[Bulletproof BTS] RE:suming

"billboard……"

I lowered my head and grinned. I can’t be too obvious in front of the camera. This is going to be in a documentary. I have to stay calm, but I’m still so happy...

"It's like a dream, there is a kind of... Is this what I am going through? Have we been able to stand there? Have we done something?"

It is 80% confirmed that we will attend this billboard awards ceremony as the recipients, but before we participate in this awards ceremony, we will start preparations for our [-]th anniversary homeparty.

It's rare to be able to lie on my own bed. Although there is a shooting task, the blood, sweat and tears dormitory version, I shouldn't expect a normal way to disclose the dormitory.

"Hey—it's about to start!"

I kneaded my face to make a good expression, and followed the director's counting to make corresponding expression changes. The dormitory version without the group dance was only 1 minute long.

"Everyone~ This is my brooch for public display!"

It’s just that the sideshow shooting will be a bit long. After all, the MV is not long enough, so we need to use sideshows to make up for it. In the writer’s words, it’s to satisfy the ARMY’s curiosity about us.

"My favorite of them all is—"

I opened the cabinet, took out a set of brooches given to me by Brother Jimin, and made gestures in front of the camera.

"This is Jimin's birthday present to me. It's a set of brooches. I believe you should see me wearing them on various occasions."

After showing my collection, according to the author's request, I briefly introduced my bedroom before returning the camera, and I will shoot other parts later.

The shooting of the dormitory part is easy and simple. After all, it is not a regular broadcast, but it is used on the homeParty of the fourth anniversary. I believe ARMYs will like this kind of daily content.

After a few days of domestic filming and interviews, the agency of SBS entertainers approached us and hoped that we could shoot some material for them when we went to the billboard, and the news department of JTBC had already made an appointment for an interview after winning the award.

"Do you feel that JTBC takes good care of us? The previous news is the same, only what his family said is pertinent..."

Jungkook sat in the nanny's car, tilted his head in doubt, and looked at us.

"I'm afraid this kid is stupid..."

Seokjin got the assistant role in "The Mist" after going through an audition scene. He has been in a good mood recently, and at this time he is lovingly plucking Jungkook's rabbit fur.

"Star Lord is a shareholder of JTBC, so he will take care of us."

"Mo... that's because we went to Billboard, okay?"

I sighed speechlessly, Brother Seokjin always cares about these things.

"What activities did we participate in before, what awards did we win, JTBC didn't come to take care of us, not to mention the news headquarters, even the entertainment news branch didn't come over!"

"Then you may have forgotten that when we won the grand prize last year, only JTBC's report was fairer."

Brother Yunqi pulled off his mask.

"Among our reports on Billboard this time, they are the only ones who are optimistic about us..."

"Mo... this is the truth!"

I stuck my neck, imitating Brother Shuozhen to raise his chin to raise the bar.

"Reporting should be based on facts!"

"Ha... I didn't expect our star master to be so simple..."

Brother Nan Jun raised his eyebrows, and after making a joke, he changed the subject and gave instructions.

"There will definitely be reporters at the airport. Remember not to say anything that will cause misunderstandings. Just like before, smile and wave, pretend not to hear, just walk over."

"Yeah. I know!"

The members nodded one after another, they are not children anymore, if they still don't understand this after spending so long in this circle, then the lessons learned along the way will be in vain.

We arrived in Las Vegas three days in advance, the billboard awards ceremony was scheduled on the 22nd, and we had a rest on the 19th. We visited several places around under the arrangement of the accompanying staff.

Knock knock knock!

I was still chatting with Jiang Daniel and the others, when there was a knock on the door.

"Who?"

"It's me, we're going out for dinner, do you want to be together?"

Brother Shuozhen didn't open the door and come in.

"No, brother, just pack a copy for me."

I don't really want to go out today, because I have to go to Brother Namjoon's room later to make the last confirmation and pre-rehearsal on the red carpet interview.

"OK~"

"Thank you bro~"

"Hmm~"

On the day of the award ceremony, in the hotel provided by Billboard, we changed into serious suits, and I put the brooch on the skirt, which was handmade by that Ami.

"Don't fiddle with it anymore, it's well worn."

Hoseok on the opposite side took my hand.

"I am nervous……"

This is the future I don't know, I'm nervous what if we don't get it, what if this time we're just a loser, what if...

"I'm nervous too!"

Hoseok smiled and patted himself.

"But since I've come here, even if I'm nervous, I'll go!"

I was taken aback, and nodded, yes, it's already here, even if I'm so nervous that my heart is about to jump out, I still have to go and have a look!

"We're leaving!"

Brother Shizhen reminded him outside the door.

"Hey—"

Sitting in the extended caravan sent by the organizer, I looked at the members with the same serious expressions, and then I got a little sense that we are really going to set foot on this place.

In the interview on the red carpet, there was no imaginary difficulty, but there were also unexpected repeated questions about which singer I like, who I want to cooperate with, etc., but I didn’t ask about our music.

I could feel a little helplessness in Brother Namjoon's tone, and I suddenly thought of the questions that Brother Namjoon had listed on the A4 paper. The last few questions and answers contained Brother Namjoon's small hopes.

Our musical inspirations come from...

What BTS wants to convey through music...

Our voice is...

"elder brother!"

After the red carpet interview, I grabbed Nam Joon and smiled.

"We will be able to speakmyself!"

Brother Nan Jun was taken aback, smiled with a little relief, nodded, and patted my shoulder.

"Well, that day won't be long."

"Please enter as soon as possible—"

The staff began to let us in in an orderly manner, and then greeted the next group of artists. I continued to enter the venue while greeting the singers around me with a smile.

In the rest hall arranged by the organizer, we had to wait for about an hour before the final award presentation. We were surrounded by people we didn’t know, and we didn’t dare to run too much. The language barrier was also one of the reasons.

"I'm going to the bathroom!"

Brother Namjoon put down the Coke in his hand, and then looked at me.

"You push it up."

"Ok!"

I nodded. After all, after Brother Namjoon left, I was the only one in the team who could talk smoothly. If other European and American singers come over, I can only be responsible for external communication.

Fortunately, Brother Namjoon came and went very quickly, and we also met two singers who came forward to talk. There was no in-depth conversation, just some basic greetings. After all, it is the first time for an Asian artist to be nominated for an award on Billboard. There will always be Curiosity, and the content of the exchange is mostly an understanding of the basic situation of both parties.

The one-hour wait ended in a tense and excited mood. We sat in the seats arranged by the organizer, surrounded by people who spoke English, and the members who were usually noisy were much quieter.

"I'm a little hot..."

I tugged at the collar, wearing a formal suit in the 37-degree heat, I was really afraid that my makeup would be ruined.

"How can this be a bit hot? It's so hot!"

Brother Namjoon has already opened his arms. If the occasion was not too formal and it was our first appearance on the billboard, we would probably have rolled up our sleeves.

"Next up are the nominees for TOPsocialartist—"

"call……"

Looking at the male and female award presenters who appeared in my dream on the stage, and the images of the nominees played on the big screen, I slowly breathed a sigh of relief, if it is true, if those scenes are true...

"The winner is - BTS!"

I covered my eyes and stood up. I don't know what kind of mood I'm in right now. I'm happy, nervous, excited, and a little unbelievable!

Can't believe we got...

I can't believe I actually dreamed it...

My dream will come true...
