Bts hyyh merch guide (pt 1)
I'm going to make a merch guide to each of the eras to help people collect but I figured i'd start with hyyh since it was one of my favorites ₊✩‧₊˚౨ৎ˚₊✩‧₊
The obvious (albums):
There's a light blue and light pink for pt 1 and dark blue with dark pink for pt2 which im sure we all know by now but there was also a limited Taiwan edition!
As of right now these are kind of hard to find; but without pc only cost ~$30. Outside of the photocard/postcard the only real difference of these is the inclusion of the lyrics in chinese plus more cds. These were released only for pt 1 in both the white/pink versions!
The photocards are going to COST YOU though, with a general range of $150-200
There also was 2 Japan kayo nekka versions that had a inclusion of a dvd too. On the dvd was just the run mv plus a photo gallery. PLEASE do not buy the listings of people selling the cd alone with no photocard for around 100, if you look harder on ebay theres many for closer to 40 or 50!!
these photocard prices are even worse than the last, normally being 200 to 400 from what ive seen. at least youll have a easier time finding listings for these (┬┬﹏┬┬)
DVDS:
The first dvd for hyyh was in 2015 and was released on 160223, this one only covers the Seoul concerts (which were the first 3). The first 2 dvds show the last day of the in Seoul concert, and the last one has 5 performances in Japan, VCR making film, prologue, rehearsals, practice making films and concert making films. The 2nd dvd also includes a VCR interview and talk about hyyh. All in all this is 346 minutes long :) If your lucky you can get this for $100 no pc but I would count on it being 200-370. The pc normally is around 100 too 😭
2016 live on stage epilogue dvd - This included of course film of the concert but also the poster and bridge shoot, md shooting film, concert practice and concert making film. you can find links to watch it for free with english subs here!
This dvd will cost around 170-200 and most (thankfully) have pc included. The pc alone will probablyyyy cost you around 60 even though ive seen ones way lower (you have to just look hard).
Theres also a blue ray version for around 95-160 (originally sold for $53.78) This one I THINK has the same stuff on it but its only in 2 dvds. I really cant tell if the postcards were a pre order benefit or not plus if it came as a set or random. Theres barely any listings for these but they only go for like $30 each (its like a breath of fresh air typing a price that low)
2016 BTS LIVE Kayo Nenka on stage epilogue Japan Edition Deluxe Edition DVD - this was released on January 18, 2017 so you should notttt be spending anywhere near as much (id guess 60-90?) This comes with 2 discs,the limited edition has a 132 page photobook and has bluray plus dvd but the regular just has the bluray no photobook. There is also a regular version with just dvd. These ones are the regular:
The regular is really hard to find nowadays but I think the general price range is 50-80??
Concert merch:
This hoodie only came in one size, Im not too sure the price of the zip up but the normal hoodie for the epilogue was $30.42 so we can assume it was about the same. nowadays expect to pay 200-600 for it LMAO
The shirt came in medium and large, i cant find any pricing info or current listings for this but i would assume it would be in the hundreds. The problem is theres so many unofficial shirts with this pattern being sold so it drowns out all the official listings. you MIGHT have luck getting this on some old instagram or tumblr account though!
one size beanie- current cost is around $200 but older accounts on twitter or tumblr sell for $45. yall im gonna be honest I cant find the post for the 2015 tour merch for the LIFE of me so im not going to know any original prices
bandana 600x600- GOOD LUCK BUYING THIS THING only place i can find listings is carousell which were all really cheap (~$15) but then again they are old listings.
I cannot find these damn socks ANYYYYWHERE on the face of the internet. your guess is as good as mine chat
pickets- very few listings of these out here but they are only like $70! (crazy if you remember people sell love yourself ones for 50 and 60) BUT you can 100% find listings for way lower (around 20 or 30) they are just rare
program book- these are only 40-60
this is going to be more like $200 for a set of just one members, its way easier to find the 2016 ones
photo set- there was multiple sets of these (not sure how many IM SORRY) ; one goes for about 100
I reached the max for pictures on here so go to pt 2!! i hope this guide helps you guys ⸜(。˃ ᵕ ˂ )⸝♡

Day 13 — Favorite Picture Official or Unofficial
Another question about the photos. I like it. There are several official photoshoot that I like. I can mention for example Bryan Adams' photoshoot in 2015 for Zoo Magazine; Olaf Heine's photoshoot for the promotion of Reise Reise in 2004; again Bryan Adams in 2022 on the occasion of the release of the band's eighth album; Andreas Mühe's photoshoot in 2012 on the occasion of the US tour, one for SZ Magazin and the other completely naked; the photoshoot for the Untitled album in 2019 by Jes Larsen; Mike Hutson's photoshoot in 2001; Olaf Heine's photoshoot in 2016 in Brazil; Gottfried Helnwein's mythical photoshoot for Sehnsucht in 1997 and 1998; Eugenio Recuenco's photoshoot for the single Amerika or the album Liebe ist Für Alle Da. And I'm not even talking about Frédéric Batier's photobooks, Jens Koch's exceptional work or Matthias Matthies' all too rare ones !
In short, there are a lot of official photos that I love. Rammstein was lucky enough to work with some very talented professional photographers !
I have selected a few that I particularly like :
Photo taken in 2005 on the very famous Bernauer Strasse, a historical place that perfectly reminds us that Rammstein's history is intimately linked to Germany's. I really like Olaf. If Matthias Matthies is the one who has known the band for the longest time (even before its creation), Olaf is the one who has collaborated the most with Rammstein, be it for live photos or photoshoots.
A photo from P.R Brown's photoshoot at Tommy Guns Barber in New York City in 2010. I find them really beautiful, very classy. It's a bit of an unusual photoshoot, because usually you see the guys either in the studio, in "industrial" locations, or on or near the stage. I don't know the story of this photoshoot, why they took these pictures in this place with these outfits. But the rendering is very classy !
This photo is from Jens Koch's 2019 photoshoot for Rolling Stone magazine. I like to see the guys wearing something other than dark colours. In this case, we are served with this photo, they look (almost) angelic. I like this picture because it's been 4 years since the guys had a photoshoot and 10 years since an album promotion photoshoot. And yet, there they are on top of each other, still united. Well, Richard seems more united with his Till, even downright possessive, but they all seem happy to be together and that's what counts !
That's it for the official photos. For the unofficial photos, there are two that I love :
This one of Motor Vertrieb taken at a tug-of-war competition and featured in the late Gert Hof's "band biographical" book. Just because Till and Paul make me burst out laughing every time I see it.
And this one by Danny Uhlmann in 2017 at the Blue Lagoon in Iceland. It's so rare to see the six of them doing (off-stage) activities that it's touching. And I'm adding a heart to this photo for skin care !

An open farewell letter to "idol Habu Mizuho"
I first met Habu-chan in 2017, when Keyakizaka46 had just released Kaze ni Fukarete mo. However, the first MV I saw was Fukyouwaon.
When I really started following Keyaki, Habu and Neru were my favorite members. The people who were able to make me smile during one of the most tense periods of my life.
The love I felt for both of them turned out to be the same, so even though the term "kami oshi" can be summed up as a single person, I treated Habu and Neru as my kamis.
