Coming in July, “Beyond The Story: 10-Year Record of BTS”
I ordered my copy a few weeks ago, on Amazon. As soon as word got out, I made sure to secure one..
There’s something so poignant about it, though. Watching the trailer just now left me with a lump in my throat. It’s hard to put clearly into words, as I’m not fully cognizant as to why this residual sadness comes with so much BTS related content.
There’s a bittersweetness to all of it, right now. I think partly it’s the residue from last year’s infamous Festa Vlive.... with the unknown we are facing regarding the MS that each of the guys is facing in the VERY near future. I just don’t fully trust HYBE, after what happened last year. That’s my unfiltered truth.
If they would tell us what the enlistment schedule is, it would be really really helpful. We could all prepare ourselves in the best ways possible, and not have to live with the total unknown. Other than Jin saying he had 365 days left yesterday, we know nothing of the other’s MS.
Telling ARMYs when each one is going in would actually be the greatest gift that they could give us. Other ARMYs have said to me, “they don’t know when they are enlisting”, and I call that BS. Of course HYBE knows exactly when each one of them will enlist. It is how they know what content to produce, and how to plan its release over the next two years. This is a VERY well thought out and planned process. This is not a “fly by the seat of your pants” type of process.
BTS = $$$. HYBE must plan for the time that the guys will all be behind the walls of the military. BTS is the Golden Butter on HYBE’s proverbial bread.
I’m looking forward to reading the book, and am super curious as to what was included. It will be a story that is told to appeal to the masses, of all cultural, political, religious beliefs. Sanitized, if you will...
It will be fun to see anyway. We have enough original content from the last 10 years to fill in many of the gaps that might be left in between the words on the pages...
Perhaps some day when the guys are no longer under contractual agreements we will get some autobiographies, that give us a real look into the years they navigated as BTS. Wouldn’t that be cool.... I’ll keep my fingers crossed. 💜
Love them. Miss them as 7.
