honestly this is making me kind of emotional bc bts is treating arirang w/ such love and respect (like she has all the acclaims to win but) by doing something like this just wow, you cannot tell me that they don’t care about the work they put out more than any award can represent
🐹 “we were fans of artists who speak the different languages from us but we didn't think differently of them because of that.”
🐹 “I was a fan of them and still am and I don't think a language is a barrier.”
btw when bts do sing in english, it's to reach YOU. The fan of BTS who dont understand kr. it's not to reach the GP or validation or for some stupid award, its a consideration they make to directly connect with ARMY so their words arent altered by unmoderated translations
okay but can we talk about how as soon as the ig stories dropped literally all of army immediately backed their decision even tho we were alr doing everything to prep 😭 this is what bts have built with army. complete faith in their decisions and belief in their artistry.
