  1. Fam you just reminded me about how I'm gonna see them in 22 days Lets die together tbh Are you going to the Sao Paulo date? Oh wow I topped. It's really late at night here and really need to sleep so I can't really go find anything rn, but good night?
  2. Hey, so does anyone know of a good textbook for self-study? Preferably something that has a workbook to go along with it? I've been pushing off Japanese a ton since high school kinda got in the way and I lost the structure that I needed (me stopping Japanese school, I mean (had to stop due to regular school )). But now that I'm better at managing time and more committed and determined, I want to pick up Japanese again and study on the weekends like I had been int he past. If it helps, I'm kind of in between beginner and intermediate level? Like I know how to make sentences and express myself in a basic manner, and I definitely know more than tourist survival Japanese. I've had to write a basic speech before for my class with basic kanji, hiragana, and katakana. I am very weak at vocabulary though, epsecially anything involving kanji.
  3. Guys kouseki no ame is such a cute song I'm bopping tbh Yass kween save the op with some flawless aesthetics Oh my god first time I saw this, I thought that this was such an A-chan type of thing for her to do. She seems like a bit of a klutz Also relatable because I break everything I touch The song still hasn't gown on me, but I really like the MV!
  4. Why are my children so extra? I don't get it, but I need friends like them in my life tbh
  5. Yassss at EXO speaking English. This might be way too far of a stretch, but I hope they all become decently fluent enough to not rely on a translator. I still remember how bad most of the North American translators were last year. The only good one was Chicago's and possibly Vancouver's...
  6. I've been meaning to do my Jin Appreciation Day post for the longest time but then ofc I got sick and then busy Now that I do have time... ---------------- Oh Jin. Kim Seokjin. Dad of all jokes. Literal dad. Dancing machine. Vocal god. Fallen angel. Where do I even start? He was my first true bias in BTS, and I don't even know why I was so attracted to him. He seemed like the typical idol in my eyes at first when I was just getting into Bangtan, and back then I wanted to be the weird fan that stanned the unusual and un-typical. But even now, even though I'm much more of just a general OT7 stan now (because actually choosing an individual bias in BTS specifically is the definition of pain and suffering), Jin is still a favorite to this day. As for reasons... I love Jin because... -His humor = It's dry and very, very dad-like, but those are the kind of jokes I fall for lol. His flying kisses always shoot straight into my soul. -His parent role in the group = No wonder fans call him Eomma Jin tbh. He takes care of each member not only with great cooking skills (and the fact that he used to drop Jungkook off at school, that's adorable), but he's always managed to keep them in high spirits and give them comfort as needed. Jin just seems like a very loving and caring person and people like him are who we need more of in the world. -His willingness to improve (and his improvement!) = As far as I've heard from the short time being in this fandom officially, Jin never wanted to be in a hip hop boy group, or really desired to be in an idol group in general? He really wanted to go into acting from what I recall. But even so, Jin took his chances, made the circumstances advantageous to him, and gradually began to improve himself. He used to hate dancing, for example. But nevertheless, when they were recording the Save Me MV, he insisted that they record one more time for a cleaner look on the dancing. And look at it now in the Not Today fancam! He looks great for someone that's part of the vocal department. -His looks = I know, very very subjective and typical but seriously, he is one of the best looking K-Pop idols I've laid my eyes on. Doesn't look too old nor too young, he can pull off both styles as needed. My favorite part of his would have to be his lips. Maybe its the flying kiss that sealed the deal for me, but I could stare at them all day. I want to put more reasons, but I'm going to a party soon
  7. BUT FAM I ALREADY BOUGHT VER. 1?????? Hopefully my mom will be willing to buy another set of lightsticks...?
  8. Firstly, congrats to EXO for their awards (btw EXO acting like dads in front of Sehun is what I live for) Secondly, I tried listening to Chanyeol and Junggigo's collab, but I've been hella sick since yesterday so it honestly gave me a headache. It gives me a headache to type to so idk why I've decided to post today I think I'll try it again once I'm better though but for now, I'm trapped on the living room couch watching fancams without sound and variety shows
  9. I'm actually shocked that they made it so high on the charts; the fact that they even made it on the charts is amazing. My expectations were super duper low, but oh wow. I got super sick yesterday (and hey! I'm still sick now ) so I didn't really use the computer and kinda just lurked OH until I got sleepy, but this is some great news to wake up to! So proud of the boys And about that radio campaign, I feel like if BTS got more airplay in America, the Hot 100 is on the horizon next time they have a full-fledged comeback. Hearing some Blood Sweat and Tears on my local radio would be cool.
