Don't be afraid to talk about issues you believe are important. Don't be afraid to take a stand. Don't be afraid to speak yourself. Because if we don't talk about these things, who will? Happy Tuesday!

Saengil chukkha hamnida...
Happy happy birthday, our youngest! May you be bright and happy forever. I wish i had a more creative way to express my good wishes for you, but this will have to do. I'm so proud of the person you have been, as well as the person you're becoming. It's hard to believe you're only 22 in international years, since I've seen you growing up for so long. Yet, it is only in the last year that you've begun to really take on the look of a man, not our shy, innocent baby bunny.
And it's momentarily sad to see that sweet fresh face go. But the sadness is short-lived. There's still wonder in your expression at the new things you continue to encounter. And there's still caring for the people and environment around you. There's more humor, though, sometimes at your hyungs' expense. And there's definitely a little more devil in your wandering gaze... That's ok because your personality needs to fill out, like your anatomy. Your talents have grown minimally because they were already outstanding, not much room for improvement there. But your skills in using those talents continues to expand. As does the sheer amount of talents you possess. Smh still truly, the Golden Maknae.
Lastly, I'm happy to keep watching from the back as a proud and thankful fan, as you keep on growing. Becoming the man you are, from the melding of 6 other influences, into your own true personality. Hopefully blessed and successful in whatever means you choose to be. Happy with whomever you choose to surround yourself with. And healthy, in all ways, for a long long time.
Happy birthday, Jeon Jungkook! You are truly wished this by millions around the world and me!! ❄👸
Guuuuys! It's 🍬🃏! I'm so, so, so sorry for using last week's photos on the previous post. 😭 It's mu fault for not checking properly. Here is a second post to make up for it.

This is Admin 🍬🃏(Candy Joker)! This short video was supposed to be a gif, but... 😅 I wanted to showcase Jungkook through the years and how much he has grown up. Actually, I'm only a year younger than him, and even though I've never met him, probably never will, I feel like I grew up with him. All of the BTS members inspire me, but Jungkook has a special meaning to me. Watching him has made me think "Ah, so someone as young as me can do it, I just have to work hard." It's been my code, I've worked harder while watching him. Thank you for existing, for giving me courage, for being yourself. You've grown into a fine man and words can't describe how much I wish to continue seeing you succeeding and being happy. Please always stay healthy, always stay your amazing, lovable self. Let's continue growing together. 💜 Happy Birthday Jeon Jungkook. Even though you may never see this, and even though people may not think much of it, I hope you can feel AMRYs energy all over the world, buzzing and humming with love for you. 생일축하해! • • • • • • • #jungkook #jeonjungkook #kookie #정국 #전정국#bts #bangtan #bangtanboys #bangtansonyeondan #방탄소년단 #정국새일ㅊㅋ #happybirthdayjungkook https://www.instagram.com/p/B11UaQWFav_/?igshid=1x3f48mzwap40

