Kim Taehyung is the Most Handsome in the World

Image
The first time I saw V or Kim Taehyung, his real name, my first impression is on how beautiful and confident he was especially when he was strutting the magenta carpet of Billboard Music Awards. He was tanned but still very attractive. What I also realized was on the perfect symmetry of his face. Thankfully, not only I also noticed that but many in the ARMY fandom who considered Tae to have a very proportional face. Now my first bias in BTS gained more worldwide recognition when he was placed as the #1 Most Handsome Faces in the World in 2017 list by TC Candler. And I was ecstatic to find out 2 days before his birthday on December 30. So basically, the list posted on YouTube was published on December 28, 2017. I would consider it one of the early birthday gifts for the popular member of BTS. I have been gushing on his looks and how ethereal he really is.

BTS fans have been the sweetest of all the Kpop fandoms these recent days. And it's all because of Jimin, more specifically for Jimin's birthday on Friday, the 13th. Fans have really made the day special for Jimin by gifting him in various ways including a "Jimin" bus and Billboard ads dedicated for the well-loved BTS member. Check the video for a compilation of photos of birthday gifts and projects for Jimin.

To celebrate the birthday BTS Kim Namjoon a.k.a. Rap Monster, ARMY fandom in the Philippines helps the less privileged children in one of the impoverished areas of the country. PH 🇵🇭 #BTSARMY organized #OneLoveNamjoonProject , for which donations where collected to help less privileged children in the community 💜👦👧 https://t.co/Vdupep2X1G — worldwideBTS 🌎 (@btsanalytics) September 10, 2017 Over 70 children were fed with spaghetti and bread through the generous effort of ARMY's through a solidarity project called #OneLoveNamjoonProject. Although the project was conducted during a weekend in the Philippines, many international ARMY's recognized the efforts of the Filipino ARMY's through tweets. The project is a testament of the ARMY's dedication in helping not just in spreading the awareness of Kpop superstars and their music but also to show that the fandom is not just about being committed in helping BTS but also to pay forward whatever blessings they

WATCH: BTS released Her Serendipity Comeback Trailer and the Visuals Are So AMAZING!

Image
I woke up midnight PH time, missing the BTS comeback countdown. Though a bit remorseful, I was glad watching the first time Her Serendipity comeback trailer featuring Jimin in solo. I got so addicted to it that I watched it many times while complaining about the freezing view count on YouTube. I also watched other reactions videos from YouTubers and I was like watching over 10 now from different time zones and different races. Really, the world is united because of BTS. Now, here's my take about the BTS Serendipity comeback trailer video which sums up to this; AMAZING! But not only is it amazing, it's full of wonders. Breaking it down, I would like to start it with: Jimin's visual and vocals Literally, the whole video is about Jimin. This angelic being has imparted his talent and visuals to us to gush over. I can see the cute side of him, the serious side and the sexy side all throughout the video.  And then, the vocals... Wow! I know he can hit hig

What the Bangtan Boys (BTS) think about the Philippines

Image
BTS are among the hottest Kpop boy bands in the planet. And the number of fans in the Philippines is also among the highest in the world. To show how popular BTS is in the Philippines, Twitter Philippines has placed the BTS-related hashtag #EpilogueInManila as the 5th most popular hashtag trending in the Philippines for Twitter's 10 years of existence. The hashtag #EpilogueInManila happened in 2016 when BTS held one of the largest concerts at Mall of Asia Arena. To think that the hashtag is more popular during the Papal visit in 2016 proves the potential power of BTS in the Philippines in entertainment stardom. BTS also held the Wings tour in Manila this year at May for two days on May 6-7. Prior to the concert in Mall of Asia, many reported that the Kpop boy group arrived in Manila earlier at May 1 after their concert in Jakarta, days before their MOA Wings concert. The speculation of the early arrival may have something to do with the shooting of BTS Summer Package 20

BTS Jungkook is Trending with #HappyJungkookDay

Image
BTS is Kpop's biggest sensation today. The septet hip-hop group is not only popular in their home country South Korea, but also internationally. It has made big waves in East Asia and the Pacific and it is now also bringing more waves in North America, especially in the United States. Okay, BTS is not only popular in those regions but all over the world. They're even popular in Africa and Europe. One of the factors that have made this group special and successful internationally is one of the members who happens to have his birthday today, September 1. In celebration of Jungkook's day, the Golden Maknae of BTS--maknae as in the youngest-- I have created a video posted on YouTube for his special occasion. You can also check this zodiac signs, which I have incorporated for informational purpose. #HappyJungkookDay!

Pasigarbo sa Pagkatawo in Cebu this December 2017

Image
Cebu City will host the first Pasigarbo sa Pagkatawo this year on December 1-3. This will be a momentous event for the LGBTIQ community in Cebu and in the Visayas as this event potentially brings visibility to the community, something I have dreamed about to happen in Cebu, being a secret member of the community. Cebu may have an active LGBTIQ community but it is not something really felt. Perhaps, it might be because the LGBTQI's are more accepted here. The blogging communities in Cebu are also composed of LGBTIQ persons, myself included. But not all are out and mostly discreet. With the rising HIV cases reported in Cebu, there must be an event or series of events that will bring impetus to young LGBTIQ's who are searching for allies and understanding in the community. Yes, the stigma of being gay, lesbian, transgender is still there but here, I am hoping that this will be greatly reduced and that acceptance is more clearly seen with the presence of those who ca

Thai Series,Together With Me, Showcases Legendary Gay Love Scene

Image
Thai Boys Love series, Together with me, has done what other Asian BL series have failed to do. The directors and producers have probably listened to the concerns of BL audience, whose main sentiment is the lack of passion of M2M romantic couples who are also the leads in the series. When I mean the lack of passion, it means the lack of kissing parts. Some BL series are even devoid of that scene, making the watchers and audience think that they have been fooled.  Lately, watching Boy's Love (BL) series has been a pastime. But when I have come to observe the number of reach and audience of this kind of industry, I even think that there's a good potential for producers to capitalize this industry. The marketing side of me has seen the opportunity that this kind of industry brings in thanks to social media. The fans can go crazy watching 2 boys being intimate with each other. Others dismiss it as something bromantic but then there are many now who are hoping that th

Prior to the highlight reels, BigHit through its official Twitter and Instagram accounts released teaser posters of Love Yourself concept, giving the ARMY's ideas and glimpses of what to expect during the BTS comeback on September. Analytical ARMY's have also imparted their theories about the Love Yourself concept. Are your ready for BTS September comeback?
