handle with the hand. 01:35.866 --> 01:38.467 [SPEAKER_01]: Like I would not be able to. 01:38.487 --> 01:39.187 [SPEAKER_02]: In that moment. 01:39.367 --> 01:40.188 [SPEAKER_01]: To function after

like if this were you you would never drink water again like that would be the last water you ever consume in your life 02:03.982 --> 02:13.226 [SPEAKER_01]: I would black out for the remainder of the concert too, like I don't think I could remember anything about that, just because I would just be replaying that over and over and over and over. 02:13.246 --> 02:14.747 [SPEAKER_02]: I'm fully unable to recover. 02:14.767 --> 02:23.130 [SPEAKER_02]: I mean, that was honestly like beginning of just how crazy BTS are being in Europe right now. 02:23.250 --> 02:26.792 [SPEAKER_02]: Like it has

guess that's what they're called. 04:06.110 --> 04:07.812 [SPEAKER_01]: I am not surprised by that at all. 04:07.852 --> 04:09.653 [SPEAKER_01]: These are so cool. 04:10.114 --> 04:14.638 [SPEAKER_01]: They're red and on the back is just the number seven for all of them. 04:14.718 --> 04:22.746 [SPEAKER_01]: And it says FC Bayer and then Rm Sugar Jay Hope Jim and John Cook V. and they all have their own 04:23.526 --> 04:36.914 [SPEAKER_01]: Kit, and it's just so, so cool, like who ever got these, like truly, like these are gonna be worth so much on the road, I'm sure, like there's so special, very cool, very timely for the World Cup going on right now. 04:37.395 --> 04:47.200 [SPEAKER_01]: So, Tae Young actually just recently wore the full kit, like Jersey shorts and socks all to their last night in Munich, which was really, really cool. 04:48.301 --> 04:49.182 [SPEAKER_01]: It looks so good. 04:49.202 --> 04:50.823 [SPEAKER_02]: I just, he looks so good. 04:50.843 --> 05:00.408 [SPEAKER_02]: I, whoever at FC Baron Munich, Munich that had the idea to do this collab is a freaking marketing genius. 05:01.009 --> 05:02.610 [SPEAKER_02]: I mean, this is, it's like, 05:03.330 --> 05:23.072 [SPEAKER_02]: It's like their regular kit, but it's also perfect because red is the Auditon color and like on top of that BTS are performing at that stadium where that team plays like it is just so freaking smart and not to mention like it is like the most popular team in 05:24.393 --> 05:26.014 [SPEAKER_02]: Germany, I think, I don't know. 05:26.174 --> 05:27.014 [SPEAKER_02]: I could be wrong. 05:27.454 --> 05:28.794 [SPEAKER_02]: That's just what Jeremy said. 05:28.874 --> 05:38.357 [SPEAKER_02]: Okay, yeah, I trust him on soccer stuff But yeah, it's just cool that they they personalized it with the seven and then with each member's name underneath. 05:38.537 --> 05:46.360 [SPEAKER_02]: So like not only is it also already a thing in the fandom to get the members jerseys at the concerts as the special merch. 05:46.400 --> 05:47.680 [SPEAKER_02]: So this is like an additional 05:48.220 --> 06:04.865 [SPEAKER_02]: Jersey that you can collect, like, I just thought that this was genius and then it was, like, simultaneously super hot and also hilarious and very Taehyung to wear the full kit, like down to the socks really struck me, you know, on staying committed to it. 06:05.165 --> 06:14.788 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, like the members are all performing come over, you know, in like their more casual concert outfits and Taehyung standing there in this full bright red kid is just 06:15.528 --> 06:16.669 [SPEAKER_02]: Polarious and I love it. 06:16.709 --> 06:17.210 [SPEAKER_02]: I love him. 06:17.710 --> 06:18.991 [SPEAKER_01]: It's very him to do that. 06:19.031 --> 06:19.452 [SPEAKER_01]: Super him. 06:19.512 --> 06:24.817 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, and Kayla you've been talking about how he just looks incredible in red Which is very true.

