Today, we embark on our SECOND FULL BTS ALBUM REVIEW!! 🎵🎵

1️⃣ INTRO: O!RUL8,2?

2️⃣ N.O

Bon Voyage! | Our Reaction to Episode 6 (Season 1) + EP. 5 BEHIND CAM 📸

As we’ve come to expect, this episode of Bon Voyage was WHOLESOME & HILARIOUS.

The members (minus RM) hit the beautiful streets of Finland in their 6-bed camping-car. And although RM wasn’t able to join them, he took it like a CHAMP (telling everybody to have fun, be safe & send pictures)!

BTS - "We On" | Lyric Video, Lyrics + TWO Live Performances!

Today, we encounter 7 men dripping in…

SWAG,

SINCERITY

& SOLIDARITY.

As many of you told us, “We On” was definitely a hidden gem with an old-school hip-hop feel!

It brought us right back to our freshman year of college, when (after having guzzled down some coconut rum from the fish bowl cocktail that we scooped with our red solo cups) we used to make the one mile trek (on foot) from our dorm rooms down to a local dance club / bar every Friday night to l...

"MAMA" (by J-Hope) | Happy Mother’s Day! 💜

On this Mother's Day, whether you are hugging your mother tight, holding her memory close, or are a mother yourself, take a moment to pause & BREATHE.

Reflect on the beauty and majesty of motherhood. 

Consider the many ways it has shaped you, the trials that have strengthened you, and the joys that have uplifted you.

Let this breath fill you with gratitude for the past, peace for the present, and hope for the future. 

And as you exhale, release love and a...

"Paldogangsan" (Satoori Rap) | Lyrics, Dance Practice, Explanation Video, Live Performances + MORE!

“Gaga gaga” 👀

“Geosigi” 🤯

“Ahjura” 👶🏻

“Mul” 💦

We were thoroughly impressed by BTS’ highly complex intertwining of dialect, humor, history, personal anecdotes and social commentary within this song. Actually…this is not just a song. It is a CELEBRATION of diversity and unity.

We absolutely loved digging into the lyrics of and meaning behind this song…even though we still feel as if we know nothing at all about the song 😂

ARMY, we hope you all are having a wonderful day/evening!

A few quick updates to share:

1) We are not yet finished editing the reaction video that we had planned to release today 😢 It is QUITE lengthy, and therefore we’ll need a few more days to finish edits. We will plan to release this reaction video on SATURDAY (and then push Saturday’s reaction video to SUNDAY). Here’s a hint as to what this lengthy reaction video will be: gaga gaga 😉

*ARMY GOLD SURPRISE* 💜JK Weverse Live Karaoke (02.02.2023)

“Tolerance” is a person's diminished response to a substance or activity, which occurs when the substance or activity is used/practiced repeatedly and the body adapts to the continued presence of the drug or activity.

“Abstinence” is defined as the act of abstaining for any length of time from a substance or activity to which one has become addicted, but without actually dealing with the root causes of dependency.

“Practice how you will play in the game!”

Our father used to tell us this EVERY time he dropped us off at the basketball courts when we were kids.

At first, we would let it go in one ear and out the other.

However, as we started to get older, we began to realize the power of this statement. 

IT SETS THE FOUNDATION FOR ACTUAL PERFORMANCE BY BUILDING CONFIDENCE, FORMING GOOD HABITS, PERFECTING TECHNIQUES, PREPARING THE BODY FOR PRESSURE SITUATIONS & CONDITIO...

We previously recorded our reaction to Jimin’s appearance on Jimmy Fallon, but never got around to editing & releasing it. So here you go!

Our takeaways:

Despite all of the nicknames that Jimmy Fallon listed off for Jimin (Mochi, Chim Chim, Little Prince and Dooly), Jimin had the best nickname of all: JIMIN FALLON!!!! 😂😂

Jimin’s “LIKE CRAZY” performance was legendary. He transformed the entire To...

Our Reaction to SUGA’s Interview on Jimmy Fallon + “HAEGEUM” Live Performance!!

Of course Jimmy Fallon had a real Haegeum (the instrument) ready and waiting for Suga to play during his interview 🤣

Also, each performance of “Haegeum'' that we have seen thus far has had a slightly different vibe. This Tonight Show performance, while perhaps a bit subdued in sound level compared to the one we witnessed live at his concert, was certainly not subdued in theatrics. Lights…Lasers…stank faces activated 🥴

ARMY GOLD, we’re back with another SURPRISE reaction video for all of you beautiful people 🙏🏽

After watching Boracity Magazine’s video “why the music industry is terrified of bts,” it caused an anger, awakening, and curiosity to form inside of us. 

Therefore, you all will be the recipients (or victims…depending on how you look at it) of this anger/awakening/curiosity 😂

Run BTS! Ep. 6 | “Confession” (Parts 1 & 2)! 🙏🏽

Today, we attempt to cure our post-concert depression and anger (caused by learning about the systematic exclusion/sabotage of BTS by the Western Music Industry + the reading about the recent “Dynamic Pricing” fiasco) with a much needed dose of…RUN BTS!

Some of the randomness we got in today’s episode:

 ► ¼ push-ups

 ► Panty-borrowing

 ► Water spraying

 ► Middle finger tugging View Post

🚨WARNING: Today’s video makes us angry as hell 🚨

“There is nothing organic about an industry choosing its own success stories and sabotaging the ones overcoming their unfair obstacles. What is organic is having a fanbase of real people actually buying and streaming the music.”

This insidious & interconnected system of SYSTEMATIC EXCLUSION & SABOTAGE that the Western music industry has carefully & strategically crafted to work against BTS is a disgraceful an...
