25.11.2016
In the morning, Hannah arrives early at Big Hit to meet her coworkers and Yongseok Choi, the director of most of BTS's music videos.
Wonju Lee:
"We will need to talk about three things in total today.
Both storyboards for Spring Day and Not Today...
And the possible album cover."
Everyone nods and prepares their notes. Yongseok talks about the first part.
Yongseok Choi:
"I checked both storyboards, and they look fantastic!
Well done, guys!
Let me show you some changes I've made."
He shares his screen on the wall and explains his ideas to everyone.
>> Nobody is as talented as Yongseok-sshi! <<
Hannah smiles approvingly to herself.
>> It doesn't matter how basic or average an idea is... he always manages to bring out the full potential and turn an ordinary idea into something spectacular. <<
Maybe one day…
I'll be able to see the world as colourful and filled with opportunities as he.
Jihye Yoon:
"I love having Taehyung at the train station as an opening.
That's the perfect way to lead into Spring Day."
Hyunwoo Nam:
"I agree!
Also, letting SUGA introduce the pile of clothes…
<Is it you who changed? Or is it me?
I hate this moment, this time flowing by
We've changed, you know?
Just like everyone, you know?>
Love it!!"
He smiles happily.
Hannah:
"Oh, by the way, Wonju-hyung?
Have you talked to that artist yet?"
Wonju Lee:
"Yes, he replied yesterday and agreed to the terms we sent him.
Sorry, I forgot to tell you about it."
Hannah:
"Don't worry, that's why we are here today.
Damn, Jungkook will be sooooo happy seeing his ideas included."
Yongseok Choi:
"I was impressed by the ideas he came up with.
Pretty good ones.
Maybe one day, we could let him be the director for one of their videos."
He looks at Hannah.
Yongseok Choi:
"You could…"
Hannah:
"Yeah, sometimes I teach him about how we brainstorm ideas and the whole process."
Yongseok Choi:
"Tell me when you think he is ready."
Hannah nods with a smile on her face.
>> He would be so happy.
That's going to be my secret mission from now on. <<
After summing up every detail about the upcoming shooting, they moved on to Not Today.
Hyunwoo Nam:
"These are the locations I've scouted.
What do you think?"
Yongseok Choi:
"Mh…
I like the second location the most.
That empty space will make their dance moves look more impressive."
Hannah:
"Yes, especially with a lot of dancers in the end…
A well deserved epic ending for this powerful song."
Jihye Yoon:
"Are the guys done with the choreography already?"
Hannah:
"Yes, after finishing yesterday's BTS RUN episode, I recorded their practice.
That's what they came up with."
Hannah shares her screen, and they watch BTS' dance practice for Not Today for the first time.
Yongseok Choi:
"We'll need drones for this shooting.
I want shots from many different angles, from close by to afar."
Hannah:
"Picking up on the dynamics of the song by changing the perspective."
While everyone else looks confused at their descriptions, Yongseok smiles and puts up his hand.
Yongseok Choi:
"At least you get me, Hannah."
They high five. Wonju shrugs and shares the notes he has made earlier.
Wonju Lee:
"Also, for some shots, we'll have to organise an SUV to film from the driving car.
I'll take care of that later."
After another 30 minutes Yongseok Choi leaves for another client, and Sihyuk Bang walks in with the BTS members in tow.
Sihyuk Bang:
"Every one of you shared promising ideas for the album design.
As always, thank you for your hard work.
Since I cannot decide between two drafts...
Why don't we publish two different versions this time?"
Jihye Yoon:
"Which one would you suggest?"
Sihyuk Bang:
"The green and pink versions are my favourites.
What do you think?"
He turns to the members.
Hoseok:
"First of all, I want to say…
Every draft looks simply impressive!
You guys are so talented."
He claps his hands, and Namjoon nods.
Namjoon:
"I agree, PD."
Jungkook:
"Next to each other, they create a unique contrast.
I like the green one the most."
Sihyuk Bang:
"In my head, you guys are already sitting there for a photo shooting."
Namjoon:
"Love it!
Who made them, by the way?"
