Which members promotions were your favorite so far? Hobi might win for me because that listening party was super fun and Lollapalooza was crazy. Also More sits at the same table as SMFpt2 for me as far as being really shocking and exciting when it dropped!

Hi Anon!

Nothing beats Yoongi’s D-DAY tour for me. My god what an experience. I was fortunate to attend multiple stops and I still have fever dreams in the middle of the day remembering how hard I was screaming along to Burn It and Huh, how my friend burst into tears during Snooze, how I choked up a bit during Life Goes On and finally lost it on The Last. The encore tours gave me the emotional equivalent of a blood transfusion. Seeing Jimin, Namjoon, and Jungkook on stage in a proper concert setting for the first time in almost a year, was really the best parting gift and I’ll always be grateful to Yoongi for it. I love that man very, very much.

That cute practice session Yoongi did for the ‘I’m so cute’ or whatever challenge with Jimin too, subbing ARMYs with screaming plushies and the live he did reading fan messages teasing us about his seven tattoo… and then that cheeky reveal after the tour ended…

Yoongi gave me everything and more with his album and the tour.

Other members too:

- SeokJin going to Argentina to promote The Astronaut with Coldplay was incredible. The planning and organizing behind that feat couldn’t have been easy but somehow they made it work and LatAm ARMYs were finally able to see at least one Tannie for the first time in a long while. That really was amazing.

- Taehyung’s Tiny Desk performances are 🤌🏽

- I loved how Jimin really thought outside the box with his promotions, choosing to go on many really fun Korean variety shows. These are shows BTS either hadn’t done ever or in something like 5 years. A lot of my K-ARMY friends loved how Jimin seemed to prioritize them fully in ways that hadn’t been done for a while.

- I tried hard to attend Joon’s small concert but work commitments didn’t allow that possibility, but I also really love his promotion choices. My partner (surprisingly) has become a tiny bit obsessed with Joon’s Tiny Desk performance lol, so I suspect Joon has gained a new fan.

- Think I’ve already talked about how Hobipalooza was the concert highlight of 2022 for me. Hobi had such a short time to put everything together, and I’m proud of him for going out of his comfort zone a bit sending out invites and throwing the launch party. I loved seeing him just celebrate his success, seeing the other members chill out and have a good time.

- It was nice seeing that at least one member did not forget Europe exists with their promotions (😭), so I’m glad Jungkook could make the trip over to promote Seven in the UK.

The rapline’s album projects are easily some of the best releases this year in any genre for me. And I’m not even trying to be biased. Corroborated by critics reviews, each album is a solid, cohesive, and cerebrally stimulating piece of art and I’m so proud of them for putting it together. It’s easy to see how BTS has become the biggest band in the world when you have these three men who can stand as respected artists in their own right, being the bedrock of the music created by BTS for the last 10 years.

Jimin’s debut with FACE ended k-pop in 2023. I’m not sure if you’re aware, but the industry as we know it, life as we know it, Jimin as we knew him, ended in March 2023. What Jimin did with Set Me Free Pt 2 still gives me goosebumps when I think about it. That song was a warning shot, a small mercy to the industry to warn them in advance of who Jimin is prepared to become as a solo artist and as Jimin of BTS, and I cannot overstate how excited I am for his next project. FACE as an album is the complete package. His songs are just good. Like, actually good. Good enough to play anywhere and any time. That’s the kind of music Jimin makes. Imagine hearing Face-off in a concert arena… imagine hearing the intro play before he comes on stage. Can you even imagine….

Lol I’m starting to hurt myself with these imagines.

Taehyung’s album too is very good (though these days it only gets plays from me in the evenings). And while Seven isn’t my favorite release, it’s still a well made song that Jungkook of course has done a phenomenal job with. Twice now he’s had to promote it outdoors in very bad weather and he’s kept his vocals stable and well projected. He’s working hard and I’m hoping it translates well into work done for his solo album debut later this year.

I have almost no complaints in the debut solo showcases from all the members, in their promotion styles, and in the overall presentation. These albums were all very decent and respectable first showings from the members of the biggest group in the world. The response from the general public and professional critics has been very favourable, and the fandom has supported each member to be as successful as one would expect for anyone from BTS.

I’m a very happy ARMY in Chapter 2 ^_^

You get jealous

Kim seokjin;

Jin decided to take you, his girlfriend, with him to a MMA’s Jin also told you that their would be a after party.

So when you and the boys came in after they won the award for best foreign group all of you decided to go to the after party. It was crowded so Seokjin had you closely to him so he wouldn’t lose you in the crowded.

