BTS (11/16)

BTS is a Korean Pop band name and it stands for Bangtan Sonyeondan in Korean and Burn the Stage/Beyond the Scene in English. Thus far, this band has taught me a lot about the humility, perseverance, and uniqueness that come into play for a band, or any artist, to "make it big". In one of BTS episodes I watched, the men were talking of their passions and aspirations with the group and it completely caught me off guard. I did not expect one of them to say something along the lines of "sometimes, I am just laying on my bed doing nothing and people expect me to always be working..." for I too expected them all to be ALWAYS working as our sources often portray. It is interesting how I am a huge advocate of not believing everything the media portrays to us, yet I believed that their portrayal of artists is true. Watching this episode of Burn the Stage/ Beyond the scene made me feel an understanding of "the process" artists go through all-while making me feel more wary of what I do believe in and to stay true to my own word. Overall, this episode really showed me how we all are humans so as long we keep "doing us" everything is solid. The men of BTS have showed me that even though we are different culturally, we are, at heart, very similar in regards to work ethic, passions, and other things.
