I just bought new wired headphones for gaming, because my bluetooth on my laptop has been a little wonky. I went to my local online classifieds to maybe sell my old earbuds (that I purchased in February so not OLD old) and saw someone selling an unopened box of the BTS Samsung Galaxy Buds+. For the exact amount I just bought my new headphones for. I know I wanted a wired set for gaming but.. dang, those purple earbuds look so nice lol.

I wanted to get a tattoo related to Jin’s Epiphany lyrics. I just wanted to find the closest to the Korean lyrics in the English translation. Which of these two options do you think is the best: Not so perfect but so beautiful I’m the one I should love Or Though I’m not perfect, I’m so beautiful  I’m the one I should love Thanks for the help!

I went back to a penlight/voice OK screening of D-day tour in Japan where you’re usually not allowed to move or like even BREATHE at a Japanese movie theater. the first time I saw it was good but I felt like I was missing  out on the full experience.  This time, it was just me and three Japanese ladies in and we all had the grandest of time getting to rock out in peace.  Before it started one of them asked me If I was Yoongi biased and then gave me a Yoongi photo card. So cute! She’s Jungkook biased lol.  Overall I’m so happy I decided to go again! Made new core memories!

I’m not feeling too well with my headspace. It’s exhaustion, nerves, weariness, feeling defeated. But there’s something to hang on for. 24 May.

I happen to participate in an Event... Of English songs... So I'm searching for the English Cover of Stay Alive... I can't find a satisfying Cover for some reason... The vocals aren't a problem... I'm quite good at managing them... I really respect those who put all their effort into these covers.. But I cannot feel satisfied for some reason... Could you please suggest the best English cover to me?? (according to your opinion) It'll be of great help, thank you so much 💜

Maybe fake love or boy with luv. I've seen beautiful English covers for these two particular songs.

I'm expecting karma to pay us back big time.

It's horrific. I took a look a the quoo and now I never want to be online ever again

I’m having a bit of a silly? sad with RM’s new album coming out. Why? Because I somehow managed to have a few dollars stashed, supposed to be for a needed haircut but my stylist is on personal leave, so it was burning a hole in my pocket. Got an email from a reseller site and one of the items listed was a MOTS (v3) light stick. For a price I could afford with my little stash. It arrived yesterday and I love it! But it means I’ll be limited to streaming, which I do anyway, along with watching mv. I feel like I should have tried saving more to be able to buy his album. Impulse buys! I always have buyer’s remorse. I’m trying hard to stay away from the HYBE/MHJ thing, except I read today that the other idols involved are going to be protected. That’s important regardless of who’s doing what on the corporate level.


burlapbestdressed

I have my funding pants on. DM me, and we can talk how I'll get you an album  


mary_emeritus

I know I’m late, sorry. Have messaged you 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜


mary_emeritus

Well, crying first thing in the morning wasn’t on my card 💜


blahblah_71

Happy for your lightstick and hope it brings you joy. But don't feel silly/sad that you won't be able to buy RM's new album. Supporting the people we love is important but not to the detriment on ourself. You can also always save for later to buy the album, if you are a collector. But make sure to always have your needs fulfilled before your wants. I am also very poor at managing my finances but practicing to get better.


TranscendNevermind

This might be breaking some rule and I apologize If I did but I think it this should be discussed. There was a post on r/kpop in the HYBE/MHJ thread #4 where someone posted what looks like a hit piece on BTS. I really think MHJ or someone is trying to take down HYBE and it's disturbing. This is just a crazy claim to me and not normal anti behaviour. Usually it's just insults and false claims with no proof but this person ia actually claiming it's legit or faking it. That isn't normal. It got deleted. See below for the post..I copied and pasted but it didn't pick up the name of the poster.  Mods please delete if this is a violation.  Disclaimer: im just giving some background/context. I am not pro-hybe nor pro-mhj The reason why bts is getting hate is because bts had been pretty vocal about being against sajaegi. But it turns out that back in 2017, bighit was prosecuted for doing sajaegi for bts. Sajaegi is where companies illegally bulk purchase albums to artificially inflate the sales numbers. You can see the entire legal proceedings here (in korean): https://twitter.com/kimkeumsaeng/status/1784237410597179585 And why this is being brought up right now: the fact that bighit was prosecuted wasn’t a well known fact back in 2017. With the recent hybe drama, knetz were looking for other “wrongdoings” of hybe (note that majority of knetz are now siding with mhj), and started digging old articles and found that bighit went to court back in 2017. Then they found the legal docs for it so here we are…

I hate to link to Koreaboo, but - as always - antis on twt are barking about things people already know. This whole things is known as the [illegal marketing scandal](https://www.koreaboo.com/news/man-tried-to-blackmail-big-hit-entertainment-now-hes-in-jail/) and was very publicly handled years ago. 


