Logo Deck featured Shin Myungsup (신명섭), the South Korean brand consultant and creative director who is behind the BTS and ARMY logos and they had this beautiful piece written with the post! ⬇️
"The Door That Opens From Both Sides."
In 2017 BTS became the first Korean act to win a Billboard Music Award and was named by TIME among the 25 most influential people on the internet. That same year, Korean designer Shin Myungsup and his team at PlusX were brought in to rebuild the group's identity. The name was the first problem: Bangtan Sonyeondan, "Bulletproof Boy Scouts,' had been built around defending teenagers from prejudice, and the Korean wordmark read as something else entirely abroad.
Working from producer and member interviews, PlusX redefined the acronym as Beyond The Scene: youth that refuses to settle, stumbling and rising toward something further ahead. The symbol came directly from that sentence. Two angled planes open outward, a door caught mid-swing, with light breaking through the gap.
The clever part is the second mark. ARMY, the group's fandom, was given the same door drawn from the opposite side, seen by those waiting to welcome them through. Placed together, the two symbols close into a single opening. From there the studio proposed carrying the act of opening into every touchpoint: packaging that unfolds like a door, and a concert opening in which an enormous door parts and the members walk out of it.
Recognised at the iF Design Award, the German Design Award, A' Design Award and the IDEA Award, the identity found its real proof elsewhere. Fans began drawing their own versions of the mark, extending a system built to survive constantly changing album concepts.
One door, drawn twice. A symbol that completes only when someone is standing on the other side."
ok so I just found out my boyfriend already has Namjoon in his PokemonGo friends list?!!! he has the habit of adding people after raids, and they've been sending gifts to each other for 4 days now(counted their friendship lvl, 4 hearts after i opened the one Joon sent yesterday, you can only earn 1 heart max in a day, sending gift count as 1, opening gift also ct 1, so only need to do one or the other to grow your friendship lvl, miss or skip a day won't affect your current friendship lvl) so they probably added each other on the 2nd day before the concert😆Namjoon is probably trying to complete the Keldeo research task thats why he has it as his buddy......damnnn this just feel so unreal, any Army playing POGO?Wanna be friends?