In 2019, when Neru-chan graduated, Habu-chan officially became my kami oshi. A position she still holds today, even after new members joined and I met other groups in the meantime.
I tried to find another idol to whom I could share my time, dedication, and love, but Habu-chan was unbeatable.
Over time, I became more and more obsessed with Habu (in a good and healthy way). Something about Habu-chan enchanted me in a way that no other idol had been able to before.
I believe there were several reasons for this...
One of them is the fact that we're the same age, we were both born in 1997 (I'm a month older ☺).
Another may have been their physical appearance and personality.
Habu has several physical aspects that particularly caught my eye: her hair (at the time I knew her best, it was mid-length), her height, her hands, and her neck (which I don't even accept is her least favorite part of her body). And over time, Habu became an extremely beautiful woman. In my eyes, she looked like a goddess sculpted by a superior divine force lol. Her personality was also an important point: Habu conveyed to me an energy of being someone extremely kind, cheerful, and positive; and this was confirmed over the time I spent being her fan. With each passing moment, I really realized that Habu was everything I had imagined. Confirmation of this came from her blogs, mobames, magazine, and radio interviews, which were corroborated by statements from Keyaki/Saku members, other co-workers, MCs, the habu oshi who took part in handshakes and meguris, etc. Everyone reaffirmed that Habu was an incredible person.
One characteristic that I also came to admire a lot about her was Habu's ability to be good with words. Her iconic phrases (the funniest possible) and others full of meaning delighted me even more.
But actually, I think what made my bond as a fan even stronger was that I followed Habu's growth and development as an idol.
She started to grow a lot as soon as she took part in the Girls Award (back in 2016, before I knew her), followed by her entry as an MC on radio shows (thanks to Chokotto yattemasu and Gochaten), as an MC in variety shows, taking part in Zambi's stage play, among other external activities associated with the group.
However I believe that her evolution as a model has been fundamental in making Habu-chan who she is today. Many thanks to JJ and CLASSY for giving her this opportunity and for signing her as an exclusive model in 2017 and 2021 respectively.
With this modeling career, Habu was the 1st member of the group to open an Instagram account, allowing the other members to also have this opportunity to interact more with fans, as well as promote the group.
Another pioneering move was Habu being the first member to have a fashion photobook, a departure from the usual standards for Sakamichi idols. And that's a story I really like because only I know how happy I was with "Destination" and the fact that it was exactly the kind of photobook I had always envisioned for her.
In fact, Habu-chan was a positive influence on me in the world of fashion. I've changed some habits and ways of dressing. I hope to continue following your fashion tips, Habu-sensei!
I could spend days and days telling you why Habu Mizuho is an exceptional idol. But unfortunately, the day of her graduation has arrived.
I've met many incredible people in the time I've been following her as an idol: Japanese ハブライバー (I could list several who have been super kind to me, but especially Masayo-san who was the person I had the most contact with during this time and who was VERY kind and helpful to me); ハブライバー from other countries and people who weren't even ハブライバー, but who supported Habu. I'm also grateful to have bonded with many different people, even though they live in different countries.
Now, seeing anything from Sakurazaka46 without Habu Mizuho will leave me with a huge feeling of emptiness.
I'm not sure yet how my relationship with the group will be after Habu's graduation. That's something I still can't answer...
But I'm very proud of the woman Habu-chan has become.
I know that whatever path you take now, you will be successful and will have the full support of your fans.
All I can do now is say thank you.
I'm grateful for all the happy moments you've given me during your career as an idol.
I know I wasn't as "committed" a fan as other fans. I tried to do my best to support her within my capacity and my reality. I could have been a much better fan... But I hope that somehow you know that you have a fan in Brazil who has always and will always hope that only good things happen in your life.
Thank you so much for coming into my life.
And I'll be supporting you forever.

[171222] Nell Official 2017 Photobook Fan Q&A (translation)
1. You are about to reach your 20th anniversary.. What do you think when you see fans maturing(!) together with you? Do you have any questions for the fans? Jongwan: Standing tickets or seated tickets, what’s better? Jaekyung: Though it’s intimate, since we only meet in concert halls, sometimes it feels a bit surreal^^ We can’t meet often but I’m always happy and grateful to see you… - A question for the fans / Why do you like Nell…? Junghoon: I’m always thankful. And I feel a sense of kinship with you since we’re maturing together. And of course happy that we’ve been able to be together for this long through music.
2. What part of the chicken do you guys like the best? Jongwan: Wings Jaekyung: Hahahaha / Wings vs tenderloin Junghoon: For chicken, wings are the way to go.
3. Please introduce your individual instruments! I want to organize Nell’s room. Please check any incorrect entries. Jongwan: I think they’re too many to introduce; when we record we use about 13 different guitars and 12 different synthesizers. Jaekyung: If I were to introduce the ones we use for concerts only.. Fender stratocaster (lemon) - Jeff beck signature Fender stratocaster (red) - Greg tessler masterbuilt PRS-custom24 Suhr - Scott Henderson signature Gibson 355 - Standard Gibson 355 - Historic Gibson Lespaul 59 - Historic Schecter Telecaster - Lee Jaekyung Custom model (a gift from Schecter Japan~^^) James Tyler Telecaster - Mongoose Retro Gene Baker B3 - Humburker Gene Baker B3 - P90 Morgan Acoustic Guitar - Jumbo orchestra Taylor Guitar - 414CE Nylon Bogner Shiva amp 20th anniversary Nord stage2 88
4. What is ripped jeans to Jongwan wanja-nim? Jongwan: Clothes that would be okay even if they ripped even more.
5. Which instrument does Jongwan feel the coolest while playing? Wan is cute when playing the drums! Jongwan: Guitar
6. How do each of you deal with stress? Jongwan: Alcohol, sleep Jaekyung: Deep sleep or heavy exercise Junghoon: Movies, games, music, travel Jaewon: Alcohol, friends, parties
7. I’ve just come back to Korea after studying in Russia for 6 years. I learned that Russian people all enjoy rock music (I often saw grandmothers with Nickelback songs for their ringtone and grandfathers with AC/DC for their ringtones. Seriously…!). Do you have any plans to advance into Russia? Jongwan: Spasiba Jaekyung: We went with Seo Taiji to perform in Vladivostok in 2004, and I could feel how the country loves rock music. How much they like alcohol and how cold it is also suits Nell well k I’d like to try it if we get a chance. Junghoon: Any place where people listen to our music and we can perform would be good, of course. Russia go go.
8. Is there a Korean musician who you want to be like or respect? Also, is there a person who you look at and think ‘let’s not become like them’? For the last question I’m more curious about whether you have someone like that or not, not who it is. Jongwan: I respect Lee Seunghwan-nim / Way too many Junghoon: I respect all musicians who go forward playing their own music, whether they are seniors or juniors. As for the last question, we definitely do.
9. Do you have any plans on doing this (Q&A) regularly? Aren’t you curious about the fans’ thoughts? Jongwan: We have ‘plans’. Jaekyung: I think it’d be fun to do this in some shape or form every once in a while!