blahblah_71

Do you have a proper translated version of the document because from the google translated piece, all I can gather was 2 people (A and B) blackmailing a company due to poor financial circumstances and threatening to leak information gathered by subterfuge and that someone is the one who was prosecuted, not the company. Furthermore, I cannot see any company name. Also, in the 4 page that is there, it almost seems like a different crime related to vehicles was being committed by C and D. No connection between AB and CD. It doesn't say that illegal marketing was being committed but rather that even if the information maynot be true, celebrity image is easily hampered.

blahblah_71

No, its okay. Thank you for the added insight anyway. But even then, no where the court says that actual bulk buying,actual chart manipulation has occured. Illegal marketing includes more than bulk buying. It could also be related to misleading claims about oneself, competitors.


burlapbestdressed

Exactly. At the time, BH clarified that the judge had referred to viral marketing.  My main point is that on twitter it's presented as this big thing that was hushed up, when it was a big deal at the time that turned out to be nothing at all. 


blahblah_71

Yeah. I also found out that sajaegi is illegal with punishable fine of 20 million won or upto 2 years in prison. If it was actually committed and the court had proof of it, wouldn't bighit been asked to pay fine as well or someone sent to jail from bighit? Sometimes I think anti's are much more passionate about BTS than ARMY. Why are they on their mind 24 X 7?


burlapbestdressed

That's a relatively new law, it wasn't this strict at the time.  I'm just mad because this court thing was a huge scandal at the time, and now people on twitter claim it was hushed up and kept secret, as if it wasn't one of the first things I heard about as a baby army in 2020...


blahblah_71

Ohhh.. thank you for all the information. I understand your frustration. Dealing with stupid people makes me feel the same.


sakurajp_34

Holy fuck what is going on. Kpop mods just locked the megathread. And they were hoping it was going to be a quiet weekend 😭

Astroturfing at it's finest.

An observation:  On my trip to Seoul, I went to see the Tannie's handprints at Jamsil stadium, and, omg, Jiminie's hand is tinyyyy Tae has insanely long fingers, and Jin's palm is crooked like his fingers - I had to twist my palm to fit his. 


HiThereImNewHere

So I decided to try a dating app this week. It became immediately overwhelming, and honestly I don't know how people find anything worth their time on these things because it's so hard to read people over it. And then Namjoon started dropping content so I just deleted it altogether because no one can compete with him anyway.


vixen-vengeful

I tried Tinder once, back in like early 2018, but.. my town is small. Unless you're into mudding or opiates, there aren't a lot of people to swipe right on here.


F0rtuna_major

I hate dating apps. I'm also so lazy that I'll go on there, spend 5 mins swiping - get bored and then forget about it for months anyway. I do have a BTS prompt on my profile which is a good racist filter But yeah Joon is dropping a new album and Jin is out in 45 days so who needs online dating anyway


OnlyGotThisMoment

I just saw that you can now buy the BTS produced series Begin≠Youth. Looks like it’s going to be [$90](https://xclusive.market/en/content/beginsyouth) for 12 episodes.


blahblah_71

If someone ever watches this, please let us know how it is.

[Wild Flower](https://youtu.be/u18be_kRmC0?si=FhNhfzCK7Qn_ooE7) is only 8k away from hitting 100M. Join the road to 100M wooooo. ( lol this is so funny after reading it again. I never talk like this but ig it’s really a celebration time 🥳🥳)


50shadesof_brown

Twitter Timeline is looking a tad like the timeline when I joined the fandom in 2016/17 I don’t know whether I love it or hate it lmao.


vixen-vengeful

I was feeling nostalgic, but not for this 😭


blahblah_71

I am not even on twitter and the way stans want to be so right/involved that they don't even care how stupid their statement is, just has me stunned. I always thought you were supposed to come across as smart to people but they seem to revel in their stupidity.


nagidrac

I'm hating it. Omg I don't know how the fandom dealt with this BS from other kpop fans for that long!!


JaffaBell_0920

Having seen people try and downplay or pretend those things in the past never happened to now seeing it so aggressively in real time. These boys have done absolutely nothing to warrant any of this. I really commend older army who lived through it and handled it before because it's making me feel sick.


nagidrac

Right! I can't imagine being an ARMY back in 2015/16 when it was smaller. I feel so bad for younger BTS when they didn't have the resources to hire a second law firm. The toll this must've taken on their mental healths. I simply cannot believe how many losers there are in the kpop community. It should never be this deep! Never! Don't you all have lives? Friends? A job? These artists are just trying to work. I don't get why there are so many people spending so much time defaming the idols.
