Jimin is Puck. Hobi could play him, too. Namjoon could, but with 7 to choose from, he wouldn't be my first choice.

It's 30 minutes worth and I haven't had time to watch it either, yet. Interesting tidbit about Tae's new song - and this makes me wonder, in general, whether we have seen much of truly new music. I have a suspicion that there are many songs just waiting for their time. bts memeories⁷ ⁦‪@btsmemeories‬⁩ Taehyung was already playing FRI(END)S as early as the Jinny’s Kitchen Retreat! pic.twitter.com/ArIskQ7SnI 3/10/24, 6:19 AM

Still hoping that Yoongi posts something on Weverse. I feel certain that the other members will have reached out to wish him an Happy birthday, yet we only know of Jin. God, I just love Jin. He's so thoughtful - especially of ARMY.

There are lots of references to Le Petit Prince in Busan, including a building-size mural in Gamcheon Culture Village, just across the street from another mural with massive paintings of JK and Jimin holding red roses. I think it's the theme of “ What is essential is invisible to the eye “ being a culturally familiar feel. Sort of Buddhist-like. Koreans are generally kind, and being kind is the #1 message of the book.

Agree on the potential for photoshopped Bam... And is this movie going to be something different than one of the online concerts or his Road to DDay documentary

I think this may be recent - he seems to be wearing army pants tucked into his boots. Not super clear, but it is the first we've really seen of JK not on base. Maybe recent - and I wonder if Bam is in Seoul, where JK would be able to see him more easily, or in Busan with his family. https://www.threads.net/@purple_lovetae07/post/C4ILkKPtfhV/

The guy is so stunningly skinny, I'm surprised one drink didn't overwhelm him. Interestingly. he doesn't turn bright red like Hobi always does when he drinks. I bet he felt awful -

Between Tae giving us something new in two weeks, Hobi in 3 weeks and TXT having their latest comeback on the 1st of April, how can I keep my playlists current? I wish there was a way to simply modify and edit one, but other than adding new stuff and using “shuffle“ I can't think of a way. Not that I am complaining about new music. I think we could possibly expect new music from RM and Yoongi- maybe. JK was so busy with all his massively successful solo projects before enlistment, I don''t know if he has something that he'll release in the summer, or fall. No way to verify this but interesting - and, also, why nothing from JK? https://www.sportskeeda.com/pop-culture/news-love-how-he-is-always-succeeding-fans-rejoice-bts-jimin-becomes-eligible-corporal-s-position-two-months-earlier-set-date

Just random stuff he posted, maybe... Stream Persona - https://www.threads.net/@viennesearmy77/post/C4BqP4ANUC9/

I never thought TaeKook was a real deal, anyway - maybe a JiKook, but who knows. JK was certainly in the kind of fit shape to have made the special warrior group and he'd have known a while ago that the tattoos were going to make that not a possibility. He chose to get all that ink. I didn't know that the companion program is for less desirable locations, but we had already read/heard that the base Jin has been at (and where Jimin and JK are now) is considered a "hardship" post but has some perks, like more days off. That kind of makes sense - why else would Jin have volunteered for it? I do wonder when we will actually know what assignment Yoongi has. I'm just pleased that he's probably in Seoul. The Military Manpower Admin building is not very far from the Hanam district (is thatt where he lives?) and relatively close to the Hybe building so he, theoretically can just hop over to his studio on his way home. I wonder if the "best trainee" is a monthly award or one that is given once to an enlisting group. In truth, we haven't heard from JK and no matter what great shape he was in, physically, he may not be adapting as well to the military life a Jimin is. We've only gotten a couple of mentions about him from Jimin (who, incidentally, mentioned in his last live that he'd see Yoongi and that he was well - another reason to believe he's in Seoul). JK was close to tears in his last live, unlike the others. Being with Jimin is the best possible place for JK to be.

Another bit on Hobi - https://www.threads.net/@purple_lovetae07/post/C35X_Njv62v/

So hard to get anything fresh on the members. I am really looking forward to Hobi's new stuff. And I did find a couple of random things. cestlavie_90⁷💜 ⁦‪@cestlavie9090‬⁩ "This isn't mine.