Jihye smiles and points at the pink version.
Jihye Yoon:
"This one is mine."
Taehyung:
"Ooooh!
Right, that's Noona's style!"
Jihye Yoon:
"What do you mean?
Do you know my style?"
Taehyung:
"Of course!"
Hoseok nods in agreement.
Sihyuk Bang:
"And the green draft was made by-"
But Jimin cuts him off.
Jimin:
"Hannah."
Hannah turns her head towards Jimin and frowns.
Hannah:
"Wait a moment...
I made sure no one would see my drafts!"
She crosses her arms and tilts her head.
Jimin:
"I knew it the moment I saw it.
It looks like something Hannah would create."
Yoongi:
"I can already feel the cold by looking at this location."
Hannah:
"Sorry, it's going to be freezing."
Jungkook:
"It's all about the result, so we don't mind."
Sihyuk Bang:
"Okay, so that's done for today.
But before we end this meeting...
I sat down with my consultants and lawyers to write a statement we'll publish tomorrow."
He gets out a stack of paper and hands everyone one piece. Everyone reads it silently.
<We announce today that we will legally deal with bullying BTS members, including the malicious rumours, false facts, and aggressive postings and comments, that are being distributed online, as well as damaging our reputation.
Recently, a court ruling on alleged defamation in promoting information network use and information protection law has imposed a severe sentence on such behaviour. To protect the rights and interests of the artists, the company has made a complaint and accusation procedure with the legal corporation to actively take legal action against acts such as generating malicious posts and comments aiming at artist defamation and disseminating false facts. We will also take all available legal measures without any consent, and we will respond strongly to future defamation of the artist and further damage cases.>
Sihyuk Bang:
"Big Hit will not tolerate this behaviour anymore.
From now on, we will fight for you guys."
Taehyung looks in turmoil.
Taehyung:
"Thank you, PD."
Sihyuk Bang:
"Sorry that it took us so long...
It was long overdue.
We are a family, and we promise to protect you guys as much as we can."
Namjoon:
"We appreciate your constant support.
Thank you, boss."
After ending the meeting, everyone moves to the last location to finish shooting the RUN BTS episodes.
Upon returning to their apartment Seokjin and Hannah cook Sundubu Jjigae, a spicy soft tofu stew. Everyone sits down at the table to eat, but Jungkook is barely having anything.
Namjoon:
"Aren't you hungry, Jungkookie?"
Jungkook:
"Not really."
He shrugs and places one hand on his stomach.
Jungkook:
"Seems like I had too much food late last night."
Seokjin:
"Oh, what did you eat?"
Jungkook:
"Spicy Ramen!
And I made way too much."
He moves his hands in a semicircle to show the size of his dinner.
>> We should consider Kookie as an actor...
He is good!
If I didn't know any better, I would believe him. <<
Namjoon:
"You should have left some for me!"
Jungkook:
"Well…"
He grins.
Namjoon:
"By the way, who wants to drive me to the airport later?"
Jimin:
"Hey, wait!"
Jimin looks over to Jungkook.
Jimin:
"Did you seriously eat last night, Jungkook?
We were both at the gym for such a long time…"
Jungkook:
"I ate afterwards."
Jimin:
"Are you sure?
You should eat properly!"
Hannah looks over to Yoongi, and they grin at each other. Their plan is working already.
Hannah:
"Speaking of food…
What do you guys want to eat tonight?"
Taehyung:
"Katsudon!!!"
Yoongi:
"I don't care.
Any kind of meat sounds good to me."
Seokjin:
"How about Miso Ramen?"
Jungkook:
"Anything but Ramen... I am still full!"
Hannah:
"Can I decide?
Please?"
Hoseok:
"But I wanted to suggest Yakitori!"
Hannah looks over to Taehyung.
Hannah:
"Katsudon!"
Taehyung:
"Yes!!!"
Yoongi:
"As long as we get meat…
Great choice."
Jimin:
"Hannah?"
Hannah:
"Mh?"
Jimin:
"The rice bowl next to you…
Can you give me some more rice?"
Everyone looks surprised, and Hannah smiles affectionately.
