Proud to say I am a fellow Army and someone who loves Kpop in general! Basically I’ll just be giving out my opinions on all things Kpop that I find in the media and give my honest thoughts on songs as well as well other things related to Kpop! I honestly don’t know how many times I’m going to change my blog name but we’ll see, lol.
Did anyone else know about this collaboration?! Because I haven’t at all! 😂 If you don’t know what I’m taking about, it’s about J-Hope’s new album Chicken Noodle Soup! Apparently this time he is collaborating with Becky G in the new up coming album.
The album is supposed to be released tomorrow (Friday 27) at 5 am. I’m so glad I figured this out today but upset because I have to wait for HOURS now. 😂
Also yes, the album is literally called Chicken Noodle Soup. But it’s abbreviated to CNS which I am thankful for because writing out the whole thing is gonna take long and take up a lot of characters when you want to type your reaction.
I hope us as a K-Pop fandom will help J-Hope and Becky by streaming the album! Let’s start working once it’s out! 💪😂
It’s finally out! The MV I was waiting for is finally out!! KARD’s Dumb Litty!
I cannot express the visuals of this MV it’s absolutely amazing and oh my god they’re literally Queens and King’s at this point. 😂 After watching the dance teaser over, and over, and over again I finally get to see it!! But like why are they so pretty and handsome?! Like literally, look at this!
I mean, if this isn’t your definition of amazing....then I don’t know what is. 😂 And to be honest I took a lot of picture of them as well. I mean, I couldn’t just choose one! Tumblr posts have a photo limit of ten and I definitely have more than ten. 🤣 I mean I also wanted to add like gifs to the post to show the choreography and this cool transition as well! But I don’t know any good apps to do that...I’ll figure it out.
But anyway, can I just say, how proud I am of BM? He produced the song and it’s amazing! I really love what he did and I personally really love the song as well! He must’ve worked so hard to make this song amazing as it is. I mean, I honestly believe that every producer or someone who makes music in general works really hard to make the music they produce. It also mostly likely take up a lot of time. And honestly artists gain my respect if they have to write lyrics, practice the choreography, figure out how they’re going to sing their part, and produce a song. Actually, any artists who does any of that gains my respect.
But knowing how tough the K-POP industry must be I wonder how he balances that out with his other stuff. And I really hope that they get enough rest and didn’t overworked themselves too much. So hopefully KARD is probably getting some rest before their comeback on stage! I’m really proud of them!
Also, I’m going to update this post later so that I can really give the review I want to give to this amazing song and MV. I just got really excited when it came out that I really wasn’t thinking. Lol 😂
Anyway, I’m going to update this hopefully later in the day so that I can give a proper review. Because honestly, I was just so excited that it came out that I just had to post about. 😆
I hope you guys will help to support KARD! Love Y’all!
With that out of the way 😂 There are also two other small details some people noticed and others haven’t quite because of the angle of the picture and how blurry it seemed. That small detail is on his middle finger which I saw was circular and had a face on it.
At first I wasn’t sure what it was and I thought that it might have been Shooky so I looked him up. None of the expressions on google matched on what was drawn on Jungkook’s hand. So I thought again what else would be circular and have a face? Oh yeah, an emoji! But the problem was what emoji was it cause it was kinda hard to tell from the angle of the picture. I had one in mind but for some reason I couldn’t picture it in my mind since it wasn’t an emoji I would regularly use.
Which emoji am I talking about? This one right here: 🥴
If you compare them you’ll see that the emoji and and the drawing seem to match. You can slightly tell with the left eye and the mouth. Finally there is another detail on the his hand which believe me I tried to figure out but at the end I couldn’t . This detail is located at the thumb.
So if anyone has any idea what that could be... can you please tell me? 😂 But hopefully it will be revealed soon!
