I'm not sure why is BH releasing one thing after another with no breaks in between. Why do they have to hurry? I agree that the fandom can't focus on many things at once and if there's something new coming out, they pay less attention to stuff that came out earlier. When the game dropped more people talked about the game than Hobi debuting solo. We had high expectations when we heard the members were going to release solo albums, one of them even mentioned they would be promoted but Jack in the box is treated no different from rapline's mixtapes. I really hope BH can change their ways with the next solo album. As for the collab, I'm excited but also shocked that rapline is not participating..

I hope the management takes care of Enhypen issue because I feel bad for Sunoo. Even the fandom is against those who are on his side. They tease him and ask to eat it but he knows they'll laugh at him if he does it Sunoo had health problems predebut and they dare to make fun of his weight and tease him when he wants to eat something? They're terrible people.

I don't think Jennie would have scenes like that, YG wouldn't allow it. I've seen the trailer today and I'm not sure how big her role is.

Theme wise it feels like a follow up to Wannabe. I expected more after their long break. Wannabe remains my favourite track.

We had many discussions about "overrated" groups on forums but with Aespa I truly don't know why people choose to stan them and buy their albums. They don't look like idols who were ready to debut when you watch their stages outside music shows.

1. [+294] This is actually really scary, why is he being like this? Can you imagine if a currently popular male idol was going around acting like this? He would've been kicked out of the industry already. 2. [+221] There must be something really charming about Jennie 3. [+74] It's not only female celebrity videos he's been liking but also GD x Seungri Instagram posts for a few months now. GD fans thought he was hacked at first but he's been doing this for months so GD fans have been trying to make up explanations saying he didn't know there were Seungri pictures in the middle of the clips but GD has been liking a whole bunch of posts and videos about Nyongtori (ship name), as well as posts supporting Big Bang as 5 (including Seungri). Fans were first aware of this around May 28th but what's shocking is that it's been months and he's still pressing like on posts about 5Bang and Nyongtori. 4. [+156] I'm really worried about GD... I wish he'd move on and stop this behavior... 5. [+32][ Leave our Jennie alone ㅠㅠㅠ 6. [+119] At this rate, Jennie needs to file for personal protection and leave YG. This is too scary for her to ignore. 7. [+377] This is my first time seeing a male celebrity actually like one of those delusional fanmade videos 8. [+90] Stop stalking Jennie and please leave her alone, GD-ya 9. [+52] And this is why you shouldn't go on Instagram when you're drunk 10. [+150] If you think about it, this is hilarious ㅋㅋㅋ He claims he won't confirm relationships out of respect for his partners but he acts all obvious like this with the follows, unfollows, liking posts, acting clingy... what about this is acting considerate? 11. [+26] Wow, this is scary... 12. [+46] GD needs stability in his life. He needs to stop looking for partners in the celebrity industry and just date someone reserved out of the spotlight. 13. [+103] ...? Why is he like this... He was way cooler backw hen he was on 'Infinity Challenge' ㅠ please stop this... 14. [+108] I'm suspecting if he has a mental illness at this point? 15. [+188] And now the puzzle pieces of why they broke up are starting to fit 16. [+92] He needs to delete his SNS... this is just sad.. 17. [+28] Gross 18. [+31] Maybe he's lonely 19. [+23] Scared he's going to do something to Jennie 20. [+30] This is unsightly ㅠㅠ Source: Netizenbuzz I just went and confirmed itㅋ He liked the videoㅋ what's worse is that the video was only uploaded 17 hours agoㅋㅋ 1. [+110, -12] Seriously, why is GD like that? 2. [+89, -17] Seriously, Jennie is pitiful. GD should quit SNS a bitㅋㅋㅋ Because of GD, Jennie is getting accused of cheating 3. [+77, -5] I don't know why he liked it but he also liked shipping contents of him and Sandara Park "A few days ago, GD also liked a picture of Dara. This obsessive man is trying to gain power over a woman. Your daughter was with this man yesterday. Stop this" 4. [+44, -2] Just imagine Jennie or V doing this.. They would've been plastered in the news, on YouTube rumor channels and would've been hated on every community website. GD sure has a comfortable life 5. [+34, -3] He's almost a retired senior singer but the other party is a female idol in her prime days. He fully knows that him following or liking something on his private account would've already made it to the news so seeing him doing this makes me view him as a nuisance and nothing more. I liked him for a while but I lost all interest in him... he's too selfish 6. [+34, -21] I find Jennie's fans self insert in her even funnierㅋㅋ they call her pitiful all the timeㅋㅋ 7. [+34, -35] Oh so he's back with Jennie??? V escaped??? Source: Pannchoa This post says: "There's no one else who looks at Seungri like GD looks at him" and GD liked it The post shipping him with Dara show the artists' "wedding" and yet he had no problem liking it, feeding delusional shippers.

