You get excited, and before you realize the distance between the public and you has gone?! BTS · V’s shocking activity

In the middle of the young generation, BTS, whose popularity continues to grow, have released their first album. They’ve only been releasing singles up tot his point and along with their radical sound, of course, balad songs have also been incorporated; showing their vast musician skills in this work.

Rather than taking our opinions into account, we’re the happiest when we satisfy the people who are looking over us.

-On November, you held “BTS 2014 LIVE TRILOGY EPISODEⅡ.THE RED BULLET” on both Kobe’s International Conference Center International Hall and Tokyo’s International Forum, it was amazing! How was that?

RAP MONSTER: It was super good!

JIMIN: Yeah, it was really good. The lives were good enough to make ourselves feel satisfied. 

-There also were performances where you could feel strength and coolness, but there were also other when you felt the member’s loveliness and affection for each other. 

JIN: (laughs) I think it made the girls happy, but I wonder how it looked for the boys watching it.

SUGA: Rather than taking our opinions into account, we’re the happiest when we satisfy the people who are looking over us. 

-It was stoic! But on the encore, you had lots of fun right?

SUGA: It was really fun. Since we’re singers, we are the happiest when the stand on the stage.

-V, you went down the stage and went closer to the audience.

V: That was only yesterday (16/Nov; Tokyo) (laughs). I was a little bit excited.

-(laughs) Also on Christmas Eve, the 24th of December you’re releasing your first Japanese album, WAKE UP.

J-HOPE: Yes!

JUNGKOOK: I’m really happy.

SUGA: In Korea, we call them (original full albums in Japan) “regular albums”, but since it’s our first we’re really happy. We’re also very happy to be releasing it on Japan, and I hope our fans can enjoy it with us.

RAP MONSTER: The title “WAKE UP” means that our music is “starts a full-scale” form now on.

-You focus on hip hop, but you’ve also recorded songs with several different styles, so I think that in this album you can feel that BTS has a vast repertory of musical styles.

SUGA: Thank you. Our priority is making contents that will make the fans happy.

V: It’s full of good songs!

‘2014MAMA’ in Hong Kong and behind-the-scenes of concert in Philippines continues to today in Singapore. BTS visited Singapore to hold an exclusive concert! At the day before the concert, they took a short trip to somewhere in spare time. Guess where we are!

Hint 1. Need a ticket.

Hint 2. Go up to the higher place.

[The night in Singapore is beautiful!]

It’s time that the buildings are starting to light up. BTS hit the road to take a ‘Singapore Flyer’. Before the getting on, there are so excited two boys, JIMIN and V!

JIMIN and V “shoot at the sky~ shoot!”

Finally we got on the Singapore Flyer. JUNG KOOK, the ‘natural VJ’ of BTS, volunteered again for a daily VJ. He got on the big wheel with a camera, saying he will take pictures of the scenes and do some role plays. The video he took is ‘unrevealed’ yet, but we can watch it someday if he gave his best shot.

JUNG KOOK “I will do my best with my artistic spirit”

The big wheel, Singapore Flyer started to move. Someone got scared, another was surprised, and another tried to put a bold face, I would not say exactly who each of them is.

SUGA “The reason I closed my eyes is not because I am frightened!” (Cowardly excuse)

V and JIMIN seem very excited all the time. They saw through the window by standing up, sitting down, and leaning on the window.

V “Oh! Are we going up now?”

Older brothers watched outside elegantly but got bored just after three minutes. The big wheel turns very slowly for about 30 minutes, which was too boring time for them.

RAP MONSTER “I will endure because the night view is amazing”

JIN and RAP MONSTER “Is it the fastest speed? Can’t we go any faster?”

Now wait a minute! Can you feel someone is missing? Yes, J-HOPE is not here. He finally gave up riding the big wheel being afraid of heights. So, we took a picture for J-HOPE. The night in Singapore is fantastic!

[The daytime in Singapore is wonderful also!]

The day after the concert was wrapped up successfully, BTS got some spare time before heading to the airport. Let’s go to see the sights~ Singapore Flyer we rode before is over there.

JUNG KOOK and SUGA “We rode that big wheel!”

In front of Merlion, a statue with the body of a fish and the head of a lion, they took various poses for the camera out of the blue.

SUGA and JIMIN “Palm blast!”

JUNG KOOK “I am the master of water”

J-HOPE “The spirit of the water, begin to soar!”

BTS, who successfully completed the concert and got excited with their free time on a fine day, is having great time today.

[Christmas on Summer! I am Santa and you are Rudolph!]

Whoosh! This is BTS’ hotel room. Lots of cute ornaments are ready for Christmas. These are headband from Korea for Christmas on middle of summer.

“Precious props from Korea by plane!”

They plays a game that the man who picks the headband should give the man who picks Santa’s hat a piggyback ride. Rock-paper-scissors!

Only J-HOPE showed rock while others showed papers. Don’t get me wrong, there was no trick at all (waving hand). J-HOPE strongly insisted that there must be a secret deal, but it was useless.

J-HOPE “ Something must be wrong ;(“

V and SUGA wore Rudolph’s headbands after J-HOPE. RAP MONSTER and JIN, the two tallest of the members and the cutest, JIMIN, became Santa to ride on other members’ back.

JIN “Men always show scissors from now on”

Rudolphs “I have no thinking at all. Because I am a Rudolph”

JUNG KOOK got special privilege that allows him to participate in any game.

“Adorable members”

Christmas is less than one week away. Hope you enjoy the great day with people you care about!

“Merry Christmas!”
