Suga or G-Dragon?
HAHAH g-dragon that’s interesting :oo neither of them are really my type, but if i had to pick one, i’d say yoongi because even though he’s a lot more subtle with his affection, i think it makes it all the more genuine and sweet! jiyong really is a sweetie, but i find him a bit awkward :’)
send me 2 idols and i’ll choose which one is more of my ideal type!~
I have a question. I read you said "bras" were thrown on stage but then somewhere else said just one fan threw a bra. So was it one or more than one? Im sad about this. As it is as a foreign fan it feels like we're below Korean fans so when international armys do something plain trashy like this it makes us all look bad and it's real sad&disappointing because we're not all like that 😔
in the picture i saw there was a pink and black bra, so unless that one fan decided to bring a bunch of bras, there was more than one fan who threw their bra on stage.
don’t worry, people know that not all international fans are like this. it’s just that the bad side of them are publicized while the good is simply treated as something that is common and expected of them to do. for example, at the airport, the Chile fans sang yoongi a happy birthday song. such gestures are sweet and greatly appreciated, but people don’t praise it as much and they don’t make it as much of a big deal as compared to when fans do bad stuff. :)
Hello^^ I just wanted to say that I think you're right about Yoongi having a girlfriend in middle school, because not that long ago a letter he wrote about his past love in middle school came out but they weren't anything serious Idk if this is the source you were speaking about &idk 4sure if the letter was real but it was real cute He was too shy around her xd Im guessing hes nvr been in a relationship though since he went2 an all boys school I wnted 2say incase this is what ur referring to
hi! ^^ i actually already linked the letter in my post, i linked all the sources that supports my claim about them having been in relationships before. do check the sources out if you haven’t :)
Hmm that question got me wondering... I was born in 1997 like Jungkook but my birthday is in March. So hypothetically speaking, would that make me a grade above Jungkook or same grade? Sorry, hahaha I know how Korean age works but I dont know about the school system stuff. Also, I wanted to to ask since Im interested in knowing, did you go to school in other countries like America? How is school in Korea vs school in other countries...
because Im from America & I hated school. There was too much of kids gossiping, smoking weed, being promiscious etc. School was too focused on socializing, at least for me haha. I feel like school in Korea is more focused on the education. I can be wrong, I just wanted to get a perspective from someone who actually went to school in Korea, & to see if they have all that stuff going on there too.
Since you’re a March baby you’re highly likely to be in the same grade as the people your age, which in other words, the same grade as Jungkook. Enrollment into schools as well as which year line you’ll enroll with is decided by when your birth date is, as well as when the school term starts. Usually, the Korean school term starts in March, so January-February babies are enrolled with the liners a year above them. I don’t have an example to give but that’s the school rules here, and I would just like to emphasize again, just because you have to enroll in school with a batch above your own, it doesn’t make you a fast liner. In your case specifically, you’re simply a ’97 liner.
Yes, I’ve attended school in other countries before. But I won’t make any comparison.
I think schooling in Korea is portrayed pretty well online; of course, there are some extremes sometimes, but for the most part, it’s an actual representation of the situation here. I shan’t touch on elementary/middle school, since those are the less stressful periods. As most would already know, 수능 is seen as the most prestigious thing here, and to most, it determines their entire future. Because of the strong belief in this examination, most parents start preparing their children for the test as early as the beginning of middle school. Sounds a little far fetched, since수능 is only taken at the end of high school, but it’s true. In Korea, education is important, but I think parents also see other factors as really important, such as nurturing talents, so a lot of kids here have many things imposed on them since a young age - swimming, piano, violin, all of these “talents” are trained from a young age. It’s always better to have an asset to show off, you know?
In high school, it’s where all the strain and rigor comes in. Students spend about 16 hours a day in school on average, with most continuing on to 학원 after school for even more studying.학원 can last until say, 1 or 2 am to say the extreme, and if you don’t know what a학원 is, it’s basically like a tuition center, where not only students, but sometimes adults too go to for extra classes. If that isn’t taxing enough, we have school on Saturdays too ^^ usually Saturdays are considered half days, so school lasts shorter than the usual weekday timings, but it doesn’t stop the kids from staying in school to continue self study. Because of all the hours students spend in school, lunch and dinner are usually provided in school as well.
For those students who don’t attend학원, they usually go to either 도서관 or 독서실 for self study. 도서관 is more familiarly known to us as a library, but near exams it’s usually so packed it’s impossible to find a space to sit down and study. I’m not sure about other countries but in Korea, usually you can find도서관 in the school compound itself. Because of the lack of space, many students turn to the next alternative - 독서실. Sounds familiar? It’s from the line Jungkook had in ‘No More Dream’ (at the 0:40 mark). I have no idea why it’s translated to library, but it’s nothing like a library. There aren’t books for you to borrow, there aren’t people who go there simply for the leisure of enjoying a good book. A독서실 is basically this.
cr; http://www.hswedu.com/hsw540/32141
It’s basically a place that has great air conditioning, a bunch of cubicles crammed together, and it makes a great environment for studying! Students (mostly seniors) rent a cubicle where they spend their time just studying and studying and studying… to the point where they sometimes just sleep there instead of going home. Since it’s a place made strictly for studying, talking and all distraction isn’t allowed, so students who can’t focus at home would rent a cubicle at a독서실 to ensure they get the right knowledge into their heads. In more extreme cases (to me, but to them it’s no where near extreme), students will rent a place at a고시원. A고시원 is basically just a dormitory. The room is pretty small, with a bed, a desk, maybe a shelf and a closet (those made of tent material, I forgot the specific term). Since teens rent it simply for the purpose of focusing on studying, that’s everything they need to survive.