Hannah:
"Sure! Here you go."
Today Hannah drives Taehyung and Jimin to the airport.
Taehyung:
"Is it my birthday yet?"
Hannah:
"No, why?"
Taehyung:
"You picked my suggestion for lunch…
And the three of us share a car as I asked for.
I am so happy!"
Jimin:
"Awesome how easy it is to make you happy."
Taehyung:
"I try to enjoy these short, beautiful moments in life.
Try it out for yourself!"
Jimin:
"Too busy for that…"
He shrugs and looks outside the window.
Taehyung:
"Even if you do less, it still will be enough.
Otherwise …
You'll look back at this moment in time one day…"
Hannah:
"... and regret the things you have not done."
Taehyung looks over to Hannah, surprised.
Taehyung:
"Did our friendship evolve at this very moment?"
Hannah:
"It did!
Now we can end …"
Jimin:
"... each other's sentences!"
Hannah laughs at his reply.
Hannah:
"Of course, you're my bestest friend, Mochi."
Jimin:
"I hope so! If I'm not your number one, I'll be disappointed."
Taehyung:
"Jimin, of course, nobody could ever reach you."
Hannah:
"No worries. Your place is secure.
...for now."
She grins, and Taehyung forms the word 'Oh' silently.
Jimin:
"Hey!"
Taehyung:
"Seems like there is a tiny chance…"
Jimin:
"Taehyung!"
Taehyung:
"I'm joking, Hyung!
Anyway, I'll never be as handsome as you, Jimin."
Hannah:
"True.
I have to admit... Jimin looks pretty damn hot."
Jimin's eyes widened after hearing that compliment. He starts coughing.
Taehyung:
"Are you okay?"
Taehyung tries to maintain a serious expression but can't keep it up anymore. He bursts out laughing at Jimin.
Hannah:
"No, seriously!
We all know that the choreography of Blood, Sweat & Tears is seductive on purpose.
But you were my favourite this time, Jimin."
Jimin blushes.
Jimin:
"Noona…"
Hannah:
"I mean, ARMY keep on calling you <the flirt> for a reason.
But you looked so hot!
I was delighted to enjoy you dancing the whole time while we were shooting."
Jimin:
"...thank you."
Taehyung:
"You made him really happy, Noona!"
She shrugs.
Hannah:
"I'm honest here."
Taehyung:
"So, do you think Jimin is the most handsome member?"
Jimin sends a deadly gaze to Taehyung.
Hannah:
"That's always a preference.
Each of you is handsome and adorable in your own way.
But if I should choose the hottest member of BTS, I'll pick him."
They continue to joke around until they reach Incheon International Airport.

Hannah:
"A never-ending ocean of buildings…"
Hannah takes a sip of her cappuccino, overlooking the city from the rooftop where she has breakfast with her coworkers and BTS. Big Hit booked this terrasse exclusively to maintain some privacy during their short stay in Hong Kong.
Yoongi:
"I can see the ocean!"
Hannah turns around and can see a glimpse of blue in the distance.
Namjoon:
"That's not what she meant."
Namjoon tilts his head, and Yoongi sticks out his tongue.
Yoongi:
"I know, I know."
He shrugs and reaches out for the coffee pot in front of him to refill his cup.
Jungkook:
"Hyung?
Can you fill up my cup as well?"
Sejin Bang:
"Did you eat anything yet, Jungkook?
I have the feeling you replaced food with coffee."
Hoseok:
"Oh, wait!
Isn't tonight that tournament you wanted to participate in?
That's why he is drinking so much coffee."
Yoongi:
"If he continues like this, he won't be able to do much today because his body had too much caffeine.
What do we want to do today, by the way?"
Taehyung:
"I've seen a lot about the Hong Kong Heritage Museum online, and I wanted to check it out."
Hannah:
"You want to visit a museum?
Isn't that a first?"
Sejin Bang:
"Oh!!!
I wanted to visit that one, too!
Can I join?"
Jungkook:
"You can't visit a museum without me!
I'll suggest adding the Hong Kong Museum of Art as well."
Taehyung:
"I think we have formed the first group of the day.
