"Why do you like BTS?"
Now I wonder why.
Why do I even like KPOP in the very first place?
Most people will say that it's because of their look.
Should I be honest here?
Then honestly, it could be one.
You can not deny that look is one of the important issues in an entertainment industry.
Wherever it is.
If it's not the look, then it could be the appearance.
People in general love to see beautiful things, right? Let's just agree on it.
But I do think that it is not part of the main reasons why I like KPOP.
I can name a lot of Korean artists who are not that good looking but highly talented (this is just my standard-unreliable-judgemental-statement)
I can also name a lot of Korean artists who are good looking and talented at the same time! Hahaha (again, this is purely my judgement, so..hmm)
But beauty is just for the pleasant of your eyes, not your heart.
I love Korean series.
Most of the time, the reason is because of the story plot, and the way the writer and the actor/actress bring out the characters.
And the OST, and the fashion, and all the things related to the making of the film.
And the most important one, how it can make my heart warm after watching it.
Well, it depends on preference for sure.
When I say it's romantic (for example), maybe other will say it's too much or too cheesy.
Or unrealistic?
But that's how you differentiate drama and real life.
Because it's unrealistic.
That's the threshold of being a fan and being a normal people living on the planet.
Oke let's get back to the question:
"Why do you like BTS?"
Well, I don't usually think about why I like or dislike certain thing.
So for me, this is kind of a difficult question.
Most of the time, I use my heart instead of my brain.
And hearts do not think.
They feel.
But they do have memories.
(Oke, I know that this is not related, hmm..)
I am an INFJ
at least most of the time the result gave me this answer. Sometimes I got ENFJ or ENFP. I don't mind.
But the fact that 'NF' are my traits, I do agree.
I use intuition and feeling in almost all cases that sometimes it drives me crazy.
Even the first time I meet people, or whether I should do this or that.
Intuition and feeling are dominant.
Oke, I think this is a bit out of the topic.
(And why do we even talk about this, heu. Mianhae)
I just want to let you know that this is a real difficult question for me.
However, I already put some thoughts into this since the first time someone asked me.
This is so strange, why do I feel like it's an obligation to answer question from an unknown
But that question successfully growing an urgent feeling inside me to really think about it.
Oke, sorry, now I already talked too much.
So why do I like BTS?
First, their music. Definitely.
I didn't quite know about BTS music until earlier this year, to be honest.
I am (or I =was? haha) a fan of EXO actually.
I heard 'Dope' before and saw the music video when I was home.
(because my sister was already a fan of BTS since last year, or before? not sure)
I liked it, the dance was impressive, but I did nothing to know more about their music, at that time.
And then, they released a new album.
Because the new album of EXO was not that good and I was kind of in a state of 'need something to make me happy',
so I start listening to other music from other artists.
I saw the music video of 'Fire' and it was not the type of music I listened to. Too loud, too noisy.
But still, I did agree that the dance was so impressive!
And then, it was played randomly in youtube playlist when I worked on my assignment, and too lazy to change it.
It happened some more times and I also heard their other songs, that were milder than Fire.
Amazingly, the more I hear their music, the more I like it.
And then, when I knew the lyrics and the meanings behind their songs, I definitely became a fan.
To add to my excitement, they took part in making almost all of their songs! Even the idea of their album concept.
And the album concept!
Well, they were not only about music.
There were always something else.
Some other meanings or lessons that you can relate to their life.
They have a unique way in making their album being part of an episode of a story with the member as the characters in it.
But you need to analyse it yourself, so there is some kind of mystery that you can find the clues in every music videos. hahaha
Oke, this is a bit difficult to explain
Their hard works and determinations!
Oke, I know everyone work hard for their dreams.
It just that I am kind of moved due to the fact that they are not from the Big 3 label (SM, WG, JYP).
It will be too long to explain this Big 3 things related to korean entertainment industry
And their label! The Big Hit Entertainment!
And Bang Si Hyuk PD-nim! Even all other staffs that involved in making the music.
They showed us that making music is not only about business but about being a family.
a family full of talented people, on top of that
There are also other things, such as the unique characteristics of each member, their bond!, how they treat their fans, and a lot of other things that I will not elaborate more in here.
This is already a reaaally long post. Haha
So sorry that I took much of your precious time reading it.
Post ga penting dan membosankan yak. heu
Mianhae..
Mungkin juga semua alasan-alasan ini sebenernya ga cuma ada di BTS doang
Mungkin banyak artis lain juga punya hal yang sama
Tapi ya untuk saat ini aku taunya BTS doang
And already too much feelings involved
Tapi ku juga dengerin lagu-lagu lain kok, kalo bagus ya ku suka
Cuma ya ga sampe ngikutin
Kan agak susah juga untuk keep up semua artis
(ntar bukannya jadi Master in Env. Sciences malah jadi Master in Korean Entertainment. Hehe)
Hidup itu kan tentang pilihan.
Kata orang ku bermental anak SMP cuma gara-gara nge-fans sama BTS. Hiks
Well, I don't really mind as long as it makes me happy, hmm.
Anyway..
Till we meet again. Annyeong!
XOXO
