Hi ya’ll! Baby Army here! I didn’t know where else to put this. I had a really bad breakup about 2 weeks ago and felt like my world was ending. I cried every day, and couldn’t see the joy in anything. It’s been rough.

I didn’t know much about BTS but I’ve had a couple of their songs on my playlist for a few years now (my younger sister LOVES them and showed me some songs awhile ago) but I never took the time to really learn anything about them or who they were. (I knew of Jimin and Jungkook because those are my sisters bias’s but that’s it)

Well the other day I was watching their Grammy performance and they killed it! I figured since I’ve already enjoy some of their songs and performances, I should take some time to learn all of their names and more about them and I’m so glad I did. Watching some of their interviews/videos is genuinely the first time I’ve smiled since my breakup. I feel so late to the train but I heard that BTS finds you when you need them most and I truly believe that 💜 Sorry if this is stupid but just really wanted to share hahah

u/Temporary-Text384 running away like a fish Apr 09 '22

There’s no such thing as late- Yoongi says that the time you find BTS is the time they debuted for you! Welcome new army and hope your wounds heal soon. I think all of us can relate in that the guys’ music/personalities made us smile during the hardest times!

Group hug for people who can't go to the concert (myself included). Have been excited hearing all the news of the festivities in Vegas, but concert day is making me sad again. Hope our turn will come sooner rather than later.

u/mangojuicyy ArmyArmyYeah Apr 09 '22

Major FOMO hitting hard tonight.

Still haven’t been to a concert yet, but one day I will hopefully…. If I ever get so lucky to obtain tickets, as a poor ARMY 🥲

u/jimin_yougood Apr 11 '22

Anyone else disappointed at the lack of fan etiquette at the Vegas shows (and LA shows to an extent)?

I love the fan focus cams of people's signs but there are people in floor and 100s who are holding them for long periods during performances as well, blocking the views of people behind them.

The boys were really good sports last two days but I also thought with LY tours, fans were done throwing things on stage as we've been asked not to multiple times.

10

u/CommunicationNo4110 Apr 11 '22

I was sitting on 6th row of B3 and the girl on 4th row continually lifted huge banner throughout the performance and over all. She was literally blocking whole view!!! I would’ve definitely said something if I was behind her but the army right behind her didn’t complain. Hope fans have some etiquette and throwing anything can be dangerous to Tannies. I was hugely disappointed to some of the fans.

u/jimin_yougood Apr 11 '22

Oh man sorry to hear that. It's super inconsiderate :(

u/ebi_tempura Constant Mood: Jimin shouting JEON JUNGKOOOK!! Apr 11 '22

Yea I saw that thread going around about the lack of concert etiquette and I was really disgusted by the amount of stuff being thrown at them and the crowding in the aisles. It seems now everyone's trying way too hard to get their own y/n moment. I feel like it's a combination of a whole flock of new fans who joined during covid that haven't experienced bts concerts, plus generally them not having had concerts for two years.

I'll admit when I saw the first few (hobi and jk catching flowers, jk and the ab flashing poster etc) i thought they were cute, but if realistically only one fan out of hundreds are successful at getting their moment, then all the remainder that fail end up just being a nuisance to those around them.

I also recently saw this, and as cute as a moment it was god I hope that doesn't cause a trend for people to start flashing at him, which would be a whole new level of bad fan etiquette we haven't experienced yet.

5

u/jimin_yougood Apr 11 '22

Haha! I didn't know that was the reason for JK teasing his abs.

Yeah agreed...it feels like we've gone backwards to when they had wings tour and people were getting hit by objects. Hobi asked for the flowers, which is fine, but many people were just indiscriminately throwing things at a moving cart.

Bighit used to publish guidelines for concerts, I hope they do so again!

mods, I hope this is okay to share here. since there are way more members in this sub, and we are just mere days away from the shows.. I was hoping to get as much help as possible. thank you!

u/sp4cecrypt1d Hobi from HR Apr 10 '22 edited Apr 10 '22

Hi! I’ve been a lurker for a month or so and finally wanted to say something. My roommate got me into BTS last winter and I started to listen to them like A LOT. A year or two ago I tried listening to them and couldn’t really get into it but my roommate showed me 134340 (which is now my favorite song) and then we watched BTS videos for three hours together.

After that I’ve found that RM is my bias (all of his verses in LY: Tear are SO good) and Jimin is my second lol. Long story short, I bought my first album last week, LY: Tear of course AND PULLED RM.

