BTS Jimin’s Solo Songs Smashes Spotify Record for a Korean Act

7 months after BTS Jimin became the second Korean act to have 2 songs surpassing 50 million streams on Spotify, (a feat no one in 5 years ac

When you talk of Jimin, there are a lot of things to say.

One of the biggest is how wonderful his solo song, "Promise", is.

He wrote it with alot of time and effort, as he does most things. When you get a chance, check it out on Spotify!

What a way to start the week early! "Tomorrow" has to be a fave for everyone, right?! • • • • • • • • • • #bts #bangtanboys #방탄소년단 #jin #seokjin #김석진 #석진 #진 #suga #yoongi #슈가 #민윤기 #jhope #hoseok #정호석 #호석 #rm #namjoon #김남준 #남준 #jimin #지민 #박지민 #v #taehyung #김태형 #jungkook #정국 #전정국 https://www.instagram.com/p/B1BaszdFmZn/?igshid=1dnvlq6bqw865

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!

"Everybody say NO..."

Dear A.R.M.Y., today we have something a little more serious to talk about. And it's a delicate subject. But one that we think really has to be addressed, not only for our boys, but the long term ramifications, as well.

While we want to always be grateful for any accolades BTS is given, the process being used by MTv this year is not actually an accolade but a segregation. It's xenophobia or at its base, racism. Those are strong words to be used at any time, but it really is the basis of what MTV has done by creating a "kpop" category. And this is the only way they'll award Korean groups?

BTS stands for the exact opposite of what MTv is doing with this category. BTS and ARMY are about breaking down barriers, overcoming prejudices. South Korean President Moon Jae In said, "At the very heart of BTS' outstanding dancing and singing is sincerity. This magical power turns grief into hope and differences into similarity. Each of the seven members sings in a way that is true to himself and the life he wants to live. Their melody and lyrics transcend regional borders, language, culture, and institutions." If only MTv could understand. They are merely a tv channel, that is discriminating against an entire population, again. Whether at the behest of advertisers or corporate heads, it's not important. What is important is that hopefully, we can let them know this was never ok.

This may all sound a bit grandiose, but if you look around, we're fighting battles for equality and humanity all over the world. And one way to silence these voices is to silence BTS. ARMY, we've done it until now and we'll continue to stand with them and fight for each others' dreams.

Write to MTv. Maybe it's a short, appropriate tweet on twitter, a letter to them, or an email, let's voice this. Let them know our disagreement with what they're perpetuating. This is not okay in one country, or one awards show. Meanwhile, we're watching for other ways to speak out against acknowledging these awards in any way. A surefire bet to "help them change their minds" is voting overwhelmingly for BTS's nominations in all categories (as always). But PLEASE don't watch the actual show. Those ratings are what they actually want, so even pass it along to your friends how they could help. Let's not let this happen on our watch, Army!

Let us know if there any other good options you've seen, please. And we'll definitely pass it along.