10. What electronics or instruments are you interested in recently? Jongwan: UNFAIRCHILD 670 M II Junghoon: Playstation VR / Rolan Gaia
11. What song would you like to play a cover of at least once? Jaekyung: Purple Rain - Prince (even though not doing it would be better) Jongwan: Hallelujah, Jeff Buckley version
12. Any songs you want to play as Jung Jaewon band? kk Jaekyung: Beat it - Michael Jackson (even though not doing it would be better) Junghoon: Celine Dion’s Power of Love Jongwan: Nessun Dorma
13. Can you recommend us a movie, exhibition, concert, book etc that you’ve enjoyed this year? Jongwan: I, Daniel Blake Jaewon: The movie Maudie Junghoon: Manchester by the Sea, and for concerts Depeche Mode
14. If you could transcend time and space and meet one person in the whole world, who would it be? Jongwan: It’s not a person, but I’d like to see a huge dinosaur in real life. Junghoon: Rather than a meeting, I’d like to go to a Nirvana concert.
15. If you could give the fans anything (with no regards to cost, and it doesn’t need to be an object) what would it be? Jaekyung: Our unreleased songs (minus the bad ones k)
16. Jaekyung oppa, when you record entire concerts the file size must be insane, so how many external hard drives do you have? Do you have more Kumamon plushies or more external hard drives? Jaekyung: I have 5 hard drives. And I have 2 Kumamons that the fans gave to me k (the picture I uploaded on instagram was taken in a store hahaha)
17. Which out of your own songs are you the most pleased with? Jongwan: ‘What do you think’ Jaekyung: ‘Farewell’ Junghoon: ‘12 Seconds’ Jaewon: ‘12 Seconds’
18. If someone other than Jongwan hyung-nim were to take the role of vocalist in Nell, who would suit it the best? Jongwan: There’s no way.
19. Can you please show us the Selfish Love music video just one more time? Jongwan: No. Jaekyung: We can’t. Junghoon: How could we ever?
20. Jaekyung-nim, you know you’re good-looking, right? Jaekyung: Of course^^
21. I’m curious about your individual ways of overcoming painful experiences (alcohol and cigarettes, that’s no no, minus those two!) Jongwan: The thought that I would still have a hard time even if this didn’t happen. Jaekyung: If I can solve it then I do, and if I can’t then I do as much as I can, accept it and let time heal. Junghoon: I just keep thinking about it. Immerse myself in it. Then it will slowly start to get better.
22. If you only had one day left to live, how would you spend it? Jongwan: First I’d say goodbye to my family, then spend 8 hours in the studio before putting on a concert and finishing off with an afterparty with people I love. Jaekyung: I don’t know if there’s anything specific I’d want to do -- I think I’d listen to the songs we were unable to finish and then say my goodbyes. Junghoon: I’d be with my family. Jaewon: I’d watch the sunset by the ocean.
23. How come Junghoon has never once shown us a bass solo? And as you always use a pick instead of fingering (of course using a pick will sound better on some songs but), is there a reason for that? Junghoon: I will work hard.
24. How do you release everyday stress? Jongwan: Travel
25. What pictures do you use as your kakaotalk profile pictures and cover photos.. k (Jaekyung uses a cover photo of a street full of fallen leaves and no profile photo, Jaewon uses a picture from the movie Maudie)
26. I’m curious about the members’ favorite movies. Also, is there a movie that has influenced your music, like how you got your name from the movie Nell? Jongwan: Stay, Never let me go Junghoon: I like too many movies so it’s hard to choose, but Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind comes to mind. Jaewon: Lords of Dogtown, Stand By Me, Gilbert Grape
27. If you were a color, what would it be? And please tell us the reason as well. Jongwan: Grey Jaekyung: (picture of… the moon..?)
I love you. Junghoon: Me too.
28. Who cries the most out of the members? Jongwan: Me and Jaewon. Junghoon: Could be me. Jaewon: I don’t know who does the most, but Jaekyung cries the least.
29. Who do you think will get married next? Jongwan: Don’t
30. I’m sad because I can’t go to this year’s christmas concert, and I’m a 13-year fan who wishes to receive a signed CD at some point. I like you so much that I want to ask a question this badly. I love how pretty the album art is; do you decide on the design yourselves? Jongwan: We decide on the concept, the designer makes the art.
31. To. Jung Jaewon / Do you have other hobbies aside from surfing and skateboarding? Jaewon: Drawing, hiking.
32. To. NELL & SPACE BOHEMIAN / Who first coined the phrase ‘seubo-in’?? Do you like it? Jongwan: I like it. Junghoon: Was it Jongwan who used it first? I don’t know too well, but I like it.
33. Is there a singer you’d like to work with? Jaewon: The late Shin Haecheol-nim.
34. Chicken vs Pizza Jaekyung: Pizza Junghoon: Chicken Jongwan: Complete victory by the pizza
35. Jongwan oppa, I remember hearing you say on Nell’s Cruel Radio that you like to read. Please recommend me a good book. Jongwan: Blindness (José Saramago)
36. What’s the most memorable performance you’ve seen? Jaekyung: I’ve seen too many, but the ones that come to mind now are Black Sabbath in Korea, 1995 / Steve Vai in Korea, 1997 / Metallica in Korea, 1998 / Roger Waters in Korea, 2002 / Marilyn Manson in Korea, 2003 / Nine Inch Nails in Korea, 2007 / Björk in New York, 2012 / Paul McCartney in Korea, 2015 / Among those, Roger Waters’ (Pink Floyd) concert was the most memorable to me. / As for Nell, it’ll be this year’s December concert. ^^ Junghoon: That’s a difficult question. Off the top of my head, The Verve live in Japan. Their charisma was astounding.
37. Do you have any thoughts of letting us know the lyrics in the backmasked parts of your songs? Jongwan: No. Junghoon: I don’t think so.
38. Can you reveal the playlists you’ve been listening to recently? Jongwan: Currently listening to this year’s Christmas concert setlist. Jaewon: Elbow, Death Cab for Cutie.
39. What are each of your favorite foods?! Jaekyung: Galbi, lobster, soy marinated crab, (bigmac) Junghoon: Braised spicy chicken Jongwan: There’s too many. Beijing-style duck, steak, pasta, Pyongyang style cold noodles etc.
40. When will Jongwan oppa do a V app live in your house like you said you would? Junghoon: Did he say that? Jongwan: Soon.
41. Junghoon oppa, at some point you started recording the fans with your camcorder -- do you…watch those back..?? Also, you’re taking a lot of pictures with your film camera recently. Have you been influenced by Simz oppa to do that, or is there another reason? Please reveal a few cuts that you’re pleased with! Junghoon: I’ve seen all of them at least once. I edited some (of the videos) and posted them on social media. I was taking pictures with a digital camera using a filter to make the pictures look like they were taken with a film camera, and so I thought ‘if this is how it’ll turn out, I should buy an actual film camera’, so I did. I don’t know anything about photography so I’m just taking pictures with my P&S.
42. Please tell us a song you’re disappointed with from each album, or a song you don’t like, and the reason for your choices, please. Or an album you’re displeased with. Jongwan: Walk Through Me. I think we could give each song a more fitting sound if we were to record that album now. Junghoon: ‘Reflection of’, ‘Speechless’. At the end of the day, it’s a pity how they turned out. If we had been a bit more skilled at recording and writing, I think they could have turned into a little bit, or a lot better albums.
