My guilty pleasure is finding connections between frameworks,theories, principles from books I’ve read and the journey BTS is taking.


🐨: Since each of us had been doing so many different genres and so many different things for over ten years, the goals or direction each of us envisioned were different. And it wasn't just us—the fanbases' thoughts were different, the thoughts of the members here were different, and the thoughts of the representatives from the relevant departments were all different too. 🐨: There was just no narrowing it down. Personally, the hardest part for me was that there wasn't a clear "captain" this time. A leader or a boss who could firmly pull things forward and declare, "This is right" or "That is wrong." But given the situation, it was really difficult for that to happen. 🐨: So, it was very tough. To be honest, we ended up making this album without having a set path beforehand. Because of that, when the album came out, I completely expected that opinions would be divided…starting with the title track itself. 🐨: But as a player participating in this, I honestly think it's a miracle that this album even came out at all. The very fact that it was released feels like a miracle to me. Whether people feel it's lacking, whether there's mixed reception, or if people don't like it…the fact that we came back together here, released a studio album as promised, and are carrying out performances and a tour again... 🐨: Of course, this and that might be disappointing; everything has its shortcomings. I feel those shortcomings too. But really, for us to make it through without a single member dropping out, without anyone getting sick, or without anyone creating an issue... safely. 🐨: And now, thanks to all of you, our scale has grown so much. If we don't plan the scheduling for making an album and managing it at least a year to a year and a half in advance, we can't even move forward. That's because so many people move together with us. It's not a situation where we can just say, "Hey, let's do it this way and make it happen." It just didn't work like that. 🐨: So it was a project that was incredibly, incredibly difficult to make. If there's a sense of disappointment or something along those lines that you all are feeling, it's probably due to the lack of a strong central focal point, or a "captain." I think that's what it is. 🐨: But it couldn't be helped, and we had to release this so that when we gather together again someday to create something, we can move past this—even if it feels somewhat disorganized and mixed with so many different elements.

Busta Rhymes made sure to get his picture with BTS backstage at the #AMAs. 😂

Apologies for the long maintenance and site semi-crash today, we are trying to scale down the site to save cost and keep the site running longer. So some features will be closed down for a while for improvements like Telepathy Room and Special Mission.
