I can’t believe it’s here. I really did win. My Jimin. Or as the pc says, 짜만 💜

fan art event pc prize, with my pencil drawing that I entered in the background. I might frame them together 🥺💜
Amerie Jo Garza, 10 years old, was one of us. She was BTS ARMY. She was shot & killed trying to call 911 to save her classmates. This little girl is my new hero, and I’ll be lighting a candle for her, her classmates, and her teachers tonight.
I just.. I just spoke to Jimin’s dad. I carefully asked him if he’s Jimin’s dad, and he immediately smiled and shook my hand. I then told him I’m an artist and wanted to give him a gift, so I gave him my drawing which has now been added to the big table 🥺💜
Today I went to the restaurant BTS used to visit as trainees. The ahjumma who owns it was there, when she walked by my table I gave her a set of my drawing photocards. She sat down with me & looked at them all, aww-ing and thanking me profusely. We talked for a bit, and then
I’m on a date and this guy just told me that he went to a museum and “Namjoon from BTS recommended it as well”. I.. what.. is he.. is this.. am I dreaming?
They’re painting a new BTS mural in the Gamcheon Culture Village in Busan! It’s just opposite where the existing Jimin & Jungkook mural is. This is the best I could do, the painters’ car is parked in front of it 🥺💜
she asked for my bias. Insisted that I tell her. When I did, she immediately got up & walked away. She came back a few mins later with a poster & cupsleeve of Taehyung, as a gift in return 😭
I’m at the Art Party for the Korean Art Fair in London at the Mall Galleries. The very first piece I see as I walk into the gallery.. is Jimin by Lee K 🙌💜
I'm using the time until they're all back to increase my Korean language skills. That first OT7 live when they're all back? I want to understand most of it without needing translations. That's my goal. Let's do this. Who's joining me?
He also signed some t-shirts for other people, and called me over to help keep them stretched as he was signing them. I think I adore this man. I see why Jimin is such an incredible human, he takes after his dad 💜
He came over to watch me draw a bit, saying it’s great - going like “Oooh Namjoon!” (as I’m drawing Namjoon now). I then told him about my exhibition and he asked if he could keep the card, and was so excited with the little pack of photocards (especially Jimin’s). I’m so happy!!
Went to Seoul Forest today, and the new j-hope bench. Not only is there the big “j” bench itself, there’s a box right next to it with the lyrics to Equal Sign. The back of the box can be opened; currently it has some cute squirrels to use as props & freebies left by ARMY!
[Naver
Hey ARMY! If you’re in Seoul (or soon to be), I have left about 200 photocards of my drawings in the box at the j-hope bench in Seoul Forest! They’re free to take. Please be reasonable and just take 1 or 2, thank you 💜

Every time someone asks "Aren't you too old for this?", I just laugh. I can't wait for them to start getting older and realise that you don't change much on the inside - besides caring less about what others think of you. I actually prefer being in my 30s, way more fun being a

Just one other thing: we went for dinner - Korean food - and while we were talking they played Jimin’s Who, Tae’s Fri(end)s, JK’s Standing Next To You, and so much more
I felt like I was getting six million positive signs at once..
I met someone today and I showed her my drawings, she went "Oh wow, you get a lot of Asian people paying you to draw them. These are all beautiful men, how do they find you?"
I couldn't correct her, so I hereby would like to announce I am Bangtan's personal portraitist. Thanks.

Hey if anyone is suddenly looking to get rid of a mute Boston bag because their delulu minds are only now realising they won’t marry him; I’m still looking for one. He’ll always be my ult because relationship status is irrelevant to his art & voice. So let me know, yeah? Thanks
I know I don’t speak for everyone, so I spoke about BTS from the heart instead. 💜
Here’s a radio snippet from BBC World News about half an hour ago. I want to commend them for just allowing our ARMY voices to be heard, with no amendments or judgement. Text in image.
I don’t want to say too much because I haven’t asked him if he’s okay with anything about our date being publicised and I respect his privacy - but I can genuinely say this is one of the best evenings I’ve had in years. No awkwardness, just instant connection & so much to talk
I might cry, why is everyone so nice to me? I wanted my Bulletproof drawing turned into a wood carving & ordered medium (the small one). The shop owner was so excited, he made & gave me the bigger one for free 😭💜
And then he asked where & until when my exhibition is in Seoul,
You know what I do when I don’t like another group’s music? I don’t listen to them and don’t engage with their content.
All these damn hate boners I keep seeing on my timeline are really ruining the vibe. Most of you would be the first to declare war if someone did it to BTS,
And what if I fling it? Then I fling it 🤷🏼♀️
Big thank you to Kim Seokjin for giving me the confidence I needed to now always try to flip my pancakes 🥺💜
what do you mean these are the unedited (!!!!!!!) photos from today, I get to choose ten to make EVEN BETTER?! 😭💜
I’m crying, I’ve never had photos like these of myself before
Wouldn’t it be funny if we make the very official BTS 7 Fates Chakho comic books get the number 1 spot instead..
Just sayin’. Already have the first, but pre-ordered the 2nd & 3rd today 👀
I see people misunderstanding something here, as happens every few months:

