"Whenever it rains, I'll remember the times I sang in the rain"
And I will remember watching my first BTS live concert, the second PTD in Seoul (12/03/2022) projected to a London cinema.
Even though that concert was cut short, I knew when I saw them bopping on stage in the pouring rain that these guys were different, these guys will always do everything they can to put on the best show for their fans and for themselves.
I'm in it for the long haul now. See you in 2025 and maybe then I will actually get to be in the arena with you!
This clip has been on my mind today. Not for any reason related to Jikook or BTS but just because over the last couple of days life has happened and it has made me think.
I love this moment and all that it showed us, a bolder Jungkook pulling Jimin in when he playfully walks towards him and starts to get up close and stare into those doe eyes. Resulting in a slightly surprised but happy Jimin.
This was one of the first times I had seen, with my own eyes and in real time, Jimin and Jungkook just be happy and in love ( those smiles don't lie, if you don't think they are in love that's fine but I do), and it made me smile from ear to ear and get a warm feeling inside.
I had obviously seen moments from before I was a fan and supporter but to see it as it happened was so different. Yes there had been other things that had happened since I became a fan but, for me, this one was special, it was different, they were different, Jungkook was different. That dynamic change was on show and whatever was the catalyst for it had made for two very happy people.
They cannot help but gravitate towards each other. I love how they are just in their own world and the others are letting them get on with it.
Jimin looks at Jungkook with such affection and pride when he is talking.
Finding love like they have is special, it is nurturing, supportive, protective, passionate, playful, damn hard work and a joy to witness. ☺️
I'm still fascinated by the use of paper clappers during the Seoul PTD concerts. That production team thought up this way to give the audience a means of communication, and that the audience was ready to play along. The clappers just folded cardboard that fanned out and collapsed noisily on impact (vlive video cut source)
BTS trying to follow one of the clapper fan chants is kind of funny, but the audience did it. No dancing or cheering or clapping or singing, just bobbing army bombs and thwack thwack thwack.