outrow wings, like how special to get that. 11:45.931 --> 11:51.995 [SPEAKER_01]: And then day two, they got microcosmos and best of me, which I would have been so in my 11:57.338 --> 12:03.180 [SPEAKER_01]: I would be like on cloud now and just like euphoric, like serendipitous, this is it, yeah. 12:03.260 --> 12:11.223 [SPEAKER_02]: Best of me is one of those songs too, like you just have

[SPEAKER_02]: They're next stop was in Brussels in Belgium and on day one they did freaking Tom Maro Hello, and Hello, boy with love, and then on day two they did on and for youth from their proof album So two like proof songs, I think that that's pretty iconic to perform those both on 12:41.110 --> 12:58.600 [SPEAKER_01]: Day two yeah for youth was really a shocking one like I am not gonna lie for God about that song a little bit Yeah, and we had to go back and listen to what I was like, oh, yeah, like oh, wow like I would not have thought that there would be a surprise song, but what a blessing yeah, and yeah I mean anyone who gets tomorrow. 12:58.740 --> 13:07.825 [SPEAKER_01]: I'm immediately jealous like Completely, you know, it's that that meme of like I'm so happy for you But

[SPEAKER_02]: That's like a happy face, and That's it. 13:19.331 --> 13:29.597 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, and then we have to talk a little bit about London here because they performed in London after seven years and the last time that they performed there was at Wimbley Stadium in 2019 13:30.898 --> 13:51.190 [SPEAKER_01]: So, huge moment for England and European fans, this time they were at the Tottenham Hot Spurs Stadium, I hope I pronounced that right, and just a huge moment for all of the fans in England for day one at the surprise song was Life Goes On and then Dionysus, which 13:51.931 --> 14:07.032 [SPEAKER_01]: Those two are so they're polar opposite man like I can't imagine hearing life goes on and then just like boom In today and I don't know which way I don't know which way

14:59.142 --> 15:09.907 [SPEAKER_02]: I was just gonna say be freaking out how many times have we cried at a BTS concert We freaking almost cried during who again when they came out into it But we both turned to each other like why did we want to cry right now? 15:10.488 --> 15:14.970 [SPEAKER_02]: But like literally we also had like a running threat on our Twitter It was mutual though. 15:15.050 --> 15:15.730 [SPEAKER_02]: No seriously. 15:15.830 --> 15:19.572 [SPEAKER_02]: I was trying to fight it back for like 45 seconds before I turned to you and said that 15:20.392 --> 15:22.654

16:38.519 [SPEAKER_02]: Like, singing his beautiful siren song. 16:40.240 --> 16:41.280 [SPEAKER_02]: Never ever forget. 16:41.861 --> 16:53.763 [SPEAKER_02]: This is really cool that they performed to me like Bapsay, by the way, because we talked about that last time they were in London was in 2019, they hadn't been to Germany since 2018 for the love yourself tour. 16:54.243 --> 17:04.626 [SPEAKER_02]: That's the first tour that we saw BTS on, and we saw them about a month prior in Fort Worth, and then they went to Europe after that, and you know, 17:09.847 --> 17:12.128 [SPEAKER_01]: Man, Germany really waited so long. 17:12.188 --> 17:12.788 [SPEAKER_01]: So long. 17:13.329 --> 17:15.049 [SPEAKER_01]: I feel like a lot of these European stops. 17:15.910 --> 17:17.050 [SPEAKER_02]: They all waited a long time. 17:17.070 --> 17:30.496 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I agree especially because thinking about like after, you know, the map of the soul seven map of the soul tour being canceled, when BTS did produce a few concerts like Post COVID, it was just in the state. 17:30.536 --> 17:31.717 [SPEAKER_02]: It was LA Las Vegas. 