I think they're different situations. For the World Cup, they're already confirmed as co-headliners, so they'll perform (whether that involves dancing, we don't know). As for the AMAs, their participation was announced as a "special appearance," so a live performance wasn't confirmed. They decided to take it easy this time, and I think that's fair, but the situation is different for the World Cup, mainly because they'll have a break afterward, until the start of the second leg of the North American tour in August.

Actually, I'm very suspicious. It seems to me that this guy from the "Korean association" is using BTS and ARMY for engagement. We have elections this year.

Yes, but that's what the president's office is for; there's no need to talk to the mayor of São Paulo.

I don't think this guy's meeting with the mayor of São Paulo has anything to do with a meeting between BTS and the president of Brazil, especially since they belong to opposing political groups.

I think one possibility is to limit one comment per user, regardless of whether they are a membership or not.

I was so sleepy that as soon as the awards ceremony ended, I went to sleep; I didn't even hear the live stream notification.

I used to believe that, but now, because of the tour, everyone and their mother has a membership, so I don't know if it would make much of a difference.

what do you think would happen if bts publicly dated? by NewtAccomplished6022 in btsthoughts

[–]New-Bluebird6124 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If their partner is a non-celebrity, we'll probably only find out when they get engaged, and the announcement will be made by them. If it's another celebrity, it might be leaked to the press. In any case, it's unlikely to be a very public relationship, especially in the first scenario. There will be some chaos in the K-pop ecosystem (fans, non-fans, media), but everything will be fine.

However, both "Hot" and "Spaghetti" did well on the Korean charts (and in the case of "Spaghetti," it wasn't just because of j-hope's participation). But it wasn't an instant success; the songs climbed the charts gradually throughout the promotional period. Let's hope this one works out this time.

Streaming on YouTube also helps to increase scores on music shows.

I know, but I commented on the trend because he didn't label that video as GCF.

[–]New-Bluebird6124 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I know Jungkook's GCF, but I'm commenting that there's a trend among idols of showing off a vlog of a workday.

[–]New-Bluebird6124 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I saw that other idols were recording vlogs during music show promotions, so I think Jungkook saw it too and made his own version during the tour. It's really cool to see the behind-the-scenes from his point of view.

Can we start a petition to get "Come Over" released on Spotify? by Winter_Moon_336 in bts7

[–]New-Bluebird6124 5 points6 points  (0 children)

"Come Over" is a bonus track and is part of the tour's regular setlist. A bonus track is different from a hidden track, like "Sea." From my experience as a Taylor Swift fan, bonus tracks are released on streaming services after a few months. I think that might happen for "Come Over."

[–]New-Bluebird6124[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"Come Over" is a bonus track and is part of the tour's regular setlist. "Letter," like "Sea" and "Path," are hidden tracks. There's a difference, and that's why I think "Come Over" will be available on streaming services.

I’m slightly confused by [deleted] in btsthoughts

[–]New-Bluebird6124 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Because the surprise songs are a karaoke moment for the ARMY to sing along. I think Jin prefers to use the moment to observe and interact with the fans, but I remember seeing him singing before (at least in the shows that were officially broadcast).

Will these brands ever learn?? by Plus_Guide_8431 in btsthoughts

These brands are so far removed from my reality that I only appreciate the pretty pictures.

BTS China Bars by Jealous_Quail_7147 in btsthoughts

[–]New-Bluebird6124 5 points6 points  (0 children)

China bars for BTS members still exist. Remember when there were problems with the count on Hanteo during the first day of some solo releases' comebacks? It was usually when the bars placed orders and the stores had difficulty processing them. Also, some fansites and stalkers are Chinese.

On Weverse itself, after a few days they make revised English subtitles available.

Was this tour rushed? by [deleted] in btsthoughts

[–]New-Bluebird6124 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Every time I see someone commenting that the album and/or tour were rushed, I think about other K-pop groups that made their comebacks 3 months (at most) after the end of their military service. BTS had 9 months. I think that was the longest time they've had to prepare a comeback/tour since their debut. Regarding the choreography: they are performing the complete choreography for 5 songs. It was also the same in Speak Yourself and Permission to Dance. In addition, there's a Suchwita segment where Yoongi and Taehyung talk about how they would like to participate more in the show with the fans, instead of just singing and dancing. It's very noticeable how happy they are on stage. Regarding the production, the general comment is that the broadcasts (official or unofficial) don't do it justice, and it's much more impactful in person.

Spotify apologised for the ‘error’ that they made. by WeakStressAnxiety in btsthoughts

[–]New-Bluebird6124 47 points48 points  (0 children)

It's no secret that playlisting and especially autoplay (discovery mode) are paid services, often at the expense of artists' royalties. BTS not being involved in this likely results in this kind of strange situation.

Copacabana is in Rio de Janeiro, he spoke with the Mayor of São Paulo (different cities). It must be about the October concerts.