Does anyone else want to join?"
Jimin:
"I'll pass…
How about some shopping at the Ladies Market?"
Hoseok:
"Count me in, roommate!"
Seokjin:
"I would rather check out that monastery on Lantau Island."
Namjoon:
"The Po Lin Monastery?"
Sejin Bang:
"Didn't you talk about that one with Hyunwoo earlier, Namjoon?"
Hoseok:
"You three should check it out.
Seems like we already managed to split up."
Hannah:
"I'll join you two to the market if you climb up to The Peak afterwards."
Jimin:
"Anything you want, Noona."
Yoongi:
"I'll pass on the sightseeing today and head back to my room now.
Have fun, guys."
Hannah stands up as well and grabs her coffee.
Hannah:
"You wanted to show me the last version.
Let's do that before I go out."
She turns over to Hosek and Jimin.
Hannah:
"Let's meet in an hour in the lobby."
Hoseok:
"Perfect."
Hannah follows Yoongi to his room.
Hannah:
"You look rather distracted this morning…
Is everything ok?"
Yoongi:
"....mhm..."
>> Something is off for sure... <<
Yoongi opens the door with his key card, and they get inside. Hannah chooses to sit on the couch next to the window. She observes him as he shuffles over to the green chair.
Hannah:
"Talk to me."
He sits down and looks to Hannah. She can't read what's going on inside his mind, but it can't be anything good. Yoongi takes a deep breath and avoids her gaze by staring at the black floor lamp next to her.
Yoongi:
"I read this article this morning…"
>> Seriously!
After seeing progress with Jimin's condition, their excessive media consumption is the next issue I'll deal with.
There are too many people out there who want to hurt them…
But… <<
Hannah:
"Article? Which one?"
He takes out his phone, and Hannah moves to sit next to him. As soon as she finishes reading the article's headline, she skims the article.
Hannah:
"What do they mean by 'SUGA knows BTS will win this year's Daesang'?
That's bullshit!!
You've never said that, and you would never even think about that…"
She sniffs off and shakes her head.
Yoongi:
"I've told them that I would gladly accept any price we might get…"
Hannah:
"That doesn't mean at all what they chose to pick for the headline.
Yoongi…
That's how the media works.
They try to come up with a catchy headline, but most articles reveal what they are genuinely about when you take your time to read it."
Yoongi:
"A lot of people only read the headline, and that's it.
'Oh, how arrogant of him.'
'Does he really think they will get it? Ridiculous!'
They don't care about the truth because they prefer rumours and drama."
He lowers his head and looks down on the floor. Hannah places one hand on his shoulder.
Hannah:
"You won't be able to change what other people think about you.
You know the truth, and I know it.
Let them create their own 'truth' filled with lies."
He bites his lower lip.
Hannah:
"Yes, it hurts seeing your words twisted by this.
Whatever you feel right now, you have the right to do so."
Yoongi:
"We won't get a Daesang anyway...
It's too early, and we didn't work hard enough this year.
The other groups deserve it more than-"
Hannah:
"Everyone who got nominated deserves this award!
So do you, guys!
I know that many people want to see you struggle, stumble, and fall.
But you're stronger than that.
BTS has grown immensely in the last four years.
Why shouldn't you deserve the song, album, or artist of the year?
You've just received one Album of the Year award.
Isn't that proof enough that you guys are valued and recognized?"
For a few minutes, no one says a word.
Hannah:
"You know that I'm right…"
He turns his head and looks straight into her eyes. The corners of his mouth move up in a smile.
Yoongi:
"Thank you, Noona.
Guess… I needed that."
Hannah places her right hand on his.
Hannah:
"I repeat it over and over again.
You're not alone.
I'm always here for you to support you, whatever mood you're in."
Yoongi looks at his phone.
Yoongi:
"Since you got 20 more minutes to kill…"
He opens his laptop and pushes the microphone until it's in front of Hannah.
Yoongi:
"I got this idea for tomorrow's remix, and I need someone to sing this part…"
Hannah:
"... can't you do that yourself?"
Yoongi:
"No, I need a high-pitched voice.