17:32.077 --> 17:35.659 [SPEAKER_02]: And so a lot of European fans weren't able to either get tickets or travel to that. 17:35.679 --> 17:38.660 [SPEAKER_02]: So yes, these fans waited so long. 17:39.100 --> 17:55.211 [SPEAKER_02]: So you know BTS are having an incredible time being there again with them being able to perform for them see them again I'm just sure that it means a lot that they still have such fans over there after all this time and for the fans to be able to like experience BTS again after all these years 17:57.013 --> 18:10.670 [SPEAKER_02]: night two of Munich they performed louder than bombs for the first time ever louder than bombs has never been performed and then they performed blood sweatin tears which is just fucking incredible. 18:11.550 --> 18:13.171 [SPEAKER_01]: Um, the clips of that. 18:13.191 --> 18:13.311 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah. 18:13.731 --> 18:15.972 [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, I wish Blood Swin tears was on the set list. 18:15.992 --> 18:17.993 [SPEAKER_01]: That's one of those iconic songs. 18:18.033 --> 18:18.453 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah. 18:18.794 --> 18:20.615 [SPEAKER_01]: Well, stand the tests of time. 18:20.675 --> 18:25.997 [SPEAKER_01]: I feel like when you think like 50 years down the road, and you think of BTS, you'll think of Blood Swin. 18:26.117 --> 18:26.577 [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, yeah. 18:26.637 --> 18:27.898 [SPEAKER_01]: It's just one of the best stuff. 18:27.918 --> 18:29.239 [SPEAKER_01]: Definitely one of their top 10. 18:30.299 --> 18:40.829 [SPEAKER_01]: Huge moment for louder than bombs because that has been a like deep cut fan favorite for a lot of army And it finally got performed. 18:40.930 --> 18:46.335 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I think that's so so amazing and how special to like save it for 18:46.895 --> 18:55.136 [SPEAKER_02]: They're German fans that they have not seen in eight years, you know, like those fans deserve that so much They deserved pipe hyper. 18:55.176 --> 18:57.597 [SPEAKER_02]: They deserved babesay and bloodswence years. 18:57.897 --> 19:15.720 [SPEAKER_02]: Like the thing is too when BTS were touring there the last time babesay was on the regular rotation, you know So like they gave them a song that they were like we know you love the song We know that it's been eight years since you've heard this song in concert like I love that they did that for them same thing with bloodswence years, you know 19:15.840 --> 19:17.561 [SPEAKER_01]: I don't think about that. 19:17.581 --> 19:19.802 [SPEAKER_01]: They probably performed those songs back in 2018. 19:19.843 --> 19:20.303 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah. 19:20.643 --> 19:22.464 [SPEAKER_01]: The live yourself concert there. 19:23.325 --> 19:23.605 [SPEAKER_01]: Wow. 19:23.665 --> 19:24.545 [SPEAKER_01]: So amazing. 19:25.466 --> 19:26.467 [SPEAKER_01]: So so amazing. 19:26.687 --> 19:29.148 [SPEAKER_01]: So they are headed to Paris next. 19:29.669 --> 19:32.550 [SPEAKER_01]: That'll be on July 16th and July 17th. 19:33.671 --> 19:50.529 [SPEAKER_01]: super excited for all of the fans there and I can't wait to see more of what surprise songs they're going to be performing, but crazy moments they're going to have on stage with each other, outfits, et cetera, so just love getting to see everything that's happening over in Europe. 19:51.930 --> 19:54.111 [SPEAKER_01]: Just this tour has been so fun. 19:54.411 --> 19:55.432 [SPEAKER_01]: It's really been so fun. 19:55.672 --> 20:01.815 [SPEAKER_02]: It's been a blast and we just we love that they're continuing it and then shortly after, Paris. 20:02.175 --> 20:04.877 [SPEAKER_02]: They're zip and right back to the US. 20:05.397 --> 20:06.017 [SPEAKER_02]: For a huge event. 