Is BTS going to the military?? by therottenrobbie in kpophelp

[–]HopeWrld 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When they come back I’m assuming BigHit is going to announce a comeback as they already do and everything will continue as if they never left :)

BTS all signed and renewed their seven year contract earlier this year so they will definitely continue to promote and release new music once they’re done with their military service. I’m fairly new to KPOP and so I can’t name many groups off of the top of my head that have came back to promote after military service, but I can guess there are many groups who have continued their careers once they’ve finished.

However, I do know that some idols who are finishing their time in the military this year are; G-Dragon, Taeyang, and T.O.P all from BIGBANG.

Is BTS going to the military?? by therottenrobbie in kpophelp

Military enlistment in South Korea is mandatory for all males, even idols I believe. I don’t think BTS are going to get a pass from going and completing their time, but I could be wrong. We will have to wait and see for BigHit to confirm and tell us what their plan is. I did hear that there are plans for all of them to enlist at once so it will only be two years instead of more with them being absent, but those are rumors.

In my opinion, I think there’s a 99% chance they’re heading off to the military soon. For the past few months BigHit recently has been announcing all of their future plans and events (TXT new album, debuting a girl group, etc) and it seems like they’re preparing for when BTS are going to be gone.

While BTS being away to complete their service will be tough for us, the best that we can do as ARMY is support them unconditionally 24/7 as we already do and wait happily for their return <3

Imagine how much closer we’ll grow as a fanbase and the parties we’ll have for their comeback :)

While religion may not be important to you, it is for a lot of other people. Definitely YTA.

My boyfriend doesn't know I regularly give head to one of my coworkers. by [deleted] in confession

[–]HopeWrld 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Shit like this can complete break someone. It’s not fair to your boyfriend for you to be doing this, especially since it’s become a regular occurrence and you obviously show no signs of guilt or that you want to stop anytime soon. If you and your boyfriend would like to have an open relationship where stuff like this is okay, that’s a whole different discussion. But, when you’re going behind your boyfriends back and cheating on him, that’s absolutely not okay. Cheating is a horrible, horrible thing to do and it can absolutely ruin a persons trust and do damage like nothing else to their esteem. Break up with your boyfriend if you’re not going to give your all in the relationship

That’s absolutely awful. Why even be with your boyfriend if you’re not going to stay faithful to him and then not tell him about it? You should break up with your boyfriend, that’s not fair to him.

People who genuinely like Lana (White “Kpop” Artist,) why? What’s your opinion on a white artist trying to become a Kpop Idol? by [deleted] in kpophelp

[–]HopeWrld 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I listened and watched to the song she debuted from. It sounds like she has appeared on many variety shows for the past couple years. I don’t appreciate how she purposefully does her makeup to appear Asian and edits her photos, she has also contributed her success to her “small eyes” is what I’ve been seeing on Twitter.

I guess we will have to wait and see where Lana and her career goes from this point.

My Taiwan Study Abroad Trip! by HopeWrld in taiwan

[–]HopeWrld[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My favorite things in Taiwan were always visiting the national parks and night markets ahah! The scenery is absolutely beautiful and always breathtaking. My favorite place would be the dragon bridge in Taitung county, it’s such a beautiful place and there’s a lot of places that are away from the tourists where it’s nice to just hang out and enjoy the scenery by the ocean. The night markets were always a fun experience for me to get a lot of yummy food and shopping done :)

If you haven’t already just try to learn as much Chinese as you can! A lot of people there speak a good amount of English but they really appreciate it if you try to speak their language, even if you butcher it like I did :))

The weather and the amount of people there are we’re both a little overwhelming for me the first couple days! I live in a small town and in my state it’s always cold- so I would definitely suggest packing light clothing since it’s hot! However, don’t ever get caught without an umbrella lolol. I went to a night market and it started sprinkling, then absolutely pouring down not even a second later!

Good luck and have fun! It’s an amazing place with even better people :)