I wish I could help but this is the only tweet with photos of his friends I found and (obviously) their faces are covered so I can't tell who's who I know the meaning behind Taehyung's solo song was discussed many times here. In a new video Jimin chose the track as his favourite track from BTS discography.

True But I wouldn't call them Armys, Taekook shippers that are the most hardcore don't care about the group at all. If they found out that Jungkook or Taehyung dated someone they would stop supporting them in a moment. I always see threads of Taekook shippers to report made by Army. They are treated like people who need help. It's funny that I found out about fans spamming models Taehyung interacted with and one of the models liking tweets about Tae from this thread and not from Twitter. Anyway, I feel second hand embarrassment when I see what fans are doing.. Armys love making hit tweets about how mature they are, saying they would accept the boys' relationships right away but some of them can't handle selcas at the party! Editing my post because I wanted to add a part of his recent interview I found interesting. I saw these pics earlier and was sure it was his older aunt or something

Thank you, added. I also added all Le Sserafim members and their group account.

I agree with you. Me and my friends also felt something was off and we didn't know if we were paranoid but it seemed that members were tired/burn out. I had a hard time watching In The Soop and I felt like In The Soop without cameras on would be better for BTS. Today in a Weverse interview Jimin revealed that he also didn't feel okay recently and even mentioned wanting to show a different, raw side of himself through his future music. He said members tried to make him feel better. All fans noticed that he wasn't active on Twitter last year. I'm glad that BTS could express their thoughts through this video and say what many fans have been thinking about their recent music. You could see they needed to get rid of the burden of not having inspiration.

It's possible and I can see some younger Armys falling for it and stanning them. It's interesting but company stanning reached the most hardcore levels among US fans. They're the ones who believe in stuff like 'We need to support Big Hit's groups because BTS also make money off it' and think Hybe can't do nothing wrong. What's also interesting is that these fans usually never followed a Korean group before so they tend to idealize Hybe as a company and claim they don't think about profits. I can see why Hybe would try everything to make 'another BTS' because the stockholders demand money and the company needs to persuade the public that they can go on without BTS as a group.

Garam: Mhm mhm mhm mhm I'm fearless, ha!