Anyway here is the full drawing of what we got so far for Jungkook’s tattoo and sorry if it’s bad but I believe it give you the general idea of how it looks like 😅😬😆:
I didn’t draw the hand, I just kinda found it and cropped it and then added in the design of Jungkook’s tattoo. Also a bit of a disclaimer, I’m not a 100% sure if the crosses are crosses they could be like the star that looks like this: ✨. But to me it looks like crosses so I’m just going to roll with it!
Drawing Credit for hand- Juliana Sasi
Anyway I hoped this helped you figure out the meaning of the tatto and what it potentially looks like!
I just want to say one thing. what you guys are doing with jeongguk is unacceptable! It’s not just about yesterday’s rumor/scandal but everything that’s been happening to him. (with bangtan too but i’ll focus on jeongguk) the comments you are making about his appearance, about his friends, about his personal life are not something you make to anyone.
let jeongguk live his life!!! let him do whatever he wants with his looks!!! let him have a normal life too just like anyone else!!!jeongguk is an idol but he doesn’t belong to you.
I just feel this was the worst timing ever to keep saying negative things about him. this year jeongguk showed us that he is thinking alot about him as a person and as a singer. and the way he talks about it sounds like its not something simple that is happening to him.
“before, i thought the image of myself on the stage and off the stage, meaning jungkook, the singer and jungkook, as a person was very different. it felt like that to me. I’m working on the differences, trying to be same on or off stage.”
jeongguk wrote a song called decalcomania that he could be singing about himself as bts’ Jungkook and jeon jeongguk.
jeongguk mentions that he likes tattoos literally since one of his first interviews. but he refrained from it because his “fans” didn’t like it.
decided to keep the image of ‘pretty/young boy’ because that’s what the fans and company wanted.
I can stay here all day talking about the things he has done for us. jeongguk is one of the sweetest, kindest, purest, cutest, loveliest and most precious person in this world! he doesn’t deserve what people are doing to him.
you don’t you like a tattoo? its alright, you have every right not to. you don’t like long hair? okay. if you don’t like something then you just don’t do them. people are not your property. you can’t say what people can and cannot do with their lives.
I am disappointed but not surprised by all these comments. the fans who should support their idols are also the ones who put them down. jeongguk deserves the world but the world doesn’t deserve him.
I’m sorry for my poor and bad english. english is not my first language.
I’m like so disappointed in myself by not figuring out who they are by now? YouTube how dare you not recommend me their video? 😂 Once I heard Movie Star that was when I knew I was hooked! They sucked me in with their talent and charms.... 😆
Ok here’s the thing. Few weeks ago 1theK releases a post that Q’s dance Class has been postponed to a later date. I scroll to the comments and I’m glad there’s people that know how to chill. Others not so much.
What I mean by that is that from the comments, there was someone or two that probably made a honest mistake. What’s that mistake? Thinking that the people in the picture were BTS but were actually the Boyz. And I agree with a comment that I saw more people saying that they’re not BTS and no comments saying they are. I probably have to scroll down through all the comments to probably find that particular comment but I’m not really about to do that.
Yes K-pop isn’t all about BTS, yes not all boy groups is BTS, yes not everything in K-pop reduces to BTS, yes I KNOW I read the comments. I know people are saying oh they’re dumb, they’re racist, but can we stop and think for a second?
What if that person is getting into the whole kpop thing. What if they’re NEW. I think the best route would have been either ignore it and don’t comment if it makes you so angry or just kindly comment or inform the person that they’re not BTS and that the group in the photo are called the Boyz. Like I said before it probably was a honest mistake. Calling them racist, telling them foul names, and saying their stupid makes you seem immature.
I mean, haven’t we all made the same mistake at some point? Like for example, thinking that one song is from Artist A but actually it’s from Artist B. To be honest, you can’t honestly say you got their name and faces right the first time can you?
No I don’t think you can and I’m pretty sure it took you more than a day or two to remember their names and faces. That is unless you seriously studied their names and faces or have photographic memory.