Suddenly Seokjin stopped walking making you bump into him, you looked up at him confused before looking past him. Camila Cabello was right in front of you, does that mean shawn mendes in around here too?!

“Sorry, world wide handsome coming through.” Jin laughed in broken English, she smiled, “It’s okay, you dont run into an attractive man everyday.” She was low key flirting and you were shocked that she was obviously flirting with him when you were just standing right beside him.

Holding hands.

Isn’t she like literally dating shawn mendes? She gave you a quick glance before smirking, you felt your blood boil. She was obviously flirting with him and you don’t have to speak good English to know that.

Jin flirted back without even thinking about it because, he’s Jin, he flirts with everyone he meets. It’s kind of his charm.

Namjoon soon stepped in front of them and told Camila that they needed to go and talk to their manager, he saw the looks you were giving her, but Jin didn’t. she nodded and stepped aside letting us pass.

“I’m going to the toilet if that’s what your worried around. Don’t flirt with people too much.” You said bitterly as you walked away, “Nice working Hyung.” He heard jungkook saying but soon heard a slap and a groan coming from the younger boy.

“Namjoon, where the toilet here?”

Joon told him where it was and he almost ran to the toilet, what if this time he really messed up?

He soon reached the door and he softly knocked, he silently prayed that this was only a one single toilet but even he would be smart enough to know that that wasn’t the case.

A girl who he doesn’t even know opened the door, “Um, I’m not a creep, I swear, I’m worried about my girl.” She just looked at him funny, probably because of his English but stepped aside.

He smiled and bowed her way before walking in, he pushed at every door and soon he found a locked one.

“Baby? Are you in here?” He heard a soft hum and the sound of the door being unlocked, he looked down at you before smiling.

He softly petted your head before pecking your lips, “How dare you being jealous when I already shown you so many times that I love you, do you need me to show you again, Princess.”

*^*^*

Min yoongi;

“Oh my god, Y/n. He’s even more attractive than the pics you showed me.” Yoongi smiled because he saw that Y/b/n was joking around but you didn’t.

You scoffed but didn’t say anything.

this was supposed to be your anniversary with yoongi at the cute cafe the two of you met when he was writing a new song but you ran into your best friend and now she’s all over him.

When it went on for a good 15 minutes more you stood up and throw some cash on the table before walking out without looking at them.

He was quick to run after you, leaving your best friend alone.

But he didn’t worry about that, you were his top priority. The same fear he keeps having was once again back and he felt torn apart.

What if this is the time you’re going to leave him because he doesn’t shut down the flirting. If can even call that flirting.

He spots you by his car, he sighs softly before walking up to you. “What was that about?” He asked, “Go back to her, seems like you enjoy her company.” Was the only respond he got back for his question.

He held out his hand for you to take, you hesitated before doing so, he slowly pulls you into him and kissed your forehead.

“You don’t need to be jealous babe, I’m all yours. I would be stupid if you let a beautiful and kind girl like you go.”

*^*^*

Kim Namjoon;

Namjoon and you have been dating in secret for some time now, and here you two were with both your groups on a variety show.

You had to play truth or dare with the grown man which you thought was kind of childish, but you also knew that this was their way of getting to know things that we didn’t want to tell them.

“Namjoon-ah, truth or dare?” Joons head shot up his name being called as he swallowed down his unease.

“U-uh... dare?”

The commentator smirked, “I dare you to have y/b/n on your lap.” His eyes widened at the request of the man, “I-I really can’t do that. I’m sorry.”

“Why not? Is there a special someone that we should know about?” The rest of the commentators smirked as they saw namjoons face.

Namjoon gave you a quick glance but you didn’t return it, you didn’t know how to feel about this. What the hell was he doing?

Your bandmember plants herself onto Namjoon and you felt like you were about to cry, E-Excuse me? Can I go to the toilet?” They shot you a look before nodding.

You sighed and walked out, you expected Namjoon to come after you and talk to you about what that was all about but he never did.

After the interview was done she still was onto namjoons lap, now instead of sadness you felt anger and jealousy, he was your boyfriend after all.

“Y/b/n, we need to go.”

“But-“

“Get up.”

She immediately stood up and walked back to the rest of your bandmembers, you looked at Namjoon once’s more before walking away.

He quickly got to his feet and grabbed onto your arm, “Y/n/n-“

“It’s fine, I’m fine, your fine, everything is fine.” You said as you pulled your arm back, he sighed and grabbed into your face.

“I was doing it for you, baby, if I went after you everyone would’ve know about us. I’m trying to protect you.” He whispered as he pulled you closer, you sighed as you felt yourself relax as he warmed you up with his body.