SUGA: “I hope they’re excited for everything so I can give their life meaning each and every day” SUGA from BTS, SUGA the producer, SUGA as Agust D. And they all make music. How does it feel listening to “Born Singer,” BTS’ first mixtape song, which is now included on Proof? SUGA: First of all, I didn’t even know if it could be included on the album. I wasn’t even sure it would be possible, since the original song is so famous, but J. Cole gave us permission. I want to tell him how grateful I am. It’s a song I only could have written back then. I still remember writing it during the first and second weeks we were promoting “No More Dream.” The emotions I felt during that debut time will all evaporate over time, so I had to write it then or never. I even thought about rerecording it since it’s a little over the top looking back, but the intention behind it would be lost if I did. So we just put it in since it wouldn’t be possible to listen back on this period of ours unless it was in a concert. And there might be some ARMY who don’t even know that the song exists. We felt like a lot of who we are went into the song, so we unanimously agreed that it should be included. The new song “Run BTS” is another fast rap song, like “Born Singer,” but with a different feel to it. SUGA: It’s a little bit different emotionally. “Born Singer” made me emotional—it’s got a fair bit of emotion in it. For “Run BTS,” we kept saying we wanted to try doing a song in our older style, so we chose a title that both shares its name with our variety show and reflects who we are—always running. All the members have come a long way, and there’s times when we’re exhausted but there’s also things we want to do moving forward, so I think we tried to include those desires as well. And I really didn’t have many opportunities to show off my rap skills on our recent albums. So it made me think of the past, which made me want to write something a little tighter, but rapping it was really difficult. (laughs) We got it recorded quickly, but it had been a long time for me, so I really had to work at it when we were recording. (laughs) And in your transition from “Born Singer” to “Run BTS,” you made it all the way to the Grammys. SUGA: We actually practiced really hard. (laughs) We’re not going to do that kind of performance again for quite a while. We had a part that involved clothes and there was a dance break in the middle, too. The process of getting ready was extremely hectic, too: Seokjin got hurt, and Hobi and Jung Kook were in quarantine, so there were times when it was just four of us. It was an experience I won’t soon forget. And the directors were really enthusiastic about the performance. So it was a bit stressful getting ready … but I guess it was also sort of fun, looking back now. The performance went off without a hitch anyway. The part of the performance involving our clothes kept not working out, including during the rehearsal the day before, so I thought we must have had some kind of luck because it ended up going fine on the day regardless. Whenever we try to do something like that, we typically always fail. (laughs) Viewers wouldn’t realize it, but we talk about it a lot between ourselves, so we were really worried, but fortunately it all turned out in the end. What is it like retracing your memories from a producer’s perspective? “Seesaw (Demo Ver.)” is very different from the originally released version. SUGA: It’s totally different, isn’t it? I like this version better. (laughs) I had such a hard time working on it. I was in such a bad slump that I had said I would just get a song from somebody else if I couldn’t come up with anything in the end. I felt like I didn’t even want to make a song, but it came to me quickly. I didn’t feel like working on anything; I was just messing around on the piano, knowing I had to do something, when I thought, This melody’s not bad at all, and I ended up making it really quickly. It’s a so-called Shibuya style song, which is a style I personally was into when I was young, and the label reacted to it favorably, too, but they had suggestions for me about working on the arrangement a bit more, so I redid the arrangement. The version that’s getting released now is an instrumental containing a lot of the sentiments I felt in middle school. Sentiments you felt in middle school? SUGA: I loved instrumental versions of songs by my favorite artists when I was younger. I would analyze them a lot and dreamed of becoming a producer. It used to have guide vocals as well, but I asked them to take them out. The guide vocals were too hastily sung. (laughs) But when I actually wanted to put the song on the album I couldn’t find the file with the original source for mixing the song. So I went as far as to try and remake it exactly the way it was before, but it didn’t really have the same feel. (laughs) So I said to myself, I have to find this, and then when I was in LA or New York last year, I asked them to hook up all the old PCs and laptops I had sitting around in Seoul and find it, and they finally did. It turned out the second computer I used and the third one looked exactly the same and I couldn’t find it because I wasn’t looking on both of them, just the same computer every time. (laughs) You really went and dug up an old memory. How did you go from being a middle school student who dreamed of becoming a producer to actually becoming one? “Seesaw (Demo Ver.)” isn’t done in a style that’s popular with many people in Korea, either. I was wondering what kind of changes you went through from then till now. SUGA: When I was young, I wanted to be a rapper, and I wanted to be a producer, and now I can do both of those any way I want, so I’m doing it all, one by one. That’s also why I use several different names: I wanted to keep them separate. He can do this, too? He can do that, too? He can do music for ads, too? It was just lucky I could meet so many fantastic artists as SUGA the producer, so I think I’m really fortunate to be building a career in that sense. What sort of influence did working on “My Universe” with Coldplay have on you? Chris Martin came all the way to Korea to record with you, for one. SUGA: At first I was like, Why is he coming here? (laughs) I mean, with the pandemic, it might have been better to record separately and send them over that way. And I love Coldplay’s music, but I didn’t really know what kind of life Chris Martin has led. But we met, and we talked, and he really wasn’t any different from us. He really related with me when we talked about everyday life and concerns. I realized that all artists who do stadium tours face similar hardships. It was nice knowing I could be friends with someone like him. I feel like you and PSY influenced each other through “That That (prod. & feat. SUGA of BTS).” We already knew you were producing and featuring on the song, but you had a lot of screen time in the music video, too. (laughs) SUGA: I was just going to write the song and dip out, but then he said, “You have experience featuring on other songs, don’t you?” I was like, “Featuring could be okay …” And I did it. Then he said it would be a bit weird if I wasn’t in the music video, and said, “Just try it once and see how it goes,” and I said, “I’ll just do the verse and be off,” and the next thing I know, I’m dancing, too. (laughs) He showed me the rough version and said, “Only do it if you like what you see,” so I did it, and I thought it was fun since it was so much different from his previous choreography. I did the music video purely for all the ARMY watching. (laughs) PSY’s style is very distinct, so how did you end up working with him? It’s an interesting collaboration. SUGA: Exactly. That’s what I wanted! I’ve worked on a lot of different songs as a producer, but non-ARMY mainly know the well-known ones, and those are usually the ones by people like IU or Heize so I