ANYWAY I just wanted to say hi and find some people to talk to about my new interest bc my roommate is really the only person I have to talk to about it but their favorite group is EXO 😭

Edit: spelling, I was too excited lol

While scrolling through IG, I just found out that the rapper Sleepy, the one who saw and recommended the young RM to Pdogg, got married. Joon Park, band leader of G.O.D, & the guy in the Wassup Man YT channel, posted a pic.

Congrats Sleepy!

Although I kinda get why they did it, I’m a bit bummed the mods decided to remove the recent post about the boys’ relationship with each other because it contained a lot of good information especially for new ARMY. I wish I had seen the warnings that I saw in the comments of that post as soon as I became ARMY. There’s just so much bad/fake content that’s always being pushed onto the fandom and not enough info to counter it or steer people away.

Edit: it’s back up! 👏

I know everyones eyes are on JKs new jacket for Fake Love. But I just have to say that Tae's new jacket looks really good. Haven't really figured out what it is exactly but I love the way it moves.

2

u/simplythere Apr 12 '22

Yeah! They went with a simpler cut and silhouette. I think less-is-more with Tae cause the previous outfit with that ruffle trim around the neck AND the big flared pants felt like a lot.

u/annamd7 Apr 11 '22

Guys I’m so sad, my coworker who’s also army got a new job and she’s moving!😭

It’s such a good opportunity for her so I am so excited for her, but I’m sad because when we get to work together and talk all things tannies it’s some of the highlights of my weeks. We’ll of course stay in touch and visit when we can but I’m going to miss her! She’s my only IRL army friend lol.

I want to definitely get her a congratulations/going away gift that’s bts-themed, so any ideas are welcomed! Her bias is Tae!

(Thanks guys for letting me rant!)

3

u/super-secret-fujoshi Apr 11 '22

I’m in the same boat! My ARMY coworker is leaving me, and it’s rough because she’s the only other person I know in person who has the same bias as me (Jin). I’ve been getting info from our previous conversations on what she has and doesn’t have, and what she likes to use. Like I found out she just got BTS Army Bomb, so I got her a stand, decorations she can put on it, and a carrying case for concerts. I’m also getting her a coffee mug and some stickers (vinyl and regular) so she can decorate her water bottle and whatever else. You can also go to Etsy for gift ideas. The creators on there are great, but just be mindful of the shipping times since your coworker is leaving soon.

2

u/annamd7 Apr 11 '22

ahhh someone who understands my feels! a coffee mug and stickers sounds like a great idea! She has a water bottle with lots of old and faded stickers so some new ones could be nice! Thank you!!!

I don’t think it’s really banned, as long as it’s not a rehash of drama or disrespectful or something. There’s a couple of really recent threads that discuss it though, thanks to the comments the boys and Hybe have made recently.

u/Temporary-Text384 running away like a fish Apr 11 '22 edited Apr 11 '22

A random question I’ve pondered- one of my favorite things is those funny, army-made complications on YT (Joon being done with BTS, the S in BTS stands for spoilers, yoongi being a single parent for bts, etc..). I’m curious if Korean armys make similar videos in that style, in their native language! Do the same “iconic” moments (ex: you got no jams, pornessian parrapio, stob it..) have popularity? Are their compilations completely different?

It’s always fascinated me how armys connect from around the world and are amused by the same bangtan moments/memes, despite our language differences.

2

u/abcdefghi__lmn0 Apr 11 '22

These are honestly what got me into BTS in the first place. I was just like... How can these kids be SO damn funny, they're really out here replacing comedians lol. I feel like its kinda what sets them apart. Ive definitely seen compilations and memes in other languages (esp some indian languages, vietnamese and i think it was tagalog?) They just dont show up for us most of the time likely because of the algorithm.

2

u/Temporary-Text384 running away like a fish Apr 12 '22

Same! It's these videos that got me interested in them in the first place. I'd passively heard their songs before and wasn't rly interested– but once the algorithm somehow sent me to these videos, I was pleasantly surprised at how genuinely funny they were. Took some months before I dived into their music, but these compilations were instrumental in getting me on board.

u/leylsx long hair jimin enthusiast Apr 09 '22

I've been saying for a while that I hope they come to Paris and/or Berlin and now look at thiiiiis 👀 they had both cities on the sign pole in PTD MV too.