“I’m sorry baby, if it helps I didn’t enjoy any second of it. She was creepy as hell.”

*^*^*

Hoseok;

You felt dumb so being jealous of one of his bandmembers, Yoongi was holding Hoseok’s hand and of course he lets yoongi do whatever he wants.

You watched the two hug before smiling at eachother, you pouted and stood up, yoongi was the first to see you as he smirked and opened one arms of you to join.

You smiled and quickly made your way over to the two, “Aww Hoseok, your girl if jealous.” He teased as hope looked down at you, he patted your head before kissing his forehead.

“I would be two, Hyung, we would make a a pretty good couple.”

*^*^*

Jimin;

Jimin asked you to come with him to a fan meeting and made you watch from back stage, you didn’t have anything against army and army didn’t have anything against you.

But you know your boyfriend and his flirtatious characteristics, you watched as your boyfriend played with the poor army, he was holding her hands and kissed her knuckles.

The army blushed a deep red before it was time for a member switch. This went on and on for the whole fan meeting till it was over.

Jimin smiled brightly as he came back stage to hug you, but when you turned your back to him he knew it was too much what he had done.

“Come on, baby, you know this is important for the ous and also for army. Imagine spending so much money on this and your bias not even looking at you.” He explains as he smiled lovingly at you.

“You promise that’s the only reason?”

He nods cutely before pecking your lips.

*^*^*

Taehyung;

(Tae out here really bias wrecking me-)

And of course you knew that Tannie would be apart of your cuddle session but soon Taehyung unwrapped his arms from your body and only cuddle the pup close.

You sighed and pouted as you watched the two, you scooped over and laid your head into his shoulder, “Tae Tae, you just got back, Uhh.. you’re really just gonna cuddle Tan? Not me?”

He smiled softly before looking at you, he lets go of the dog for a second who laid down beside you and Tae. Tae turned to you and hugged you close to him as he smirked.

“You really got jealous of dog..”

*^*^*

Jungkook;

It was Friday night and it was game night. No not for you and jungkook but for the maknae line.

You decided to lay on the bed as you scrolled through your phone as you boyfriend yelled at the other two men.

You sighed and dropped your arm onto your face as you started to close your eyes, “JIMIN! HELP ME BRO?! YOU SUCK AT GAMES EVEN MORE THAN YOONGI HYUNG!” Your boyfriend suddenly yelled making you jump at his sudden yell.

“Yah! Just shut up, punk!” I heard the voice of the older male through my boyfriends headphone.

You softly took jungkooks hands off of the joystick and sat onto his lap, he automatically wrapped his arms around you to still play the game as you dropped your head into his shoulder.

“You better pay attention to me when this one in done.” You mumbled into his neck.

*^*^*

[peaches-of-1]

Training: Lip in Hip

This is a short fun piece I’ve been thinking about doing for a while. I started writing this when I had been watching lots of dance covers of people doing “Hip and Lip” by Hyuna.

Training Masterlist

You thought about it and asked if they’d be up for a K-pop in Public sort of thing even though you knew it’d be dangerous because fans. Jin echoed your thoughts.

You looked at your computer screen and changed tabs to YouTube which was playing in the background. There were several that came to mind that you sort of knew the moves to already, but you’d be nervous to ask for a few of them. Biting your lip, you replied that you would tell them when they got home.

Then they reminded you that they’d be in a different city overnight because of their packed schedule. Right. You sighed and then they floodded you with messages not to be sad and that they’d be home soon. You smiled.

“I love you guys. I’ll just send you video links then.” You smiled fondly at your phone screen. “Fuck, I gotta go grocery shopping.”

For the first time in what seemed a while, you really loved your life. It was perfect for you. Your wildest dreams had come true and more. Thinking about it, Taehyung was probably busy getting ready for the vacation. The one in the states. According to the planner, it would take 120 days including proper rest and wiggle room if anything went awry.

[Jimin’s 🔴REC]

White noise. Nothing to see yet. Ok, human noise but still no faces.

“-HUT UP!! I’M LIVE!!!”

Noise settles and the cutest mochi shows up on screen.

“So,” Jimin says with a mouthful of teriyaki noodles. “Our friend, (Y/N), wants to do a K-pop in Public challenge. She’s probably not watching, so I can talk about this--”

“Don’t talk about it!” The scolding voice of Jin comes from offscreen. “You know how she likes to lurk. Also, they’ll probably message her telling her about it.”

Jimin sighs, “You’re right. Ok, so I’ll talk about these noodles instead. They’re so good! I wasn’t sure if I was going to like them because the restaurant said they were using a new sauce, but it’s good. I might order some more.”

