The Best -

BTS: The seven-member K-pop boy band, full name Bangtan Sonyeondan, blew up social media during the course of the evening, their voracious fandom inundating feeds with support for the group. In their first appearance at a U.S. awards show, they handily took home the prize for Top Social Artist, and made quite a few new fans in the process (Halsey included). If this is any indication, BTS is poised to become one of K-pop's first real stateside crossover successes.

this post is so pretty and well organised, thank you op! 💕 i could never.

i still haven't gone threw everything. part because i've been busy but mostly because all of it is still overwhelming to me and i need to do it bit by bit (or just do it all tonight and be all over the place with my emoitons, get it over with haha). i'm just so unbelievably happy. like, it went the best way it could go and more. definitely exceeded all my expectations, i'm so happy for my boys!!!

beautiful post op

i was re-watching a lot of these vids yesterday when i needed to have a break from all the upsetting news with ariana's concert. there's some in here that i havent seen yet, though.

sway's mom emailing him is toooo cute

can some one at bighit please tell jimin to stop posing with his face/jaw pushed out and trying to smize??! this is a controversial opinion cause i know most fans think he looks better than ever recently, but it makes him look so weird and uncomfortable imo.

Date: 2017-05-23 03:11 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] kristinl356.livejournal.com
is that what's happening with jimin? he looks murderous. though i've been kind of living for all the jimin hates white people memes.

Date: 2017-05-23 03:35 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] ironicmustache.livejournal.com
yeah, if you start going through pics you'll notice he's always standing with his shoulders pushed back, his face angled down, and his face/jaw pushed out really far forward. then with the smizing he gets caught in half-blinks a lot lmao. never since i noticed it it makes him stick out like a sore thumb in group pics. he should take notes from v, who pulls off the model look/confidence well without looking so much like an angry zoolander extra.
i think he also just seems really tired lately (understandably).

i love the conflicting 'jimin hates america' vs 'j-hope LOVES america' memes.

He's been looking really uncomfortable in interviews lately. Like he either looks like he zoned out or kinda sad...don't know what going on with him.

From: [identity profile] black-swan87.livejournal.com
I have nothing to base it on. He's just been so quiet and withdrawn lately that something major had to have happened in his personal life and ending a relationship/getting dumped seems the most likely option

As a loyal (arguably) Jimin stan, I can say I don't like that look he's trying to pull either. I like him when he's natural, he had a photo with someone at the BBMAs where he looked really good smiling and everything. So whoever told him to pose like that...bye

it's so funny / frustrating how it's obvious what pics come from jungkook's fansite that was there cause suddenly they're all blindingly white.

What a great post OP

they just....I feel so proud of them AGAIN. I keep saying it but they really handled themselves well and had fun. I was watching a fancam of when they were announcing who was going to win and I think it was JK who had his fingers crossed lol. The looks on their faces when they won were nothing but gratitude and it still shows me how humble they are. I get emotional that Namjoon always starts his speeches off with saying Army.

I hope they had too much fun at any after parties

This is random but the guy who presented the award is a vlogger whose videos I watch occasionally and I was surprised to see him on stage but that also meant that BTS was gonna appear in his vlog the day after the awards and there was some cute interactions (which ofc the army found right away).

I applaud OP's formatting and organization skills, nice post.

But srsly congrats to BTS! Say what you will about them but they've really worked hard and come a long way from where they started (I don't really follow them that closely but I do know that much). I wonder how much more publicity and fans they'll get from this.

Oh and props to Rapmon(?) for basically hard carrying the all the interviews and speaking in english lol, I guess the others weren't as comfortable with speaking it?

I can't say this enough, I'm so proud of them.
They got so much coverage, some I didn't think they would, and exposure. I hope they had a great time and were able to meet lots of people.
lol I love how even though some didn't know English they would still chime in given the chance. Taehyung and Hoseok were so extra at times xD never change boys.

OP deserves an award for this post too!

Damn seeing all those celebs and fellow artists and especially their bighit/industry family tweet their support is just really, really heartwarming. You can tell that a lot of their industry peers are fans of them as well :') I know this may be written off as a fan given win (though I think they took into account sales etc too?) but the fact that it opened them up to SO many new people who will hopefully give their music a chance just makes me SO SO happy.

Taehyung is a big fan of Ed Sheeran who couldn't attend the BBMAs because he was on tour so they broadcasted a live performance he was having in another country at the same time. Diplo posted a video on his Snapchat about it and the fans screen-capped it at the perfect moment.

That buzzfeed article about Asian representation is my fave ugh (even tho it's buzzfeed lol) like I'm still a bit angry that someone whose music I kind of like called them "Chinese". I'm so so glad most of the coverage is about them as artists rather then trying to compare them to another boy band or relate them to psy.