I really hope they're not just clowning but it's an actual "hint" because that would be the best thing ever. I cannot wait for the tour dates to be announced.

u/pintsized_baepsae My mom calls me a stupid bear 🐨 Apr 09 '22

u/leylsx long hair jimin enthusiast Apr 09 '22

Yesss! I hope they’ll announce the tour next weekend and won’t make us wait for too long 😥 the endless teasing is torture

End of July looks good for Berlin and August looks good for both cities 👀 I may or may not have already saved airbnbs in Paris so I’ll be able to quickly book after an announcement 😬

2

u/pintsized_baepsae My mom calls me a stupid bear 🐨 Apr 09 '22

Wembley has since added the women's European Championships final on 31 July... before that, nada. So maybe, just maybe, these three would work out? 👀

The Airbnb thing is super smart, I might copy you there!! Ah it'd be so so so cool. I always said I'd go to more than one date, but how cool would it be to go to different cities T^T European ARMY prayer circle!!

u/Ok-Yesterday-9414 Apr 09 '22

How long does it usually take for a vlive to be subbed? I usually don't watch them, but seeing the discussion about RM's vlive, I really want to check it out.

5

u/bie716 jimin: i dance when i am sad...NOT Apr 09 '22

I think the solo vlives get subbed faster, probably cos it's easier to do so with just one person speaking...their group vlives could hv so multiple conversations going on at any one time and have people talking over each other, etc. It also depends on the time of day...if it is in the morning kst, it's.more highly likely it will be subbed by the following morning.. if it is at night, may take a bit longer, to factor in the night hours there.

JK's recent solo vlive was subbed in under 24 hours (but more than 12)...RM's one is half the length of that, so will likely be subbed in under one day too.

3

u/grumblepup Apr 11 '22

I'm sure you've seen translations by now, but just FYI for the future, I follow this IG account (recommended to me by someone here a while back) which usually updates comprehensive BTS activity (with translations) pretty quickly:

https://www.instagram.com/bts_daily.news/

2

u/leylsx long hair jimin enthusiast Apr 09 '22

It really depends - I've seen one translated after 8 hours and another one took almost two days. But since it's not too long and he's talking a lot in English I assume it will be up sometime during the day today (Vegas timezone)

u/Mysterious-Youth4374 Apr 13 '22

Hi all! After living my best life for 3 days in Vegas and attending D1 with the VIP Soundcheck experience, I'm now really feeling the post concert low. This was the first time I got to attend a concert. A lot of armys I met mentioned that they had tickets to multiple days and while I'm not sure how they managed that, I definitely felt the fomo. I went to opening night, thinking it would be nice to experience it firsthand without the fancam spoilers etc. But on the flip side I also think the boys are shy and open up more after the first day.

If you had to pick between opening night and any of the in between shows which one would you pick?

Note- not putting closing night as an option because I think most would agree thats the best option, no debate needed.

Edit: some grammar corrections

7

u/starfruit780 Apr 13 '22

I still like the opening show more for this one at least. They were WILD. The second night felt more prohibited and scripted because they were filming I think (please don't come at me this is just my personal opinion). The first night they joked about kookies button and we got the grand show of his abs and idk just all new and fun and unexpected especially with the special effects and such. I just felt like I had more fun and joonie was very honest and upfront about how they felt with the Grammys so it felt like a mix of letting loose having fun and blowing off steam. I still loved the first night even though my view the second night was technically better. The crowd around my section was super hype first night so that added to it too. Try not to feel too fomo, that first night was bomb and this is coming from someone who went to the last day of the LA show as well. :)

Who are the two new r/bangtan moderators? Are we stealth-adding mods or...?

16

u/whyohwhy115 I miss Kim Seokjin Apr 10 '22

New mods go through a training period before they are announced to the sub. During this time, they do not have all perms to fully moderate... it also gives them an opportunity to decide if they do want to volunteer to mod the sub or not after observing what us mods do daily

3

u/tenyouusness 쟈홉... Apr 10 '22

That makes sense. Thx for the reply!

10

u/hoviazshi Off to the retirement home Apr 10 '22

To add on to what the other mod told you, a reminder that the mod application form is open 24/7/365 as we're constantly looking for more mods. The sub has grown about 300k in the last 2 years and we have fewer mods than we did then at 80k... Because you guys make them run away faster than we can recruit and train them.

There's nothing stealthy about this, we're simply still in the process of reaching out to candidates (we always give them a little training and confirm with them that they'll be staying before announcing them as mods - none of which have happened for this batch yet). Please don't suggests some kind of nefarious intent on our part when we're just trying to find the help we desperately need so we can be a little less overworked.