43. If you were to be reincarnated, what would you like to be born as? Jongwan: A dolphin living in a place no human has ever touched. Junghoon: Wonbin.
44. What do you think when you see your increasing amount of male fans? I’m a fanboy too, haha! Jongwan: It feels good. Jaekyung: It’s good to see. The sceaming (of the crowd) became thicker! I understand now!! Junghoon: It’s great.
45. When do you recruit workers for Space Bohemian? (My ultimate goal is to become an employee there… just wait…) Jongwan: 11AM~8PM
46. Do you use Logic (music editing software) or Pro Tools more? If you use both, which is better? Jongwan: We don’t use Logic, we use Cubase and Pro Tools. We use Cubase up until the recording, then change to Pro Tools for the final phase.
47. Junghoon-nim, please let us know what brand of sunglasses you wear! Junghoon: I wear several different ones, but my favorite is Karl Lagerfeldt.
48. I’m curious as to what you’re thinking about! Jongwan: It changes a lot. Jaekyung: I think most of what’s in my head goes into our albums! Junghoon: All kinds of tremendous desires.
49. What is Bori’s gender?! Junghoon: She’s a girl
50. Is Junghoon-nim’s Bori doing well? Do you have any plans to open a separate instagram account with just pictures of her? Junghoon: Yes, she’s doing well. I don’t think I’ll make another instagram account.
51. I’ll give you a multiple choice question. How long will you continue making music? A. Until I die / B. Until all I have left is the strength to hold a spoon / C. For 50 more years / D. Until our 70th debut anniversary Jaekyung: A Junghoon: A Jongwan: If possible, A.
52. Is it okay to ask for a signature if I see you on the street? It is okay to let you know I know who you are? I love you. Jaekyung: Yes. Junghoon: Please be our friend. Jongwan: We don’t go out a lot, so.
53. What are your favorite Coldplay / Muse songs? Any songs you intend to play live sometime? Jaekyung: Coldplay: Gravity / Muse: Exogenesis: Symphony part 3 Junghoon: Coldplay: True Love / Muse: Stockholm Syndrome
54. What’s your most used apps? Jongwan: Lotte cinema Jaekyung: Hi-Q recorder / Soundhound / Producer tools / Metronome / Boss tuner Junghoon: Naver cloud. Coupang. Jaewon: Navigation.
55. Tell us about a movie you’ve seen within the last 3 months that left a deep impression, whether it was good or bad. Junghoon: The Outlaws. “Do you know who I am?”
56. What’s your favorite time of day? Jongwan: 9PM~5AM. Jaekyung: One hour before the sun sets. Junghoon: The space between midnight and 4am. Jaewon: Just because the sun rises.
57. To Junghoon and Jaekyung: Who’s your Twice bias? Jaewon: Tzuyu.
58. To all: What’s your favorite cover of one of your songs? Jaekyung: Taeyeon’s Time Spent Walking Through Memories Jongwan: Kim Feel’s Time Spent Walking Through Memories. Jaewon: Time Spent Walking Through Memories.

New addition to collections~~
A little story: as I'm not really a magazine collector (TWICE's first non-TWICEZINE magazine I bought is the one from 2017 tho I've been into their stuff from 2015 😅) I've never thought I'd (((religiously))) buying their TWICEZINE. Not a secret anymore that you. can. always. find. the photos inside anywhere esp on twt dot com 🤣
The turning point for me was when they release TWICEZINE in the same 'format' like they do with Monograph, got some from ONCE Official Fanclub kit and then... yeah they're now this many wkwk it makes me so happy to arrange them in shelves hence started collecting. Forgot which one released first, TWICEZINE in Jeju or TWICEZINE Vol.1, but those two also made me really interested bcs so many unreleased pictorials. It's actually a bit sad that they dont release anything like TWICEZINE in Jeju anymore, the package+inclusion is still the best ngl 🥲🥲
Now that I've came this far, still thinking if I should complete the TWICEZINEs I missed... Like will there be someone selling their TWICEZINE TWICELIGHTS tho? These magazines slash photobooks are like the very rare living proof of twiceland momentum 😂
That's it... Thank you for whoever reading this and if you're a TWICE stuff collector too, hope you'll complete whatever you're targeting asap~!

[Personal] Happy Birthday♡
it’s this time of the year again^^
Happy, Happy B-Day Yuuichi-kun♡
off to one of my favourite posts: tell me about your №1
I really ♡ Nakamura Yuuichi (中村優一; ← actor, not seiyuu!!!! )
He is and will ever be the person I will LOVE the most of all those j-actors^^
He is such a lovely dork and I really like his smile.
Some facts first:
① born October 8, 1987 [he is 2½ weeks older than me笑] ② nickname ~Channaka~「ちゃんなか」(Naka-chan backwards) ③ best known for his role ‘Sakurai Yuuto’ (Kamen Rider Zeronos) in Kamen Rider Den-O (2007)… but did you know that he actually played ‘Kiriya Kyousuke’ in ‘Kamen Rider Hibiki’ (the first actor to portray 2 Kamen Rider)
④ assigned to G-Star.Pro ( ジースター・プロ ) ⑤ has 2 Chihuahua ~Zero~ (Kamen Rider Zeronos) & ~Spica~ ↓ ↓ ↓ (Futatsu no Spica)
⑥ was part of Johnny’s Jr. (~2003)
⑦ had poor health as a child (asthma) [same here!!! in and out of the hospital] ⑧ loves reading shoujo-manga (ex: Good Morning Call グッドモーニング・コール / he had a cameo in the drama adaptation epi.15/16) and listening to jpop (Shounan no Kaze, Kis-My-Ft2, EXILE, CHEMISTRY, AAA ← friends with Nishijima Takahiro & Atae Shinjirou since ‘Delicious Gakuin’) ⑨ former member of a group of actors called D-Boys
as I talked about in one of my earlier posts… I really feel connected to Channaka and he kinda ‘helped’ me during the hardest time of my life. [check out my post about ‘Doukyuusei’ if you want to know why^^]
… when I heard he would be in the special unit called D☆DATE (together with Araki Hirofumi, Igarashi Shunji, Seto Koji & the new member Horii Arata) in 2010, I was so happy for him… because he deserved some more attention! He is one of the few boys who didn’t act in Tenimyu and that was really hard for him, because most of the D-Boys acted in it and became kind of “famous” for it.
In interviews he often talked about that he couldn’t get over the fact the he didn’t have a chance to be in Tenimyu and he couldn’t understand why, especially because he came out first at the 1st D-Boys audition.
And finally he got the attention he deserves, the most unthinkable thing ever happened. Right before his new stageplay (D-BOYS STAGE 2010 trial-2 ラストゲーム ) it was announced that he will take a break from work to cure his ‘chronicle back pain’. It was a huge shock for me because they announced it right before I moved to Japan. I still remember that I was sitting on my packed boxes in the livingroom when my friend called and told me the news…
almost a 1 year later we still had no real information about his condition… it was really depressing. I went to almost all D☆DATE events wearing orange things/stars (his member colour) and was even on TV (はなまるマーケット hanamaru market) with these ↓ ↓ ↓ uchiwas ↓ ↓ ↓ just to show that we were still waiting for him T^T
At the 1st Concert Tour of D☆DATE we finally got some ‘news’. They talked about him, said that it’s sad he couldn’t make it in time for the concert, but he would be trying his best to show up on stage again as soon as possible. I was crying while they showed pictures of him during the con because I felt so helpless.
