If BTS is returning to their roots for this album, then rapper JK making an appearance would make sense. Fingers crossed and ๐คก makeup on!
If you aren't keeping up with the Iditarod this year, here is a good reason to: Four mushers are Alaskan Native: Kevin Hansen, Inupiaq; Ryan Redington, Inupiaq; Kaiser, Yupโik; and Jody Potts-Joseph. Another, Jesse Terry, Anishinabe, is Indigenous from Canada. #Uglydogs

Rent free in my brain for all times. JK's dreams coming true live in stream for us all to see. ๐
actually 4) this specific type of fun song/easy choreo combo is one that I suspect we're going to see a LOT of on this tour with them doing plenty of older songs + getting older: it's visually fun and impressive and it's a break from their more intense stuff

Cover of Arirang with BTS in serious faces and dark suits.
I just really like their faces and I really like this album cover. It's not a direct imitation of the famous photo of the 7 Korean men, it's an homage that stands on its own.
Their faces! Older, handsome, more mature, more serious. I'm into it. They've changed, we did too. They came back home ๐
Yup. Same here so I'll probably get the OT7 one in the end.
"What if ARMY from 190 countries around the world gathered in Gwanghwamun at the same time?" On the 21st, the excitement of Seoul's Gwanghwamun Square, which will be dyed purple, will be broadcast live through Netflix to living rooms around the world. Ahead of BTS's historic full-group comeback, Netflix has begun what it calls a "flawless broadcast operation" that allows not even 0.1 seconds of error. It is a project designed so that hundreds of millions of fans can connect simultaneously and enjoy clear video without buffering. According to Netflix on the 15th, the stage "BTS Comeback Live: Arirang," which will take place at Gwanghwamun Square in Seoul at 8 PM on the 21st, will be broadcast live on the Netflix service. Netflix has completed the construction of a live-stream-specific infrastructure to deliver this content stably in real time to more than 190 countries worldwide.
Netflix's most powerful weapon is its proprietary content delivery network called "Open Connect." Normally, internet data travels a long route through servers in the United States. However, Netflix installs its own cache servers (temporary data storage) in the servers of internet service providers around the world. This works like picking up an item already stocked at a neighborhood convenience store, instead of waiting for a product shipped from overseas. Because data is delivered immediately from the server closest to the viewer, screen freezing and delay are drastically reduced and picture quality becomes more stable. For Netflix, this provides uninterrupted high-definition video, while telecommunications companies benefit from greatly reduced overseas network usage costs.
Live video watched simultaneously by tens of millions of people creates enormous data loads. To solve this, Netflix applies video encoding technology that compresses the original footage in real time. Even with the same 4K high-definition video, this process reduces the data size to about one-tenth. Especially for live broadcasts where every second matters, sophisticated algorithms are deployed to maximize transmission speed while minimizing quality loss. Traffic-management technology is also crucial when large numbers of viewers connect at once. Load balancing technology distributes connection requests across multiple servers so that they do not concentrate on a single server. Just as more than 100,000 people rushed to apply for BTS concert tickets, massive numbers of viewers could flood the livestream simultaneously. This system manages the traffic in real time so that no server becomes overloaded.
Netflix also has a multi-encoder automatic switching system in case broadcasting equipment fails. Even if broadcasting equipment suddenly stops, backup equipment connects immediately, so quickly that viewers cannot notice any interruption. To ensure uninterrupted service, Netflix tests its system using simulations harsher than real-world conditions. They even conduct extreme training where operating servers are randomly forced to shut down, ensuring the system automatically finds alternate routes or activates backup servers. The goal is to create a viewing environment where even if technical problems occur, viewers never notice. A Netflix official said: "This BTS comeback live event will be a historic moment where viewers around the world share the same emotion in real time. We are concentrating all technological capabilities on creating a stable global streaming environment even in unexpected situations."

Netflix Launches โFlawless Broadcast Operationโ for BTS Comeback
to be so loved by kim namjoon -
army, we did well in our past lives to have this.
I love it, yes. Being able to play my computer games on the couch is awesome. But!! I utterly failed to get it to connect to my TV so that was upsetting since I was really hoping to play on that monster screen. So keep that in mind if you do save for it.
Yup yup! I have a whole trip? That is happening? My budget needs breaks?
Sameeee... I just bought the Steamdeck. I really can't justify the Switch 2 for one game ... And yet!
I feel the anger rising deep in your soul. I see the words you have carved on your bones and hear your keening song of pain and wonder. I watch you dance to the rhythms of your ancestors - willing compassion and kindness into a broken world. You are a treasure and I love you so fucking much.

In Korean mythology, the Big Dipper is known as Bukdu Chilseong (๋ถ๋์น ์ฑ, "Seven Stars of the Northern Sky") and holds a central place in traditional cosmology as a powerful deity controlling human fate, longevity, fortune, and disasters. (From KBS world)
a bangtan comeback is like smudges of indistinct colors and mediums slowly being added to one another, swirling together, then having them suddenly and all at once coalesce and snap into focus to reveal fine art worthy of any gallery and so beautiful it takes your breath away
Hurrah!!! That's such good news!
๐คทโโ๏ธ Seven stars? And they do a lot of galaxy related stuff.
It is just a theory though so maybe nothing.
@/BtsBorahoe7 "Upon entering the pop-up, visitors are greeted by a large sculpture visualizing the album title 'Arirang' and the Big Dipper engraved on the floor" SHUT THE FUCK UP THE BIG DIPPER AKA THE CONSTELLATION ALA THE PLACEMENT OF THEIR TATTOOS ON THEIR BODY IM GONNA KILL MYSELF 7:19 13 Mar 26
Tweet shows a outline of a human figure with the sevens 7 tattoos from BTS next to a diagram of the Big Dipper. The two diagrams match pretty closely. Text reads @/parqueer SO THE BIG DIPPER THEORY OF THEIR TATTOO PLACEMENT WAS ALSO TRUE!?
So my ARMY friend on twt just shared these two posts with me and now I'm crying into my coffee again. #BTS
