๐ฅ armys might...not know? or know it well? if someone who isn't army, isn't one of our members, doesn't know him personally were to go, "oh yoongi seems pretty hyped today", then that means yoongi hyung was reaally in a good mood
๐ฅ you know what i mean, right?
๐ฅ when yoongi hyung is in a reeally good mood there are those subtle tells.. like he'll walk out toward the front more...
๐ฅ during ment, he'll step forward more
๐ฅ on days when he's low-energy he mostly stays where he is ใ ใ ใ ใ ใ ใ
๐ฐ and today he was a little more out in frontใ ใ ใ
๐ฅ that's right ใ ใ ใ ใ ใ ใ ใ ใ ใ ใ ใ ใ
The OG army, I feel so happy for you all to hear daeng and magic shop.. and Iโm also so happy to hear it again on this day. Happy BTS day ๐ฅน๐ฅน๐๐
I'll be honest, as someone who has professionally helped organise large-scale events, the issues being reported from Day 1 of Arirang in Busan (12 June 2026) don't point to failures by BTS or BigHit/HYBE. Instead, they appear to be failures in venue operations, crowd management, and local event execution.
Based on what we've seen from attendees, the primary failures appear to sit with:
โข Government representatives
โข Venue management
โข Local event organisers
โข Security contractors
Reports from the timeline include:
โข Significant delays getting attendees into the venue
โข Poor crowd management and queue control
โข Gift distribution that appears to have been poorly planned
โข Technical issues with NOL FacePass verification
โข Reports of inadequate medical staffing, equipment, and emergency response resources
โข Poorly managed entry points
โข Reports of unprofessional conduct from some security staff towards attendees
โข Public transport operating on normal schedules despite the event running significantly late
โข Traffic police directing attendees away from the venue while tens of thousands of people were simultaneously attempting to access buses, trains, taxis, and rideshares
โข Insufficient transport and crowd-dispersal planning for the volume of people leaving the stadium at once
Having attended Yet To Come in 2022, I still remember how difficult it was to leave the venue. At one point, the crowd density became high enough that I was genuinely concerned about crowd crush. That's why transport planning and crowd dispersal aren't minor operational details - they're critical safety measures.
BigHit/HYBE are renting the venue and producing the show, but venue operations, crowd control, security staffing, emergency services, transport coordination, and infrastructure are often managed locally through the venue, local organisers, contractors, and government agencies.
What stands out to me is that if this level of operational dysfunction were primarily a BigHit/HYBE issue, we'd expect to see similar problems at BTS concerts everywhere. Instead, we continue to see recurring concerns associated with this specific venue and its management.
Unfortunately, BigHit/HYBE are the most visible organisation attached to the event, so they're often the first to receive criticism when something goes wrong. However, based on the issues being reported, many of these failures fall within the responsibilities of venue management, local event organisers, security providers, transport coordinators, and government agencies.
As someone who has worked on large-scale events, I think it's important that accountability is directed at the parties actually responsible for each aspect of event delivery. Not every operational failure at a BTS concert is automatically a BigHit/HYBE failure, particularly when the same concerns continue to emerge around the same venue and local management structures.
Magic Shop (2019) - Busan wouldn't allow BTS to use the main stadium for Muster.
Yet To Come (2022) - Busan initially wanted to hold the concert in an open field with nowhere near the infrastructure required to support an event of that scale. While others were focused on the economic benefits, ARMY were the ones raising concerns about safety, accessibility, transport, and crowd management. We made enough noise that the issue became impossible to ignore, and Busan Asiad Main Stadium ultimately became the alternative venue.
Unfortunately, the stadium itself was poorly maintained, with entire exterior panels missing from the structure.
On concert day, entry delays were so severe that BTS had to abandon their planned drive around the stadium because ARMY were still trying to get inside even into the 3rd song.
Arirang (2026) - The concert start was delayed by approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes because organisers once again couldn't get ARMY into the stadium on time because... who the fuck knows this time...
At this point, Busan and BTS concerts are developing a history............
Come one hybe, you expect army to queue under the hot sun? Thereโs no signage for express line for the lightstick. So everyoneโs just queuing blindlyโฆ
For Jung Yong Hwa, the Telecaster is another voice in his band, allowing him to explore a variety of genres and express what canโt be conveyed through singing alone. The vocalist and guitarist of the South Korean band CNBLUE shares why the Tele is the best guitar. Watch the full video: https://t.co/CefSrX7rV7
Army, curious question. The gold card BTS army membership - what else can we get besides that letter? Iโm grateful but I was expecting maybe more gold class privilege ๐ฅฒ๐ซ