As a lot of people replied saying you all want to improve your Korean language skills before the first OT7 live when they’re back.. let’s do Sunday check-ins? Every Sunday, I’ll ask what people have done this week to learn Korean (and share my own!).
So! What did you do this
BTS' official comics 7 FATES CHAKHO are now numer 3 & 5 on the Amazon Hot New Releases for Anime & Manga (e.g. a category that matters)! This is for volumes 2 & 3, as 1 is no longer a new release.
For a fandom that preaches kindness, some of you are awfully quick to unkindly judge others. Making fun of people who have a legitimate military exemption due to a serious injury is really not appropriate.
I beg of you - watch this with sound on. I struggled to not start giggling in this shop. Yes, that is the shop music!
EVERYTHING is cats. Everything. It’s so Yoongi coded, that I wasn’t even surprised when I looked up & saw a picture of Yoongi with one of the items for sale.
@monoagustdworld
She is so sweet and clearly so proud of the boys. When I handed them to her and she saw Namjoon she immediately softened and said “Ahhh.. Namjoon-ah..” 😭💜
See what I’ve circled in this Instagram story of Polyc’ studio? That’s my portrait drawing of him. I’m so grateful he liked it enough to display it on his wall 🙌
Note that palace entry is free in Seoul if you’re wearing Hanbok, so they actively encourage foreigners to try wearing Hanbok to enhance their palace visits. It’s not “embarrassing and cringe” or “trying hard to look Asian”. Several hundred people do it daily. Don’t let comments
Let’s do.. a giveaway. Two sets of photocards; Samsung & my pencil drawings! One winner gets both.

I’m not one to gatekeep, so I want to share the apartment I stayed in while I was in Seoul last month. I booked this place, Rocket Studio, for the whole month as I wanted something that would feel like a home. It’s in Yeonnam-dong (north end of Hongdae, in Mapo-gu), surrounded by

People leaving the fandom, I don't get it. What were you here for, exactly? Their actual current presence only? Out of sight, out of mind? That makes no sense. There's a literal decade (and more, actually) worth of content.. music, videos, photos, appearances, books. By the time

🐿️ 🐱 SOPE BIRTHDAY ART GIVEAWAY 🐱 🐿️

Funny story.. they told me at the Line Friends store I was getting a 20% discount because of the “birthday event”. Initially my dumbass brain went “How do they know it’s my birthday this Saturday..” and then I realised it’s because of Hobi’s birthday, not mine 😂
Work in progress - drawing Indigo Namjoon
I do realise my life is a bit insane, because two months ago I was working on this drawing at Magnate in Busan. With Jimin’s dad walking by a few times to check on progress & chat (after I finished & gave him a portrait of Jimin)
Ah, here is the stunning, embroidered modern hanbok skirt I bought! The owner made the bag for me for free, and also gave me the two patches to sew on the bag myself! It came with one norigae, but she gave me two 🥺❤️

I named my new earbuds 'Rock Bison', but I'm in the office and went to pair them to my laptop for a meeting. Except a coworker apparently was just pairing a device as well and loudly said "What the hell is a Rock Bison" 😭😭😭
I chose my photo entry for the

I don’t have many pictures of myself that I like, I’m usually the one behind the camera. Except for the photoshoot I did at Gyeongbokgung last year. It was an easy choice 🥺
People complaining in the comments on YT, that the show is in Korean.. What the fuck did you expect? That he'd be doing a gig in English, in Seoul? If it bugs you that much that you have to wait for subtitles to be added later, I've got a solution for you: learn Korean.
One of the radiologists yesterday saw my leg tattoos and questioned how I'd feel about them when I'm 80 & my skin is sagging. I said they'd make me smile, reminding me of the amazing experiences in my life. The skin will sag anyway, but at least mine will have stories to tell.

Cafe Hyuga - what used to be BTS’ third dorm. Where do I even start?
I wanted a quieter day, so I decided to walk to Cafe Hyuga & spend some time drawing. I knew I wanted it to be Namjoon, it felt right to draw the leader while sitting in a space they used to live in. I had
Btw, I’ve discovered a fate worse than a screaming child on an airplane for 14 hours. It’s sitting in the same row as a solo for 14 hours. Every single comment about a different member she replied to with a “but my bias is better” comment 💀
I’m so glad there was a non-ARMY in
I’m no longer going to engage with any negativity. Not even to call out that it’s there, because that’s still spending energy on negativity. I am trying to enjoy my time in South Korea, and refuse to let it be spoiled by people who don’t even know me. Thank you to everyone who’ve
I DID IT YAAAAS. We were super rushed and staff definitely tried moving us away but I said “I have a new meme for you”. And Tablo literally said “DAMN” and I slightly aggressively went “DO YOU WANT IT”. To which he grabbed it and said “YES SURE”. 😂😂
Mithra Jin laughed and
WHY DIDN’T ANYONE STOP ME??!!
.. it’s drying & processing so I don’t know how it’ll look in 24 hours, but Type 1 Tae looks very pretty as a fresh cyanotype right now 😭
I’m currently in my Airbnb packing my suitcases, loudly playing BTS, drinking soju, and crying a little bit. That’s totally normal behaviour when you have to go home after a month of amazing experiences, right?
Okay, now that I’ve been spending hours drawing the most detailed part.. I have an estimate. I think he’ll be done by Friday. Saturday at the latest. 💜✏️
