JIMIN doesn’t have to apologize for having female dancers in his choreos
JUNGKOOK doesn’t have to apologize for saying f*cking on his songs
NAMJOON doesn’t have to apologize for sharing a song he likes
JHOPE doesn’t have to apologize for how he chooses to release his album
@BorahaeEveryTwo No you’re not imagining it. I believe they’ve all received some kind of vocal training which, isn’t unusual. But more than that I think their solo projects helped a lot with them developing their own vocal capabilities and styles
A BTS family photo sounds so simple until you remember who they are to us.
Then suddenly it’s not “just a photo” anymore. It’s comfort. It’s longing.
It’s memories. It’s that soft, impossible feeling of seeing seven people together again..
Because ARMYs know exactly what that means.
The smiles. The standing together.
The feeling.That very specific ache in your chest when something beautiful is also a little overwhelming.
And for the ARMYs about to experience their first FESTA family photo in real time…
What a beautiful, devastating little moment that will be.🥹
I don’t think we’re ready for this at all.
Behind the scene ARIH development:
1. 3 years ago, BTS members themselves came up with the initial concept, saying, "Let's make the noodles and drinks we want to eat." It's not a simple collaboration. The members really created this from the very beginning.
2. The direction was clear. No spicy or stimulating flavors. It was a taste that harmoniously blended East and West while preserving Korean sensibilities. They wanted something that all global fans could enjoy.
3. All the members love carbonated drinks, but the guilt they felt every time they drank one was a problem. So, the goal was to achieve three things simultaneously: "It must be healthy, have a lively carbonation, and absolutely cannot taste bad." From the development team's perspective, this was truly a Mission Impossible, lol.
4. The same goes for caffeine. Since there was a member who couldn't drink coffee, they decided to go with natural caffeine, but finding ingredients that could get export approval to the U.S. was another battle.
5. All seven members were incredibly actively involved.
They contributed their opinions on every single detail, from the flavor and ingredients to the concept. They said that reaching a consensus was the hardest part, especially regarding the noodles, because all the members were experts in the field. But that is also the reason why they created such high quality.
6. After settling on the flavor, they spent three months just on the brand naming. The members strongly pushed for "ARI," taking inspiration from the 2.0 album title "Arirang," but 3 letters are unregisterable as trademarks. It reportedly took three months just to persuade them to change it to "ARIH" lol.
7. The design was no easy task either. Their standards as BTS artists were so high that proposals kept getting rejected. Eventually, the members personally created and submitted a design guide. That is why the flavor, name, and design are all BTS creations.
8. The members reportedly said they "would highly recommend Dual Soda to their parents." They also said they carry the noodles, soda, and energy drinks with them when they go on concert tours around the world.
9. They didn't make it just to sell it; they made it because they genuinely wanted to eat it themselves. That is the message that emerged from it: "We hope you like what we like, too."
10. This is why it is different from just any idol collaboration product. 3 years, 7 members, and they did everything themselves; flavor, naming, and design. ARIH was truly made by BTS.
With Tae’s recent vlog, I’m reminded of the first vlog of his that I saw which solidified for me his position on my bias line. He took us on a driving date and I fell in love 😍🫠😄

Hello ARMY💜
I, like you, have been through a lot these last few years. I divorced my now ex husband after I found myself , my voice & hope here in Boraland💜I just accepted a job in Ohio (about 2 hours away) & am moving there soon. This entire time I’ve continued to live with my ex because my son still lives here. It’s been very trying at times.
I would not be free today if I wouldn’t have found this wonderful purple place. I would not be me today if I had never heard Namjoon say “I do believe your galaxy” and heard the Life Goes On lyrics & felt the support that I had been needing from my (then) spouse coming from 7 men that I had never met and in a span of 3 minutes & 48 seconds had given me what I needed so badly. I am forever thankful for our 7 men who understand me & my life trials & have given me the courage & strength to move on and find happiness.
Every time I came here and something/someone on the tl made me smile or giggle or laugh it made my situation that much more bearable.
This is a big step for me. I’m almost 52 and I’m starting over. But I’m happier than I’ve been in several years.
Thank you, my silly, sweet, adorable, wonderful, purple BTS & ARMY & long term & long distance friends I have made here. Also, thank you to my daughter who has been my rock.
You are all so precious to me.
Borahae💜
Saranghae,
Eileen🫶🏻
