The original line up that BTS almost debuted with

Iron

iilevn

Supreme Boy

Basic

BTS was originally planned to debut as a Hip Hop crew, not an idol group. Beenzino was offered to join the crew, but he rejected. 

But then suddenly Bang Sihyuk changed the plan and everyone else left, except for RM, Jhope, and Suga

And then the other members joined the line up

Jin (His dream used to be an actor. He got casted on his way to his school)

V (got in through an audition)

Jungkook (He went to audition for Superstar K and then got casted by Big Hit, he was 15 back then)

Jimin (got in through an audition)

It was truly a God's plan that Bang Sihyuk changed the path from Hip Hop crew to an idol group..

-I have a question.. Has Jin always had those wide shoulders..? I mean, his shoulders are really wide.. That's just something that you have to be born with.. Does any of you have his childhood pictures? He's seriously so cool..ㅜㅜㅜㅜ

-I personally think they would be successful no matter which path they chose to debut with.. Both line ups are amazing..

-Taehyung got in through an audition? I remember reading that Taehyung got casted when he accompanied his friend to audition for Big Hit, though...

-It is truly a God's plan that Iron dropped out of the group..

-Does that mean the three members from the original line up used to do Hip Hop..?

-Whoa.. That's so amazing..ㅠㅠ I'm sure there were some debate and arguments when Bang Sihyuk changed the whole plan. But he believed in what he's doing and look at BTS now..

-Thank you so much for forming this line up and debuting them as BTS..

-Thank you so much, Big Hit..

-Wow, Iron.. They dodged a really huge problem, then.. Seems like successful people will be successful no matter what..

-I'm so thankful that the person who uses drugs dropped out from the original line up..

Japanese choose the top 5 lyrics that they're tired of hearing

1. You're not alone

2. I want to protect you

3. Don't let go of that hand

4. If I could go and turn back to that time

5. I call your name, a heart that I can't reach

instiz

-I feel like I just finished listening to a whole song after scrolling down this post..

-'You're not alone'..ㅋㅋㅋ I already knew it's going to be in the list..ㅋㅋㅋ

-No matter what anime I'm watching, I always hear 'You're not alone' at least once in their soundtracks..ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-My bias has a song titled 'You're not alone'..ㅋㅋㅋ It's funny just to think about it..ㅋㅋ

-Jpop vibes.. Seems like Japanese are really into such vibes..

-This is seriously so funny..ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-I agree..! But I still like Jpop, because I prefer songs about youth rather than love..ㅋㅋ

-You probably have heard these lyrics at least once in your life..ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Kimi-wa, hitori ja nai~~ I think I've heard such lyrics in one of BTS' song, but I can't remember the title..

-As a viewer of Naruto, I think I often hear these sentences in the show..ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Even me, who's not a Japanese nor a fan of Jpop, is already tired of hearing these lyrics..ㅋㅋ

-Hitori ja nai~~ We are waiting for the moment~~~

-Hitori ja nai~~ No no no~~ Isn't it also in Apink's No No No..?

9. [+89][-3] Woojoo-ya, I love you.. I started watching the show because Kang Chanhee is in it, but I have to admit that Woojoo is such a great character..

10. [+82][-1] Mr. Jo.. I'm going crazy because of how cute he looks when he has that expression whenever Kim Jooyoung says something to him.. An expression of a hurt puppy..

Employees in broadcasting companies reveal the reason why they don't air sitcoms anymore

It's because we're no longer in the generation where families would gather up and watch sitcoms while having dinner or late-night snacks.

That's why they find there's no reasons to produce sitcoms anymore.

pann

[+661][-2]

1. [+218][-14] There are a lot of sensitive people these days. A lot of people would find some jokes uncomfortable to hear and turn it into a controversy or something like that..

2. [+108][-2] It somehow feels sad to hear the reason..

3. [+41][-0] Even back then when I used to watch Gag Concert or Sitcom, I would find some joke to be too harsh or cross the lines.. 

4. [+39][-1] Youngsters these days tend to watch Netflix or Youtube more.. Only elderly people watch TV..

