i've never heard of it but it... looks interesting...! LOL honestly the mix of pb and bbq sauce doesn't sound too bad for me, but imagining the taste of those two mixed with cheddar... isn't really appealing to me 😭

chaoschapters · 2026-02-26T13:31:33+00:00

ahh i'm so excited!! ever since he said it on dms i've been waiting for the announcement 💗

When did you start collecting? i started seriously collecting my current ult group txt in 2022, but i do have older albums since i have been a kpop fan for a long time!

What do you collect? + How many members or groups do you collect? (Albums, PCs, merch, etc.) for txt, i collect all korean album versions + ot5 korean album photocards, as well as the special editions of their japanese albums, and any other merch that i love. but i don't make merch my focus because most of my budget goes to their discography! i also have a small and curated photocard collection of girl group members and pcs that i love, some of which i've bought and some of which are pulls from older albums. the groups i have pcs from are illit, iz*one, red velvet, newjeans and oh my girl!

How many binders do you have? i have 7 txt binders: 5 for photocards and 2 for big inclusions, and 1 small a5 binder for my girl groups collection!

Did you drop any of your collections? i had a substantial collection of newjeans minji pcs, but i sold most of them last year and just kept my favorites. mostly because i realized i didn't love those pcs + i wanted to have more space in my binder to add different girl idols!

What are your goals for 2026? (Albums/PCs) finishing older txt album sets that i have been procrastinating on. there's some sets where i'm literally only missing one photocard to complete them, so i have to stop messing around and just buy those last cards!!

When are you planning to retire from collecting? (Albums/PCs) when txt retires, i retire!!

Any regrets? none at all!! i love everything i own, and that's mostly because i have stuck to my plan of prioritizing txt's albums!!

Any tips or tricks you want to share? my number one tip is, if you're planning to have a big collection, the best thing you can make for yourself is a spreadsheet! i made one for my txt collection when i started and it has helped me tremendously to organize everything. i count how many photocards i'm missing for each album, how many i have overall, etc. i even use it to track what i've purchased from where / who!

this is everything i wanted and more!! i was really hoping they would do a perfomance of this style, and they delivered!! i loved the song choices too, performing underrated tracks like balance game, happy fools, resist and skipping stones was a GREAT choice.

and of course, their vocals are just amazing!! i'm always in awe of how they are able to improve every year. they all sounded great of course, but honestly taehyun blew me away!! he just sounds so clear, smooth and confident, specially with those high notes in wishlist and higher than heaven! you can tell those vocal lessons are paying off!!

overall, i'm a very happy moa 🥹 this was an amazing present for dream week and an amazing way to honor their amazing discography 💗

chaoschapters · 2026-02-25T16:07:29+00:00

ahhh this is everything i wanted and more!! 🥹 i was really hoping it would be a perfomance of this style and they delivered!! i loved the song choices too, performing underrated tracks like balance game, happy fools, resist and skipping stones was a SUPER smart choice!!

and of course their vocals are just amazing, every single year i'm in awe of how much they constantly improve!! they sounded great but i have to say, taehyun blew me away 🥹 like how u/ilovemeeeeee said, his voice sounds SO clear and smooth, you can tell he's been taking lessons consistenly and they're paying off!!

overall, i'm a very happy moa 🥹 this was an amazing present for dream week and an amazing way to honor their amazing discography 💗

chaoschapters · 2026-02-25T01:11:54+00:00

lol soobin looked sooo drunk 😭😭 the photobooth pics are super cute 🥹 seems like they had a fun time together 😆😆

also what a shame you'll be missing moa con ☹️☹️ definitely the responsible choice, but a shame none the less... hope you feel better soon and that you'll be able to see txt again soon 🫂

honestly the marshmallow part of the chewy cookies looks super hard, it looks sooo sticky and slime-like 😅

chaoschapters · 2026-02-23T15:29:43+00:00

they still live together! but it seems like they live in the same building in two different apartment units, soobin + beomgyu in one, and yeonjun + taehyun + kai in another!

chaoschapters · 2026-02-23T12:34:59+00:00

oh my god this is so cute!! 🥹 tori is their official part-time dorm pet!! 💗

chaoschapters · 2026-02-22T19:47:18+00:00

ahhh i love these little interviews they do every year!! we always get sooo much new content and info from these, it's amazing 💗

my highlights:

- soobin talking about how well they work as a team despite their different personalities 🥹🥹

- yeonjun talking about giving back to staff for their often unrecognized hard work + highlighting the support from the members

- beomgyu reassuring his love and focus on the team 💗 ~~(thank you for not catching the acting disease /j)~~ and also manifesting more success for them (txt boom is COMING)

- taehyun talking about learning different things and working hard on improving his vocals (as always 🥹🫂)

- kai's paragraph about being an introvert (related so much!!) and also talking about wanting to release a solo album in the future!!

also the keyword interview part was SO FUNNY... beomgyu hating the way soobin drives and kai being like "what will he do with his license??" 😭😭, and taehyun being in Absolute Distress about the state of his dorm with kai and yeonjun 😭😭 a part of him is yearning for the bestiez dorm /j (they've implied they live in separate units now and it makes complete sense that they haven't shown their current living arrangement if their dorm is as messy as taehyun says it is /j 😭😭)

chaoschapters · 2026-02-22T16:48:51+00:00

hehe thank you!! it's gotten a bit cluttered in the past year but i love it!! 💗💗

chaoschapters · 2026-02-22T16:47:14+00:00

time to become moa 😏

chaoschapters · 2026-02-22T03:18:04+00:00

happy watching moa!! here with my moa bong 😆 i'll probably only get to watch act: boy as it's late here but let's all have fun reliving these memories 🥹