Yours is perfect for what I've planned."
Hannah sighs and brushes a few strands of her red hair from her face. Yoongi starts his arrangement and indicates when it's Hannah's turn to sing.
On their way to the Ladies Market in the Yau Tsim Mong District, Jimin, Hannah and Hoseok pass through narrow alleyways.
Hoseok:
"Is this some kind of artsy area?"
Hannah:
"Not sure about that…
Many guide books mentioned that market, but I'm already enjoying these streets.
They give off such a worn down vibe.
I love it."
Jimin:
"Imagine all of us wearing vintage clothes and posing here for some pictures."
Hannah looks over to him, and she nods.
Hannah:
"Great idea.
We should keep this part of Hong Kong in mind."
Hoseok:
"Not sure anyone would recognize us right now."
Hannah laughs.
Hannah:
"Definitely not!"
Both managed to put on neutral coloured clothes, which are as worn down as the alleys they are walking through. Hoseok finalised his look with huge black-framed glasses and a khaki bucket hat while Jimin picked cheap-looking sunglasses, a black wig, and a cap.
Jimin:
"What do you think about this?"
He holds up a colourful t-shirt under his chin.
Hoseok:
"I love it."
Jimin:
"Let's get two!"
Hoseok:
"Partner look?"
Jimin winks at him and grabs another shirt in neon yellow hues.
Hannah:
"Why did I agree again to join you guys?"
Hoseok:
"I don't get why you're not into shopping, Hannah."
Hannah:
"It's a waste of money and time."
Jimin pouts.
Jimin:
"No!!
You could try on this dress, for example."
He grabs the light green wrap dress to his left.
Jimin:
"How about this?"
While he checks the size and changes it for another, Hannah stares at the subtle floral pattern.
Hannah:
"It's…"
Hoseok:
"Nice pick, Jimin!
That's cute."
Hannah rolls her eyes and clicks her tongue.
Jimin:
"At least try it on…"
Jimin lifts the dress and gestures to her to get to the changing room.
Hoseok:
"I'd love to see you in this!"
Hannah:
"Seems like I don't have a choice."
She takes the dress and tries it on in the tiny booth the shop provides. Without a mirror, she can't check herself and steps outside for the guys to judge.
Hannah:
"I'm done…
What do you think?"
Hoseok turns around, and his eyes widen. He nods, appreciative.
Hoseok:
"I'll buy it for you if you refuse to get it!
The green colour emphasizes your eyes."
Hannah looks over to Jimin, who froze in his movement and stares at her.
Hannah:
"Is it… that bad?"
Jimin:
"Bad?"
He shakes his head, and she raises one eyebrow.
Jimin:
"You look… stunning."
Hoseok pays for her dress and steps next to Jimin.
Hoseok:
"Keep it on.
While we look like two homeless dudes, you at least look elegant."
Hannah takes her clothes and stuffs them into her backpack. She knows it is useless to discuss this further with them. Jimin doesn't stop staring at her.
Jimin:
"You don't wear dresses often…"
Hannah shrugs.
Hannah:
"Not my thing."
They walk to the pier to take the Star Ferry to cross the river. Hannah insisted on checking out The Peak, a famous platform in Hong Kong.
Arriving at the Central & Western District of Hong Kong, they are impressed by the number of trees they see ahead of them. They take the streetcar up to the top to enjoy the full view of this enormous city.
Hannah:
"Wow!
This looks breathtaking!"
Jimin, Hoseok and Hannah have to wait for people to leave before they can enjoy the view without looking past mobile phones blocking the view. The Peak is covered by a large park with lush greenery, nature trails, and more beautiful lookouts with views over the thriving metropolis below.
They walk around the platform for a while before taking a break at a restaurant.
Hoseok:
"What should we eat?"
Hannah:
"I have never heard of half of the menu, but let's randomly pick some dishes."
Hoseok:
"Are you sure about that?"
Hannah:
"No risk, no fun."
She winks at him and turns to Jimin.
Jimin:
"Mh…
I'm still stuffed from breakfast.
Not sure I want much."
Hoseok:
"What?
