BTS in SG!

I thought I could let this concert pass by 

without much comment here,

but I was wrong.

I saw BTS live,

and I get it even more now

why people love them so.

💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

Tonight was unbelievable ~

Truth Untold 

-- we all sang together, it was lovely and amazing.

When the rappers came on to do Tear, 

the whole crowd devolved into INSANE.

I have no words. 

Seriously, the energy!!! 

And hello, look at the awesome colours -- 

the screen became black and white for the rappers. 

And all the ARMY were lighted green.

GORGEOUS

I believe this was when V said I purple you

and all our lights became purple!!!!!!!

💜😭😍

What an experience! BTS is awesome but so are the ARMY fans, and it's true I think how the dynamic feeds into each side like an endless cycle. The way we all sing along, almost word for word, in Korean, mind you -- was astounding. The atmosphere was off-the-charts-insane. BTS has speeches and greetings, saying how surprised they are by our welcome, how much energy they get just being there with everyone, how much they missed Singapore, how they want to come again to see us -- and everyone is just screaming their heads off in happiness. I also have to add how much I love their efforts in speaking English to us, clearly rehearsed, but amazingly touching nonetheless. And of course, the visual aesthetics never let us down, even at such a huge concert venue -- the lights! and colours! playing off the music! the CLOTHES. At one point, both F and I looked at each other, and gushed about the boys' gorgeous jackets. Seriously, I want them jackets, they were beautiful.

At first, I thought I wouldn't let loose so much; I didn't expect myself to go completely fangirl-nuts. But then, the excitement just kept building up as the concert progressed; when they started doing the old songs (OMGGGGG) like I Need You, and Run, and Fun Boys, and Baepsae (OMGGGGGGG), I started to lose my cool. Then Truth Untold came on, and I utterly lost it. The lady next to me (who had her little kid with earmuffs on next to her) also went a bit nuts. The whole bench was vibrating with excitement. Right after the vocalists' showcase, the rappers came on with Tear (which I have to add is possibly my favourite rap piece by BTS ever), and ohmygodddddddddddd. I have no coherent words. It was SO COOL and everyone was shouting the chorus together and alternately screaming from all the awesome. I really wondered if they heard us all the way across the Kallang River.

They got goofier towards the end of the concert, and gave unscripted speeches in both English and Korean (translated, of course) -- and I love how natural and real they appeared. Jin was so goofy and funny and omg kental, it was so cute. He spoke his entire bit in English, and ended with okay, thank you, finish -- which sent everyone more or less into hysterics and squeals. They seemed really sincere, and tried to come close to everyone, and waved at everybody; at one point, Jimin came as close to our side as he possibly could (he was still tiny) and whilst F next to me was screaming Park Jimin! intermittently like she did throughout the whole concert, we waved our arms insanely in the air, and he waved back at the whole crowd -- I like to think our crazy hand waving made him wave back, hahahaha.

A taste of our singing along:

I was so happy we got to sing along together to Epiphany (my song of 2018).

Oh, BTS.

I didn't want the night to end.
