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

I figured since it's Hobi day, we could talk a little about our amazing dancer,  rapper J-Hope. Let's talk about his kindness, his charitableness, his caring nature. First off, he's an essential part of BTS (as they all are). His contributions to the team are limitless but that's not we're talking about today. I think, today we can just focus on the truly nice guy our Jung Hoseok is.

   The thing that occurs to me when we talk of Hobi's sweetness is his love for the members. The way he can make Yoongi smile with his extraness. Or how he can take the pressure from Jin by being funny. There's love and admiration for RM that you can see in his eyes. And, of course, his adoration for the maknaes shines through very brightly. They're his personal cuddle buddies and comforters, his very own collection of trolls and inspiration. All together, the 7 are perfect compatibility with J-Hope in the middle. 

   He's also commonly expressed his love for his family, his mom and dad, and his sister. That's something you don't hear from most guys enough, but our Hobi never forgets. And his love for his dog, Mickey, proves that his beautiful heart extends to all things.

   After you talk about the obvious, there's his love for Army. And he's second to none when it comes to showering us with the abundance of affection he has. His happy dances, performed for our amusement, spraying hearts in all directions, are sure to make any Army's heart glow brighter. His willingness to try things he's afraid of or doesn't like, just to keep us entertained, is purely selfless. There's so much he's endured for our sake. 😁 poor baby! But that's a show of his love, too. I've never gotten to see him up close, personally, but this video conveys how much he wants to share with us, I think. A crying girl in the crowd, moved by their performance, captured his attention. He's in the middle of a huge concert, but he gives this girl the only thing he can, to comfort her. Whether he thought she was happy or sad, he wanted to let her know they share those feelings. Giving her his bag, a key "Hobi" point, was a wonderful gesture of love and sharing that was probably a split second decision. But it really strongly points to his nature of caring. How lucky we are, Army, to have Hoseok in our lives!!! That's enough gushing for today 😄 but if you have any story to tell about our Sunshine, or fanart, or just want to agree, our messages are open. You can also always email us at bts.armyxyou@outlook.com

   Happy Hobi 🌼🌞 day!

   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. ❄👸
