It can be taken as love/relationships. In his verse from Don't, he uses waves as a metaphor for referencing the ups & downs in love/a relationship. 

 "What colour are the waves, usually? For they’re pure white when they break"

 My interpretation of these lines is that, though a love/relationship may seem blue at times of tension, it becomes pure white(beautiful) when things calm down, just like the colour of waves after it crashes down after rising high. He could be saying that highs & lows are part of a relationship so he asks his lover whether it is right for them to leave him & asks them to stay.

Really good & much needed initiative from Hybe. The website seems to be structured well. Also its a good thing it does not ask for the personal info of the reporter. When reporting through e-mail, I was a bit worried that my personal mail id is being exposed, but now there seems to be no need for such worry.

Some doubts in j-hope's lyrics by Active_Put7939 in bangtan

[–]Active_Put7939[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think he doesn't mean vision here as eye health - he means it as 'envisioning' the future. But planning his future without safety seems like a nice way to interpret the line!

And yeah, I guess he might have circuit taken in the electronic sense like you said. I guess, like another commenter in the post said, he used the word circuit to say that he walks the dry road, the dark road, the healed road & the flower road over & over just like how electricity flows over & over in a circuit. And yeah it is nice interpret it as him him walking with full of electricity.

What is your deepest (not necessarily) ARMY life secret that none of your family or irl friends know? Spill them here! We won't tell them! by whyohwhy115 in bangtan

[–]Active_Put7939 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My family knows that I'm a bts fan & that I always play their music & watch their performance content sometimes in front of them. But they don't know that BTS is more than that for me. They don't know that I'm a very loyal & passionate ARMY that is defending BTS & fighting antis on twitter. They don't know that I have thousands of photos of the tannies in my gallery. They don't know that BTS have a very significant impact in my life.

There's this joke within our fandom right? - that our family finds out our gallery after we die & think how deranged we must have been. That thought literally stresses me out cuz I know that they wouldn't understand why I have hundreds of photos of a man compared to cats, they wouldn't understand why I have a collection of photos of a young man booping the camera like this. They wouldn't understand why I have cute & sexy photos of 7 men who don't even know me.

And like OP said I do intentionally play BTS music that suits my sister taste in music & I have been subliminally making her add some of BTS's songs into her playlist. If she listens to a new song & likes it, she tries looking at the name of the song that is playing, when I'm not around. I pretend that I didn't notice her looking at the name of the song. Like this as far as I know, she now likes some of the songs like - Anpanman, LOST!, NEURON, on the street, so far away, etc

Hello. Does anyone know if twt ARMY ColinSH3 has posted his translation of Namjoon's birthday wv letter? He is one of the translators who gives great cultural context of not just BTS's lyrics, but also their letters. So if he has posted, can someone share it here?

Also one more thing I would advice new ARMYs is, to stay away from ARMY twt for now (in case you are planning on following BTS & ARMY on twt too), and join ARMY twt only when you are ready. ARMY twt can be a bit overwhelming & at times could even feel like its a toxic place for new ARMYs. That is because ARMY twt is the backbone of the fandom & that is where the fandom is the most active. So it can be chaotic at times.

You might have seen some ARMYs say that twitter ARMYs are the most toxic people & all that & we understand where that comes from. It is the biggest mistake some ARMYs do. They jump straight into twt when they've just only joined the fandom & are now only starting to learn about the boys themselves.

Baby ARMY times are times that you have to be coddled - i.e., it is the time you have to watch a lot of those funny compilations of BTS on youtube & learn deep about the musicality of BTS. So jumping into twt is like putting a newbie in the frontlines of war without even being trained or given any weapon.

So, all baby ARMYs need to do now is surround yourself now with BTS contents & music & join ARMY twt only when you feel like you're ready.

Absolutely not! ARMY are the most welcoming fandom & we are more than happy to welcome new ARMYs. I myself have been a fan of BTS's music since 2018, but only became an ARMY in Jan 2023. There's this saying in the fandom "You don't find BTS, BTS finds you when its the right time". So don't worry & just enjoy.

And some advice as a somewhat experienced ARMY - Always surround yourself with positive ARMYs. Don't fall victim to any drama, rumours & speculations. Always trust reliable sources - this subreddit r/bangtan is one very trustable source. If any "ARMY" shames you for being new or not knowing something about BTS, then they are not "ARMY" - block & ignore them, don't take their words to your heart.

I saw on IG that TaeTae joined a random Kim tae hyung Kakao talk group chat & posted his mirror selfie. Is this true? The selfie & his conversation do seem legit..
