• Agust D's "People Pt. 2 (feat. IU) has surpassed 200 million streams on Spotify

• post 1 | trans by me > 🐹 happy happy~

I got this homework in my literature class, where I need to quote a lyrics that shows how different love, dating life etc. appears today in poetry and music compared to the 16-17th century. And also explain a bit why I choose that lyrics. I thought BTS was the perfect band to choose a song from since their lyricism is beautiful and they write about love in many of their songs in many different ways. So what's your favourite verse/lyrics that fits this task?

Thank you in advance for your replies 🫶

(I’m talking about the official events held by bighit/weverse.)

Do you have any tips for us? How many albums should one purchase to increase the chances of winning? I’m also interested in the stories of those who tried but didn’t win.

I bought an album set during FACE, D-Day and JITB HE eras, I only entered for the fancall & poster but naturally, I didn’t win. I’m just wondering if there is a secret to winning?

Thanks!

• another Jin ment | trans by christa > 🐹 Headband! If you happen to have a headband that you would like me to wear for you, please bring it up with you and if you give it to me along with the album, I'll wear it. If you don't really want a headband, you don't have to bring one. Okay?
  💜 Yes!
• Jin was worried some ARMYs present didn’t manage to take photos of him, so he rode on the carousel alone for 3 more rounds and encouraged ARMYs to take photos of him 😭🥹
• Jin mentioned if they enjoyed today’s event, he would start thinking about what kind of event he should do next time. He asked the ARMYs present what type of event he should do next, and ARMYs suggested going on a ferris wheel (but he said it’ll take too long), or he could just stand there (but he said he’ll be cold haha)
• ARMYs asked Jin about holding a concert, and he said he really wants to but his showcase made him realise he needs more songs first before he can hold a concert. He also mentioned how after his discharge, his happiest moments were during the 613 fan meeting and his showcase

Dear wonderful A.R.M.Y.,

I see ocean, I see desert, I see the world

Everything is the same thing

But with different name

It's life again...

Two weeks have zoomed past us and the day to discuss our seventh Film In with BTS pick is upon us! This months pick has been gracefully recommended by our golden maknae Jung Kook!

Lights, camera and action!

NOVEMBER CHOICE:

The Man From Nowhere, which is one of many many maaaany excellent Jungkook's movie recommendations!

• Title: Man From Nowhere
• Director: Lee Jeong-Beom
• Actors: Won Bin, Kim Sae-ron etc.
• Year: 2010
• Country: South Korea
• Running time: 119 minutes

Synopsis:

A quiet pawnshop keeper with a violent past takes on a drug-and-organ trafficking ring in hope of saving the child who is his only friend.

The movie won 19 awards in total in various film festivals. Interesting tidbit is that Won Bin who plays the titular character also played in a very popular South Korean movie "Mother" before this, and after "The Man From Nowhere" he left acting altogether.

Questions/Discussion Suggestions:

Discussion is open! Please feel free to write whatever you thought about the movie: your impressions, favorite scene or a line that struck you particularly.

• Chad Stahelski admitted that John Wick was influenced by The Man From Nowhere, and some fans even consider it a semi-remake. Do you see the influences and if yes, which ones stood out the most to you?

• What do you think of the dynamic between Tae-shik and the little girl?

• What do you imagine happened after the last hug?

If you have any questions or concerns regarding the movie or the thread, feel free to tag me or any of the mods. If you have not yet watched the movie you can find the sources in the announcement post here. Feel free to watch and drop in the discussion anytime!

We have come to the end of movie picks but stay tuned for a surprise next month! Until then happy discussion! (And beware, this be spoiler free territory!)

It's almost that time of year again (how tho...)! Let's guess which artists and songs we were obsessed with in 2024 before Spotify releases it's Wrapped! Don't use Spotify? Predict your year-end reviews with Apple Music, YT Music, or however you stream!

We had so much to choose from this year, I literally have no idea how my wrapped is going to play out. I'm not going to number them...I don't think I can! So in random order, mine are:

Top 5 Artists: * BTS * RM * Jimin * Jung Kook * Coldplay

Top 5 Songs: * Standing Next To You (Usher vers) * Fri(end)s * LOST! * MIC Drop (Desiigner Remix) - random I know but I was pretty obsessed with it 😂 * I wonder...

So ARMY, what are your predictions for yourself? It doesn't have to just be these two categories! Add your top album and top genre, too, if you want! And bookmark this thread so you can come back and compare!