After all the terrible things that happend in the first half of 2011 (the Fukushima-incident, the sudden death of my aunt, trouble with my former workplace…) I was kinda happy to hear that Channaka was still part of the group and the members where all waiting for his comeback!!! I thought that it would be only a matter of time until I could finally see him safe and sound on stage again… I was soooo motivated that I created a photo album with many pictures from fans all around the world to cheer him up and show him that soooooooooooo many people are waiting for him!!! I wrote the first fanletter (~8pages) of my life and told him that his fans would always support him and would wait for him as long as it would take for him to recover… and I wrote something that some fans would never understand… ‘If you wanna quit, don’t worry about us… we will respect your decision!!’ actually there is a reason why I wrote something like that…
I heard from a friend who worked as a model for Watanabe Enertainment, that he had no ‘back-pain-problems’ at all!!! He was suffering from depression… [he had a hard time in August 2010 and realised that he couldn’t perform with this unstable condition, so he stopped coming to rehearsal 2 weeks before the actual stage… I can understand that the other D-Boys member were not amused about it… but what I heard from my friend made me really sad: they started to bully Channaka and told him to quit… especially the D☆DATE members didn’t want him to come back!!!… from my experience with the industry in Japan, this is quite common (especially Johnny’s Enertainment) but I still find it hard to understand] ← I got this information from a friend, no official statement!!! + I don’t hate any D-Boys members… I’m just sad about the fact at all!!!
And than,on November 8th, 2011 (4 weeks after I handed out my letter & 2 weeks after my B-day) it was announced that he would retire from D☆DATE/D-Boys _| ̄|○ (I had never expected that this would happen… I cried a lot!! who would think that this little sentences in a little fanletter from a little foreign girl would come reality. I don’t believe that it was the trigger for his decision… but still… the timing… I was shocked) The ‘official’ statement was ‘in order to recover he needs to conentrate on rehabilation more’… but I couldn’t believe this anymore!!!
The following year Watanabe announced that he would completely retire from the entertainment world and I was crashed… I met soooo many people from the industry (not only because I went to a lot of events… my job gave me the opportunity to meet a lot of people in private) but the only person I ever wished to meet in Japan ‘disappeared’ and my chances to ever see him in person were almost 0…
And than in the beginning of 2013, he all of a sudden started his new blog where he posted pictures of him posing with friends (O_O) Rumors started to spread that he opened up a café/bakery with a friend (but I have no detailed information about that). I was so relieved that he was doing fine^^
AAAAAAAND 1½ years later the best thing ever happened!!!! August 30th, 2014: Nakamura Yuuichi returned to the entertainment industry. I was jumping up and down in my room, called my best friend (who isn’t even a fan at all笑) and poured my whole soul out^^
It took a while for him to come back on screen, but it was worth waiting for!!! The first role he represented after his comeback was ‘Sakurai Yuuto’ in ‘Superhero Taisen GP Kamen Rider 3 Gou’ (スーパーヒーロー大戦GP 仮面ライダー3号)
I think you get it by now… Kamen Rider Den-O (Sakurai Yuuto/Ootsuka Houchuu aka Denebe) means a lot to him!!! and if you are still not convinced… try to listen to the recording from ‘Kamen-Raji-Ranger 仮面ラジレンジャー’ I was at the venue when they recorded the show T^T aaaaaand just for the records…
this was the first time seeing him in person right in front of me!!!!!!!!!!!!! (August 18th, 2015 will go down in history^^) can you believe it… it took me almost 5 years to meet him (O_O)
(the pic I posted on twitter after I saw his post^^)
since then he acted in soooo many great productions and had a few leading roles (薄桜鬼SSL ~sweet school life~ / 舞台 裁判長!ここは懲役4年でどうすか 2016 / スレイブメン / 舞台 警視庁抜刀課 / 舞台 BRAVE10/ 舞台版 ヘルプマン! ~監査編~ / 最後の晩ごはん)
Seeing him working this hard after all that happend in the past, I decided that I will follow and support him as a fan for the rest of my life笑 He will always be my №1 ♡
If you feel like supporting him or just got interested in him… here are some things I recommend:
① check out his: twitter official blog wikipedia
② (re-)watch Kamen Rider Den-O
③ take a look at his photobooks^^
1st shashinshuu (2008)
2nd photobook (2010)
aaaand his newest photobook (was released October 8th, 2017 to celebrate his 30th B-day)
④ if you want to get emotional… watch:
Doukyuusei [同級生] Futatsu no Spica [ふたつのスピカ] D-Boys Stage Vol.3: Karasu [10 D-BOYS STAGE vol.3「鴉~KARASU~」-10]
⑤ or consider buying any kind of media you might be interested in^^
if you made it to this point… thx for sticking along!!!! ♡ I would love to hear/read from you about your №1 and maybe some thoughts about Nakamura Yuuichi^^ (maybe you want to make your own post and add @leenaevilin to it so I get notified)

Documenting 2: Visual Research
Martin Parr
Martin Parr is an English documentary photographer who is best known for his photography of the tradition of the Great British Holiday. He is probably my favourite photographer in the world, as I love how honestly and candidly he captures life. He has had around 40 solo photobooks published, and has featured in around 80 exhibitions worldwide. When asked about the art of documenting people through photography, and the ethics involved, he said the following:
“I think that all photography involving people has an element of exploitation, and therefore I am no exception. However it would be a very sad world if photographers were not allowed to photograph in public places. I often think of what I photograph as a soap opera where I am waiting for the right cast to fall into place. In more recent years I have photographed much closer where bits of people and food become part of the big picture, and one advantage of this is that it means people are less recognisable.”
Tish Murtha
Tish Murtha was a Northern English documentary photographer who took black and white photos to create a record of youth unemployment, juvenile jazz bands, kids in Elswick in South Shields, and a series of photos of London by night. Her work is very striking and raw, the black and white photography really adds a sort of grit and solemness to her photographs.
Francesco Faraci
Faraci is a Sicillian street photographer. I think his work is really beautiful and raw, and much like a contemporary version of Tish Murtha’s work.
Jason Florio
Jason Florio is an English documentary photographer. This photoseries is called Destination Europe, and it shows the journey of refugees from Libya to Europe. He has done several documentation projects all around the world, and Destination Europe was one that won him a Magnum Photography Award in 2017. These photos are seriously effecting - they are beautiful and devastating, and tell a story brilliantly. This is documentary photography with a real purpose and meaning. These photos are heartbreaking.
Keir Edmonds
“Berlin-based English urban sketching artist Keir Edmonds keeps a visual diary that illustrates his life as an expat in Germany’s capital. Believing that “you have to put in 10,000 hours to get really good at something,” the self-confessed “Englishman lost in Berlin” carries a sketchbook and pen everywhere he goes. From local architecture to summertime canals and graffiti-covered streets, his growing portfolio captures the undeniable charm of the city.