Whalien 52
Many others have discussed this song and done it well, but Imma use it to start our move into BTS' music and symbology. Because, to my mind, it's one of BTS' best songs ever and embodies everything that's so special about them. First, let's look at the lyrics. I'll write the translation out here and not repeat the refrain, for space purposes. I'm using Genius English Translations. I'll also indicate which rapper sings which part, so you know what they wrote, basically.
RM:
Yeah, the most lonely creature in the world
Eh, do you want to know my story?
I've never told this to anybody
Yeah, come on
Suga:
In the middle of the vast ocean
One whale speaks softly and lonelily
The fact that no matter how much they shout, it won't reach
Makes them so gravely lonely that they quietly shut their mouths
Of course i don't care what's the matter or what I've now become
When loneliness is the only thing that stays by my side
I've become completely alone. It's a lock that fills sadness
Someone says "Bastard, you've become a celebrity"
Oh fuck that! So what?! Nobody remains by my side and I'm fine on my own
These words that are easily said towards me quickly becomes a wall
Even loneliness turns into something you can see
Even if my breaths are blocked
Because I'm confined in that wall
Head towards the surface of water above
Hey oh, oh hey oh yeah
Chorus:
Lonely lonely lonely whale
Sing alone like this!
Will i ever shine so brightly like a remote island?
Lonely lonely lonely whale
Like this, try calling once again
Until this song that doesn't have a response
Reaches tomorrow
No more, no more baby
No more, no more
An endless signal will reach someday
Everywhere, even to the other side of the earth
No more, no more baby
No more, no more
Even the blind whales will be able to see me
Today i sing again
J-Hope:
The world will never know
How sad i am
My hurt is oil and water that can't mix
So only above the surface of the water do I
Breathe, and the interest ends
A child in the lonely ocean
I want to make it known too
My value, Everyday
I become sick with worry, the sticker always beneath my ear
Never end... Why is there no end and always hell?
As time goes by, it's a Neverland in a cold abyss!
But I always think, now
Even if i sleep a shrimp's sleep, my dreams are like that of a whale's
The upcoming big praise will make me dance everyday
Like me, Ye I'm swimmin'
Bridge:
I go towards my future
That blue beach and
Believe in my hertz
Hey oh, oh hey oh yeah
RM:
Mom said the sea is blue
She said to let out your voice as far as you can
But what do i do? It's so dark here and there are only different whales
speaking entirely different words!
I just can't hold it, ma! I want to say I love you
Alone, I look back at this music sheet that's like a rotating song
This ocean is too deep
Still, I'm lucky
(No one besides me knows of these tears.)
I'm a whalien.
Chorus to end
Wow, really strong moving lyrics. Just by reading, you can feel the pain and loneliness that they've experienced. Now add the music and voices. Even down to Adora's adlibs in the background, reminiscent of whale songs...
(Adora is a long-time producer with BigHit, in case you were unaware.) And the way they use the "radio sound" to make RM's voice sound further away. And lonelier. The credits for writing this are Kim Namjoon, Min Yunki, Jung Hoseok, Brother(?) Su, PDogg, Hitman Bang and Slow Rabbit. They are the dream team, when it comes to some of BTS' best songs.
Then you figure out that the basis of the song is the 52-hertz Whale, the loneliest whale in the world. The story goes, a scientist discovered a lone whale in the Pacific who sang at the frequency of 52 hz. And whales can only hear up to about 40hz. So none could ever hear it sing. But it sang its song throughout the ocean, nonetheless.
What genius! Why aren't there more songs about this?!? Isn't it the perfect basis for a song? Then, they added alien to the word! The very spirit of feeling disassociated, unfamiliar, remote... unheard. The incredible word play that BTS is known for, on full display. How could you not love this song? It's not a trite boyband love song, but rather, a scream from the soul, much like whale song. Reaching out to those around the world who can "hear" this level of loneliness and want. And doing what BTS has always done... Letting the listener know they can "hear" you, too. And they share your fears. And they're in this with the rest of the world. But we are together. Our lonely songs in the dark aren't in vain. They will be rewarded with time, as in all else. Keep singing, no matter who hears, because your song is also valid and necessary in the world.
So, if you haven't heard this song, it's off of their HYYH (The Most Beautiful Moment in Life) pt 2 album. Released all the way back in November, 2015. Go listen immediately. It's obviously one of my favorite songs in the world. And I would love to share it with everyone. Even while we're all singing our own songs. ❄👸

Decided to have a little follow up chat about the awards show that happened last night. Mostly for 2 reasons; one, I was soooo impressed with Twitter ARMY for creating and trending the #Purple Carpet and #BTS video music awards! Secondly, I was just saddened and angered by what happened, in the first place.
So thunderous applause and many thanks to the tens of thousands of ARMY that, once again, stood up for decency by not watching that disgraceful mess. AND made it fun for ourselves and others online! You were the real winners last night, with all your creativity. Also huge thanks to the ARMY that stood with us and voted, despite what that tv channel says. We know who should've won all the main categories, and we did a great job standing up against intolerance.
But, we're still faced with the possibility this could happen again. And we must figure out how to make our voices heard, for real change, if it does. I was so angry that they clearly subverted a category we obviously would have won. There's no doubt, in my mind, that BTS were disrespected twice last night. More importantly, what can we do about this in the future, should others try it? S. Korea has a criminal investigation pending for rigged voting on a show, even now. Not to do with BTS but it does happen, everywhere.
What I'm talking about isn't by going the way of the courts, though, yet. But heading them off before they get there. Hopefully our boycott will have strongly impacted the revenue the advertisers receive from their support of that show. So that would certainly impact future situations. Another option is addressing the advertisers directly, should we need to, in the future. And we did have the entertainment media behind us, as well. It may be an option to utilize that resource more fully, if need be.
Lastly, not only was I disappointed by an American entertainment company, but I was disappointed by American entertainers. We know the 💲 has reigned supreme for a long time now, not artistry or values. But to see no one stand up against the hypocrisy, and instead fully embrace it, left me angry. There are so many in the entertainment industry who are quick to stand up for a popular trend, why would none of them take the initiative to boycott the show with us? It's definitely something I'll be bringing up and bringing attention to, if we wind up here again. So consider our options, ARMY. We're huge and powerful together. And we can stop injustices. Yes, it's just a music show, but the ideals that were stepped on are big. So we should continue to speak ourselves by speaking against racism and inequality.
Off the soapbox, for now 😁 Thanks to everyone for all their support this time and let's keep winning with BTS!! ❄👸