20:06.057 --> 20:14.142 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, they're going to come back to the US because BTS are performing at the FIFA World Cup finals next week, which is crazy. 20:14.402 --> 20:16.103 [SPEAKER_01]: So excited. 20:16.683 --> 20:28.650 [SPEAKER_01]: Like, all of the American Army, I'm sure, and also, like, just North America in general, because of the FIFA World Cup being hosted here, especially like Kansas City, hello, like, it's in our city. 20:29.511 --> 20:32.392 [SPEAKER_01]: It's been so prominent, it's been everywhere. 20:32.892 --> 20:37.255 [SPEAKER_01]: So, we, I think, have been more invested in the World Cup than we ever have been. 20:37.255 --> 20:45.641 [SPEAKER_01]: But at least you and I, Kayla, and so the fact that BTS are going to be performing at the halftime show is so cool. 20:45.681 --> 20:47.442 [SPEAKER_01]: That's going to be on July 19th. 20:47.842 --> 20:49.483 [SPEAKER_01]: They're performing at MetLife. 20:50.024 --> 20:55.868 [SPEAKER_01]: I think there's a couple other people like Justin Bieber, Shakira, Madonna, and Madonna. 20:55.908 --> 20:57.869 [SPEAKER_02]: Gustavo Coltman. 20:58.430 --> 20:59.050 [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, yeah, is there? 20:59.130 --> 20:59.470 [SPEAKER_01]: Okay. 21:00.391 --> 21:00.871 [SPEAKER_02]: Oh, yeah. 21:00.891 --> 21:02.913 [SPEAKER_02]: It's curated by Chris Martin from Coldplay. 21:07.451 --> 21:22.991 [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, he's a BTS fan, I know, I know, I just am really happy because I don't feel like we have anything more to prove of like BTS's talent and popularity at this point. 21:23.011 --> 21:23.652 [SPEAKER_01]: No, but 21:24.673 --> 21:36.307 [SPEAKER_01]: the fact that they're performing in the states where more U.S. fans are now more involved in the FIFA World Cup than ever. 21:36.568 --> 21:39.111 [SPEAKER_01]: And they're going to be seeing BTS at the halftime show. 21:42.295 --> 21:53.231 [SPEAKER_01]: I don't need that extra validation of their importance and talent and how incredible they are, but I'd like to show that they are like truly the biggest band in the world. 21:53.251 --> 21:55.374 [SPEAKER_02]: Yes, I honestly... 21:56.235 --> 22:00.499 [SPEAKER_02]: I'm so excited for this lineup of people headlining the show. 22:00.959 --> 22:03.501 [SPEAKER_02]: Like, I think Shakira, obviously. 22:03.541 --> 22:05.923 [SPEAKER_02]: I feel like Shakira does like every other World Cup. 22:06.003 --> 22:09.086 [SPEAKER_02]: She is just like synonymous with World Cup half-time show music. 22:09.246 --> 22:19.235 [SPEAKER_02]: Her song was like the World Cup song this year that they debuted to open the World Cup just like Jungkook's dreamers was in 2022 for the World Cup in Dubai. 22:19.855 --> 22:48.850 [SPEAKER_02]: I love that like Madonna's performing, because this is the North American World Cup, so we have like an American artist Madonna, we have a Canadian artist Justin Bieber, the other guy who's on the list Gustavo Duda Mal, he's not a Mexican artist, which I thought he might be before looking him up just because we have like the American North Canadian, you know, and we have the North America, but he is the conductor of the Philharmonic Orchestra in LA, and he's been a Swaylin. 22:49.410 --> 23:12.255 [SPEAKER_02]: So bring that musical element into it like a Philharmonic orchestra conductor into the halftime show like we're going to have some really beautiful music and like blends of different styles like we're going to get like the pop from Madonna BTS and Justin Bieber honestly all have great pop music you know, um, Shakira's just so iconic. 23:12.955 --> 23:21.204 [SPEAKER_02]: I just think that it's so cool to that Shakira and Junguk are the only people on the list now to perform at the World Cup more than once. 23:22.085 --> 23:22.385 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah. 23:22.826 --> 23:23.627 [SPEAKER_01]: Like, yeah. 23:23.667 --> 23:24.828 [SPEAKER_01]: That's fucking iconic. 