Edmonds started keeping sketchbook journals in 2015 with the goal to improve his skills in observational drawing.”
Sam Winston
Sam Winston is an artist based in London, who says his “practice is concerned with language not only as a carrier of messages but also as a visual form in and of itself”. He is known for his typography and his abstract illustration, having worked with some of the biggest art galleries in the world.
These images are from a project he undertook called 7 days - “a long durational studio work where the artist lived without sight for seven days and nights. Repeatedly transcribing five sentences the image created is without any visual reference.”
Sam says, “The idea of going ‘under’ or without images fascinated me. I had read of yogis spending years in complete darkness and psychologists running light deprivation studies but for me the question was - what landscapes are available to the artist when they are only given an internal view for seven days?
Biologically speaking the absence of daylight triggers large hormone imbalances in the pineal glad located in the centre of the brain. This gland normally releases melatonin which is the hormone that regulates sleep - and with this out of balance - you will quickly find yourself operating outside of conventional time.”
This method of abstract documentation is something I find very intriguing. As a designer, you have information input into you and it is your job to translate this meaningfully into the world. If we restrict our outputs and inputs, and put ourselves under strictor creative parameters, then as creatives we we surely find a way to make great work through the power of thinking ourelves out of those restrictions.
1. ‘A durational work where a pencil line records the length of every exhalation. The length of each line marks the length of time it takes to exhale. These marks were recorded over a 15 hour day without break. “The premise is deceptively simple - marking either an exhalation or inhalation with a pencil line - the length of the duration of a breath. Yet the cumulative effect of this action is a map that reveals a unique bridge between our unconscious and conscious functioning. It is also a refocusing of attention to our dependent relationship within the aerobic world.”
2. ‘An on going series of collages looking a various components of drawing. Each image contains one complete pencil.“This is the beginnings of a process looking at the materiality of the objects that inform artistic practice. By literally exploding, dissolving and collaging broken down artists tools we reveal their history and legacy. Whether the pencil graphite is from mines in China or the New Mexican cotton farms that make rag made paper - each artwork is a testimony to a globalized economy and the unseen geography of the tools by which we make art. “‘
3. ‘Birth day is an project that charts the 183,600 lives that come into being on the planet over a period of 12 hours. The participants draw circles to remember loved ones and also register their names in writing. In this way the public are asked to connect their own personal narrative to the much broader theme of population growth and decline.“By the time you’ve read this sentence three people have been born into the world.From observing this process I have noticed that the moment a person draws a circle (and it has a name) the artwork stops being about statistics and becomes a wall of brothers, sisters, mothers etc - in this particular case representing 260,000 lives that are born and die in 12 hours.”’
The text of Shakespeare’s Romeo & Juliet was read and categorised into three emotional states – passion, rage & solace. Once theses these three categories of text were typeset & printed they became the material for three the hand cut collages. The final work is the combined print of the typeset category and the hand cut collage.
Nathalie Miebach
Boston-based conceptual artist Nathalie Miebach weaves colorful, complex sculptures using rope, wood, paper, fibers, and data from weather events. Two of the artist’s recent series explore the impact of storm waters on our lives and on marine ecosystems, with variables like wind and temperature (and the harmony of the composition) often informing the rainbow of colors used to translate the data into a three-dimensional structure.
Priscilla Coleman
Priscilla Coleman is a courtroom illustrator. This is a dying art and in the UK there are only four official courtroom illustrators left. “It’s as if you’re memorising for a test,” she tells It’s Nice That. “You forget the details so you have to write something that will trigger your memory. Once I had to draw a line of airline hijackers, and they all had black hair but different hairstyles. One had long sideburns so I wrote Elvis, one was skinny so I wrote ‘skeleton man’, for others I wrote ‘potato nose’ or ‘fried hair’ or for another, I wrote the name of an ex-boyfriend he reminded me of! People’s faces are fascinating.”
Scott Elmquist
This man is a very inspiring documentary photographer. The last image above is an extremely powerful photograph to me. It shows black youth playing basketball under the defaced statue of a coloniser. Amazing. Above that is part of his Americana documentary photography series, capturing rural midwestern America and it’s communities.

as a shipper, i really want to say they’re dating but as a psych major the best i can say is that the evidence supports the hypothesis, especially with limited amount of observational data. i’m super intrigued by your blog and i think you make some great points but i can see how people might be irked cus i’ve been taught that without objective data and elimination of possible third variables, you can’t confirm causation, with observational data like this the best you can do is correlation
The people who are irked are not those who care about scientific accuracy. If you’ve read through the blog, you’ve seen how many “he looked at a girl - they are dating”, “JohnDo are so close lately - they are dating” I get.
I do eliminate possible third variables and scearios. “Dating” is a very simple answer, it really doesn’t need science with its rules, it’s not a new field of unexplored. What you need is attention and logic. The only reason I state I’m a scientist is to explain my approach, that I observe without a bias and that I have experience of studying behaviour. Again, I don’t say “blindly believe”. You can agree, you can disagree after reading what I’ve written, it’s up to you.
I’m tired of repeating myself, but it is a very simple thing, that lays at the base of everything. All friends in 127 freely express their closeness, their friendfship. They ship each other, they kiss each other on the cheek (well, Hyuk tries), they use photos of each other as wallpaper for the phone, they say “It’s love/he is love” on TV. WinWin and Yuta were fake-married with rings and witnesses, for crying out loud. Nobody stops the members. Except Jaedo.
Doyoung and Jaehyun were always the best of friends. Jaehyun never shied away from showing his affection and admiration in the past. Now Jaedo can’t even go sightseeing without a chaperone. Can’t room in hotels with each other.
Let’s say SM wants to preserve Jaehyun’s straight Prince Charming image, cool down Jaedo shippers, so the managers told Jae to avoid Do. Doesn’t work. Jaehyun is shipped with Taeyong and is made to do fanservice with him. Jaedo are paired together for photoshoots and in MV’s like HtoH. SM prints the Saitama hug in the official photobook and publishes a picture from the recent Life with Jaehyun making heart-eyes at Do, cutting food.
Let’s say Jae and Do got in a big fight, actually hate each other now and have to pretend. One look at their laughing selves during Weekly Idol from 2019 and this theory becomes dust. I’ve written many a word showing how really close they are, super close.
Let’s say Jaehyun confessed, got rejected and now they try to stay friends and collegues. First of all, this scenario doesn’t explain avoidance of each other during ISAC and other public events, while being exceptionally agreebale with each other during vlives. Secondly, Jaehyun not only flirts, he makes a lot of gestures, that friends don’t do if there are unrequired feelings. Matching clothes is one of them. Openly oggling Doyoung (and the latter not minding) is another. Thirdly. We had this period in 2017. It’s possible to compare. Doyoung too protected Jae’s ass from Woo’s hands. He can’t do it unless he accepts Jae’s feelings. He is not a person to play with feelings of another. There are moments that cearly show that Jae finds Do arousing and is physically noticeably affected. There are no clear moments with Do, but there are subtle things indicating that he is sexually interested in men and it’s well known he finds Jae very attractive.
