SENTIMENTS: BTS PERMISSION TO DANCE LIVE IN L A (Nov-Dec 2021)

This episode was recorded on December 29, 2021. So yes, it's another episode from the vault. I wanted to share my thoughts and impressions about BTS having the opportunity to perform 4 live in-person concerts in L A at the end of November and beginning of December 2021. I had planned to purchase a ticket, but circumstances did not allow me to fulfill that goal. It was Jin's birthday right at that time, and Squid Game was popular enough to inspire Taehyung to dress in a Squid Game costume!

해피 뉴 이어 As Kim Seokjin of BTS greeted ARMYs this morning in Twitter. (So adorable, that Worldwide Handsome Jin!) It's Lunar New Year, and I want to wish everyone 새해 복 많이 받으세요. Okay so even if that is not absolutely the correct way to say and spell Happy New Year in Korean, I tried. In this episode I discuss how BTS members are excellent examples of health and overall well-being. I draw on their healthy habits to influence myself in my own decisions about meals, vitamins, and etc. #BTSpodcast #BeginTheSearch #BTS #BTS_ARMY #BeginTheSearch_a_BTSinspiredPodcast

It's okay to love more than one artist/group. I promise. (But it's all up to personal preference.) BTS will release an English track and it's perfectly timed! Our world needs to hear it right now. Thank you for the song, BTS! I'm really grateful and touched. ARMY won't ever leave you. 💜