The camera turns onto Jin with crumbs all over his face, “Wot?”

“How’s the food?” Laughter.

Their phones went off and it was the group chat. You had sent links to the three songs you wanted to do in the order of most to least. They laughed and covered their mouths, nearly choking.

“Do you see this?” Hobi asked. “She wants to do these dances? Oh my god. Can we even--”

He suddenly remembers they are live and starts laughing. Hobi stands and gets close to the camera, “That’s a surprise for you, so I can’t talk about it here. Mwah” And he went into a different room to call (Y/N).

Jimin smiles and pushes back his hair, “You’re gonna like this once we have it figured out. How about we answer some questions?”

He smiles and waits for a good one to come up.

[Later...]

Jimin is in bed . Sideways. It’s no longer live but his video diary of sorts.

“I know I’m not supposed to say this, but I’m so glad (Y/N) is in our lives. She’s such a lovely human being. Always there for us and a great heart.” He sighs. “I love her. Like, not just regular love, but I would marry her if I could. She probably doesn’t want someone like me, not forever. There are things you don’t know about me that she does.”

Like, the fact that he was a Little. The fact that he was a bottom was only speculation in the fandom, and they didn’t know the true extent.

He looks behind him and then back at the camera, “When she went away, I couldn’t stop crying. I didn’t know why, but now I do. I love her and she left. I love her so much. I only want what’s best for her. When she came back, it was like a miracle. Sorry if I made any of you jealous by holding her in public and stuff. I just thought that if I let go, then she’d leave again.”

He sneezed.

“Excuse me.”

Hoseok came out of the bathroom in his teal silk pajamas, “Your turn Jiminie. Are you recording again?”

“Yeah, I’m almost done, though.”

“Ok.”

Jimin looks back at the lens. “I’m gonna go get clean. I’ll see you all later!”

You were so happy when the boys came back home. Jin kissed your cheek and said he loved the photos of you with Yeontan. Namjoon made sure you did all the chores on the list he had left. Yoongi pet your head before he plopped on the couch. Taehyung picked up his Tannie and went to the fridge. Hoseok hugged you and said he missed you. Kookie kissed your lips and asked Tae if there was any sparkling water. Jimin was last, and he held your hand and led you to the couch.

They wanted to say something. You knew this because they were out and didn’t go directly to their rooms. Tae said he’d see us later because he only had time for a 30 minute nap before heading back out, and he was gonna take it.

“Well?”

Jungkook spoke up first, “So, we learned the dances we wanted to do. We all want to do the first one. Jin, Hoseok, and I wanna do the second one. The rest wanna do the other.”

You tilted your head, “That’s great news! Just, why do you sound like you’re leaving something out?”

No one answered. Taehyung came out, “They all wanna be the one you ride during ‘Hip & Lip’, and want you to decide since they’re huge babies.” And then he left again to his room.

“Bitch.” Hobi said under his breath and then talked to you, “It’s obviously me, right? I mean, c’mon.”

They started to bicker among themselves. Jin and Namjoon just looked at each other and shook their heads. You pressed your pointer fingers together, “Actually, I wanted it to be Jin if you’re into it?”

He popped up and grabbed both of your hands, “Are you sure? Oh my gosh!”

Yoongi broke his stoicness, “I’m happy for you, I really am, but why him?”

You stood up and rubbed his back and shoulders, “He’s a broad boy, and me likey the support.”

Hoseok spoke up, “But wouldn’t someone with a thinner body work, though? He’s gotta get in and out pretty quickly just so that no one get in anybody’s way.”

Jin pouted, “Hobi, are you trying to mess this up for me by saying you’re the better person because I’m--”

“Sorry, hyung, for interrupting and saying that, but I’m just being honest. I’m not just saying me, I’m just saying for logic’s sake, someone that doesn’t have to make her spread her legs so much to let one of us...get...between them. I’m talking about dance, ok!”

“You sure are, Hobi.” Yoongi laughed and flashed a smile.

Namjoon spoke up, “He’s right, y’know. Everything should go as smoothly as possible. Also, are we gonna get other girls to join us or--”

“NO.” All the other guys said in unison, with so much power that it made Joonie take a step back.

“Well, no it is then, ddaeng!”

Jin went over to comfort him, and then all eyes turned back to you, waiting for you to choose one of them. Jeez. You really didn’t want to hurt anyone’s feelings or think it was a favoritism thing. Looking around you decided yes or no for the remaining options.

“Well, Jimin was usually getting ridden by me, and I don’t want you getting turned on in public. Hobi and Yoongi, you two might try something, so no way.” You looked between Namjoon and Jungkook. “Rock, paper, scissors. Best 2 out of three.”

