i love owning CDs i love running my fingers through the spines of my album collection in my shelf and deciding which one to take out for the day i love the tangibility of having someone else’s hard work in my very own hands i love chronology and knowing what’s to come next i love

RM post:
Hello,
I’m writing this letter on a beautiful day after a long time.

I don’t particularly love the phrase “someone saves someone,” nor do I believe in it wholeheartedly, but, undeservedly, having occasionally heard such words as I've lived, I come to look back and wonder if I, too, wasn't saved by you.

I’m trying to live more simply, more plainly
or maybe more boldly than before.
The moments when I sink into sentiment have significantly grown fewer.

Still, the world remains sad, and I suppose that’s inevitable no matter how many joyful days there are. Perhaps, in truth, it’s because I’m so happy that it feels that way.

I’ve sent out so many words, and thrown so many sounds into the air. I don’t really know which melody, which little stone, has reached each of you standing here now, but I feel I’ll always be someone who keeps sending and throwing things out just as I did thirteen years ago, and will in the years to come.

As long as you are there, listening.

Making memories together, and consuming each year, one by one that makes me extremely happy, and I’m still so glad that I can shout out to someone (these words).

I see myself again and again through all of you.
Do you do so as well?

Thank you once more for being with us on this precious anniversary. Today is Saturday the 13th, an utterly beautiful day. Even if someone asks what that even means, I want to keep piling up,
in a corner of my heart, the memories and the days to celebrate that only we know.

I ask for your kind and continued care.
I Love You

[bts memeories⁷ @btsmemeories]

🐨: Everyone, a lot of time has truly passed, hasn't it? Honestly, it feels like just the other day when we were in our practice room working on "No More Dream" and "We Are Bulletproof Pt.2," but time has already flown by like this.
🐨: Things have changed a lot compared to the past. We worked hard in Korea, but then the time we spent staying abroad increased significantly. Our lyrics also started including a lot more English. There have been many changes like that. In the meantime, the K-pop industry itself has grown incredibly massive.
🐨: Lately, our junior artists often come to visit us and ask, "How do you keep the team together for so long?" They asked that before we went to the military, and they still ask it now. But honestly, I don't really know.
🐨: I think that through these six members, and through all of you who are here watching us, I have constantly been reflecting on myself. Unlike before, I don't really open up about my inner thoughts that easily, and I don't talk about my deepest feelings as much, but since it's been a while, I wanted to say this to you all.
🐨: Anyway, over the years, we've had Love Yourself, The Most Beautiful Moment in Life (Hwayangyeonhwa), Dynamite... so many things happened, all the way to Arirang. Earlier, while we were performing "Magic Shop," those 13 years flashed right past me like a kaleidoscope.
🐨: Regardless, it is truly such a great honor, and I am so grateful that we can be together like this. No matter where we are or what we look like, we will always do our absolute best and work hard to show you exactly who we are. So, I hope you will stay by our side for a very long time to come. Thank you so much. I love you! Thank you.

south korea and mexico on 2-0 and ma city & paldogangsan for festa d1 show. the only way from this point onwards is to play if i ruled the world (cup)

[R @compactdiscs]

surprised that nobody else but two other hiphopheads (i assume) have noticed this detail haha

[R @compactdiscs]

ppl not knowing this is from a 2pac song and jungkook is just a real one 😭 they don’t have a song called hip hop phile for nothing

[나비.97 (FAN) @jeongoldenlight]

Just Jungkook randomly saying Californiaa with his pretty singing voice. His melody is so lovelyyy ~~

[R @compactdiscs]

@warrbycolde this is so sweet steph :”) also i can attest to the idea that there are certain hooks and melodies in their songs that lingered in my brain after my first listen

[R @compactdiscs]

contrary to his experience; are there any hiphop/rnb/alt music fans here- like myself- who discovered bts via their pop songs yet continued to explore their discography despite the initial impressions? if so, i was wondering what has made you ‘not judge the book by its cover’

[varnellhill @varnellhill_]

Going through BTS chronologically has me realizing I never gave them a chance because of how they were presented to me…smh 🤦🏾‍♂️

[R @compactdiscs]

@dazzitan yes this is the exact same as what i went through and it was both skool luv affair and dark & wild that got me initially hooked - it would’ve been a massive disservice if i glossed over them for such superficial reasons so i’m glad my musichead self is naturally curious

[R @compactdiscs]

what goes around really comes around haha always interesting to see the exact same discussion topic be brought up with newcomers. i think the difference w my exp is it’s just in my nature to follow through a discovery and make a conclusion as to whether or not i fw something :”)

[R @compactdiscs]

btw i saw this debate a few days ago whether or not bts is a “kpop group” and i would like to voice out my thoughts abt this & say that they don’t exactly fit a particular description/genre & they are neither a kpop group nor a korean hip-hop group

[R @compactdiscs]

my origin story (despite friends telling me about them in passing in 2015) of how they appeared w/i my radar was the dna amas stage but what made me go a step beyond was encountering fascinating info (as below) at the time and then i listened to mic drop and the rest followed

[R @compactdiscs]

fun fact: i officially discovered bts’ music thru brockhampton when i saw a tweet abt how one of the members (jhope) have Gummy in their playlist & i instinctively thought “wOa the guy’s got taste” & ya here we are