think they feel like the songs have similar vibes. But I had a song from before that I wanted to have included on an album but couldn’t, and I thought it would be a good match for PSY from the outset. So PSY became your client. What specifics did he ask for? SUGA: At first I just wanted to give the song to him, but he had a few requests, so I redid the arrangement and that was the beat you hear today. That process of back-and-forth was really fun. At first I decided I would just play it for him, and if he didn’t like it, I’d just let it go, but PSY said that he had been working on music for 22 years and now he needed some young blood, and said he wanted to do the song. I think we both found the experience fun. No matter how hard he tried to keep his style out of it, the parts he wrote have his fingerprints all over them. (laughs) It was interesting how the track is different from PSY’s usual style, but you can feel he brought his unique style into it anyway. SUGA: I wrote the verses and the hook that goes, “that that I like that,” which feels typical of my style, and then I put in a rap part for the people who are going to listen to the song since it’s been two years since I released D-2. Because I wanted to give them something that sounded similar to my mixtapes. But the melody that PSY wrote was just a straight-up PSY song. (laughs) We divided up the labor and wrote separately, but I learned a lot from him. It was an entirely different production experience for me; there was something about his attitude when making music that resonated with me. A producer has to meet a client’s needs when making music, which leads to music that expands on and diverges from your personal work. SUGA: That’s the way I’m most comfortable with. I have the hardest time making my own stuff. (laughs) You have to come up with something, and asking yourself what you want to say with it is really challenging. I had trouble organizing my thoughts in the past because there were so many things I wanted to say, but now I think it’s not knowing what to say that makes it difficult. In fact, other than game music or music for ads, I would only do outside projects with people who had requests and would insert their own individual opinions. You definitely get inspiration and synergy from that. You produced “Stay Alive” for the soundtrack to the webtoon 7FATES: CHAKHO. What’s your approach to working on music for a soundtrack? That song is very OST-like. SUGA: For me, when I’m doing outside projects, I always tailor it to the client, so for that song I put the client first and made sure to think of it as a soundtrack song. I get that you have to tailor the work to the track, but whether or not it ends up working is a whole different story. (laughs) SUGA: I always keep that in mind while I’m working. I think I tend to look at the big picture, since I’m the one who builds the framework and fleshes it out. Anyway, the content the song is for is the most important part, so the song has to be good no matter what. So I made every effort to produce that song. And I purposely wrote the lyrics for “Stay Alive” a little over the top, and I checked out the webtoon and the related content and used grammar I don’t normally use. The song’s composition is also very intriguing. There’s a solemn, dark atmosphere similar to that often found in other OSTs, then it shifts to a style reminiscent of the Weeknd, and the part where Jung Kook sing-raps over your trap beats. It seems like you captured the characteristics of different styles and put them all into one song in a way that makes sense. SUGA: Since I was young, anytime I was writing a song, I thought about arrangement a lot. I look at a track as one big mass. When it comes to the arrangement of the instruments that I used in the first verse, the instruments in the chorus and the instruments that come in after the second verse, some of them remain the same but at the same time I tried to keep changing their arrangement. There are quite a few instances where I changed the arrangement of the instruments more frequently than usual. I don’t know that anybody even notices (laughs) but I tend to be very detailed about that. Pop songs are shorter in length nowadays and it isn’t easy to add changes as far as the arrangement goes within such a short timeframe. I try to do this and that within that space. I’ll try changing the source, changing the rhythm in the middle or inserting elements that make it more interesting for people who listen closely. The music I grew up with had all kinds of changes to its sources, even for songs with the same hip hop beat. It’s too bad about the new way, but I try to pay closer attention. People got to know you first as a rapper in BTS, but you’ve also grown as a producer. SUGA: Yes, fortunately. Lately I’ve been thinking about how I don’t know what kind of music I should do when I get older, and that maybe I should try a few different styles now. (laughs) I think this is both a blessing and a curse, but I think that, while I’m able to work in various genres, I’m not sure any of them are that deep. That’s why I try to use many different styles and when I’m promoting my own material, I put in a lot of things I like, like surprises and twists. These days I started to want to do things again, too. And that brings me both worry and excitement. Would you say that your producer’s perspective also has an effect on your solo efforts, like your Agust D releases? SUGA: I think that, when I release an album as Agust D, that’s a solo work with solo promotions, and I feel like I should use the same system that regular groups do when they’re promoting and have a lead single and a B-side. I was thinking a lot recently that maybe I should shoot two music videos: one just there for the visuals, while the other is more focused on the listening experience. Ah, what should I do? I’m working hard on a follow-up to D-2. If we were to compare you to the lyrics of “Yet To Come” from Proof, you seem closer to still having a lot left to show than to, “the best moment is yet to come.” SUGA: I started to consider that my secret weapon from some point. I tried songs in various styles on D-2, too. I feel like I might not be able to become a master of one genre, but I can wear many hats. There’s still so much I want to do. I have no feel for what kind of music I’m going to be making in my 30s, 40s or 50s, but I want to keep doing music until the day I die. I’m someone who can wear many different hats, so I think I started to worry less when I think about what kind of music I’ll do after. (laughs) So then, what is it you want to give to ARMY and everyone else who listens to your music—while making music for your whole life? SUGA: I used to place a lot of importance on music—especially when I was young—but now I’m trying hard not to place too much meaning on it. It’s just the times we live in, for one thing, because at some point we became a generation for whom music is simply background music. I’m not saying that’s a bad thing. It’s a natural progression, and anyway, I thought there’s a difference between when a musician knows why they’re doing music or not. Here’s what I think: People who listen to my music—I mean, to a certain extent, I think being a fan of something is a must in life. You could be a fan of a person or a sport—whatever it’s about, I think being a fan is important because it makes life fun. Like feeling excited for the NBA playoffs as soon as you open your eyes in the morning. Some people are going to be excited for the day my music comes out and for me to perform. There aren’t a lot of things to be excited for in life. But for anyone who likes my music, I hope they’re excited for it—excited for when it comes out, excited for when I promote and excited for when I go on tour. I hope they’re excited for everything so I can give their life meaning each and every day. Source: Weverse

