members are actually very good with keeping things private but it is very hard since they are so big

2024-01-16 22:01:01 +0000 UTCJungkook and Jimin are so dedicated and give 100000% every single time, as well as their personalities and their bond together, its one of the reasons why they are both my biases

2024-01-16 19:50:20 +0000 UTCOnce you've watched the movie I hope you go onto the newest docuseries that just finished last week, however with that one I would really recommend you watch 2 episodes at once as thats how it was aired, and the first 4 episodes are pretty much footage from the old docuseries with a bit of new footage, then the last 4 episodes is all new stuff

2024-01-15 22:44:40 +0000 UTCIn terms of invasion of privacy, one of the ones that freaked me out a lot was when Jin had just started military service and an unauthorized nurse managed to get to him during his medical check up and even administered a vaccine. She was in the military but was working at a different base and managed to somehow get to his base. And Jungkook seems to get the worst of it. In one of his lives, he said something like "I'm sure all of you watching already know my address" which made me so sad. The invasion of privacy is so normalized that he's completely accepted it, it's the norm for him now. They deserve better.

2024-01-14 19:44:42 +0000 UTCI don't wanna make this too long but i genuinely could go on and on about the continuous privacy invasion and unauthorized attempts to make a profit out of the members. The entitlement is absolutely baffling. Around a week ago there were news that HYBE had sent a warning letter to the operator of a military app as they were using BTS' names to sell merchandise and uploading photos of the members serving in the military without their or their label's permission. By doing this, they violated the members' publicity rights, the personal information protection act and many others, and the label is/was planning to take legal action. Also around a week ago there was a comic book writer (with multiple SA + abuse allegations, mind you) trying to sell a comic full of misinformation, parts degrading women and belittling BTS. When we didn't bite and wanted to see proof of licensing, the writer started blocking ARMYs on twitter and made fun of us on other platforms. There was also an incident with a Korean railroad corp and one of their employees who had been using his position to access Namjoon's personal info since 2019. He still has his job by the way! Another incident that happened with Namjoon was about a year ago when he went to visit a monk who ended up selling Namjoon's private info and conversations to a journalist, which all obviously ended up on the internet. Last year Jungkook was also sent food to his front door, he was stalked around his gym, and he mentioned sasaengs (invasive, obsessive ''fans'') constantly hanging around his own home. And this is just the tip of the iceberg. These are just some of the bigger, more recent incidents. I cannot even imagine how exhausting all of this is for them.

2024-01-14 01:23:04 +0000 UTCYeah I do! That was crazy. Imagine not being able to even buy a train ticket or go to a temple without having your private information leaked. That's so messed up.

2024-01-13 22:30:06 +0000 UTComg yes. Yall remember when someone from the train company was "selling" RM's private info and they were later suspended in their work? Like, it's not even people you'd expect to to do you dirty. Recently there was a report that person who did this came back to work. That's the craziest thing for me. They should be fired. Or when RM went to the temple to meet a monk and that monk contacted press and gave them info on what he was dissgusing with RM. You can't even trust the monk!

2024-01-13 22:16:52 +0000 UTCAs a brazilian fan ππΌ, this episode is so special to me. Sadly I didn't get to go to the concerts, but seeing the crowd singing with Jimin gets me emotional everytime. Thank you for another great reaction.

2024-01-13 21:48:28 +0000 UTCThere is a term in korea called "Sasaeng". It is someone that is so obsessed with a celebrity that they stalk them, takes pictures, harass family members, sends disturbing gifts, go to their homes or try to find out other private information. Unfortunatly bts has had to deal with this countless of times. In a recent live before Jungkook went to the military he was on his way home and called the sasaengs out, he said "Even nowadays there are sasaengs in front of my house. Stop coming, you bastards". Earlier this year Jungkook also made a post on weverse where he begged people to stop sending food to his house. Some were angry at Jungkook for saying this bc they thought it was rude of him when the person just wanted to make a friendly gesture. For me that is (excuse my language) absolute bullshit. This person found out Jungkook's private address to send him something that he cant even eat! What if it was poisoned?! There are so many other incidents were people found their phone numbers and spammed them, or that they had people grab or run at them. I feel sorry for bts that they have to deal with all these crazy people. I hope they will continue to call them out like Jungkook did, cause they really harm their well being both mentally and even phycically sometimes.

2024-01-13 19:44:06 +0000 UTCwhat I really love about watching the decu series chronologically is that you get to appreciate more abour their hard work, and you notice that even though they are huge huge stars they stay humble, I you notice their hard work and how well they manage their own struggles because they learned through the years how to do it.

2024-01-13 19:42:33 +0000 UTCoh I love saturdays <3 thank you for reacting to the new episode, I really hope you can react to one of their concerts from this Speak Yourself tour because the shows are so good it could be Sao Paulo's o Wemble's.

2024-01-13 19:39:19 +0000 UTCThe scenes of Brazilian army singing for Jimin when he couldn't ALWAYS gets me to tear up!

2024-01-13 18:56:49 +0000 UTCTo your point of them not having any privacy or people looking to profit from them or things they want to keep private: just a couple days ago there was a writer/a comic book publisher who advertised this "bts comic" and how army would love it as it shows the guys' history in a new way blablabla and when army kept asking if this was an official and authorised work that BTS and their label had consented to, the publisher claimed that they had the right to use their intellectual property since they are public personas with publicly acsessible content/information. When army kept saying that this is not ok and that we don't support them wanting to profit off of BTS without their knowledge or sign of approval of the content, the publisher and the writer started getting really nasty saying stuff like other fandoms appreciate their content without being bitches about it (paraphrasing but that's what they basically said). After that it came to light that the author of this comic book had not only been fired from another comic publisher due to MULTIPLE SA allegations but he also made jokes about BTS "proving" whether they're actually bulletproof in the military rn AND the comic book had SO much misinformation and ugly takes while also portraying the fans as rabid fangirls who are happy about their military time because they're getting "tough" and "hot" basically....yeah it got ugly and army tried to spread this information everywhere so that no fan would buy this garbage and the author kept doubling down and even called all the fans bots paid by Hybe lol. tl;dr: yeah it's really hard when you can't really control the narrative and what people will spread about you because there WILL be people who try to profit from you and won't care if it is with false information
