Hey! Hallie here! This topic keeps coming up, today being good example, and a lot of ARMYs are easily frightened by the idea that BTS will have to complete mandatory military service. Who wouldn’t be? It sucks that ARMYs at some point might have to wait nearly two years for each or all of theContinue reading “K-Pop and K-Dramas: BTS and Military Service”

K-Pop and K-Dramas: BTS’s Magic Shop
Hi! It’s Annie! After BangBang Con, I couldn’t help but fall more in love with the concept of the Magic Shop. Especially after watching their 5th Muster concert and seeing how much they used of the Magic Shop story. That really was the concert for this concept, and it was one of the best concertContinue reading “K-Pop and K-Dramas: BTS’s Magic Shop”
K-Pop and K-Dramas: Bang Bang Con 2021
Hey! Hallie here! Yesterday (and for a lot of us, this morning) was 2021’s Bang Bang Con. Bang Bang Con was created by the members of BTS to give ARMYs an alternative to a concert while the pandemic was preventing BTS from touring. As this is still the case, this Bang Bang Con was aContinue reading “K-Pop and K-Dramas: Bang Bang Con 2021”
K-Pop and K-Dramas: “Dynamite” Hit 1 Billion on Youtube!
Hey! Hallie here! BTS is constantly breaking records. From individual mixtapes hitting unseen highs for Korean artists, to new songs topping the charts immediately after release, there’s always some sort of congratulatory hashtag trending on Twitter.

K-Pop and K-Dramas: BTS in the Soop
Hi! It’s Annie! I finally just finished watching all of ‘Bon Voyage’ as well as the equivalent this year because of quarantine; the COVID safe ‘BTS in the Soop’. Obviously, the year of 2020 made it difficult if not impossible for anyone to travel anywhere and it wasn’t safe to do so either, so theContinue reading “K-Pop and K-Dramas: BTS in the Soop”
K-Pop and K-Dramas: Infantilizing Idols
Hey! Hallie here! This specifically is an interesting problem because it’s something both fans of K-Pop and those who dislike K-Pop suffer from. It’s prevalent in multiple groups as well, though, being ARMY, I tend to notice it most in the BTS fandom. This problem doesn’t stem from using the term “baby” to describe aContinue reading “K-Pop and K-Dramas: Infantilizing Idols”
K-Pop and K-Dramas: Don’t Mess With BTS
Hi! It’s Annie! I’m sorry, but I can’t leave the stuff about the Grammys just yet. Especially not after the new developments from today. Because if you mess with BTS you’re going to get on the nerves of the very protective ARMY, and now we’ve actually seen some of the effects of that. Yes, BTSContinue reading “K-Pop and K-Dramas: Don’t Mess With BTS”
K-Pop and K-Dramas: BTS Didn’t Win
Hey! Hallie here! So today was…disappointing. Actually that’s an understatement. The way BTS was treated this year, just like every year, was outright unfair. The outpouring of support from ARMY, and from BTS right back, made the bad news of today a little more bearable, though. Let’s go through the events of today and recapContinue reading “K-Pop and K-Dramas: BTS Didn’t Win”
K-Pop and K-Dramas: Line Friends Store Hollywood
Hi! It’s Annie! I feel like this blog is slowly being taken over completely by BTS and I really hope you’re not mad at it. This is a very BTS weekend considering the Grammys, though that situation makes me nervous. So I guess here’s a more lighthearted BTS post before whatever happens tomorrow. Most ofContinue reading “K-Pop and K-Dramas: Line Friends Store Hollywood”
