With much excitement, BTS's RM on May 10th, 2024 released his single "Come back to me" and has garnered over 12 million views on YouTube! Here is Dojeon team member, Lewis's, honest review on this highly-anticipated comeback! RM (Rap Monster) had great success as a member of the K-pop band BTS, and his solo single "Come back to me" really made me feel emotional. There was no particular part of the song that made me emotional, but it just pulled on my heartstrings. Let me tell you why! Let's check out the M/V first! I also think that the more toned down, and chilled-out vibe that this single projected was a clever idea, to remove the glamourous stages and dance routines and simply show him as an artist individually so that his fans could get to know him on a more personal level. I can't even pinpoint the parts of it that do so, but it just tugs at the heartstrings. I felt like I was on the verge of crying the whole time, and it broke me at 3:37 when Namjoon started smiling just as the drums came in. It just feels like this whole project is so, so important for him. What a masterpiece in storytelling too! Joon did so well in every scene and I couldn't take my eyes off him, because it showed the difference in their careers and their journey from when they first started to where they are today! The video made me think about how fast life moves, one moment you are young hanging out with your friends, and then the next you are working, married, or have kids. I think that his video really highlights the importance of enjoying life. The acting was also very good and told his story. RM's second solo album "Right place, wrong person" will be released on May 24th, 2024 at 1 pm KST/ 0 am EST. Let us know in the comments below your thoughts on his single! #ComeBackToMe #RM #ComeBackToMeByRM #RightPlaceWrongPerson

The three letters "BTS" are known globally, and for good reason. Their success as an award winning K-pop group, which some argue put Korea on the international map are at it again, but this time as solo artists! BTS's V will feature in a unique photobook exhibition, his inner self! Read on for more details! Now with the boys exploring solo careers, and with the highly anticipated upcoming release of Kim Taehyung's (V of BTS) "TYPE 1" photo book, HYBE has announced the "ARTSPACE: TYPE 1" global exhibition. With this news, fans have started to get hyped, and of course they are right to do so. For me, art is not high on my interest list, but once a BTS member is mentioned alongside, my ears start to open up a little. This special exhibition will be filled with Taehyung's distinctive style and will showcase moments of relaxation, which form the main theme of his "TYPE 1" photobook to aid the release of his new solo album. Type 1 concept teaser: This special exhibition will feature a variety of zones, alongside experience areas, where fans will be able to see the BTS star as some of his more vulnerable and relaxed moments, which have not been seen before. I think for me, this would allow me to feel closer to the star, behind the stage lights, make up and production. The design of these spaces reflects the flow of the photobook’s chapters, allowing visitors to experience the atmosphere in person. Check out the poster below for a full list of exhibition dates: The exhibition will take place in various cities and venues worldwide from July to August. I will actually be heading to the Taiwan exhibition this July! Let us know in the comments below if you plan to attend this special exhibition this summer! #BTSV #KimTaehyung #TYPE1

BTS is world famous. Who doesn't know BTS? News has spread about them everywhere, they have even appeared in soap operas! Here are some of the clips of BTS' appearance in these programs.. and how TV talked about them! BTS (Pinterest) BTS' RM was mentioned during YTN's Science and Art program, where it was discussed that his powerful influence has led to an amazing multiplication of visitors to the Busan Museum of Art. “Here is an interesting story about this museum, in 2019 before the art market boomed, RM from BTS visited the Busan Museum of Art and left a message in the guest/visitor brochure and it became very popular. He wrote, “Have a great time sir! I loved the "Wind" series. The number of museum visitors is said to have quadrupled since then. Also, GTN reported that RM attracted attention after visiting and staying at the Jikjisa Temple, as a visit like this is one of the summer events held at 143 temples in Korea.

If you speak to any Korean from the younger generation, they will most likely ask for your MBTI. This is the modern way to categorize your personality into one of the 16 groups. Let's find out why this has become a phenomenon! Before we dive into this article, let's take a look at different MBTI types on the chart: Have you ever heard someone describe themselves as an INTJ or an ESTP and wondered what those cryptic-sounding letters could mean? What these people are referring to is their personality type based on the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI). Based on the answers to the questions on the inventory, people are identified as having one of 16 personality types. The goal of the MBTI is to allow respondents to further explore and understand their personalities including their likes, dislikes, strengths, weaknesses, possible career preferences, and compatibility with other people. No one personality type is "best" or "better" than another. It isn't a tool designed to look for dysfunction or abnormality. Instead, its goal is simply to help you learn more about yourself. The questionnaire itself is made up of four different scales, so at the end of this article I have included one link that will take you to the MBTI test, where you can then let us know your MBTI results in the comments. Here's an oldie-but-goodie video of NCT revealing their MBTIs! During my time in Korea and especially over the past year, I have been asked my MBTI type at least once a week. After being hesitant, at first with doing the test, as since I am from the UK, I believe in star signs more. I took the test and discovered that I mainly fall under the INFP category. I was not surprised when I read the traits and characteristics that fall under this category, as they are very true to my behavior. I do, however, think that considering Koreans used to use blood types to determine personality, this chart can be more accurate and, of course, there are more options to choose from, which make it more interesting. Let's take a look at this video to get a better understanding: Why not take the test for yourself? https://www.thepersonalitylab.org/m2?gad_source=5&gclid=EAIaIQobChMItN73zcnnhwMVkGZBAh38lS6HEAAYAiAAEgI60_D_BwE Let us know what your MBTI is in the comments below. #MBTI #kpopidols #myersbriggs #personalitytest
