What? An idol who isn't excited for their birthday? How dare they! /sarcasm

J1n isn't going to be sitting around doing nothing when he goes into the military. Considering the tensions between NK and SK, and there is a possibility he would have to fight. That's frightening for anyone to go through. His birthday doesn't mean "yay I'm 30/31!" right now, it means "If things go south between these two countries my life is in danger".

What that fan asked him was very unrealistic indeed and super out of touch.

Also, how is he causing a fuss? This is the first and only "complaint" he's made, and it was a single comment. All other things he's said about enlistment are that he wanted to go and was being forced not to go for as long as possible.
Tae would have threatened them, but Jn tries to be kind to fans. They're out of touch with reality. The world is on the brink of ww3. His birthday isn't that important when his life could be in danger. Anything can happen in the military. I hope he's treated with respect and allowed to serve in peace.

BTS Scores Three 2023 Grammy Nominations



The group is vying for best pop duo/group performance with “My Universe,” a collab with Coldplay. They are up for best music video for “Yet to Come.” And they are nominated for album of the year as featured artists on Coldplay’s Music of the Spheres.




in reality the nomination for Album of the Year is for Coldplay, but they get mentioned because the song "my universe" is there

maybe they have a chace this year (thanks to Coldplay) but the grammys have been kissing bt5 ass for years now
that "yet to come" music video was so boring. dont know how that can be nominated

They will get the best album nom and told to fuck off. They beat Lim Young on idolplus voting. Both artists got the majority of votes.

It would be difficult to win Album of the year. They are up against big names like Beyonce, Adele and Kendrick Lamar. Harry might have a chance as well because his album received rave reviews from the critics. Best Music Video should go to All too well (10-minute version) period. Best pop/duo is the one they could realistically win but even there they have to go up against Adele who is one of Grammy's favorites.

yeah i think their biggest chance is for pop duo this year, because Coldplay is grammys favorite

Adn Album of the Year is hard to predict, but still....is not really their album is Colplay's album so winning that doesnt feel too significant imo

they even dressed him in a military style here eh eh :

this is highly coded and symbolic
you know he has a song abyss? the abyss is represented by the sea here.
i decoded this whole sailor thing in the astronaut music video analysis where it was said that an astronaut is a star sailor symbolic to the fallen ones who are celestial pirates and ancient astronauts. he appears as a fisherman too holding a big net for captivation of souls. there were lots of fish in the astronaut mv it is all symbolic. him with all those merit medals signals a principality a demon king/captain/leader/prince. the sea theme signals the marine kingdom and marine spirits as well

I'm not justifying it, but this crap is so common in South Korea to the point where I think most men don't even realize they do stuff like that at the time they're doing it. I have a friend who is Korean and lives in SK. She was describing to me how women will be harassed in a bar for example, and nobody will bat an eyelash. Like as though it is commonplace, part of the "social structure" for that to go on. No one will come to the defense of that woman.

Years ago, Seokjin had a fan on stage and was clearly joking around with her, but his method of joking around was to manhandle. You should have seen how tightly he was holding her arm. Then there's music videos like the one for Boy in Luv and the scene in which YG is being rough with that woman. When BT5 were called out for the misognystic lyrics, YG was saying how he checked lyrics and he didn't see anything wrong with it. And that's it exactly, he didn't see anything wrong with it.

It's entirely possible that a lot of women who are victims don't see anything wrong with being harassed either. It wouldn't surprise me if that were the case.

This is common in a lot of communities. Girls don't realize it's wrong and think it's cute if they fight with their boyfriends. Grew up seeing girls slap their boyfriends, or laughing if he's possessive and drags them around. Both need to keep their hands to themselves. That's not healthy but it's considered cute when little kids act that way. I'm not sure it can be changed, it's a deeply entrenched behavior. Love is not meant to hurt. Affection or desire can be shown without hurting the other person.