People make honest mistakes, I still got to remember a whole bunch of names and faces to remember like those in NCT and SEVENTEEN. And I’m sure there are people who got their names and faces down more quickly than I can. Or who have been in the fandom way longer than I have that already got their names and faces down, and yes I’m including the subunits like NCT Dream, and NCT 127. Remembering probably like twenty something people or more I honestly don’t know, is like remembering a whole class you’re completely new to.
How does this tie in? Well what I’m just saying is to chill because it’s like remembering a person from you’re class and then a week later you learned their name and face. Again, honest mistakes happen.
Oh but what if that person did it on purpose? Even more reason to ignore it. If that person did it on purpose then what they’re looking for is attention and trying to provoke people. And that’s exactly what you’re giving that person.
You’re giving that hater what they want and what they’re looking for. And by doing that, in my opinion, I believe the people who are “defending” their favorite artists are making the fandom look immature. You may belong to both ARMY and The B I don’t know but how you respond to hate comments or comments that provokes you reflects on all the fandom.
“Oh but I’m was only trying to protect my boys, they don’t deserve that disrespect.”
That is NOT how you “protect” your favorite idol group at all. And making a mistake like that is definitely NOT someone disrespecting a idol group. Disrespecting is when someone is shaming them for lip syncing, shaming then on copying the music of other artists, saying that they don’t work hard for their career.
I think I vented enough. To complete this off, I just want to say if you want to protect your favorite artist please don’t act immature by commenting something that isn’t worth your time. Instead support the artist, reply to their post saying how great full we are to have them and that they are working extremely hard for their career and that we’re proud of them. Because they’ll want to read those type of comments and we want them to feel like we’re there for them and that they can trust in anything.
And if someone posts something that you know is not correct information I would just say to ignore it if it makes you so angry and you just want to curse at them or kindly reply the correct information.
Anyway, love you guys! Keep supporting our boys! ❤️💜
I just reeeeaaaally love his voice!! There’s something about, it might be sexy but it has this like warm feeling and I feel like it just soothes you in some way you know?
When I’m angry, sad, hearing his voice is just very soothing and it makes you feel like this sort of comfort. It gives you this warm feeling and I think that’s a gift. Don’t get me wrong the other members have amazing voices as well and great for hearing them when you want to feel better but this is V time. 😂
Anyway his voice is amazing and sometimes when I take nap I sleep to it cause like I said, it’s calming. And what I love about the video was that it’s and directed by V and it’s very pleasing to watch. When I watched it I felt these sort of strong emotions and making someone have strong emotions while watching a video someone made is amazing.
Honestly to those who love V and want to support him an of you haven’t yet, I strongly suggest watching Winter Bear. It is in English which is even more amazing. I really love all the work V has placed in the video and how hard he worked to make this beautiful song.
Hey guys! So I’ve been kinda traveling... can’t really say traveling but anyway, where I’m at I have really horrible service so I can’t get on anything internet related unless I go to a town of some sort to just get that service. And honestly it’s like a hour drive so not worth it. But here I am with actual service so I’m able to post this!
As you can tell it’s Taemin’s song Famous. 😍 When I saw the music video I was blown away for a few reasons, obviously one of those reasons being Taemin. I was reading the comments and one that stuck to me was that he was an actual anime character. I actually like that comment, but that’s probably just me being bias since I’m an actual anime fan as well.
Another reason was the aesthetic of the video which I really liked. Tho one scene that I have kept imprinted in my brain was Taemin tied by a rope around his wrists.... I’m a filthy human being. 😂 And lastly is because of the choreography. When I saw a bit of the choreography I was pretty stoked about it because I just really liked it in my opinion.
And now the dance performance is already out! I feel like Taemin is the only person that could make this dance pretty sexy and cool. Plus his voice oh my god... I can’t forget it no matter how many times I try. Just like his song Sexuality I can’t forget his voice in that song. So if you are a huge kpop fan and you haven’t heard of Taemin yet, I recommend! Also check out his performance video and actual music video! Let’s keep support Taemin and his future works to come!
This is officially a bop, at last the holy trinity has been completed! 😂 If I’m being flat out honest I thought this collab would be with Khalid. You know how they’ve been doing all these collaborations with English speaking artists for BTS World?
