begins ≠ youth feels so personal as an army and i'll tell you why. i started watching the drama without any expectations - expectations in the sense of correlating the seven boys with bangtan. i repeatedly told myself that the tannies and the seven boys on the show are 14 different entities, and i should not be correlating their existence, and that this drama was just inspired by the hyyh webtoon. however, 15 minutes into the first episodes, my plan went awry. the resemblance was too uncanny to ignore - dogeun's butterfingers and intelligence, cein's poker face and language of existential crisis, hosu's cheerful face inspite of being hurt, jeha's immaturity and fun nature, haru's attachment with hosu and annoyance towards jeha treating him as if they were the same age, jooan's tendency to lurk around dogeun and team up with jeha to annoy haru and lastly hwan's maturity, and ability to take care of all six of them as the eldest. and i think if you've read till here you understood which character is correlated with which bangtan member. doesn't it feels personal? it does indeed, the fact that at a glance i could understand the dynamic, just through the actions. yes, it did make me miss them much much more than i already do, but it made me miss them a little less as well, and i really hope this drama receives the recognition it deserves, as a reward for the continuous controversy it had been facing since it's announcement.
Their twenty fourth week in the military is now complete and time to celebrate this milestone with a look back at this week in 2016.
This was The Most Beautiful Moment in Life: Young Forever era with BTS promoting Epilogue: Young Forever, Fire and Save Me from when the album was released on the 2nd May 2024.
In mid-May, BTS began filming Bon Voyage 1 with a trip to Scandinavia to celebrate their three year anniversary. The adventure began on the 15th when they were told their destination and that the staff would not be on hand to help them to organise tickets and food. They would also be assigned a budget which they could not exceed for each country. They asked for a student backpacking like trip and that is what they got.

First was Norway followed by Sweden (19/05) and then Finland. They did a live from their first stop in Bergen, Norway on the 17/05/2016. It was the day after their arrival and Jungkook's coming of age celebration. This was the party where it was suggested they play rock paper scissors to see which one of them would give him a congratulatory kiss and only Jimin was up for it.
On the 19/05 they took a train trip and Jimin posted these photos on TwiX. Tired Kookie asleep on the train, que guapo!
Next they flew to Sweden and Jimin posted these photos looking handsome on the streets of Stockholm. They also did a group live.
On the 22/05 they were in Finland after cruising from Stockholm to Helsinki.
Unfortunately, RM losing his passport meant that he was unable to remain in Finland and had to take the first plane back to South Korea. It was not the way anyone wanted to finish the trip.
J-Hope and Jimin did a seven minute live in which they asked for suggestions on what to eat that night. Someone suggested lamb skewers and Jimin immediately thought Jungkook would love that.
They spent the afternoon in a sauna and playing games that ended in the loser having to jump into the cold water of the lake. Jimin ended up in the lake twice once accompanied by V and once by Suga.
Luckily there was a hot tub where they could all recover afterwards.
The next day it was JK and Yoongi's turn and lamb skewers were mentioned again, this time as a possible souvenir from their trip.
JK also talked about his early morning camera shoot and this is the amazing picture he took of the sunrise over the lake.
They arrived back in South Korea on 25/05/2016 and wow Jimin looked so cool walking through the airport.
I had so much fun watching the Bon Voyage 1 episodes and would recommend it to anyone who hasn't seen them yet. There were so many famous jikook moments that suddenly all slotted into place on the timeline.
Also these guys are the most forgetful group I've ever seen.
Jimin leaves his case on the airport bus and has to retrieve it
Hobi loses the ticket to the cable car which was luckily picked up a tourist and returned to him.
RM leaves his bag behind (but the staff actually retrieve it and give it back to him)
RM loses his passport and the replacement travel papers will only allow him to fly back to South Korea and not continue the vacation in Finland. He was so disappointed and the last leg of the trip wasn't the same without him.
V gets lost in the middle of nowhere after getting on the wrong bus from Stockholm airport and then getting off the bus at a random stop.