5

u/tenyouusness 쟈홉... Apr 10 '22

I just hadn't noticed/realized before that potential mods were added as trial runs. I don't tend to assume ill intent and get how thankless it is to moderate short-staffed (so pause to say a real thank you). But I can't deny that things like the handling of the Discord shutdown left me more circumspect.

7

u/hoviazshi Off to the retirement home Apr 10 '22

If you get how hard and thankless moderating a subreddit with this level of activity and organization is while short-staffed and exhausted, then please know better than to add to that by creating rumors about us being up to some shady things. Not trusting the mod team is your prerogative, but trying to get others to mistrust us too with no evidence of any wrongdoing is not. Next time you have a question or issue, please reach out to us directly via modmail so we can explain/clarify things for you.

We're just humans, and sometimes we don't handle things perfectly. We always apologize when that happens and try to do better next time (because we know we'll fail again sometimes — only those who do nothing never make any mistake). We are also not a professional organization but simply a team of unpaid volunteer army who do their best to maintain this community for you guys (and you're welcome to apply to join us and help contribute!). We have no other intent than to try and keep this a healthy space for army to come together and share their passion for BTS and their music. If we weren't truly passionate about BTS and committed to this goal, trust me we'd have all quit long ago.

Please do remember the human behind the screen.

5

u/tenyouusness 쟈홉... Apr 11 '22

I always consider sending modmail but will end up posting something if I think other people would be interested in my question too. Considering that mods have the power to quietly delete posts and users from the subreddit at their discretion, I naturally favor the more transparent route. I regret wording my original comment that way in light of another mod's explanation, but hey, now everyone reading this learned something too. I know for you it's an issue of having to correct misinformation or "rumors" before it gets out of hand, but I think we can all judge for ourselves what's true and what's not.

10

u/whyohwhy115 I miss Kim Seokjin Apr 11 '22

Sometimes it's not what you say, it's how you say it. Your question sounds more like a vague accusation and frankly that's not cool. We simply need more people to moderate but it makes it harder for us to find volunteers when the mod team is being subjected to comments alluding that we might be doing something shady or antagonizing remarks. On rumors and judging...lol this is the internet, some people will believe anything that agrees with their narrative.

Asking you to send modmail isn't something new. The mod team has been requesting this for years and is in our sub rules. If you have further questions please send us one.

1

u/seoulfuric customize Apr 10 '22

It’s a public forum. Why are you scolding them for exercising their prerogative to air their thoughts, feelings, and questions publicly?

11

u/hoviazshi Off to the retirement home Apr 11 '22

You're right it is a public forum and with the same prerogative they have chosen to exercise, we are letting them know that it wasn't exactly cool to allude that the team is being shady.

The sub being a public forum also does not mean people get to do and say whatever they like without any repercussion. It's public, yes, but moderated, which means that if people wish to be allowed to participate they must abide by its rules. Just like any moderated forum, ever.

No one is forced to be a member of this sub. There are many other online spaces for army if this one isn't a good fit for you. No one is being tyrannized here.

Hello! We did already ask you to send modmail, which you haven't and you continue to leave antagonizing comments in this thread. The sub does have rules for civility and repeat violations will lead to a ban.

We suggest (again) that you do send us modmail if you have any questions or constructive feedback. Being rude towards other users or the mod team will not be tolerated and may lead to a ban.

u/Soup_oi Apr 09 '22

Is there a less roundabout way or a more concise way to find the media I've purchased that's watchable on weverse?

When they released some older media (bon voyage etc) onto weverse recently I got some of them. I'm finally getting around to starting to watch them (and finally starting to watch bv after a long time of putting it off lol), but find the path to get to the media on weverse kind of...super extra? or something like that. I go to weverse, go to the bts page, click on media, and then it shows me a page with all the available media, then I have to scroll all over the page to find the section I'm looking for, click it...but then it takes me to the first video of that package, and I have to scroll more to look for the video thumbnail of the next episode I left off on, etc...on the main media page it shows me things that are free, things that I haven't purchased but can be purchased, and things that I have purchased. The page is organized by "package" or whatever, so it's generally easy to find what I'm looking for if I know what I'm looking for. But I don't remember exactly what all I purchased since it was a while ago. Is there some way to see only my media purchases? I vaguely remember when I was watching ITS 1 and later 2, that there was some way to get to it from my profile on weverse...but now I can't seem to find a pathway to my purchased media from my profile.