It's as if they've been singing together for a decade! JK knows Jimin so well.

Season 2 -that is SO far in the future..... But he, once again, reassures us that BTS will be running around on stage again. Hearing that from Yoongi is the most reassuring.

I wondered how long ago this picture was taken. No lip piercing -

Evidently, this is a thing. And I guess today is the day Fake Love is being pushed by ARMY. Already in the top ten of Itunes - Hobi's album - forst I had to choose which version and now I wonder if it's actually two different albums. Prelude and Interlude. Maybe when the track lists are released, that will be answered. JIN GLOBAL 🌐 #JintercontinentalCup 🏆 ⁦‪@SeokjinGlobal‬⁩ 🌊 9 HOURS TO GO!

Yum. Is Tae the other voice?

And now I am face with that recurring dilemma of what version to get. I definitely want to support Hobi in this. At least ITunes is only one. But of course, I will get a physical copy, too. I am okay with the dribble of new stuff to buy and it's good to have it. It does annoy, me, however, that Weverse has ads for merch on all the media - even teasers. I understand commercial behavior but, for me, the BTS page should be free of all this. That's just me.

He can be their manager, for sure. There was a notice from someone right near midnight, the 17th18th in Korea, from someone and I went ahead and sen him my birthday fan letter right then - bleary eyed. Clearly, he had a couple of days off - so far, I think, Jin is the one most likely to post a comment about anything from his phone, even while serving. The otthers seem to wait until they have a day off - except, I guess, RM, who also wished Hobi a happy birthday, though maybe he was off, too. I so hope tthe members see each other when they are off. Part of the birthday stuff from ARMY was a cup/coffee promotion that Hobi shows the cup from on his Insta-real. I did a quick screenshot - that didn't work https://www.instagram.com/stories/uarmyhope/3305469463497243645/ I can't get the twitter to work, still, but this is what it was about.

6 new songs or dance to songs already out there will be the question.... and I wonder if the documentary will be something we have to purchase or available on Weverse. It would be a nice gift to ARMY for it to be free on Weverse. Jin left us monthly messages and I think is was Hobi who lamented that he hadn't prepared anything like Jin had. March 3 is only two weeks away- and a week before Yoongi's birthday. Hoping for multiple gifts to us in March. I'll hold off on revamping my playlists for at least a couple of weeks. And having watched the Jack in the Box documentary on Disney, it does seem to me that dance to the start and the end-all of what he truly loves.

And I was just about to re-work my YouTube and Spotify lists. - I wonder what this will be and if it will contain anything we haven't seen before. My twitter is not recognizing me on my computer so I can't actually pull up or repost anything from the, but go to @uarmyvibe as that person posted a neuron crew tribute to Hobi for his birthday

For unknown reasons, Twitter won't let me click on tweets on my computer so I don't know if these photos are part of the above - but, if like me, you can always screenshot favorites and make prints. I'd say 11X14 is about as big as you can get without losing resolution. But that's a nice size for sticking up on the wall. https://www.threads.net/@bighit_entbt/post/C3aZ9x3tqWs/ https://www.threads.net/@bighit_entbt/post/C3aZ9x3tqWs/https://www.threads.net/@bighit_entbt/post/C3aZ9x3tqWs/

The 15th division does not have a military band. It's just infantry. Each base does not have a band. Note - we have never seen anything like a band or anyone in one of those uniforms in any of the Hobi pics from assorted group graduations. And none from Jin's base, either.

Maybe so, but I do know that for any military band for any branch of the the US armed services, there is a highly competitive audition process. This is because, if you are in a military band, you will not be going into any war zone or be called to serve in a fighting unit. This was the reason my mother wanted all four of my brothers to be proficient playing their brass instruments. And while this may or may not be true, it was reported that he is in the 15th division and that is an infantry division with no mention of a band. And the info I've dredged up says “All musicians are all volunteering civilians“ - and need to be 27 or under. I would love to think of him NOT anywhere near fighting, but I'll withhold believing this until I see additional “leaked“ photos showing him in uniform with a sax.