I remember hearing about how BTS are going to do a collaboration with Khalid. Then the next thing I know they started collaborating with other artists for BTS World. When the first two were released my mind went like, “Oh, RM and Suga are definitely going to collab with Khalid for the third part of the soundtrack.” Of course I was wrong because it turned out to be Juice WRLD.
I was shook for that one moment but as I said earlier, the song is a bop! Guess who’s going to repeat it for the rest of the day. 😂 Let’s stream to our hearts content!

⚠️Warning: If there is any wrong information in this blog please let me know! I don’t want to give any false information. I’m going to try to not make this blog to long.
If you’ve been on Twitter for the past two days and you’re an ARMY, you know better than anyone how other ARMYs have felt when it came to a segment covering BTS. An absolutely racist and disrespectful segment. To those who might not know here’s a summary of the situation:
Summary:
20 to One is an Australian TV show (on Channel 9) and basically they countdown the top 20 global crazes placing BTS as No. 18 and let me tell you, once the segment was released there were at least three hashtags that were trending on Twitter overnight.
#channel9apoligiz(s)e
#channel9apoligiz(s)etoBTS
#fireAlexWilliamson
Don’t worry, I promise the third hashtag will make sense as I go on. Rather than writing what happened in the segment, the following tweet has the full two minute segment that was covered about BTS. If I’m being honest.....I wasn’t even able to watch the whole thing AT ALL.
“Here is the full report which was given on BTS tonight. Watch at your own will. https://t.co/pW43GQHG11”
There are a few common words that ARMY has used to describe this segment which are:
Disgusting
Racist
Xenophobic
Disrespectful
Then amazingly enough when things were already on fire, more wood was added by Alex Williamson who didn’t post one, but many more tweets adding to the fire. The following was the first tweet that he has posted supporting the segment of 20 to One.
“Shut the fuck up cunt it ain’t racist they just don’t give a fuck about boy bands who are designed solely to extract $ from the hip pocket
Honestly, the various replys that ARMY made were amazing! There is one tweet that actually caught my attention which was, “Us 14 y/o’s also sold out a 3.5 star wine that Jungkook drank. Don’t forget that.” This reminded me when Jungkook revealed what fabric softer he used and the next thing you know, it was sold out. 😂
The obvious thing ARMY asked for was an apology from those involved in the segment, and I believe a representative of Channel Nine as well for letting them air the segment, since many ARMYs did mention that it did not follow an regulations and was considered defamation. This was what we got:
“As a lighthearted entertainment program, it is our belief that last night’s episode of 20 to One, which highlighted the ‘Greatest Global Crazes’, did not breach any broadcast regulations, and was intended to humorously highlight the popularity of the group. We apologise to any who may have been offended by last night’s episode.”
“❤”
As for Alex.....let’s just say he didn’t really apologize at all and still kept being quite disrespectful.
End of Summary
I hope the summary helped you guys of the current situation! Now this is my opinion on the situation currently.
I honestly agree with how racist it is and it’s disrespectful as well knowing how hard they worked throughout their career and the tough times they went through. Of course I would like to give my opinion on the whole segment but that’s going to take too long so I’ll give my opinion on four things, three from the segment and the fourth opinion will be about the apology.
‘only one member actually speaks English’
As we know, Namjoon is amazing at English and learned it by watching the American show Friends. But pointing that out that’s a way of belittling them. As ARMYs we know that they try to at least speak a bit of the language for the fans so they can communicate us which is honestly amazing. I’m sure if they wish it, they would want the ability to speak all languages to be able to speak out to us and to able to express more of themselves. But because of their actions we know that they love us hence the quote, “actions speak louder than words.”
Gangster names
This was a bit of a surprise when I first heard it. As I mentioned I didn’t see the full segment because I couldn’t bare to watch anymore. But then I saw this floating around, so I’m guessing they mentioned it towards the end of the segment. I did a bit of research about stage names because my arrogant self didn’t really question why any Kpop idol had a stage name. So this is what I dug up.
