tonight, the highlight was, without a doubt, for youth.
watching bts become just as emotional as army made the moment feel incredibly real. it was one of the most beautiful experiences of my life, a stadium filled with tears, gratitude, and memories, all wrapped in a single song.
it truly felt like love in its purest, most genuine form. for those few minutes, there was nothing but seven hearts and millions of others beating together.
this bond is just extraordinary.
A new angle of Yoongi's big gummy smile when "Tomorrow" started playing. He looks so genuinely surprised and happy. You can tell just how much this song means to both him and ARMY 😭
this is why we’re so strict about hotel etiquette. they give us months of their time, energy, performances, and pieces of themselves. the absolute bare minimum we can give back is the privacy to sleep, eat, and enjoy the little downtime they have.
and no, “but they smiled at us” isn’t proof they’re okay with it. what are they supposed to do? be visibly upset and spend the next week at the center of a hate campaign for being “rude”? they shouldn’t have to perform gratitude while their boundaries are being ignored.
when will some of you get it thru your heads that this affects their health, sleep, and safety? respecting their privacy isn’t a suggestion—it’s basic *human* decency ffs.
taehyung shouldn’t have to post about this so openly. those of you encroaching on their private time should be ASHAMED.
BY THE WAY, the background of this message is his sleep analysis and it says Tae only got 2hr 27mins of sleep, of which only 21mins was REM sleep and 37mins was deep sleep. THIS IS SO MESSED UP!!
Seriously how many times do they have to say this?! The "they smiled" "they were so nice," is an excused used by STALKERS to downplay BAD BEHAVIOR. STOP GOING THEIR HOTELS, THEIR HOMES, LET THEM HAVE THEIR PRIVACY!
🐻 We feel really grateful for your welcoming hearts, but we'd like you to refrain from coming to the hotel if possible. We don't really want to share where we're staying and it affects our condition for the concert and so we make this request of you. And as we go on our tour, it's really important to us to be able to try out delicious restaurants, walk along streets, and comfortably enjoy those countries. I hope there won't be any more times when you come to our hotels. We ask for your understanding!
Not looking good..
Remember you can leave a playlist running at home and control it through your phone anywhere you go
(I just left one going at my hotel).
So, didn't you all beg for Come Over to be released on streaming platforms? You did, right? Then maybe stream it like you meant it..?
Here's a playlist for you: https://t.co/75IYmHr8Yc
I have more, if you want them.
Jesus this music video was so well done. It really captured the vibe of the song and I loved the allusions to their other works. Like watching them struggle with fame but choose each other 🥹

Their 2026 ARIRANG era and post-military reunion brought cultural pride home with Korean-rooted sound while conquering the whole world again with record-breaking sold-out concerts, massive premieres, and anniversary celebrations in Busan.