They have dumplings!"
Hannah:
"Yeah, Mochi.
You cannot turn down dumplings in Hong Kong."
Hoseok and Hannah look at each other and raise one arm each to gain one of the waiters' attention. Both order several dishes.
Hoseok:
"You'll need to help us, Jimin."
Jimin stares at the packed table in front of him. It isn't possible to see the surface anymore.
Hannah:
"I hope everything is edible…"
Hoseok:
"They wouldn't sell it otherwise."
Hannah:
"But that doesn't mean it's tasty."
She grimaces and looks to Jimin.
Hannah:
"I'll try everything first, and if I think it's good…
Will you help me finish it?"
Jimin:
"Maybe I can eat a little…"
She smiles and gets out her phone.
Hannah:
"Selfie time!"
Jimin:
"Yeees!"
Hannah moves her phone as far as she can to capture all of their faces and the overflowing table. Everyone smiles into the camera and raises one hand showing the peace sign.
After pressing the shutter a couple of times, Hannah checks the results and sends them the picture she likes the most. She hurries to send it to their new group chat as well.
Hannah sends a picture. Hannah: We will make sure he's eating enough today. Yoongi: Well done, Noona! Jungkook: It's working! Taehyung sends a picture. Taehyung: Jungkook was starving. Hannah: Good job, Tae.
Hannah suggests they hike down the hill to enjoy nature and help their stomachs digest all the food they consumed.
02.12.2016
Today is BTS' big day in Hong Kong, the Mnet Asian Music Awards. Every member is exceptionally nervous and tense.
In total, they are nominated for six different categories - including the three big Daesangs:
- Song of the Year
- Album of the Year
- Artist of the Year
A Daesang award is one of the highest achievements for a group or artist in the K-Pop industry. Daesangs focus on every record released by the artist that year and how many copies - physically and digitally - were sold. Winning one of these awards would be a meaningful moment in the band's history.
The guys come backstage after their rehearsal.
Yoongi:
"I'm going to stand there and say >Fire< like I did until now. I've done it in the centre, too."
Seokjin watches their rehearsal while getting styled.
Jimin:
"Yes, today...
J-Hope-ahjussi ...
This Ahjussi here, too."
Namjoon:
"It's not me."
Jimin:
"We are planning on doing Blood, Sweat & Tears."
Namjoon:
"But you're doing something more important with that Ahjussi."
Hoseok looks down at his phone.
Jimin:
"With me?"
Namjoon:
"Yes."
Jimin:
"I'm going to do a part of Hobi-hyung's intro.
I'm going to do that dance later.
Not the whole thing, but a small part.
It's tough…"
Namjoon:
"I watched the rehearsal.
I don't want to admit it, but you looked a little bit cool.
Jimin:
"Really?"
He smiles, and they give each other a high five.
Hoseok:
"Yes. I am planning to reveal something incredible.
Today, my intro and Jimin's song got mixed, and we prepared a memorable performance.
The important thing is that Jimin is doing my performance, too."
Jimin:
"Today, I want to perform with my eyes covered."
Hannah:
"But you won't see anything...
Will you be OK?"
Jimin:
"I want to emphasize the elements and symbols from our Blood, Sweat & Tears video on stage."
Hannah:
"Oh!
I love that idea!"
Jimin:
"We're here as nominees for the Daesangs.
I want to give my best to deliver my most remarkable performance."
Hannah:
"Don't forget...
It's going to be different than training in your practise room.
Are you sure about this?"
Jimin:
"Yes!
Hobi-hyung will be next to me, so I am sure I can do it.
Hoseok:
"Jimin wouldn't say he's okay if he doesn't mean it.
I'll be right there with him, making the opening the best it can be."
As soon as their makeup is done, they head over to appear on the red carpet.
Hoseok:
"Red carpet!"
Namjoon looks down at Hoseok's shoes and shakes his head.
Namjoon:
"Hoseok just woke up.
Look at his shoes."
Hannah moves down the camera to capture his shoes.
Hoseok:
"Ah, my slippers."
Namjoon:
"Where are your sneakers?"
