At first, I had no intention whatsoever to know BTS. I knew news that went through my facebook timeline that they have huge fandom and that they have crazy fans. I also heard the news that they came to Indonesia for their concert tour. My friend went to the concert and came back bruised. Then the news continued to stream through my timeline. I once pried into the matter and found out that it was a fanwar. It did not leave any good impression so I pried no more. Image Via - Allkpop Previous December, my niece came over to my house and told me about BTS because I was looping Super Junior’s Black Suit. Perhaps, she thought she could get me into the fandom and hell yeah she did it to her aunt. What made me swam deeper was the thought, “Why is my niece so interested in BTS. She is so young…” That was when I remembered I had a friend who is also a fan of BTS or also called ARMY. I asked her to introduce BTS to me and thus, I fell into another hell hole called fandom. Here is why: Funny + Handsome Men It is known that humorous men ranks the top of ideal list for most women and looks takes the second rank. But what if you can have both? What is a better combination than this? None. When I asked my friend to introduce me to BTS’ music, she did not send me any MV links on YouTube. She send me a fan-made compilation of Jin’s windshield laughter. I laughed my lungs dry, oh, dear Lord. It had been a very long time since I laughed so hard. I was immediately surfing other videos suggested at the right side and I clicked on it. I burst into another round of lungs-drying laughter at RM’s attempt to cut an onion. Good Lord, send him a wife. Images Via - aminoapps Image 1 - Jin Image 2 - Jin and Suga At first, I had a hard time differentiating them. I recognized Suga immediately because he looked so fair and he looked like he gave no shit to other goofing boys. I was so wrong. I clicked another video and my perspective on him changed a hundred eighty degree. MV Concept I watched their Trilogy. I cried. I am confused. Who was behind the concept? Director? Or the seven of BTS? Who? How? I didn’t quite understand but somehow all of it felt relate-able. I watched the rest of their MVs and I felt what they call ‘love’. I have never truly like K-pop but BTS set my otomegokoro on fire. They create personal songs and for the first time, I like listening to rap thanks to the rap line. Image Via - Critical Kpop Dance, Boys. Amazing choreography. I want to meet the choreography uncle. I want to shake uncle’s hands. I want his skills. I want him to teach me some moves. Not only the choreographer uncle is amazing. BTS members master the dance and they create distinct style on their own especially J-hope and Jimin. Well-packaged Album I recently purchased BTS album “Love Youself; Her” Version O and I did not want to unseal it because of how minimalistic yet beautiful it is. Of course, I unsealed it eventually. I did not regret at all. The photo-book is very dreamy and simply enchanting. Bless the photographer. As you might have guessed that one of biases is Jin. I was sort of half-expecting to get Jin’s Photo Card but I did not expect that I would ACTUALLY get it. BigHit is very generous. I have never in my life, purchased a song album with a photo-book companion! It is definitely worth the purchase and it also has two hidden tracks. ARMY? FANS? WAR? There is white and black but what is important is, everything is gray. ARMY suffered with BTS since their pre-debut, debut and until now. They received same amount of abuse from other fans who are desperate. However, talent and hard work never betray. ARMY, you don’t have to buy what they sell. Remember: “Don’t worry about us.” –BTS Cypher pt. 2 Cypher pt. 3 Cypher pt. 4 I want to stay in this hell hole. I am grateful of my niece and friend who lured me in with Jin’s windshield laughter compilation. Thank you ARMY for the warm welcome. Thank you BTS for being here with us.
I also write fanfiction of them if you don't know how much I like them. Click here!