5. [+29][-0] I think, rather than because the reason stated above, it's because the shows are simply boring.. I've seen a lot of sitcoms after Highkick and I have to say that they were boring, none of the characters are outstanding or unique. I find Western sitcoms to be more interesting, that's why I tend to watch Netflix more than TV now..

Is calling other people 'pretty' considered as rude these days?

So, I just made two new friends. And you guys all know when we just know each other, we would talk about how pretty they are to build up conversation, right??

One of my new friends called me pretty. It felt nice to hear and I thanked her, I was about to tell her that she looks pretty too but my other new friend argued. She claimed that telling someone else is pretty means that we're judging their looks, and that is rude. She lost her temper. So I said, I had no problem and felt happy to hear her call me pretty. I mean, who on earth wouldn't be happy if somebody else tells them they're pretty..

So anyway, this girl literally lost it. I didn't think it was a big problem, I was just about to let it go but she kept on talking about how rude is it to tell someone how pretty they are. That we need to fix that habit of ours. It ruined the whole mood and in the end, we just walked back to our class.

But is calling other people 'pretty' considered as rude..?

I seriously don't understand..

[+302][-62]

1. [+370][-104] She must be a feminist..

2. [+284][-57] People these days are so sensitive..ㅋㅋㅋ

3. [+250][-53] So people these days get mad about simple things like that..? I don't understand..

4. [+132][-8] If your opponent doesn't feel happy when you tell them they're pretty, you can simply just apologize. But I don't think it's right for your friend to get  all mad and upset at that condition, considering that your other friend wasn't even talking to her..

5. [+121][-13] It could be offensive in some situations too, don't you think so? For example, if your friend tells you that you're pretty, you would feel nice and happy. But if a stranger suddenly comes up to you and say, 'You look okay..ㅋㅋ' then you must feel really offended, right? I think your friend is just warning you to not judge other people by their looks..

-Why is it called 'trick'? I don't understand..

  -The longer the duration is, the higher the ratings they would get..

-Reply 1994's last episode is almost 2 hours long..

-When I watched Reply 1994's last episode, I seriously thought I was watching a movie..ㅋㅋㅋ It was so long, and once I realized it.. I've been watching for almost 2 hours..ㅋㅋㅋ

-This trick sucks;; People would still watch dramas even if they were shorter;;

-I had no idea Prison Playbook's last episode was that long.. It was so fun so I just kept watching it till the end without knowing how much time has passed..

-I'm just asking this out of curiosity.. Why is the longer the duration, the higher the ratings they would get..?

-Some of these dramas are actually that good.. All the time spent watching was worth it, so I don't really mind the duration..ㅋㅋㅋ Even though I have to admit that is such a sly trick..

-These dramas are good, I have never thought the long durations to be a trick or something like that..

-I can't imagine how much the editors had to suffer..

-As a viewer who enjoyed most of these dramas, I have no problem with the long durations..

-tvN's dramas are usually that long.. They produce good dramas, so trick like this is actually kind of useless.. Their ratings are safe enough without using any tricks..

Do you prefer movies with happy endings or sad endings?

I have become a mellow-movie addicts after watching Titanic, Me Before You, and Let Me Eat Your Pancreas.

I'm still sad just by thinking about the endings now. 

How about you guys?

Upvote for Happy Endings

Downvote for Sad Endings

Don't you think this is heart-fluttering?ㅎㅎ

1. [+175][-1] I'm fine with either endings, as long as it's not an open ending..ㅋㅋㅋ Open endings are the worst...ㅜㅜ

2. [+107][-4] I like happy endings! Sad endings make me regret watching the whole movie..

3. [+88][-10] I like how sad endings leave the viewers a deep impression..!

4. [+28][-0] I have to agree that sad endings leave a deeper impressions, but I don't like something sad.. I can't help but imagine how the endings would be if the lead characters did something else.. 

5. [+15][-0] I like happy endings..ㅠㅠ I want people to be happy, even the fictional characters inside the movies.. I really hate the movies where the lead characters die or something like that..