I’m still a bit iffy about the process of choosing a stage name but I read that they really don’t have a choice and that their stage name is chosen for them, but idols can later on change their stage name if they wanted to. But the question is why do they have stage name in first place? Apparently it’s so that they can attract more people because they believe that by having an “old” sounding name they wouldn’t attract many people. Some idols tho, have a special meaning behind their stage maybe even a special reason.
J-Hope
The reason why his stage name is J-Hope is because he hopes he can become people’s hope. Hence the introduction “I’m your hope, you’re my hope, I’m J-Hope.”
Suga
Suga on the other hand was a stage name that was given to him from BangPD I believe. The reason why Suga was chosen is because his smiles are sweet like sugar.
RM
Another example is RM. Now here’s the thing, RM changed his stage name. Currently the initials of his stage name means Real Me and I’m guess what that means is that he’s showing ARMYs the real him. Now what about Rap Monster? Well I’m just going on a whim here and guess that the reason for the previous stage name is because of his amazing ability of rapping. Honestly I’m not going to talk about the other stage names he had cause that’s going to take too long. 😂
V
Last but not least, V! If you’ve been an ARMY even before the debut of BTS then you know very well that V was th last member to be introduced to BTS. During the time they wanted to make V like the mystery member and kept him hidden in hopes to attract more people. He was given the choice between Lex, Six, and V. He chose V because the members thought it fits him well.
‘I’m going to say....hair products.’
As we already know, BTS was able to speak at the UN. Namjoon, gave a speech about self respect which was amazing and a huge accomplishment for their career. During the segment they did mention that they did indeed gave a speech at the UN so they did do a little research but what they said afterwards is flat out ridiculous. They said that the speech that they gave at the UN was most likely about hair products... I’m beyond speechless honestly.
Speech less because could you imagine how nervous they were? Could you imagine how much time they prepped and wrote and try to find out the right words to write such a great speech? It’s not like writing an essay for a school assignment, they’re writing for the public to hear and presenting to not just the leaders of the UN but to those who may be watching as well. It’s a big deal because they’ve been noticed and had made a great impact to us.
If you haven’t yet, I recommend watching the full UN speech!
I had to share but out of all the videos, Jimmy Fallon’s segment about the speech of the UN was amazing and cracked me up. 😂
Honestly the part where they made it so that a representative was hearing Fake Love when Trump was giving out his speech was amazing. 😂 Then came along a few minutes of roasting Trump was also funny.
Apology
So this will be my last opinion. What is my opinion about the apology that the representative of channel 9 gave and the tweet from 20 to One. Honestly... I’m not satisfied with it at all. I agree with ARMY that they need to publicly apologize for the racist and disrespectful segment. The way 20 to One apologized is not ok and it’s kinda like they’re not admitting to their fault. “Light hearted entertainment,” do you really think the whole two minute segment was “light hearted.”
No it’s not light hearted at all. They even made us look like crazy fans. But I don’t mind it because ARMY has accomplished a bunch of projects in honor of BTS. Projects like helping the environment, helping conserve the koalas (specifically in honor of RM). I mean, let’s not mention how litteraly there is a koala named Koya in a Australian zoo. ARMYs have donated to US organizations that assist disadvantaged kids around the world (specifically in honor of Suga). Then Mexican ARMY outdid themselves when they acted as a human barricade when BTS were arriving at the airport for K-Con Mexico!
“BLESS THOSE MEXICAN ARMY'S BLESS THEM 🙏
Other Army's and fans should learn these good deeds
#BTS #방탄소년단”
Of course, there are many more projects that AMRYs have done in the past that we all need to be proud of. I’m also proud of the project as well that’s been done for the boys.
Last but not least Alex. He didn’t really give an apology at all and it’s really not worth mentioning it. If you want you can check it out through his Twitter.
Anyway, this is my opinion of the situation and what has happened so far. I’m going to end it here since this is already long blog.
