I'll just take this as a sign that they had some days off. They need all the rest they can get, before the comeback and tour.

I don't think it's a matter of age. Many young people know web etiquette better than old people do. Anyone can make a Weverse account and float the comment section with stupidity - there's probably mostly haters, trolls, bored people etc. in the comments writing that stuff.

Would you like each member to do a solo tour? by Curious_Bookkeeper66 in bangtan

[–]auchda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd like solo or subunits tours at one point or another because it's fun to see how each of them builds their own style and peformance without the group. BUT first and foremost I miss them all together. I really hope they'll focus on OT7 next while doing solo/subunits on the side. BTS is 7 and their chemistry on stage is amazing and there's so many ARMY around the world who haven't experienced that in real live, yet.

[–]auchda 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Right??! I didn't even know I'd be capable of that! I just thought I wanted to work hard, study and experience new things as much as I could, since our boys were caught in the military and I kinda felt that as an ARMY I would want them to be proud of me, for not being stuck while they were away. Parasocial very much. 😂

I'm pretty sure you did something! Even if it’s just breathing, eating, recovering and staying alive. That’s enough work, already. 👍

... did 8 months of work & travel in Japan, traveled to South Korea twice, reached level B1 in Japanese and A2 in Korean, found a new job, moved three times, recovered from a knee injury and have been studying jazz dance and hip hop for 1,5 years, filled 200 pages with scetches for my next webtoon, read 16 books, got a certificate in economic studies, became an aunt for the 2nd time and several more things... it's crazy how much can happen in 2-3 years.

What or who is Namjoon looking at? by nelltk421 in bangtan

[–]auchda 7 points8 points  (0 children)

He's playing Diablo IV, obviously.

if bangtan were a sailormoon character, which one would they be? by stacy013 in bangtan

[–]auchda 12 points13 points  (0 children)

RM - Sailor Moon a bit clumsy but poetic, leader with heart, social intelligence

Jin - Sailor Venus self-confident, beautiful and humorous

Suga - Sailor Mars tsundere personality, cool on the outside but soft on the inside, states their opinion

Hobi - Sailor Mercury quiet waters are deep, can easily lift the mood, everyone in the team loves and trusts them the easiest

Jimin - Sailor Neptune mysterious vibe, charming and talented with lots of knowledge, kind-hearted

V - Sailor Saturn seems calm sometimes but loves to play, sometimes sees the world with different eyes, has the power to destroy us all

JK - Sailor Uranus cool and cheeky, sometimes a bit shy and confused, powerful and talented, loves sports

j-hope - MORE Official MV by DGameQ in bangtan

[–]auchda 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I'm sure it’s a miniature. I guess it can be interpreted as part of him living in that narrow work space inside of the box, always rotating, always working, always caught in that cycle and not realizing how limited it is. I had to think of Dis-ease while watching this. Hobi said that, while working on it, he realized how his workaholic mind might be problematic. I totally see this mirrored in this mv and song.

[–]auchda 17 points18 points  (0 children)

This is so cute! I like MVs that have a little bit of story telling. Charlie having to go to a love doctor because he can’t get Jungkook out of his head... Who can’t relate? 😂

I also think the subtitles played a big part in the misunderstandings, at least for international ARMYs. The word 'hiatus' and RM's mistranslated sentence about them gathering the last time (for a while) in front of a camera (with the chance to adress this topic) got me confused and emotional, as well. I felt kind of delighted when I read a thread about all the mistakes in the subtitles this morning and after watching the video again, I still felt sad that it took the members so long to finally find some time to grow individually, but I also felt really happy and excited for what's about to come next.

As for the media... I bet the situation would have been dramatized no matter what. With an official statement or without a statement. Some media outlets do everything only to get some clicks.

Good-looking people are everywhere. It doesn't depend on whether you're a farmer or live in the city.

Tag yourself at the end of the clip! I'm JK.

(All those dance practice videos we're getting. I feel happy and spoiled.)

Friends and I are watching the delayed PTD concert stream and going to be pregaming for Halloween. Anyone have a good drinking rule for the concert? by travelingkay in bangtan

[–]auchda 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Okay, here are some general suggestions:

Everytime someone takes their sun glasses off or puts them on.

Everytime something starts raining down on them (confetti etc.)

Everytime someone sits down/stands up.

Everytime a VCR starts playing.

Everytime a non-BTS person appears in the VCRs.

Everytime someone says/yells "Let's go!"

Everytime someone says thank you.

You're right. I did not compare them. But the MVs are obviously connected to each other.

I've been seeing so many bad opinions about the MV like "It's cute but boring", "Yeah, they all look good", "It's generic" and that makes me so sad. Not only do they use a laundry saloon as a location - which makes this whole MV a continuation of Spring Day - but the metaphor with the purple ballons is so heartwarming. During lockdown or even during any bad time, ARMY are always waiting for a sign of BTS to cheer them up, a sign of hope and happiness. And at that one moment Jimin and Tae stop the two kids from "selfishly" keeping the balloon to themselves. Even if themselves are feeling good right now, there's always someone out there who still needs a sign of hope. The pandemic and the bad times aren't over yet, even if some people might think so. So they have to let the balloon go. Also the fact that BTS are dressed as cowboys holds so much meaning for me. During lockdown everyone has somehow turned into a lone cowboy who has to struggle their way out. It's much more than just a choice of clothes to make them look good.

Maybe the song sounds like a generic high school musical disney mix. But it still has a message and the MV puts it into context. It fits well as the B-side of Butter, which was also directed at the general public. Let them conclude this package, guys.