They quickly turned to each other and did the game. Namjoon won twice, and so he was the one getting ridden when they did the dance. Everyone watched the dance practice video on TV tracking and picking their parts. Some of the moves they had done variations of, so they knew it’d be pretty easy to learn.

Their schedules were pretty light, so for the next two weeks, the seven of you focused on learning the dance. It was Taehyung that came up with showing up at random spots where busking was popular and do it there. Daytime so that it’d be easier to escape afterwards. You pouted since you wanted to do at least one at night.

You guys would do it twice a day at random spots, busking or not. That’s what was decided in the end in order to protect the boys...and you. The way the manager said it made it seem like you weren’t as important, which you knew you weren’t in the grand scheme of things. Not in the same way.

They all gathered around you and said that they loved you, giving that manager a glare. You giggled, actually believing that they did. If not, you wouldn’t have been here now. And so you guys filmed yourselves performing it for an impromptu Bangtan Bomb that went up at midnight.

At the end, a black screen comes up with a list of times. It was when you were going to perform to get some hype. #BangtanList was trending within an hour, and you went to bed cuddling a frustrated Jimin. He had made a pretty big mess up during an interview today and had been beating himself up for it. All the other guys noticed, but he didn’t really say anything except screaming your name as soon as he got home.

He just wanted to be held, and your arms were always opened.

Times Square Mall, 10am. You guys had to do the first one pretty early and before lunch so that you could eat straight after making your getaway. The boys were in face masks. The mall would play the song over the speakers. You got ready and performed with the boys, smiles in your eyes. Sexy face on.

Bodyguards made sure everyone was far enough back for you guys to move as the crowd started recording and smiling. Some even cried upon seeing most of Bangtan in person. When it was over, a hole was made in the crowd and you all ran to the van that was waiting for you all outside. #LiptanSonyeonHip started going around along with #BangtanList now.

Fantaken recordings and pictures started to circulate. There was a day that Taehyung could join you guys, and he was so glad. Namjoon let him be the one between your legs for those performances. It went well. Not too many mobs were caused even when you did show up to busking events.

Sometimes you’d bump into one of the guys on accident, or they’d run into you and you would just smile and laugh it off. There was even one day when you traded spots with Namjoon. Well, actually, Namjoon was too shy to do that part, and so Jimin did it instead.

The last time was midnight. It was as if everyone in Korea had decided to be out and about in Seoul this time of night. It’s basically what had happened. Everyone wanted to see the boys perform with you and weren’t sure where you’d pop up. This time, it was a fan inclusive performance. Four girls had been chosen beforehand to be a part of this final showing, but they had to promise not to tell anyone where the boys were gonna be.

They didn’t, thank goodness. They’d have enough traffic and stuff with people trying to catch the 3 minute performance after their friends called and contacted them and with the quickness of social media updates.

So, when the performance happened, it was insanely fun. The girls didn’t fangirl too much and were able to do the dance without being too extra. They were also really good at what they did. Maybe they could join the boys and you on tour one day in the near future.

It was just insanely fun, and you guys were allowed to chill a bit after the performance. Which meant, you went home after getting enough takeout for a wedding reception and then have an amazing moonlit meal on the balcony and hang out in the jacuzzi. While you all ate, you looked at the photos and videos the fans had taken, retweeting and liking the ones that were your favorites.

You had all worn some type of light up piece of clothing. The boys had light up necklaces and glasses, with Taehyung and Hoseok also having light up shoes that they performed in. You had gotten to wear a light up fur jacket that you absolutely loved to pieces. Then you guys decided to go live as you all chilled for a moment.

“So, how’d you guys like our performances? It was cool, right?” Jungkook kicked his feet out.

Hoseok grinned and spoke with a full mouth, “It was (Y/N)’s idea. She wanted to do something big and fun with us since we’ve all been so busy lately.”

“But we’re going on a break soon before our next comeback.” Namjoon said. “An official announcment will be coming out soon. I can’t wait to see all of international fans.” He winked into the camera.

Jin added, “You guys are so bad at keeping secrets, I swear to God!”

Everyone laughed. Taehyung came into the room and told the guys to be quiet because you and Jimin had fallen asleep. The guys decided to come see how cute it was because it was two of the cutest members of their life fast asleep and cuddling on a couch. Both were in large sweaters and it was unclear if they were wearing shorts underneath. Jimin’s head rested on your chest while one of your hands were on his shoulder blades. It had fallen from smoothing his hair until he went to sleep.

“Awww. Cuteeee” Hoseok whispered.

The six boys returned to the other room to finish their live, answering questions until every other word became a yawn.
