered it for the second it took for me to recognize I cannot fly through space and time.(or leave Goguma-) The cow swagger gets me -

I can't even believe that I'm SO tempted to buy the streaming ticket for tomorrow show, even with seeing the near exact setlist three times already. Surprised a little bit that Hobi's stuff in Berlin won't be livestreamed, though it is at 3:15 the morning here....

Waiting to see Tae flying to LA. Oddly, the only YouTube content about airport departures are only "shorts", not a media outlet and appear to be from years ago.... I guess there are multiple repprts that he is flying directly to LA from Paris so no way of knowing if that's the case or if he's gone to Berlin to support Hobi. What is the issue with Bang and stock manipulation? Does anyone other than me think this is based on reports from mhj and her lot just trying to cause trouble?

Roman does an amazing job. Such an ARMY (and I forgot about the birthday, too). And doing it on ice has got to be a little tricky. On land, he's seriously great. Jin: https://bsky.app/profile/dailyseokjin.bsky.social/post/3ltksa3z46k2a

He posted 20 pictures of ARMY!

Enjoying his life as a fashion icon. Wonder when he'll go to LA. I know they all respect each other's solo promotional stuff, but if I'm the four guys in LA already, I'd be wondering that, too. I keep thinking there will be a Live, as RM said after his abbreviated message when his mic died (because the god of destruction dropped his phone in water...he seemed to imply that he was waiting for the rest of the members (and that can only be Tae at this point...)

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.

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-

I had forgotten that lollapalooza is this weekend. Hope you can fly to LA right after that and they'll all be together in the same place at the same time. Looking forward to at least one chaotic live session and it'll be interesting to hear what they're actually doing there. Maybe they'll even be able to catch a Jin show.

Maybe Tae will fly to LA from Paris. I expect he will. And doesn't Hobi have some time before he needs to be in Germany? I know he likes to rehearse a lot, but he must have some time to go to LA. poor Namjoon. Still breaking things. I love that he's still himself. And glad the other guys will be there soon. He did say he'd try another live with "members" so we can look forward to that- Tae. How can someone be so high up as an influencer when he just got out of the military? He is a god.

Maybe he'll get some good Namjooning in. I wonder why the other guys didn't come at the same time. I'd be a little miffed if I was him too, and wonder why he left even knowing they were not going to be coming. If you wanted to spend some more time resting in Korea, I wonder why he didn't. Perhaps there is business that needs taking care of in LA. But he's not the business end, so it seems strange. I'm gonna keep an eye on the airport cams to see if the guys follow him today. And Tae can do with a scarf what no other man can do. He really does like a scarf..

He'll be okay - he's got security. But he wasn't expecting to go alone- read the thread. I hope the other guys go soon, very soon. And the Blinks went banana over Hobi. Phones out everywherel And Tae is everywhere, looking better than he needs to... so here's some Jin, for balance -

You know he's trying to kill us, right? So much content from Tae today. Tae overload. (Can't believe Hobi went so unprotected to the Blackpink concert - there had to have been other protection nearby just for security...). And, yes, RM off to LA. I suspect Jimin, JK and Yoongi and maybe Hobi will go, then, together, soon. I know Hobi has to go to Germany but will probably go to the states first. And Jin won't really have free time when he's touring in the US, but if he has to go to BTS camp. I wonder ho they'll arrange that. I still thnk they should go to New Zealand at the end of August for the aurora....

That's probably true. Also, I'm sure there's a certain segment of fashion fans, male fashion fans, who are very excited about Tae's new look.. as I'm re-watching June 2 concert, I'm waiting for them to show Jimin and JK and Yoongi and reminded that the three of them drove out there together. It would not have been a short drive and it makes me happy that they are all still family. Plenty of time to talk on that drive.💜🫶

He was underfed some, but still looked great. I expect he will lose some of this muscle maass, but not all of it. And rge fact that Celine in fine with his look is great. MOst models are stick thin - he has an actual body. Time ot watch the re-stream. I can't believe I missed yesterday's because of figuring the times wrong, Bad me.

tae - and I missed his live (again - as soon I find out about it, it's over) but caught all of Jin. I think he's tired and needs to rest. He said his knees hurt. Lots of mention of feeling old - I think it's just getting used to the schedule. I kept commenting that he shoud rest but I'm sure he never saw any of them, And Tae - because we can't get enough (and I HATE screamers)

You, too, can look like this for $10000+. I'm happy he has Bogum with him, as well. HIs level of happy must be way up there - he's only be discharged a bit more than three weeks. Everything must feel great (except the scary airport stuff.) So aorry for Yeunjun. There's no mention of who the family member was but I expect the length of his absence will be an indication of how close the person was (like a parent or sibling would be a long period of grief, and if it's a cousin or even a grandparent, less time, He's young and will come back sooner than we might, but also has the experience of loss and knowing mortality is real. That, especially if his first time with it, changes you forever, I think. The show Hobi was on and it has not terrible subtitles - Going to go walk the dog and get her dinner and be ready for the replay of the first show....

He may have had to arrive close to his flight time, knowing that Tae was mobbed - TV stations were not notified. And he arrived at arrivals and took the escalator up. He might feel a bit daunted setting off on a tour on his own. At least he has some time between the Japanese cities. HIs brother (and family) and I'd hoped he'd come here, but clearly no time for that. He could come back here for a few days after Osaka, for a break. The Tae mob scene was insane. Wasn't it him who said he even missed the airport experiences while he was in the military? One of them did. Bet that's not the case anymore. I truly do not understand the mentality behind crushing other fans with your phone lifted up to catch - what? the top of his head? I bet he felt nothing but relief when they got into the security line. Hopefully those inconsiderate ARMY will be shamed on social media.

I wondered what the livestream Incheon watch of Tae was about. He'll maybe fly straight from Paris to the states. When I saw that they were waiting for just Tae, I wondered why he'd be flying alone. I would guess most, of not all, the members would lfy to the states at the same time. Maybe Jin's schedule would have him flying at a different time, but I can't think they'd all take separate flights to LA. Looking forward to seeing Tae doing some fashion stuff, though it's for the show, not a photo shoot. He'll still look fine.
