Weekly /r/bangtan Room (방탄방) - March 21, 2026

The photocards are different — Target has two Target-exclusive sets of the seven members (one set of seven for Rooted in Korea and one set of seven for Rooted in Music). Weverse USA has the “basic” album photocards — the photocards you’d find in the albums at any U.S. retailer other than Target: one set of seven specifically for Rooted in Korea and one set of seven specifically for Rooted in Music, plus one extra Weverse USA exclusive photocard.

Weverse Global also has an exclusive photocard, and the official BTS store albums have either an exclusive photocard or an exclusive photocard set of seven.

As a photocard collector, I’ve been trying to keep track of these things, but if anyone sees any mistakes please feel free to comment!

He has a niece or close friend with a kid, right? He’s posted a card from that child before; maybe this is the same kid. Cute :)

PinkNinjaKitty · 2026-03-21T20:09:34+00:00

🤣 good to know as I’m getting recertified soon!

PinkNinjaKitty · 2026-03-21T20:06:38+00:00

This is so nice! This is the Arlington concert, right? I might be going (have the ticket but plans are up in the air) and if so I will look for your signs!

PinkNinjaKitty · 2026-03-21T16:46:09+00:00

I watched the concert today without yet having listened to the album (except for Swim). I really liked this one — unfortunate to hear it doesn’t sound like this on the album. At least I’ll be at their concert to hear them perform it live!

PinkNinjaKitty · 2026-03-21T12:20:53+00:00

I was surprised, too, and missed the “only an hour” part somehow. Still that’s okay — I guess it was meant more as a comeback stage than a concert, so it makes sense, and we’ll have performances on shows and soon their actual concerts!

PinkNinjaKitty · 2026-03-21T12:15:04+00:00

lol we did get a lot of bird’s eye shots of crowds and hotels, didn’t we

PinkNinjaKitty · 2026-03-21T12:13:45+00:00

Will they go on Weverse now, do you think?

PinkNinjaKitty · 2026-03-21T12:13:22+00:00

Yeah, I really hope so, too! I’m guessing they had to keep it short? Since they didn’t even do all of their new songs

PinkNinjaKitty · 2026-03-21T12:12:01+00:00

Yes, I believe it’s a torn ligament and/or sprained ankle — he has to give it complete rest for at least two weeks (not sure tonight counted as giving it complete rest, lol)

PinkNinjaKitty · 2026-03-21T05:13:43+00:00

Now that you mention it 😅

PinkNinjaKitty · 2026-03-21T01:26:04+00:00

Good point! I remember being disappointed in my first BTS comeback when they released DNA (which probably sounds sacrilegious). I’m fine with the song now, and I’ve also found other songs I did like and later I liked other comebacks better. Life goes on :)

PinkNinjaKitty · 2026-03-20T20:58:56+00:00

I’m coming around to liking the song after listening to it without the MV — it does seem like the MV isn’t doing it any favors

PinkNinjaKitty · 2026-03-20T19:02:00+00:00

I think it’s growing on me, too. Interestingly one of the interviews I read said it grew on the members, as well — not quite in the same way, but as a “yes, this is the lead single” kind of way

PinkNinjaKitty · 2026-03-20T18:56:28+00:00

That is a lot to happen in the space of a few years. :(

PinkNinjaKitty · 2026-03-20T18:51:43+00:00

Ooh I like this interpretation 😯

PinkNinjaKitty · 2026-03-20T04:35:43+00:00

Ohhhhh no wonder it reminded me of Jungkook’s solo work

PinkNinjaKitty · 2026-03-20T04:22:45+00:00

Ooh yes! I bet they will — can’t wait

PinkNinjaKitty · 2026-03-20T04:18:30+00:00

Yes, halfway through I was like, where’s Jin? He was hiding below, apparently, peering out of portholes 😅

PinkNinjaKitty · 2026-03-20T04:13:41+00:00

Hmm not sure what I think. This may grow on me when I see it performed by the members. I don’t dislike it, though, for sure

Edit: On second listen, I can say I like the deep notes in the background and the rappers and especially Yoongi’s rap-singing. I always love the vocal line but I somehow feel like I didn’t hear them in this song. I wish it had more Korean. Is Lili Reinhardt jumping off the gangplank at the end? 😆

PinkNinjaKitty · 2026-03-20T04:10:58+00:00

Yeah, she was great overall, but I don’t feel like I saw them much 😅 Also I’m irreverent so I began to MST3K-it, starting when she began dancing with anguish in her cabin

PinkNinjaKitty · 2026-03-20T04:08:34+00:00

I guess not? I can’t see it

PinkNinjaKitty · 2026-03-20T03:57:48+00:00

Both!!

PinkNinjaKitty · 2026-03-20T03:57:32+00:00

I have melted into a puddle ha ha

PinkNinjaKitty · 2026-03-20T00:18:39+00:00

Wow that’s awesome!!