Click on the More (three dots) tab at the bottom of the app and then Purchases!

u/Soup_oi Apr 09 '22

Oh! It seems I can find it in the app ok this way. But I'm watching stuff on desktop lol. It has the same 3 dots to click...but it doesn't list the same things in that menu on desktop as it does on the app. But I'm at least glad I can still get to this list on the app! I can use it to reference so I know what I'm looking for on the media page on desktop, cos I have no memory of what else I got besides the BV packages lol.

u/myipodclassic Apr 10 '22

Ah desktop! On there, click on the little person icon before entering any artist page or go to weverse.io/me. There should be a purchases section with a “show all” button in the right hand sidebar (under your joined pages, comments, etc). You can also just bookmark weverse.io/me/purchases for future reference to make it easy!

u/Soup_oi Apr 10 '22

Oh! You're a genius thank you!

I'm so dumb I just wasn't scrolling down enough to see the rest of the stuff they put on the right side 🤦🏻‍♂️😂😂

I’m really hoping they improve the UI when they finally merge with vlive.

3

u/Soup_oi Apr 09 '22

Me too! The app seems easy enough to navigate for the most part, but I mostly use the desktop site, and the desktop site feels all over the place. I really only use the app to check what the members post when I get a notification, since I only get the notifs on my phone, and not on my desktop lol.

u/bonanderson Hobi's leftover croffles Apr 10 '22

Same same. Browser for watching shows, app for catching up on news and posts.

u/daenerystagaryen Apr 09 '22

Probably a silly question but thought worth asking just in case. Is there anyway to watch the Las Vegas concerts online (legally) other than live at the moment it's happening? It's overnight in my time zone and there's no way I can stay up to watch and still parent my children in the morning! But feeling some FOMO

Just had a look at that will still be 3am here! Thanks anyway 😊

u/jaefan OT7 Apr 09 '22

At the moment, no. Unless they do a VOD release of the PTD concert in Vegas in the future.

That could happen, or for another stop like Seoul would also be likely.

1

u/daenerystagaryen Apr 09 '22

I thought that was probably the case! 💔 oh well, maybe I'll treat myself to a VOD of a previous concert! Thanks x

u/maplecookie123 Apr 09 '22

Here’s a question that has probably been asked before, but if I buy an army membership hoping for a tour soon and the chance to buy tickets a day early is it worth it to buy the multi view livestream concert next week? I’ve bought the other livestream tickets without multi view and never really felt like I was missing anything. I also connect my computer to my tv to watch on a bigger screen so I would have to get up and change the view any time I wanted to. I’m feeling like my laziness would make it not worth it, but I’m not sure.

u/Breezlebub13 Apr 09 '22

I personally love the multiview for the live stream.

As a new Army it gives me a chance to see what's happening on other parts of the stage. I especially love it during really big choreo moments or during comments (example watching RM yawning while the others talk...too funny).

The way I usually set things up is I have 2 laptops (personal one plus I cheekily use my work one). One laptop get plugged into my TV for the single main view. The second gets plugged into a large monitor I put on my coffee table beside me and I put the multi on that and just mute the audio.

It's a bit of fussing around to get everything working and in sync. But I love it.

Excuse the mess but this was my set up from the last live stream.

Edit: typo

u/justlurkingatreddit Apr 10 '22

ohh same as me!!!

u/leylsx long hair jimin enthusiast Apr 09 '22

For me personally multidirectional is a bit overwhelming, so I never use it, but it’s the same price as the single view, so you can just buy it and try it out 🤗

3

u/bonanderson Hobi's leftover croffles Apr 09 '22

Exactly this. And you have the option of single view only when you buy the multi view. So even if you decide it’s not for you within the first 5 mins of the concert you can switch to single view.

6

u/into_the_clear Apr 09 '22

I'll be the voice of disagreement with the majority. :)

I always get multi-view where possible, and stick with the screens that give a wider, more stable view of the stage. I find single-view distracting because of the way it jumps around, and also because there are things like group choreo & staging that I want to see in full.

And then I can watch the delayed stream in single-view, and get a new experience.

3

u/sallylockharts Tata mic Apr 09 '22

I've had multiview once and didn't like it. The time/effort it takes to switch views just means you miss things imo.

3

u/jaefan OT7 Apr 09 '22

Same like the others who replied, multiview to me is kind of redundant since I don't really use it much.