Also, in some schools, students spend all of their time in the classroom. They sleep there and everything, so it’s pretty common for the students to have toothbrushes, blankets, pillows, and everything else you can think of with them.
However, whatever that is mentioned above are just facilities that have been implemented to facilitate the students in studying. After all, it comes down to self motivation and self discipline when it comes to studying. Since the Korean society is so competitive, many believe that if they don’t study as hard as how everyone else is studying, then they wouldn’t do well and they’d have no future. It’s a pretty traditional mindset, but still proves to be evident in present day society. But, it doesn’t mean that Korea is filled with nerds who do nothing but study. The rapport between teens are strong because I guess they are unified by their will to do well, and they spend more time with each other (in school and all the other places) than they do with their families, hence it’s an upside to this.
I would just like to say that just like any other country, there are delinquents here too, maybe just not as much. There are prestigious schools, but there are also less recognized schools where students have no motivation to learn/succeed, so like any other country, it’s the same here. It’s just that our competitive sides are what usually comes out on the news and everything, so I guess people think everyone is like that here? I’m not, for one. I don’t waste my time/money going to학원 or독서실, and I certainly do not believe studying 24/7 is what’s going to get me somewhere. Granted, I have international influence, so that’s probably why I don’t feel the same way as the majority of Korean kids.
All in all, I think it’s genuinely stressful living here, especially if you’re not a very carefree person by nature. It’s very structured and limited, and people tend to have no avenues to break out from what’s considered the norm. Many aspects here are highly respected, which includes the Arts, sometimes considered unpopular in other countries, so I guess in a sense it’s pretty good too.
But since we’re on the topic, often times a lot of kpop fans talk about wanting to be Korean, wanting to live here, etc. It’s not all pretty guys, think twice before you say these things. Don’t idealize our country, there’s a lot more to living here than meets the eye. Don’t be a koreaboo.
Sorry that this got so long~
Thank you! Yes youre answer made sense. Yeah I am actually Yoongi biased hahaha I love all the boys but Yoongi is definetly my favorite. Taehyung was actually my first bias so thats why my username is that lol
ah, that’s nice to know :)
Hello(: since you seem to know a lot about personality types, do you so happen to know the difference between an INFP and an ISFP? I took the personality test on 16personalities two times, both times I got INFP. However, when I took the test on another site, it told me I was ISFP. So I took the same test again, & got ISFP again. So Im kind of lost on which one I really am. It would help for me to know, so I know which member I would be best with hypathetically speaking lol
hello! actually i don’t recommend taking these personality tests more than twice, because your brain tends to be able to process which questions and what answers would you give a certain personality type, and you’d end up being able to manipulate the test to get your desired personality type. in my personal opinion, the first two tests you took indicated that you’re an INFP, so i think it is more accurate that you’re an INFP. however, you cannot rule out the fact that your personality type might’ve changed as well :)
ISFPs are adventurers. They are reserved, friendly, perceptive, and considerate, and they enjoy living in the moment. They are dependable and dedicated to their values and to their family and friends, and they do not force their beliefs on others and they actively avoid arguments.INFPs on the other hand, are diplomats. They areidealistic and visionary. They are dedicated to their values and to their family and friends. They strive to live a life that closely conforms with their values. They work to comprehend people and to help them reach their own personal potential. They are resilient, willing to change, and accepting of others unless they oppose their core values. They have a profound sense of idealism that comes from a strong personal sense of right and wrong. They conceive of the world as an ethical, honorable place, full of wondrous possibilities and potential goods.
In terms of functions, they share the same dominant function, the Fi (introverted feeling). Fi is a judging function where the individual makes decisions based on their own personal value system, hence people with a dominant Fi function will normally make decisions based on emotions rather than objective facts and data.People with the Fi function are the most sensitive of all types. They can react emotionally for no obvious reason.As for their auxiliary functions, ISFP works on the Se (extroverted sensing) function while INFP works on the Ne (extroverted intuition) function. The Se function give ISFPs a strong sense of the outside world. It enables them to be thrill-seekers that act immediately on experiences and live in the moment.The Ne function, however, makes INFPs big picture people. They don’t enjoy the details, but will handle them when necessary.They can see trends and patterns. They are especially good at seeing how things, events and people are connected. They can see the meaning behind people’s actions.They tend to come up with infinite number of ideas and suggestions on how to make the future better, and are often great speakers who are able to convey their ideas well. The tertiary function is Ni (introverted intuition) for an ISFP and Si (introverted sensing) for an INFP. Ni basically enables ISFPhaving insights and hunches that frequently turn out to be correct.Si enables INFPs to have the ability to recall a past experience in great vivid detail, complete with any stored emotions. The inferior trait for both personalities are Te (extroverted thinking). Since they are the same, I will not be touching on it.
If it helps, ISFPs’ best match are ESFJs, while INFPs’ best match are ENFJs.
All in all, ISFPs tend to be more abstract and have more tendencies to be stubborn. They like freedom, but they can be competitive as well. INFPs are more of people persons, and they tend to float about and are often hard to figure out.
I hope this helps you figure out what your personality type is!
Thank you so much for the ship (: I appreciate it !
No, I should be the one thanking you. I really appreciate your support for our blog this whole time~ I’ve noticed you all this while hahaha thank you!
Who in BTS is the quiet/shyest most to least ?
Of course I don’t know any of them personally but I don’t know that I would say any of them are super shy. Maybe kookie around girls lol but quietest to loudest would probably be:SugaRap Monster JinJiminJungkookVJ-HopeIf you watch them on videos like the bangtan bombs tho you’ll see that they all can be pretty loud/wild but this is just my opinion :)