“Dating” easily explains all the different things we can observe: being moroze in public, red ears and faces during jokes about expensive presents, jealosy towards other members and fans, matching clothes, the push of JohnDo and DoYu, taboo on being roomamates, how other members treat them as a couple, thirdwheeling, Do reacting with a smile to Jae’s teasing, Jaeyoung troubles, the change of dynamic between Jae and Do, etc.
Occam’s razor is the problem-solving principle that states that “Entities should not be multiplied without necessity.” I.e. the simplest answer is probably true. And dating is the simplest answer that fits everything.
Really, you treat the problem like we discuss Jaedo being aliens.

BAP Noir limited edition Daehyun vers. + yongguk card + daehyun mini poster card - excellent condition $75 (this is a limited edition and i literally could not find one priced under $90 even if used which is why it’s priced so high. best offer or if you find ones listed for more normal prices i will honor that once i have confirmed it’s the same vers/album and it’s legit)

All albums have photobooks even if not specified. Basically all of these i’ve looked through once or twice and then left on a shelf so all the photobooks are in very nice condition and hardly used. i am not selling photocards/photobook separately from albums. if you only want a specific item from the album you still have to pay full price lol
if you are interested you can shoot me a DM (or an ask and then i’ll DM you) and i can send more pictures of the insides of albums, the disks, photocards, photobooks, closer photos of the outside of the album etc.!! basically if you have any questions/want more photos of specific items or want to buy please send me a DM. i will also take best offers however you’ll probably be last in line and waiting a while until i decide whether or not to take you up on the price, but you are free to shoot your best shot
i’m going to accept payments via paypal (which we can discuss in DM) and i ask that payment be made before i send the albums out since i will need to cover shipping! i’m not quite sure how shipping overseas works but as of right now i will accept that (i’ll get more info from the post office and give an update if anything changes)
this is very long and i apologize but even if you aren’t interested if you could spread around that would be fantastic!! again, if you have any questions pls don’t hesitate to send me an ask or a DM.
thank you!!

Introduction
“Actually, it has a profound meaning. As we mentioned before, 'Bangtan' literally means bullet-proof. So, it means that we aim to block oppression and discrimination that rain on adolescents like bullets, and we protect their values and ideals.”
- j-hope, Super Junior's Kiss the Radio, 130629 (trans by Bangtan Subs)
BTS is a Korean group made of 7 young men that debuted on the 13 June 2013. If you're not already familiar with them, you can check:

BTS has offered an impressive amount of content to their fans. They have at least two musical releases each year, to which is added other content mainly consisting of paid boxes including a DVD, a photobook and goodies, as well as free videos published on the web. You can refer to the "other content" section for more information.
To allow such productivity without getting exhausted, BTS works on a tight schedule and receives help from several collaborators, from both inside and outside their company Big Hit. As RM once tweeted: "Teamwork makes the dream work and dream makes the team work." Concerning the way they produce their music, we don't know much but thanks to notably the press conference for Love Yourself 轉 Tear, discussions with DJ Swivel and Arcade, and some behind-the-scenes anecdotes, here's a possible organization:
The creation of the series is what RM called the "planning phase". It allows them to choose a concept and to set an optimal schedule to fit all the DVDs and albums releases. It usually covers one or two years. Between 2016 and 2017, Big Hit and BTS seized the chance that success gave them to dream bigger and actually organize all their series into the Reflection of Youth (see the discography section). On that occasion, they also came with the BU, a cross-media fictional story set in BTS' works. Even more little is known about the BU's creation. The name of Linn Choi is credited for the original story in some videos' description. As the BU is built after the already existing MVs, it only includes some of them, in order to have a cohesive story that was then extended in other medias. You can refer to the BU section for more details. The Reflection of Youth and the BU are two projects following Big Hit's will to change the music industry by offering quality and cross-media products. You can refer to Big Hit Corporate Briefing with the community for a complete explanation.
BTS didn't settle for just this amazing content though. They have denounced several problems of the society in their songs and showed great open-mindedness. They've also revealed their philanthropy through several donations and a UNICEF campaign named Love Myself (website) that was notably completed by a speech from RM at the United Nations in 2018. They thus illustrate Big Hit's motto: "Artists and music for healing" as well as Bang Shihyuk's philosophy. In 2020, BTS was invited to share a word with the world on three occasions: at the Dear Class of 2020, a virtual commencement celebration bringing together inspirational leaders and artists to celebrate graduates, their families, and their communities, at the first Youth Day, and at the 75th UN General Assembly. Following their examples, a lot of ARMY invested themselves in great causes. We have One In An ARMY, a group organizing charity projects, ARMY Academy, several accounts offering free academic tutoring, or BTS ARMY Kitchen who provides recipes and tips. Several fansites have also organized charity projects to celebrate the boys' birthdays.
_________
The enthusiasm around BTS and the impressive quality of their works resulted as well in academic studies. Professor Lee Jiyoung (Twitter) thus published BTS, Art Revolution and music critic Kim Youngdae (Twitter) released BTS The Review: A Comprehensive Look at the Music of BTS. Professor Lee made a lecture on the same theme as her book: "BTS, set a new form of arts". She also appeared in "15 min that change the world", a lecture show, where she talked about the subject "BTS and Army Grow Together, Fighting Against Prejudice" Between the 26 and 28 August 2019, a forum, "BTS Beyond & Behind" (official website in Korean, Youtube channel with English subtitles) was held in Seoul. It was mentioned on SBS News, Yonhap News, and Korea Now. You can also find pictures of the presentation on Colette Balmain's Twitter (here), as well as related articles in Italian ARMY's thread. Mayemong, an artist who performed during the forum, also released a video about it.
A seminar called "K-pop Beyond BTS: Media Technology, Creative Industries and Fandom Culture," organized by the Division of Culture and Gender Studies at the Korean Society for Journalism & Communication Studies and sponsored by BigHit also happened. Big Hit shared a video of it. Here's also a Korean article about it and a Twitter thread from the K-pop section at The Korea Herald.
A conference about BTS was also held at Kingston University in January 2020.

MARCH 2020 DIMENSIONS ENTERTAINMENT SCHEDULES & REVIEW
Members may earn 3 points each (up to 6 points) for writing, by the end of April 7 KST:
A solo para of 400+ words based on their monthly schedule (does not count toward your monthly total).
A thread of six posts (three per participant, including the starter) based on their monthly schedule.
Threads do not have to take place directly during an important date listed on the schedule, but must be related to what the muse is mentioned to be doing in the paragraph explaining their schedule/the company’s schedule for the month and/or their thoughts on the mentioned activities or lack thereof.
These schedules may be updated throughout the month if new information needs to be added.
Reminder: February schedule posts are due by the end of March 7 KST.
Overall Company
To celebrate their new building and the success that has let up to being able to move into it, the company is throwing a party for all employees on March 24. Attendance is listed as non-mandatory, but, for idols, management will be strongly insisting they attend in order to show respect and thankfulness for the work of all of the other employees. It will be hard to get out of without a good reason, but there will be free food and drinks, though it’s a company party, so nothing will be permitted to get too out of hand.
