Our second episode, which turned out slightly differently than we had planned... In this episode we review the three new songs from Proof, BTS's new anthology album. As a disclaimer, we recorded this episode on the morning of Friday the 10th of June UK time, about four hours after the album and the Yet To Come music video were released, when we did not know as much about what might be coming up as we do now. As we write this description on the evening of Tuesday the 15th of June, the day when the 2022 Festa dinner party video was released, we now do know that with this the boys announced that they will be taking a break from releasing music as a group to focus on solo projects. If you listen to the episode you'll hear that our analysis of the lyrics from Friday morning did touch on this as a possibility, so while we hoped we were wrong, what we had intended to be a fun and exciting special reaction episode of our brand new podcast turned into quite a sad and emotional morning of reflection on what might lie ahead for BTS as a group and for us as Army. Over the weekend we thought we might have overreacted to the hints in the lyrics and that the episode would be too sad, but when today's announcement confirmed that our interpretation had led us down the right path we decided to release what our initial takes were, just in case they might help provide some more context, and possibly also some hope and reassurance via BTS's lyrics that our most beautiful moments together are indeed Yet To Come.
We still do not know everything about what we can expect going forward, but of course we understand and support the boys in everything they do and hope they get some well-deserved rest and an opportunity to rediscover who they are as artists and as human beings. In the meantime we will of course be here to cheer on their solo pursuits, and we also plan to continue our deep dive into their past works and achievements and hope you'll enjoy celebrating them with us in our future episodes (which we promise to make more upbeat!).
We'll also take this time to remember what BTS have taught us in terms of taking care of and loving ourselves and each other, and we are forever grateful for those lessons.
