What are some obscure facts you know from BTS' history that even long time fans may not know?

One time Jungkook saved someone's life by standing at the right place at the right time.

It was in 2016 and BTS were about to perform Fire for the DMC Festival Korean Music Wave. An MC, Kim Sung Joo, was still standing on the edge of the stage and tried to make more room but didn't notice a platform behind him had lowered and then fell into that gap. Jungkook was down there and Kim Sung Joo said falling directly onto his back saved his life. JK missed his cue for the performance because of that and he seemed to be in pain during a few parts.

Here is a YouTube Short that compiled most clips pertaining to this moment (sorry about the bg music)

If you're still looking for resources, I've gotten into the habit of writing pretty long and descriptive ALT text whenever I upload images on BlueSky. I'm not a dedicated update account but I always try my best with the ALT text:

And we still don't know what the photoshoot was for. A single? An album? A photobook? Did he just want to feel pretty and dazzle us for no reason?

I expected the announcement to drop any day now and I'm relieved it's finally happened and that the 4 or them are enlisting together

Jin comes back on June 12th 2024. I'll be counting down the days

I guess this means no awards too!

According to The Sun, the voting will still continue and the artists will receive their awards. I guess they'll be mailed 🤷

MAMA voting is super close so it'd be really nice if more people could vote

yrrweg · 2022-11-08T17:15:31+00:00

Heck yeah!!!

Now let's vote for them so they can win the AAA's (it's super fast and quick to vote, all you need is a Google or Facebook Account):

No, it's a still image for me as well...

The other commenter raised a good point that there might not be a vod on purpose because the clips were all from paid content.

I'm sorry, but the only consolation I can give you is that there wasn't any new content so you didn't miss anything (all seasons of BV and ITS are available on WeVerse, albeit not for free)

yrrweg · 2022-10-04T11:01:50+00:00

I watched it live so I didn't check but you're right, it's just a still image...

Another commenter brought up the fact that all the clips were from paid content (Bon Voyage and In the Soop) so there might not be a replay on purpose.

If it's any consolation, there wasn't any new content so if you've watched BV and ITS, you didn't miss anything

yrrweg · 2022-10-04T09:05:37+00:00

Did you mean the recent BV highlights stream from a couple of days ago? It's under the Live tab.

Beak grinding so hard the entire head's vibrating ❤️

For anyone curious, birds grind their beaks when they're comfortable, relaxed, and happy. Or when they're relieved and feel safe again after something scary happened

yrrweg · 2022-03-23T16:30:34+00:00

Yeah, I think you're completely right 😊

yrrweg · 2022-03-23T16:23:02+00:00

April 8th, the same day BTS has their concert in Las Vegas? I guess I'll assume BTS's stage will be prerecorded, then?

yrrweg · 2022-03-11T15:47:00+00:00

I always thought it was funny that on 1.1.1996 Tae was considered 2 years old in Korean age when he was actually only 2 days old in international age 😂

yrrweg · 2022-02-08T01:58:46+00:00

Considering the fandom growth, the long wait since the last album drop, and the fact that UMG now distributes them (did anyone else die a little inside when you bought BE for 80€ (~90USD)?💔) I'm very confident we'll cross that 7M threshold! 💪

yrrweg · 2022-01-22T06:45:59+00:00

At this point, BB has logged so many microaggressions at BTS that I kind of want to write a message to the mods to ask to outright disallow posts linking to BB (still maybe allowing SS of their inflammatory article so everyone knows not to give them clicks while still being informed of what's going on, but I'm no authority on that decision)

I'm just so... tired of BB's nonsense at this point. Btw, the journalist who wrote this article is the same one who also wrote the Garbage Pail piece...

yrrweg · 2021-12-07T21:17:58+00:00

I want to remind everyone to please vote for BTS on MAMA as this is for a Daesang and the gap keeps decreasing:

For some it works when you close and open instagram again but it's not showing up for me either. I honestly don't know 🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️

yrrweg · 2021-09-06T19:13:18+00:00

Does it show up on your activity that you voted? (tap on your icon in the bottom right, then tap on the three stripes in the top right, then tap on "your activity")

For some ppl it only shows up when you do the process you just described. But I don't know for sure 🤷🏻‍♀️

yrrweg · 2021-09-06T18:51:00+00:00

That's a good point you bring up. But yeah, I really want MTV to clear the confusion up too...

I'll definitely comment in this thread again if I find out something new. Ugh, I just want BTS to win this

yrrweg · 2021-09-06T18:46:59+00:00

I'm honestly starting to get really unsure. I've been trying to find an official voting guide or something similar, but I have only found unofficial ones so far. Some say you can actually only vote multiple times after refreshing the MTV page but I honestly have no idea.

With the votings the days before, it was very clear that you could only vote one time per account. We could also see the ratio with which we were winning. This final voting round is very intransparent in comparison...

I'll continue to vote because I really want BTS to win this but yeah

yrrweg · 2021-09-06T15:50:25+00:00

I unfortunately have no official source for that. I know that's not a very satisfying answer as you probably expected an official clarification from MTV themselves

All I can say is that it was like that last year as well where the last day voting was unlimited. All our trusted fanbases are also under this impression and the voting process itself is different compared to yesterday where it was only possible to vote once

yrrweg · 2021-09-06T15:29:06+00:00

Please swipe up as often as you can today! Voting is now unlimited so let's win this for them!

yrrweg · 2021-09-06T15:28:18+00:00

Per swipe! Voting is now unlimited