  10. If Sehun is tryna tease tf outta the comeback and make us suffer then idk what to do
  11. Legit this looks like Seasons Greetings 2015 mixed with his Exodus teasers I am living this photoshoot is life So basically 1.) Xiuchen is pretty damn real 2.) He stans the queen Beyonce Such a blesst day, but srs tho is he trying to steal the No. 1 spot on my bias list again
  12. Personally, though it would be nice for BTS to reach the Hot 100, it's hard to do without airplay, streams, and a super big US fanbase. At most for airplay, BTS has only gotten one or two stations to play their song during BST era, and as far as I recall no radio station has played their songs ever for this comeback? As for the US fanbase, do we have a dedicated one? Yes. We have a super dedicated one. But do we have a huge one? As in Ed Sheeran, Adele, Justin Bieber, or Demi Lovato big? Not even close, and with how small our fanbase is in comparison, getting large amounts of streams is ridiculously difficult. Also consider that we don't have the general public's streams like the artists that I've listed have. The general public makes up a huge amount of streams and downloads, as the industry here is much less fan-powered compared to the K-pop industry. It definitely doesn't help that a lot of America preconceives all K-Pop artists as carbon copies of Psy and thus don't even give the music a chance. I don't even have high expectations for the Billboard 200 at this point. there's just too much competition, especially since the Grammys happened and everyone's gonna want to listen to the winners.
  13. why do I always forget to go on OH when something drops But oh my god y'all Not Today was amazing I legit couldn't stop staring at Taehyung that bandanna did wonders I still prefer Spring Day however. It's more my style, but Not Today is great as well I also found this on Tumblr and it reminds me of the gun move in the choreo http://caughtzipper.tumblr.com/post/157451993479/since-i-like-to-ruin-things-for-myself-lmfao-you (as a Madoka Magica fan and past vocaloid fan I want to s c r e a m at this vid) Oh look I topped. Happy (bandanna) Tae Day! (I want to die)
  14. lol do you want me to make one? I can do a hyyh pt. 1 vs pt. 2, or Dark & Wild vs Wings, or even worse put all their discography against each other
  15. I didn't backtrack because who got time to backtrack 100+ pages But yeah, I was watching Wings concert fancams throughout my (busy) day and stalked the shit out of the BTS tag on Twitter I don't even know what to say except how the fuck am I gonna survive seeing all of this live in a month?
  16. So, I usually don't care for charts all that much for a lot of groups. At most, I'll have one post of 'SLAYYYY KINGS" on one thread but seriously that used to be it. idk what BTS is doing to me this comeback, but I feel more invested and pumped to get them to chart higher this time. I'm even dusting off my old Spotify account from 2+ years ago for this AND I bought the new songs off of iTunes too. I also bought the physical album, but that'll contribute more to the Korean charts anyway. (btw I didn't know that ads only existed for the mobile version, because you can skip songs all you want on the desktop player like??? This is news to me. I always thought the desktop version operated like the mobile version but it honestly feels like I have premium on the desktop) I've just never seen a group get this much international exposure before, and I'm encouraged to keep the momentum going I guess? That's gonna be hard without any airplay, as other users have said. However, if we stream and get enough digital buyers, then we could probably get to the low 90s in the Hot100 or in the middle/end of the bubbling Under 100 Chart. tbh, I'm just gonna keep my expectations low so I don't get disappointed. Even keeping the hopes low for Billboard 200, especially since the Grammys happened. It's impressive enough that BTS is still in the Top 100 of the iTunes Charts amidst the post-Grammy rush
  17. Y'all I found my first post in the BTS thread Ironically, I hate American Hustle Life now it's a cringefest That show is the reason Boy In Luv got ruined for me Also how tf did I mix up Jungkook and Jin like they look completely different???
  18. alright guys that's it; I don't stan EXO anymore I stan Toben
  19. Alright, I've been wanting to talk about the whole YNWA album for a while. Consider this a review? I just feel such strong emotions for this album and I n e e d t o t a l k a b o u t i t n o w This is gonna be very long though, just saying. Also congrats to everyone that can attend the new concert dates! That Thailand one seems tempting for me though because my mom and I might go to Thailand during that time to see family, but y'know the more reasons the better But eh, I'm already going to the NY one, and I said might anyway, so I may as well give other armies the opportunity to see them.
  20. Ohai there, I haven't visited in ages. So sadly, Tokyo Girl isn't clicking for me, but as soon as I find somewhere where I can listen to the B-sides, imma definitely try those. the MV's aesthetics are so pretty though~ I love the outfits and A-chan looks so good The MV kinda reminded me of Bump of Chicken if you ask me though? In a good way ofc but still Specifically reminded me of this When Amuse decides to be an ass and blocks the vid
  21. holy shit THEY ARE? If they're coming in June then imma fly to Toronto for their concert screw NY tbh Still bitter that their NY concert's scheduled on a Tuesday two days after Spring break ends I'll gladly be Yixing's date tbh
