A ‘SWIM’ spoiler in an interview from 10 years ago??? BTS’s comeback album, their 5th full-length ‘Arirang (ARIRANG),’ features the title track ‘SWIM,’ with lyrics written by leader RM. BigHit Entertainment explained the song as capturing “the determination to calmly swim at your own pace through the waves of life, keeping moving forward without stopping despite the waves that come.” Is it a coincidence? Or was it the big picture RM had in mind 10 years ago? About 10 years ago, RM had an idea that would become the seed of ‘SWIM,’ during an interview with Sports Kyunghyang. BTS appeared in an exclusive interview for Sports Kyunghyang’s 12th-anniversary issue on May 16, 2017. At the time, BTS was in the middle of their second world tour, the ‘Wings Tour.’ The members were asked, around their fourth year since debut, to think about “what they would be like if they hadn’t become BTS and what they would be doing 10 years from now.” RM, who was using the stage name ‘Rap Monster’ at the time, said, “I think I would have just been a student in a business major,” and added, “I hope that 10 years from now, I would be doing music and performing in a calmer state, after the waves have passed.” The determination to be more at ease after the waves perfectly matches the message of the upcoming ‘SWIM.’ Whether this is mere coincidence or the result of RM carefully keeping track of his lyric notes and ideas, the concept for BTS’s new album title track, destined to shake the world, was a slight spoiler in the interview with Sports Kyunghyang 10 years ago.

On March 19, Seoul Mayor Oh Se-hoon visited Gwanghwamun Square to inspect safety and convenience measures ahead of the BTS comeback concert. He checked crowd flow, safety fences, and key areas, and coordinated with police, fire, traffic authorities, and organizers. Mayor Oh told officials, “From now on, this is not a ‘time for preparation’ but a ‘time for execution.’ Do not let your guard down until the end. Please respond in a more detailed and flexible way, with safety and order as the basics.” He added, “From the concert venue to nearby restrooms and even preparations for possible terrorism, everything is being systematically prepared for the BTS comeback concert, which people across the nation and even globally are waiting for. The Seoul Metropolitan Government will ensure safety so that everyone participating with mature civic awareness can enjoy the festival in a fun and happy atmosphere.” On the day of the event: — Around 8,200 safety personnel will be deployed — Medical support includes 3 first-aid stations, 11 organizer medical booths, and a mobile ICU unit. — CCTV monitoring from Seoul City Hall will track crowd density and risks — 2,551 restrooms will be available around the venue — Multilingual guidance, tourist guidebooks, and on-site interpretation services will assist domestic and international visitors ARIRANG OUT TODAY SWIM OUT TODAY RETURN OF THE KİNG BTS IS BACK #BTS_ARIRANG

wow, this is so ethereal... 🥹

they put the lyrics of mikrokosmos up… guys… 😭

we keep getting solo dino dance challenges, and it honestly makes me even more convinced that we’re getting a dino solo after the v8 unit bc if we’re right (and honestly would love to think), doremiz might enlist earlier than expected so they can all be together again as 13 by 2028 if ever... H2 2026 - seokgyu enlist H1 2027 - doremiz enlist H1 2028 - seokgyu discharge H2 2028 - doremiz discharge and if this happens after 96z discharge, we could possibly have 2027 caratland and a jp fan meeting as OT11 before the three enlist. but it’s still up to them if that’s what they want, bc doremiz still have time and going to the military isn’t easy after all ㅠ but i don’t think we’ll feel that much loneliness while waiting, bc there are so many possible (and confirmed) activities... 2026 - caratland and maybe a fanmeeting (after jeonghan is discharged and before seokgyu’s enlistment), dxs concert, v8 unit, possible dino solo, possible junshua unit or maybe they’ll focus on acting 2027 - we might get a jxw comeback, and since howoo will be discharged too, we could also finally get the svt leaders comeback that was originally planned before the howoo unit 2028 - seventeen’s 13th year and possible OT13 reunion whether it happens in 2029 or 2030 instead, i just really love how they keep spoiling us and always giving us something fun and new so we won’t feel as sad and lonely while waiting for all 13 of them to be together again 🥹🫂

seungkwan wants youngji to call him oppa, but youngji hates it omg these two 😭 👩🏻: you totally seem like an old man right now. 🍊: really? there were times i seemed like an oppa (older brother) 👩🏻: that’s bc you keep gaslighting me, sunbaenim! “call me oppa,” “oppa is..” it’s just bc i don’t call you oppa. eventually, he started calling himself oppa. “oppa is doing this right now,” “oppa is~” ugh! i really can’t stand it. 🍊: i’ve never seen someone struggle so much with the word ‘oppa’. so i said, “just call me oppa once!” and then we had a big fight over it (...) i like the sound of ‘oppa’ 👩🏻: ugggh i really hate it! 🍊: is the term ‘oppa’ a problem? 👩🏻: why do you like the word ‘oppa’ so much? srsly! 👤: does youngji have anyone to call oppa? 👩🏻: plenty! 🍊: ..? what... 👩🏻: almost everyone except the person on my right 😆 🍊: what... that’s too much... 👩🏻: ey you’re a sunbaenim
