This is my favorite little tik-tok oi theirs in a long time. Very creative and so so cute. I wonder whose idea it was. The jelly thing. I find it beyond frustrating. Between forcing the "jelly" buys and now charging PER episode of what we've already had access to on DM or other platforms, I think BigHIt has allowed their commercialism and greed to impact their behavior. Maybe this is because they want engagement while the guys are in the military. But they could release one a week on Weverse for free and still have that continued engagement (as if ARMY is going someplace). Not that they haven't squeezed money out of ARMY on every "artist" design. It's the charging for what was once free and available (and insisting on that jelly thing) that really makes me mad. Yes - let's find every single one of those offerings on DM or YouTube and share what we find. Also - Yoongi does the wig best, no doubt.

Kao seemed much better last season. Maybe it's just a rough start.... I think Jun's height is a factor in the run ups to his jumps - but he still needs to work on those because they seem interminable. And it used to be only his 3A he telegraphed (though he's better this year). Fingers crossed he has a clean free. (and I love his choice of music for his SP. Powerful and full of energy. It suits him...) One comment about Conrad - he ceased improving when he left TCC. I don't know if that's because he left them or if that would have been his stasis point. Looking forward to Kaori today. And Jun. They really are the only ones I care about winning -

See you tomorrow -

His practice is tomorrow at 11:25 to noon

I'm leaving Canada now - but will watch him tomorrow... He seemed to have it wrapped in an ace bandage or something when he was in kiss and cry

His ankle

best step sequence of all though

shit

No crowd

I figured when I saw the red square Jun just needs to skate clen

Did he mean to put his knee down?

Last but not least - for the last two skaters -didn't want you talking to yourself -----

I just read this morning that Yoong's tour brought in the most money - but maybe that was for soloist....but I believe it. JK does look so tiny! Both Beomgyu and Soobin taller. In fact, it's only Taehyun who is the same height as JK. I wonder if JK felt shorter...

The BBMAs are a mystery to me - I really don't know how they determine winners in any category. Adding these new K-Pop specific categories does mean the genre is being recognized and chances for the ones we love to be recognized and to win. But it's also NOT considering anything by a Korean group or artist to be "mainstream" or able to compete with American artists. They do have separate Latin categories and some of those artists (Bad Bunny, for instance) cross over. Maybe they should have a category for over-sexualized, embarrassing artists and MV. And how they don't have JK in there is absurd. It is sad, though, that it is unlikely that any of the members will be present for these - maybe they'll do recordings of thank yous..

I think anything BTS (or JK) still will make the BB charts,..

Weverse sort of answered my question about the Live replay for Jimin's Production Video purchasers - I guess they feel they are too busy to follow through "As informed in the product announcement and product details, the live replay will be available for "Jimin's Production Diary" customers. You will be able to access it once it is provided. Unfortunately, we are unable to answer when that will be, so we recommend that you check the announcement and product pages for more future details."

This is what it says on the Live, right below the Live and immediately above where you can access the VOD (which is also available on Media) LIVE replay will be available for "Jimin's Production Diary" customers. ※ 10월 23일 오후 8시(KST)에 진행되는 아티스트 LIVE 및 LIVE 다시보기는 <Jimin's Production Diary> 유료 콘텐츠 구매자 대상으로 진행될 예정인 점 참고 부탁 드립니다. ※ Weverse LIVE (scheduled for October 23, 8 PM (KST)) and LIVE replay will be available for "Jimin's Production Diary" customers. ※ こちらの有料作品をご購入のお客様は、10月23日の午後8時に行われるアーティストLIVEとその見逃し配信をご利用いただけます。 ※10月23日晚上8时(KST)进行的艺人LIVE与LIVE回放，将只对已购买《Jimin's Production Diary》VOD的顾客公开，敬请留意 Is it going to be one of those things like the "gifts" when you pay for a concert?

I started the VOD but still have no access to the Live - I'm not sure how you even get it. Do you think it's one of those hidden perks?

Has anyone else who purchased Jimin's Production Diary been able to figure out how to watch a replay of the Live? Purchasers are supposed to be able to watch a replay but I haven't been able to... is there a trick?

I like his hair more on the blonder side and not so reddish - (but actually like it black best). Of course his live was while I was asleep. The few tweet translations i saw included him saying something about him noticing it was a lot of international ARMY. He must have timed it for that. He'd have been a bit early on the day for Korean and still middle of the night for me. According to the Weverse Live page, replays of that Live are only available to people who purchased the documentary. I hope that means the subs will be up on it quickly. I cna see that the documentary is available to me but I don't know about the Live and I want that, too.

I did - I believe it becomes available in the middle of the night.....

Translation of RM's Instagram post-

Here's news we already knew, but didn't realize there is actually statistics to show it. https://www.koreaboo.com/news/university-study-shows-bts-may-actually-saved-lives-pandemic/

Just watched the MV for JK's new song - I like it with the exception of the CentralCee parts (most that I can barely understand). Would have liked it a lot more if it was just the two singing. If you want to buy it, this is advice. Followed by three tweets about how to get the MAMA votes going -

Lots of English, too.....