Joon's expressions and the way his voice broke - you can tell they were going through a hard time.

It's better than LGO, Dynamite and PTD but when are they finally let Suga produce? He would give BTS an unforgettable title track. It's always Pdogg or western producers..

Obligatory reminder that Henry entered Nana's room when she wasn't present to 'go through her stuff in the closet' and when Nana came back she even added she had underwear there.. source

It's been announced that BTS will be performing on music shows for 'Proof' promotions. They'll appear on Mnet Mcountdown, KBS Music Bank and SBS Inkigayo. There are many Army who have never experienced promotions on music shows and they ask: "What is Music Bank?" This will be a new experience for them for sure.

GD uploaded this on Insta today "Free like the clouds" V's Insta story a little earlier in the US "Let's go pick clouds" Why is he randomly picking clouds?ㅋㅋㅋ The daisy flowers too and the Chanel earrings yesterday too, I feel like V is provoking him all by himself post response: [+709][-181] original post: here 1. [+343, -61] OP is purposely omitting this while writing this post. V was the first one to upload the clouds he took on his Insta story. And then GD shared his on his feed. If you're a normal person, you'd think that saying, "Let's go pick clouds" as an extension of your Insta story. You wouldn't think that they wrote it to take a jab at anyone. Stop with the speculations and delusions. Seriously, I hope that people would stop criticizing others based on speculations that are treated like facts. You guys think that everything that V does is related to his dating rumor. V did nothing wrong (V: 14 hours ago GD: 13 hours ago) 2. [+318, -155] From an Army's perspective, I wish that V would stop Insta for a little while 3. [+259, -167] I automatically said "seriously, why is V acting like that?"ㅋㅋㅋ 4. [+167, -15] It's because that was his previous Insta storyㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ "Hello" 5. [+130, -9] Yup, Kim Taehyung uploaded his first. Also, stop tagging him with GD. F*ck 6. [+125, -9] V > GD that was the chronology. So then Jiyong is taking a jab at V? Stop with your delusions Source: [enter-talk] ISN'T V TAKING A JAB AT GD HERE? (pannchoa.com) This is never going to end

I'm not surprised that B.I and TOP fans on Twitter use this story as a way to prove that 'Han Seo Hee wasn't a saint herself' and to show men as her victims..

I bet his fans are crying right now Edit: His fans remain unbothered. It's impressive how big their "love" is

At least The Great Seungri will experience jail.