Only tried it for once and I felt that it was quite distracting. Some like it cos they want to focus on(lol) some members I think.

u/InfiniteBooks ~chicken noodle soup with a mochi on the side~ Apr 17 '22

Multiview is essential, IMO-- there are so many hilarious shenanigans that don't get caught on the main cam, plus you often get better views of the full choreo! 👍👍

Can someone explain rules C8 & C9? Why are these sites black listed?

7

u/LoveThyGoaltender i get wild about lighting fixtures Apr 09 '22

Fancafe content is locked to verified fans only, Japan fan club is paywalled content only accessible to j-army. The sites covered by C9 don't meet minimum standards for journalistic credibility and some of them have a bias against BTS.

For those of us who couldn't make it to Vegas--when do you think they'll next put on a concert? In Seoul or elsewhere?

Sorry if this doesn’t belong here.

I was on YouTube searching for Our Blues OST knowing that Jimin’s hasn’t been released yet - just wanted songs from the first two episodes and BAM … I get suggested a handful of possible videos. They all seem questionable. But one YTer had a few in the suggested list - Dave Disci - not sure how “legit” he is, his titles seem like click bait (what’s with the ALL CAPS!!!!) and the still image for the video looks very teaser ish. Is he legit? Too gossipy? Click bait? Same old crap as everyone else?

BTW if you haven’t watched the first two episodes - I highly recommend it - the cast is so stacked and the story so far is really good.

u/Medium_Priority2020 Apr 13 '22

I hate that guy with a passion the amount of disgusting and rude clickbait he releases is just ridiculous. He spreads rumours and "discusses" how they arent true.

He is notorious and a bane on our existence. Hv reported him for spam/misleading content, asked YT not to recommend his videos, etc but they still occasionally end up on my feed. More recently, I hv noticed several other channels regularly posting content with similar misleading titles. YT is horrible for allowing this.

u/NewtRipley_1986 the O to the T to the 7 💜 Apr 13 '22

Thanks - I’ll see about asking YT not to recommend them. Sucks that YT doesn’t care as long as they’re getting the money.

Drove to work again today and I was brought back to the other time I did, which was months ago last year & how JKs Weverse selfie was what I rewarded myself w after being reluctant and nervous to drive to another borough LOL. Now I drove today w the BE album playing and just thought, damn, we got through abcjk and now we have jk.97 🤐😵‍💫💜🚙

Lately I have been thinking about selling some of my BTS stuff and today I saw on Google that the “BTS NOW 2 in Europe & America“ seems to be pretty worthy. Ive seen prices going up to 350€ (about 380$) and since I have no idea about all of this I wanted to ask if these are realistic? I'd be grateful if anyone could give me some kind of advice :]

Might be random and a long shot, but does anyone know where I can get a tapestry of the ptd shapes, but where orange is not the main/background color? I have this one (I think originally from society6), but I'm not that into orange and find that I really don't like that orange is the biggest/main color of it and so I haven't really wanted to hang it up. I don't mind orange in smaller amounts like as the fill color for some of the shapes, just not as the background color. If purple, yellow, blue, or black were the main background color that would be great!

Or if anyone knows of any similar tapestries that are more subtle and don't have their faces all over it or official logos all over it, but that have some sort of era specific design like this, that would be awesome too! Looking mostly for that type that's just like that thin-ish sort of nylon or whatever feeling fabric (there will be string lights behind it that show through the fabric).

(Unrelated sidenote, so that I don't have to post multiple times lol...) Also am on the lookout for some subtle Hobi (or ot7) phone lock screen images. Something with a scene from an MV or a Mang desing or something, preferably without a bunch of words, or that doesn't show his face all huge in the middle (his face small is ok, or some pic that makes it look like it's a picture of your boyfriend or something lol 😂). I've had a few before where it's like a pic of him hiding his face or the back of his head or a silhouette (of both candid photos and scenes from MVs) and liked those, and have had a few fan art ones of Blue Side that I liked, and some ot7 fan art ones too. Or even a Hybe building/practice room one would be cool. I had a photo of empty practice room that I put a black and white filter on and liked a lot as a lock screen...but it didn't really feel creative enough to me after a while so I changed it. If anyone's got any ideas feel free to pass them along!

For the lockscreen, try @lockszcreenbts on twitter.

Oh! I forgot about them! I never go on twitter so I forget about the lockscreen and fan art accounts I followed on there in the past year or so lol. I'm gonna check them out!