Hoseok shrugs, and Yoongi appears in the camera frame.
Yoongi:
"We are going to the red carpet...
I exercised a lot, like doing 100 squats every day.
And I didn't eat anything after 6 p.m."
Hannah:
"And I am not happy about that.
We're currently trying to take care of Jimin, but whenever such an event happens... you all go crazy."
She shakes her head.
Yoongi:
"But I ate yesterday."
Hannah:
"Oh, wow...
But not much!"
Yoongi:
"Hey, I want to look my best today."
She rolls her eyes, and he smiles at her.
Best Music Video
BTS loses the first category of the evening to another group.
Also, the following category…
Best Male Group
… another band wins that prize.
Next will be BTS' performance, so they prepare themselves backstage. Hoseok checks his dance moves one last time, even though he practised during every spare minute for days. His expression looks intense and focused.
>> He might appear silly most of the time, but I am still amazed whenever this serious side of Hoseok shows up. <<
Jimin walks towards her.
Hannah:
"I have to admit…
Hoseok looks forbiddingly hot whenever he gets passionate."
Jimin:
"You're right.
Hyung is such an inspiration, and I'm honoured to share the stage with him.
Even though I am nervous as fuck now."
Hannah:
"It's going to be legendary, and people will talk about this for a long time.
By choosing to cover your eyes you increased the level of difficulty, but I know you'll deliver a flawless performance."
Jimin:
"Thank you, Hannah.
That means a lot to me.
Now I'm sure I can do it!
Knowing ARMY will cheer us up, and you're here with me."
She places her hand on his head to pat it.
Hannah:
"You got this, Park Jimin.
Hannah:
"Damn, that was incredible!!"
Yoongi:
"Rather regretful..."
Hannah:
"What do you mean?
You guys did an exceptional job!"
Jimin:
"We could have been better."
Hannah:
"Stop it!
Both of you.
I got goosebumps when Jimin and Hoseok performed together.
It was soooo beautiful."
Backstage they hurry to get changed to mingle with the crowd again for the next award. Even though not all members finished, the following category already started.
Best Dance Performance - Male Group
>> Someone did this on purpose…
They couldn't finish in time.
Poor Jin and Tae… <<
Song of the Year
The award goes to… another band is named.
Album of the Year
They don't get this award either.
>> Okay.
That's fine.
But still…
I can almost feel it.
They did so well this year!
They have to get it... <<
Artist of the Year
>> YES!! YES!!!!
THEY DID IT!!
They FUCKING DID IT!!!
Everyone who doubted them… take that, haters!!
Ha!!! <<
Yoongi:
"Hannah…"
He cannot stop crying and tries to hide his face. Hannah runs over to him and embraces him into a long and warm hug.
Hannah:
"Didn't I tell you that you guys have a chance?
I am so proud of you!!!
So damn proud..."
Yoongi:
"I wasn't planning to cry…
I didn't want to cry."
Hannah:
"Who cares?
These are happy and emotional tears which deserve to be cried."
Hoseok joins their hug as well.
Hoseok:
"I'm so happy.
I don't know what to do in this situation."
Yoongi:
"Before WINGS came out… before the album came out, I cried a lot with Namjoon.
Before we debuted…
We wondered if we would ever debut..."
He dries his tears with the tissue Namjoon handed him.
Namjoon:
"We talked about what it could be like ten years ago."
Yoongi:
"We talked about it in the practice room.
That's the day the album was released, right?"
Hannah:
"Yes, October 11th."
Yoongi:
"Today is a good day."
Hannah:
"Yes, it is."
Hoseok:
"We worked hard."
Namjoon:
"Thank you, guys.
I love you."
Namjoon pulls the guys in a group hug.
Namjoon:
"And thank you!"
After letting go of his friends, he embraces Hannah in a hug.
Jungkook:
"I went out on stage joyfully, but…"
Yoongi:
"Namjoon was tearing up, too."
Jungkook:
"And we can see the audience, too."
Seokjin:
"Why is everyone crying?
Let's be happy!"
Yoongi:
"I try, but the tears won't stop."
Hannah:
"Because these are tears of joy."