23:25.349 --> 23:27.391 [SPEAKER_01]: I just think that's special for Junguk. 23:27.971 --> 23:28.612 [SPEAKER_02]: I really wonder what 23:32.698 --> 23:34.638 [SPEAKER_02]: But I have no idea what they'll perform. 23:34.698 --> 23:36.119 [SPEAKER_01]: I think we do what they're going to perform. 23:36.339 --> 23:38.319 [SPEAKER_01]: Are they going to go all out with Hooligan? 23:38.379 --> 23:39.979 [SPEAKER_01]: Like, right off the bat? 23:39.999 --> 23:40.820 [SPEAKER_01]: Like, really just... 23:41.040 --> 23:46.501 [SPEAKER_02]: I feel like they had a little bit of performing stuff from Auditong because it's like, hello. 23:46.601 --> 23:48.581 [SPEAKER_02]: You know, so I'm really curious. 23:48.741 --> 23:49.701 [SPEAKER_02]: I'm really curious. 23:49.981 --> 23:54.802 [SPEAKER_02]: They probably had BTS also because they expected the South Korea team to go further. 23:55.062 --> 23:59.543 [SPEAKER_02]: They got out much earlier in the World Cup than what was expected from their team. 24:00.123 --> 24:06.648 [SPEAKER_02]: So, you know, they're probably thinking that, like maybe they wouldn't be in the finals, but they would have been like in the last round before the finals or something. 24:06.668 --> 24:10.471 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I'm really curious to see what they end up doing. 24:10.571 --> 24:16.155 [SPEAKER_02]: And now that we know it's curated by Chris Martin too, I think that's good news for BTS. 24:16.936 --> 24:17.817 [SPEAKER_01]: I can't wait to watch it. 24:17.837 --> 24:18.858 [SPEAKER_01]: I'm for sure gonna watch it. 24:18.878 --> 24:35.690 [SPEAKER_02]: Oh yeah, we're gonna we're going to like a watch party and like our friends invited us and I was like as long as you know Actually before I could even say anything Jeremy was like we can come as long as you know that we need to have the half time show it full volume and like we will be watching BTS and I was like 24:36.063 --> 24:43.414 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, so as long as you guys are ready for my crazy when BTS are on the stage, like, yeah, so I'm excited for it. 24:43.514 --> 24:44.095 [SPEAKER_02]: Absolutely. 24:44.876 --> 24:48.301 [SPEAKER_01]: Hey, yeah, I don't, I don't think we're going to like watch pretty or anything. 24:48.421 --> 24:49.403 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, but you'll watch it. 24:49.623 --> 24:51.326 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I'll be, yeah, yeah. 24:52.066 --> 24:54.528 [SPEAKER_01]: Tuning in for sure woke up finals man. 24:54.668 --> 25:20.423 [SPEAKER_02]: It was really cool that some of them were hosted in KC It's awesome Well, maybe one of the songs that BTS will perform there is normal because They're teasing normal right now heavy on their social media and on Spotify So this started with each member updating their Instagram bio to say Lamron in all caps, which of course is normal backwards 25:21.063 --> 25:35.229 [SPEAKER_02]: and then BTS' official Instagram posted an image with the caption, Lamron, the real, and they also changed their profile picture to like Lamron normal spelled backwards. 25:35.649 --> 25:49.175 [SPEAKER_02]: And the image that they posted looks like film, like maybe film negatives, of maybe potential shots of music video, or like a highlight real type of situation. 