January 29, 2024 (released)-

Tae’s hairstylist, Mujin, is interviewed for Harper’s Bazaar Korea. He talks with the magazine about Tae’s beautiful blue hair, noting the process to achieve this ethereal look. He mentions the story and concept of the pictorial were planned in advance, with the male, coming of age, romantic drama “Call Me By Your Name” (CMBYN) being an inspiration.

Article snippet:

🗣️: In this <Bazaar> pictorial, V's unique transformation of blue hair drew attention. Why did you choose this color?

Mujin: After checking the overall story, design, and concept of the pictorial planned by 'Bazaar' in advance, the mise-en-scène of “Call Me by Your Name.”

Mujin also references the LGBTQ+ movie “Blue is the Warmest Color,” a female coming of age movie similar to CMBYN, and we can discern this because he says “warmest” then ‘blue color’ is placed in quotations, indicating he’s citing material that inspired their pictorial. His exact words are, “The warmest ‘blue color’ with a European sensibility rather than a specially decorated feel.” A Google search of “warmest blue color” will showcase the movie, and protagonist Emma’s blue hair color.

Another translation -

Of course, this isn’t the first time Tae has mentioned his fondness for the movie CMBYN. On May 31, 2019, on the heels of pride month, he uploaded to the BTS Twitter page a snippet of him playing the movie’s OST on the piano.

On June 9, 2019, he recommended the movie to Hobi during a live.

On June 9, 2020 (during pride month), Tae read Elio’s father’s impactful speech on a live:

And as an aside, I always found it interesting and noteworthy that the very next day, after reading Elio’s father’s monologue about living life on your terms and no one else’s, Tae responded to a fan on Weverse by saying, “I want to be happy too🥺”

And on September 4, 2023, an article was posted on Weverse. Within the contents of the article, “Rainy Days”, a song from Tae’s solo debut album “Layover”, is noted to have followed the “tomato girl summer” trend, which was inspired by movies such as “Call Me By Your Name.”

Hey Lady Peach.

I know we are all “obsessed” with the Dream premier, the Hawaii vacation, the Golden photos etc, but what do you think of Tae’s pictorial in W Korea for 14 Feb 2024? I read in W Korea’s insta post that the artist asked that the photos are published on that date. Maybe he didn’t have much to say about the overall photoshoot, but I think he 100% was the one asking for Tiger Lillies in his photos! I know of only 1 person that has that tattoo…. Hmmmm. Tae even has a pair of jeans with Tiger lilies during his Layover promotions. Now! Am I crazy? Or am I right that the photoshoot was also a message for a certain loved one?!? 🤪

Ooh Lady Peach 🤗

I just did a little clicking. Deep diving ridiculous things is my serotonin 🙃

W Korea caption that refers to the date says:

밸런타인데이 선물 같은 방탄소년단 뷔의 화보를 공개합니다.

Deepl says: We're releasing BTS's V's cover like a Valentine's Day gift.

Papago: I'm releasing a photo shoot of BTS V, which looks like a Valentine's Day gift.

Google Translate: We are releasing a pictorial of BTS V that is like a Valentine's Day gift.

I don't think they do refer to this being Tae's requested date.

But there's still a lily involved. This is the shoot from Valentine's Day 2024:

(I could have illustrated the point with one picture but the face card was too insane. 😌)

Other flowers are featured though:

Some dahlias, zinnias, chrysanthemum, gypsophilia - none of them with any relevance as far as I know. I think they've all just been picked for being the same tone of bold orange. But who knows whether the lily dictated that or whether orange was just the chosen colour.

What I will note is that tiger lilies have markings and these don't. JK definitely has the markings on his tattoo:

I think what Tae has is an Asiatic lily:

He posted these in his story though, drawing attention to the flowers:

Then there's the jeans:

This is a bit delulu but I do think things mean things when it comes to Tae. He's very witty and pointed, right? He loves symbols and wordplay. An orange lily is close enough that it might be something.

But in this case, I'm thinking Taekook Maybe. I can see it being a set dressing thing and then Tae grabbed a lily because he was drawn to it due to bias. Ditto styling on the jeans. But to ask for it himself? I'm not sure. I don't know about that.

Thanks anon! 💜

2023 Festa, the 10th Anniversary

I think I can speak for a lot of Army: we are relieved to see an official Festa map!

For new Army:

Festa is the annual celebration that happens on June 13 and celebrates the debut of BTS (June 13, 2013). Festa typically includes a pre-recorded video of the members discussing and answering pre-planned talking points and eating and sometimes drinking. We call it Festa dinner.

I'm sure you've heard that last year's was particularly heartbreaking in that they announced their hiatus to focus on solo projects and their inevitable enlistment to fulfill their military obligation. Festa also includes a lot of other content leading up to the actual anniversary day.

Older Army probably can shed more light on what transpired during previous Festas.

After last year, we really didn't know what to expect this year. But finally, we see they will have a full slate of content for us. The schedule on the map goes from May 31 through June 17.

Also in conjunction with Festa: the city of Seoul will commemorate BTS' 10th Anniversary by holding events throughout the city and lighting up major landmarks within the city with purple lights.

Looking at the Festa schedule "gameboard" it is laid out very similar to a Monopoly game board.

What could the pictorial icons on the spaces mean? 5/31: a ? and an Army flag. I think the flags represent playing pieces. 6/2: Video billboards on buildings? 6/3: Computer, popcorn, mic... Suga/Agust D online concert from Japan? and/or DANCE PRACTICE VIDEOS! 6/4 only has a gift box...6/5 has three-dimensional gift boxes... not sure if any of that will be actual content or just breather days. 6/7: A mic and a guitar... someone is going to sing, or perform or we get a song or ? 6/8: digital photos 6/9: another ? and Army flag. 6/10: Drinking and what looks like a calendar... not sure. 6/11: more digital pictures 6/12: we're getting a song. 6/13: The actual big day... another question mark... but with Seoul Tower on that space as well... hmmm. Also the flag is now a BTS flag. 6/14: more pictures 6/16: a trumpet and a mic... Trumpet makes me thing Taehyung... 6/17: a radio ... a radio show? Fireworks, Seoul Tower... a live broadcast? maybe they will turn the Seoul Tower purple... with fireworks.

I GUESS WE'LL FIND OUT! I CAN'T WAIT!!!
