It's been a few days since the 63rd annual Grammy Awards and we (along with every other ARMY) were utterly disappointed when BTS did not win the Best Pop Duo/Group Performance, which was then followed by the Grammys using BTS to shamelessly milk views from ARMYs by putting BTS as the second to last performance, making both us and BTS wait for hours just to see them on TV. Along with other aggravating issues, we thought it would be best to use this episode to rant about all the things that went wrong starting from their nomination back in November leading all the way up to their performance on March 14th. This episode was mainly just for our satisfaction, but we hope you can empathize with our feelings as the fandom regroups and figures out where to go from here.
A bit exhausted from talking about the usual Twitter discourse, we thought it would be good to destress by taking one episode to talk about something cute and ended up choosing Bon Voyage, BTS's iconic travel series where they pick a country, fly there, and get into all sorts of hijinks as their camera crew just watches idly. Since each season of Bon Voyage is so jam-packed, we mainly just talked about the first season, but we had loads of fun and ended up sharing some of our own travel stories as well. Come hang out with us!
What exactly is “K-pop” and why is there so much argument about whether or not it’s good or bad? We discuss its origins and why there is growing dislike of using “K-pop” as a genre of music. This is not an argument for whether BTS is or isn’t K-pop, but a dialogue on how we as a society have been classifying musical genres inappropriately.