25:49.835 --> 26:05.888 [SPEAKER_02]: you know but it's all of these different like you can kind of zoom in and maybe see like like jungle reflected in a mirror or like RM lane on a bed like very much giving wings energy we're wondering like why are they doing this backwards like why 26:06.708 --> 26:29.192 [SPEAKER_02]: Lamron, you know, and is it just them being cryptic, but then when they released this image We were thinking about how usually film negatives are backwards or reversed like left to right and also inverted colors So it makes sense that like okay, maybe these are like the film negatives from What they're actually gonna end up releasing and 26:30.205 --> 26:30.465 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah. 26:30.805 --> 26:48.593 [SPEAKER_01]: And I love that theory, just because seeing the actual visual of these like films, you see Lamron spoke backwards and like I could envision that film running through like a recorder and being able to see like how it would go from right backwards to forwards. 26:48.953 --> 26:50.854 [SPEAKER_01]: So yeah, except BTS isn't. 26:50.894 --> 26:51.034 [SPEAKER_01]: But 26:52.154 --> 26:52.675 [SPEAKER_01]: I digress. 26:52.715 --> 27:00.240 [SPEAKER_01]: Like you can see how it could potentially just be backwards because of them using these like film negatives to promote it. 27:00.380 --> 27:07.184 [SPEAKER_01]: And so another theory that we kind of came up with is just that because their lives are very much not normal. 27:07.204 --> 27:08.685 [SPEAKER_01]: And that's what the song is about. 27:08.705 --> 27:14.610 [SPEAKER_01]: That maybe the backwards normal represents how they are quote on normal looks very different. 27:14.630 --> 27:16.711 [SPEAKER_01]: Like it's very backwards a very different feeling. 27:16.911 --> 27:18.192 [SPEAKER_01]: other people's normal is. 27:18.452 --> 27:20.412 [SPEAKER_01]: Which I love that interpretation. 27:20.432 --> 27:31.136 [SPEAKER_02]: I feel like that's like that's like the you know like what I first said is like the literal interpretation but what you just said is like where they want you to get with it you know. 27:31.156 --> 27:32.137 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah. 27:32.157 --> 27:39.379 [SPEAKER_01]: So like you can make out that yeah like it's normal but clearly it's not normal. 27:39.399 --> 27:39.619 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah. 27:39.879 --> 27:40.220 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah. 27:40.340 --> 27:40.600 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah. 27:41.020 --> 27:41.280 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah. 27:41.900 --> 28:02.659 [SPEAKER_01]: So we hope that we get a music video, but we are speculating that maybe we won and that it might be something more like the love yourself highlight Reels where they're like short films or short videos What kind of see but based on this film it definitely looks like it could either be a photo shoot or a reel of some sort 28:03.259 --> 28:06.101 [SPEAKER_01]: short video or potentially music video too. 28:06.321 --> 28:14.705 [SPEAKER_01]: So we'll have to wait and see there hasn't been any kind of formal announcement really about like a potential music video or anything like that. 28:14.785 --> 28:29.352 [SPEAKER_01]: However, today, just today, Billboard announced that normal is going to be the best radio single promoted from Auditong and it's going to be entering into like circulation on the radio the week of 28:31.253 --> 28:37.037 [SPEAKER_01]: So maybe that's all that the promo is about or they'll drop a music video for it around that time. 28:37.057 --> 28:38.077 [SPEAKER_01]: We'll have to wait and see. 28:38.638 --> 28:45.622 [SPEAKER_01]: But I'm very curious to hear normal on the radio and see how it takes off. 28:45.682 --> 28:48.183 [SPEAKER_01]: Like how it's received by a digital public. 28:48.584 --> 28:50.465 [SPEAKER_01]: Because it isn't the hit track. 28:50.545 --> 28:53.046 [SPEAKER_01]: But now it's being released and pushed as a single. 28:53.066 --> 28:56.809 [SPEAKER_01]: And yeah, like we hear swim all the time on the radio. 