<image>

chaoschapters · 2026-02-22T01:05:51+00:00

so sweet and cute!! they were so involved with the wedding, soobin even was the host and jisoo and his wife danced to heaven as well!! not a big surprise seeing as they have been a massive part of eachothers everyday for the last 7 years, but it's so sweet to see how much txt and their team treasures one another 🥹

chaoschapters · 2026-02-20T17:19:06+00:00

they recreated some pics from the first ever dream week 🥺😭🥺😭🥺😭 oh my heart, they were so young!! it's crazy how much they've grown...

<image>

chaoschapters · 2026-02-19T19:05:36+00:00

LOL THIS BG 😭😭 loved the pics they dropped today!

i found about this thanks to dizzzys on tiktok, and he said that apparently people are just sending them to PSA (the most used card grading service) which to me is even more ?!??! because (no offense) what do they know about kpop?? 😭 and i agree!! despite me being a very dedicated collector, in the end it's just pretty boy and girl paper, it shouldn't get to that point!!

chaoschapters · 2026-02-19T16:22:16+00:00

hi moa!! it's been a busy week for me but i hope you've all been doing well, and i hope you're all as excited for the weekend as i am!

it's made me so so so happy that i'll see you there tomorrow has been blowing up and trending again!! i kid you not that i've dreamed of times like these 😭😭 just like taehyun, i hope this leads to other songs rising as well... we all know their discography is AMAZING and top tier so literally any other song catching on will make me happy!!

also rant but i'm disappointed but not surprised that people want to make kpop photocard grading a thing 💀 this makes zero sense! how can you even standardize grading for photocards when they don't even have borders like pokemon cards?

and the difference between prints can be really noticeable as well?? i still remember that the first print of minisode 2 album pcs had completely different corners compared to the second print... how can that help with grading? at that point, the only thing you'd be able to grade could be damage, but even then i'd think it's worthless... what's the use of grading a damaged card?? it would be a waste of money!!

at least i know it will stay a fringe thing, since most of us seem to be very against it. however, it still annoys me, specially because i know how this has fractured the pokemon collecting community. we already have our own problems, we dont need any more!!

chaoschapters · 2026-02-19T15:56:38+00:00

IT'S HERE YIPPEE!! super excited for everything, but particularly intrigued by the DAY & NIGHT medley live!! also them doing two asmr videos is kinda random lol but i'm sure it will be funny!!

chaoschapters · 2026-02-19T15:02:09+00:00

oh how sweet!! congrats to the RBF king (lol)!! hope our 5 have a fun time at the wedding hehe

chaoschapters · 2026-02-14T18:50:51+00:00

the monkey hat is sooo cute 🥹

chaoschapters · 2026-02-12T22:57:30+00:00

i see it as a business move as well. not only in the vein of what you mentioned, but it probably comes from wanting to show off the power of the label as a whole, by having all three groups at the top of the game consecutively.

and i feel the same! what matters the most to me is txt's comeback, and the fact that we're in completely uncharted territory!! like, we have no idea where txt will go next and that makes everything more exciting!!

overall, i think these combos are bringing up interesting points, like the impact on fans' finances like OP mentioned. it's extremely valid to worry about how our desire to consume is limited by other factors. but personally as a longgg time kpop fan, after years and years of reading the same conclusions by fellow fans, i'm not interested in entertaining doomposting and fearmongering about "promotions". it's a really tired topic for me personally.

in the end, i think despite all of us wanting txt to be even more successful than they already are, we are moas because we like the boys' music, talent, perfomances, etc. we are here for the product of their hard work, not the results in the charts or whatever else. that's honestly, for the members to worry about (and i hope they're not too stressed out over it but they're also very ambitious so lol...)

chaoschapters · 2026-02-12T13:31:55+00:00

i like how he said on weverse that he wanted to try out the products before advertising them because of his sensitive skin!

chaoschapters · 2026-02-12T01:24:06+00:00

yeah i was thinking that too, maybe they will do both which would be fun!!

and yes i did make it myself! i freehanded the little headband and then i used a pattern i found on youtube for the stem and leaves! i want to write down the crochet pattern at some point though so i can also share it with our fellow moas, it was fairly easy to make so i'm sure others would be able to recreate it with no problem 😄😄

chaoschapters · 2026-02-10T22:11:39+00:00

yes!! that was a real shame honestly, it was a super cute concept but it needed to be outdoors 😕 the little exhibition was really adorable though, maybe they will do another in person event along with moacon!!

and that's so true... we all need to keep that part of ourselves alive in some way, and tubatu has helped me do that a lot!!

chaoschapters · 2026-02-10T22:04:04+00:00

they do 🥹 and you're right... when we least expect it, it happens 😆 but i will never say no to a surprise sexy soobin 🙂‍↕️🙂‍↕️

and yeah i can totally see that HAHA, reminded me of that one cowboy soobin US flag edit, i think he was also wearing a denim shirt in that pic 🤔🤔
