I've told every doctor I've ever seen that I get bloody noses before every period and no one's ever wanted to check for anything, until today's hematology specialist who wants to check for Von Willebrand disease. So if you have a similar problem might be worth asking to get ✔️

Had lunch with visiting colleagues and when they asked about my recent vacation - this was the first time the majority knew and only one of them didn't know who BTS is.

Not to flex bc it isnt but I only spent ~$800 on my bts trip to vegas. I went super budget on hotels and travel, and I literally brought food with me. It wasnt the borahaegas everyone else had but it was perfect for me. Just sharing so ppl know you dont HAVE to save 10k for bts

@weverseshop Or make a bundle option where I can purchase all seven as one item?

[jyl-bts⁷ @JylBts]

@weverseshop Can you please adjust your website so I can get all seven members' embroidery pins in one purchase? I don't want to have to pay shipping three times so I can get all of them.

Namjoon about Normal

🐨: Normal is a very sad song. I wrote the lyrics in Korean and then changed it to English for radio and stuff, but yeah, there is a Korean version of Normal. The guys have even recorded the Korean version. Idk if it will ever be out tho. Anyways, kerosene is oil that lights the bulbs. One day you love me, one day you say you hate me fine make me bulletproof, so that I won't die even if you shoot me. There was this keyword of Normal. But what is normal for us? As we live as BTS what is the normal for me? Someday ppl tell me that they love me and the other day they tell me to get lost just like a very toxic couple. Ppl put us high 1000 times and pull down 1000 times too.
"Two sides of a coin and they both ain't true"
Both sides aren't true. Why? Coz both sides are true and both sides are fake at the same time. There's no one who can explain this team called BTS.
"Wish I had a min just to turn me off"
Fine this is the life that I've chosen and all mistakes are mine but I can think about having a min of shutting off from the ppl. This doesn't mean that I wanna give up on my life but I can hope for ppl to forget me for a moment. I think that's the feeling behind writing this lyrics. Now that I see this song is really sad too.
"Fantasy and fame yeah the things we choose"
We're accepting that we've chosen this fame. When we sing this song on stage we sing it as a happy song coz we're singing it together, coz this is the other side of the coin.

they didn't do one for Japan either btw. Idr if they did any for goyang, im blanking now. i hope people dont think they're owed one, all these are spontaneous choices they do as per their health and free time, not a fixed schedule.

BTS star RM took a detour on Stanford’s campus before the group’s final Bay Area concert — not to a famous landmark, but to a quiet cluster of trees tied to one of K-pop’s most bizarre internet scandals.

Before BTS’ scheduled concert at Stanford Stadium on Tuesday, May 19, RM visited a campus spot  fans know as the “Crying Tree,” recreating a famous image of Tablo, the Stanford-educated rapper and leader of the Korean hip-hop group Epik High.

The photo quickly spread among fans after appearing on RM’s Instagram account and being reposted by Tablo.

“omg he actually went to the crying tree,” Tablo wrote on Instagram.

For casual fans, the photo may have looked like a simple campus snapshot. But for many K-pop followers, it linked BTS’ blockbuster Bay Area run to one of the most painful — and eventually strangely funny — chapters in Korean pop culture history.

Tablo, whose legal name is Daniel Lee, attended Stanford before becoming one of South Korea’s most influential rappers. In 2010, he became the target of an online harassment campaign that falsely claimed he had lied about earning his Stanford degrees.

Stanford officials confirmed at the time that Lee had earned both a bachelor’s degree and a master’s degree in English.

“I still don’t understand this national phenomenon, where for two years all of Korea was fixated on me and my identity,” Tablo told the Chronicle in 2022.

As part of a 2010 MBC documentary, “Tablo Goes to Stanford,” meant to put the rumors to rest, the singer returned to the campus and sat near a group of trees by Meyer Green. Overwhelmed by the ordeal, he broke down in tears.

Fans later began referring to the location as the “Crying Tree,” a shorthand for the toll the conspiracy theory took on Tablo and his family.

Last year, Epik High members Mithra Jin and DJ Tukutz brought Tablo back to Stanford for a YouTube video and coaxed him into recreating the moment with a comic twist. In a later video with RM and Suga, Tablo urged the BTS members to visit the spot during their Stanford concerts.

RM appears to have taken the assignment seriously. In the photo posted Monday, May 18, he wore a dark outfit and backpack that echoed Tablo’s original image, turning a once-painful Stanford landmark into a knowing tribute between two generations of Korean music stars.

jimin ran across the entire stage to do the iconic bridal style lift with jungkook in no more dream only for them to realise it wasn't the live version of the song and there was no instrumental to do the lift 😭 the way jimin just drops to the floor laughing, lmaooo

[HobiCasa ⊙⊝⊜ARIRANG l🏊‍♂️🔴 @HobiCasa]

. “Thanks to BTS, the whole world knows Arirang” 🥹 Oh dear 😭😭😭 too much tears watching this post about a mom sharing she didn’t know Arirang has so much meaning until she watched BTS viral videos, and her late halmoni (grandma) used to sing it all the time to them. She shared a video of her daughter trying on a hanbok of her grandmother and her halmoni singing it all the time. I hope the boys see her post, the impact and reconnection they are making 🥹

Her caption:
Our Halmoni (Grandma) used to sing Arirang all the time. My cousin told us the song was trending because of bts and I finally watched the viral videos and now I'm a mess. It would have blown her mind to see full stadiums around the world singing it in unison, especially in Japan and the US.” 😭😭😭😭

RM x SFMOMA newsletter with a personal message by #RM.

“I have dreamed of creating a space that transcends East and West, modern and contemporary, by adding works of Western masters whom I like, find meaningful, timeless, and contemporary.

I believe that works from Korea (especially from the 1950s to the 80s) have much to offer us today. Their attitude toward life and their work, in particular, is significant. They painted with the spirit of transcending their status as artists from a colonial, impoverished country. How many artists, like Van Gogh, were only recognized after they died, or have yet to be discovered and faded away?

I wanted to spotlight them and restore their dignity in the sanctuary I have created. And I believe that we should live our lives with that similar attitude.

RM.”
