A little guide to BTS, Stray Kids, and Kpop.

 Hello fellow bloggers today I will be doing a blog post on k-pop as a suggestion from someone anonymous. I´m am just obsessed with k-pop this year! For you people who don´t know much about k-pop its an acronym for Korean pop. I adore mostly all the k-pop groups out there, but I am especially obsessed with these two k-pop groups - Stray Kids and Bts. I know almost everything about them have a whole journal all about them even thier profiles, etc.

Now I might tell you some information on BTS and Stray Kids. Iv´e been an ARMY and a Stay for over 1 year now. Their music is just so amazing and I just wish I could see them in person. ( ARMY is BTS fans and Stay are Stray kids fans. Anyways here are some BTS facts for those of you who want to Stan them or just know more about them:

I hope those facts help you learn a bit about my favourite k-pop groups. If you were to chose I k-pop group I recommend being a ARMY or a Stay. But if you like other k-pop groups i´m not forcing you. K-pop is one of my favorite genres of music. They´re lyrics have deep meaning to it. My favourite song from Bts is Magic shop and Life goes on, and For Stray Kids It has to be Mixtape oh and The Veiw. These are my favorite songs because they have very deep meaning to their lyrics. I recommend you listen to them if you had the time. But here are some kpop facts about me: 

____________________________________________________________________________________Who are my Bias: OT7 for Bts and OT8 for Stray Kids ( It means one true 7 or 8 )

My favorite album: Love myself from BTS and NOEASY for Stray Kids.

My favorite song:  Bts is Magic shop and For Stray Kids My pace

My Bias Wrecker: Toxic Fans and/or Haters.

Why I got interested in k-pop: There music is so powerful and I dont see why people hate it. In my opinion I think k-pop is the best genre of music. But the main reason why I got interested is becuase of the bands backstory and how far they´ve come. I want to make as much memories as possible before they disband. 

How did I find BTS and Stray Kids: I just found one of there music videos on my recommended for YouTube and listened to it. It was actually Idol by Bts that I first heard of. Back door by Stray kids was soon found later.  Surprisingly i found it quite soothing. I started to get more and more interested with them and now I stream their music videos nonstop. Then I became an ARMY and a STAY.

What does BTS and SKZ mean to me/ What do I see in BTS and Stray Kids: I see there personalities within their members. They have all become so successful in life. Some members have unsupportive parents or mental illness but I was so glad to see them get through it. I use their qoutes alot as well.

My Favorite k-pop soloist: IU , Somi, and Jessi. I like Iu´s Celebrity song so that got me to know more about her. 

Were there any problems for me being a ARMY and a Stay: Only a few. When I found out their disbandation date I was quite shocked. But then there were the bigger problems, Blinks otherwise known as Blackpink Stans; have started to threaten BTS fans. But luckily I wasn´t involved in one of them. Blinks started to spread more rumors about BTS and it really hurt me knowing I couldn´t stop them. Its quite challenging seeing your favorite k-pop group hurt. Hence, It isn´t that hard but its quite deppressing.

When did I get so interested in BTS and Stray Kids: It started about a few months ago, around mid January. I started listen to their songs regularly and became a ARMY and a Stay. For as long as I remember I would always stream their new music videos so that they get as much views as possible.

Why do I only like BTS and Stray Kids: Thats not necessarily true. I like other k-pop groups as well such as Itzy and TXT. But I have one important rule for being a k-pop stan - Stick with your top 2 k-pop groups. Its not that I dont want to stan other k-pop groups its just that I am minimalist. I chose BTS and Stray Kids becuase they stand out to me. 

My Favorite K-drama: Meteor Garden. I mean like I just love it becuase of the plot twists, turn of events, and the mysterious characters. But I would reccomend watching it.

Here is some advice from me: Even if you dont want to stan BTS and/or Stray Kids, Go your own path even if  you want to live for a day. ( Those lyrics were by BTS ) Do what makes you happy. And If you find a k-pop group you love and are passionate about, Stan them. Make as many memories as possible before they disband. Stream their new MV´s. Thats what Im trying to do nowadays. Seeing BTS and Stray Kids live their life to the fullest, Make happy memories together, and mature are one of the many things I do as a K-pop Stan.  And don´t forget these wise BTS and Stray Kids qoutes:

BTS qoutes:

1. Forget what hurt you, but dont forget what taught you.
2. Now lets forgive ourselves Our lives our long, Trust yourself in a maze, when winter passes, spring always comes
3. When things get hard, dont give up, stop for a while look back and see how far youv´e come.Don´t forget how rewarding it is. You are most beautiful flower, amongst the millions of others.
4. Never give up on a dream youv´e been chasing your whole life.
5. I have come to love myself for who I am, for who I was, and for who I hope to become.

Stray Kids Qoutes:

1. Even if it’s hard and tiring, don’t give up

2. Without comparing to others, I’m getting closer to my dream

3. If I fail, I’ll get back up again

4. I don’t wanna get hurt again, so I’m covering my ears and walking on my path

5. I break free from those voices in my head

6. Just because someone is ahead, doesn't mean they are first