Important dates:
March 24: Idol and staff party at Dimensions Entertainment Headquarters.
Dimensions Soloist 1
After a filming for online video series What The?! ASMR, where she’ll be asked to bring three items of her own choice to do ASMR with, the month is pretty low intensity, as she may be growing used to in the time since her last comeback. Her team is constantly reviewing potential songs, but haven’t locked one in as a comeback title track yet. She will be given the news that Dimensions will be having all three of their soloists participate in busking next month to help promote the new soloist, though, so she’s permitted to choose and practice up to six songs of her choice, though this must include her most recent title track as well as at least one other title track of her choice and at least one vocal or dance cover of her choice. She’s allowed to perform a song with one or both of the other soloists if she’d like.
Important dates:
March 8: What The ASMR filming.
Dimensions Soloist 2
To celebrate his second debut anniversary, he’ll be throwing a fan meeting at Yonsei University as a follow-up to his fan meeting in Bangkok last month. His official lightstick will be released on the first of the month is celebration of his approaching anniversary as well. As far as comeback prep goes, he’s expected to rehearse for his live performances since he’ll be playing acoustic guitar for both the title track and b-side “White” stages. He’ll also shoot for the album’s photobook. He will also be given the news that Dimensions will be having all three of their soloists participate in busking next month to help promote the new soloist, though, so he’s permitted to choose and practice up to six songs of his choice, though this must include his most recent title track as well as at least one other title track of his choice and at least one vocal of his choice. He’s allowed to perform a song with one or both of the other soloists if he’d like.
Important dates:
March 8: Be Happy fanmeeting at Yonsei University Auditorium in Seoul, South Korea.
March 14: Photobook shoot.
March 30: Performance at Seoul Spring Festival Day Concert (see event).
Dimensions Soloist 3
Her debut is next month so the bulk of final preparations are underway. Since the company stylists don’t already have her measurements, she’ll have two fittings for her music video and stage outfits before taking off to New Zealand to shoot her teaser photos and music video. Next month, she’ll participate in busking with the company’s other two soloists to help promote her debut. She’ll mostly be performing her album songs, but she’ll be permitted one vocal cover of her choice to practice this month and perform next month if she so wishes.
Important dates:
March 8: First MV and stage outfit fittings.
March 15: Second MV and stage outfit fittings.
March 18-20: “I” MV filming in Auckland, New Zealand
March 18: Teaser photo shoot.
March 30: Performance at Seoul Spring Festival Day Concert (see event).
Gal.actic
Music show promotions end mid-month without much eventfulness, which is actually a good thing considering Gal.actic’s track record. Next month, the group will be holding a fan meeting in Guangzhou, China, which will be shortly followed by a mini concert in Seoul in May, so they’ll be in rehearsals for that this month. They’ll mostly be performing their most recent title tracks and their most popular ones, but each member will be granted a solo stage to perform one song of their choice. This can be a cover or a solo song they’ve released.
Important dates:
March 12: End of music show promotions.
March 30: Performance at Seoul Spring Festival Day Concert (see event).
Alien
As promised, March is the final month of touring before they get a break from large scale concerts for a while. They’re in the States for two weeks out of the month before they return to Seoul and they’ll be going back next month. Fans have been demanding a break, but Dimensions has too much in the plans for Alien to grant them one, and, instead, while on tour, the members will record another new English song, “Love U”. Once they return to Seoul, it will be time to record the songs they haven’t yet recorded for their next Japanese album.
Important dates:
March 5: We Are Here tour concert at Verizon Theatre in Dallas, TX, USA.
March 6: Release of “Who Do U Love ft. French Montana”.
March 7: We Are Here tour concert at Smart Financial Centre in Houston, TX, USA.
March 10: We Are Here tour concert at Fox Theatre in Atlanta, GA, USA.
March 14: We Are Here tour concert at Hulu Theater in New York, NY, USA.
March 17: We Are Here tour concert at Rosemont Theatre in Chicago, IL, USA.
March 19: We Are Here tour concert at Staples Center in Los Angeles, CA, USA.
MARS
Their comeback is still two months off, but the MARS members must begin learning the choreography for their title track this month as Dimensions would like the choreography to be as strong as MARS is known for even though their concept this time is lighter than their most successful comebacks have been in order to fit the late spring/early summer season. The members will also go in to try out potential outfits for promotions ahead of filming their music video next month.
Important dates:
March 16: MV and stage outfit fittings.
7ROPHY
7ROPHY were promised to begin working on another comeback this month and management weren’t lying. From the beginning of the month, they’ll have a concept meeting for their comeback and then begin recording the chosen songs for the track list. They’ll be making their comeback in May, but their fifth anniversary since debut is this month. Four days before their anniversary, they’ll be in Taipei, Taiwan to hold their first solo fan meeting for Taiwanese fans. The set list will be pretty standard with their top title tracks and most recent b-sides. For their anniversary, each member will be asked to film a video with a message to fans.
Important dates:
March 12: Filming of fifth anniversary video messages to fans.
March 15: 7ROPHY 1st Fanmeeting in Taipei at ATT SHowbox in Taipei, Taiwan.
March 19: Fifth anniversary videos released.
Unity
The beginning of the month is the busiest for Unity members. They have yet another magazine photo shoot and then will be flying out on March 8 to the US to perform in Texas, before returning to Seoul on the 11th. From the 12th to the 18th, all members will be granted a vacation by Dimensions unless they have solo schedules to attend during that time. After returning from vacation, the members will have rehearsals in preparation for their Japanese tour dates next month.
Important dates:
March 6: Photo shoot for KStyle’s April issue.
March 10: Performance at RodeoHouston at NRG Stadium in Houston, TX, USA.
March 12-18: Vacation.
March 16: Release of School 2017 OST ��Stay In My Life”.
March 30: Performance at Seoul Spring Festival Day Concert (see event).
↳ CHAMPION
Throughout the beginning of the month, the members will continue to meet up at the BC Entertainment building to rehearse choreography so that by the 20th, they’re prepared to leave on a short trip to Dubai to film parts of the music video for their sub-unit debut title track. In the days following their return, they’ll be busy with more promotional content filming. Fans are sure to notice that the same group of idols that was seen at the BC building is now taking the same flight out of the airport, but BC and Dimensions continue to not confirm anything to keep fans talking.
Important dates:
March 20-22: Trip to Dubai for “Jopping” MV filming.
March 23: CHAMPION focus trailer video [2] [3] filming.
March 24: CHAMPION group trailer video filming.
March 25: Additional “Jopping” MV filming.
March 26: Album photoshoot [2] [3]
Lucid
Compared to their jam-packed schedule over the last few months, March is more relaxed even though it’s the last month before their comeback month. Their album has been recorded so the focus is on choreography this month, as well as fittings and photo shoots for both the teaser photos and the album photo book. The concept of one of the versions of the album will be photos taken by the members of the other members, so each member will be provided a camera to take teaser photos with while shooting that concept version.
Important dates:
March 9: MV and stage outfit fittings.
March 12: Teaser photo and photo book shoot.
March 16: Release of “Full Moon” performance video.
March 30: Performance at Seoul Spring Festival Day Concert (see event).
