It's the opposit for me, my first thought really was "finally!"

Yeah, pretty much every MOA I see on X has expressed the same sentiment, but my gut feeling is that TXT themselves didn't really want this break, even if they need it. They're trying to aim high and achieve big things, it has to be stressful af to be down a man to start with. And now they'll be away from work for an undefined amount of time. If you know anything about ambitious and driven people, you'll realize how hard that is for them.

 

Look their faces since Soobin stepped away - there's a lot of worry and tension there. It's not just fatigue. Whatever it is, I hope their time off helps them resolve it.

I wonder if this is going to get sold internationally. Several celebrities have gotten the bulk of their wealth from alcohol sales. Some are even billionaires

I've been waiting for Jin to reveal the outcome of his venture into traditional alcohol brewing

Oh yuck! It's gin. It's so Jin to be drinking gin. ETA: I'm confused. The first article says it's gin but the post from what looks like the company says it's made from rice and apples. I'm guessing the author of the first article got confused because of the name?  ETA 2: looked again and it says right on the bottle that it's gin. still confused that gin would be made from rice and apples. The fact that the label is in English makes me think it's intended for international distribution so hopefully I can find it here

 

I've only had really bad gin. Supposedly good gin has a balanced flavor as opposed to pure pine trees so hopefully I'll like this if I ever get a chance to try it. So far, only a store in Korea was mentioned. Sometimes some of the guys seem like they have no concept of how popular they really are. Even though he's not nearly as popular in the US, it'll still fly off the shelves here.

 

And I read that Igin means "winner"

I'll keep an eye out for it at my LCBO, they bring in all kinds of imports. I see no reason they wouldn't get this.

 

But what I meant was  I want to see part 5 of Jin's Traditional Alcohol Journey, where he finally opens his bathtub jar of soju that he started two years ago before enlisting, and tests the results. I really loved that show, it was so nice and relaxed.

I hope Jin isn't too disappointed that he didn't get a studio, but the three who have them write so much.  They must have a large, special room for the four vocal line members.  Their own space away from the rest of the company.

 

I hate gin.  But the flavored ones, especially in convenient cans, will probably be popular int he states.

 

This is as much of Sun that we will ever see -

It was succesful. He has gifted his self made alcohol (makgolli?) to his friends. Everyone who got a bottle was bragging about it😂.

It's things like this that make me believe that the Hobi we see is genuine.  I think there are a couple of absolutely true things we can say about him: he is a perfectionist and expects the same from the members; and he is kind.  In discussions here with the owner of the dog I look after on Jeju, having her listen to Tae's Christmas songs, and then Jimin and others, to show how different they are individually, and she says they are still k-pop, but I disagree.  They, even before their solo work, had stretched the bounds of k-pop.  They are more inclusive of other genres and have sort of morphed into their own genre.  Maybe it's the "idol" thing that will stay with them forever, and that's okay, but they are hardly a "boy" group anymore and haven't been for some time.

Well - no surprise - but I do like Who better than Standing Next to You - because it's more unique....  Still, I guess it really is remarkable that Jungkook won, though the K in front of the award category left no other choice but JK.  They need to in "regular" categories.

And I finally saw a post about it. I'm happy to know it worked!