28:56.869 --> 28:58.450 [SPEAKER_01]: No, so it'll be very curious. 28:59.190 --> 29:04.836 [SPEAKER_01]: if a like people start picking up on it because it is such a fantastic song like Khaled is one of your all time favorite songs in the album. 29:04.856 --> 29:19.132 [SPEAKER_02]: Dude yeah when the album first came out it was like normal gets me I get her it's incredible and honestly I remember saying when the album first came out I wonder if they will promote normal on the radio because it's a fully English track 29:20.012 --> 29:25.094 [SPEAKER_02]: And I feel like they usually do push their full English tracks to the radio and promo that way. 29:25.114 --> 29:32.537 [SPEAKER_02]: And then I kind of just like forgot about that because it's been months, but it makes sense that they're kind of doing the secondary thing. 29:32.557 --> 29:35.157 [SPEAKER_02]: It also is very interesting timing. 29:35.538 --> 29:39.799 [SPEAKER_02]: They're doing it as they are coming back to the states. 29:40.019 --> 29:48.062 [SPEAKER_02]: That week is the week that they kick off their, if I think their second leg of the North American tour, when they're going to be like in the North East. 29:48.582 --> 29:52.343 [SPEAKER_02]: So it'll kind of go along with now they're touring back here. 29:52.363 --> 29:54.384 [SPEAKER_02]: They're going to have like hype for being on the tour. 29:54.604 --> 29:58.585 [SPEAKER_02]: And the song will also be playing on the radio at the same time. 29:59.526 --> 29:59.766 [SPEAKER_02]: Wow. 30:00.286 --> 30:02.487 [SPEAKER_02]: And it's right after them being at the World Cup, too. 30:02.627 --> 30:05.968 [SPEAKER_02]: So they'll get more visibility out the World Cup and yeah. 30:06.968 --> 30:07.729 [SPEAKER_02]: That's why it was hoping. 30:07.749 --> 30:09.970 [SPEAKER_01]: When you put it that way, it seems very strategic. 30:10.230 --> 30:11.991 [SPEAKER_02]: And I think it's super strategic. 30:12.091 --> 30:16.614 [SPEAKER_02]: And I hope that they drop a music video because then we can even promote it. 30:16.954 --> 30:21.777 [SPEAKER_02]: Like, I feel like a music video is gonna promote it even more than like a real, you know? 30:22.137 --> 30:23.118 [SPEAKER_02]: Right, right. 30:23.278 --> 30:46.388 [SPEAKER_02]: But an artsy real is always super fun to look at and kind of like tear apart and maybe that gets us back into like the bantan universe and all of their like alternate universe story like maybe they're gonna continue with it because that Mary go around music video was definitely referencing some of those things that felt like and a little bit more out there in artsy so 30:47.348 --> 31:13.114 [SPEAKER_01]: yeah well the bass on just these negative films that we have that they released it does look artsy like it just it's giving blood sweat and tears it's giving fake love it does it it's angsty already like I can get past this like jungle with like it looks like wet hair in the mirror in the mirror yes it's reminding me of like Jimin you know during like yeah 31:14.094 --> 31:15.256 [SPEAKER_02]: I don't know what song. 31:15.296 --> 31:18.239 [SPEAKER_02]: The one that he's in the bathtub, why can't I think of the name of it right now? 31:18.799 --> 31:30.932 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, it's very much giving me like wings, blood, sweat, and tears type of vibe, especially the one where it looks like Taehyung sitting at a table outside and there's a tree like all above him and surrounding him and 31:31.613 --> 31:35.956 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, so I just have to say I need you just so yes, I need you That's what you think it is. 31:36.096 --> 31:37.157 [SPEAKER_01]: All right, maybe run. 31:37.197 --> 31:37.998 [SPEAKER_01]: It's one of the two. 31:38.378 --> 31:41.560 [SPEAKER_02]: It's one of those It's so gonna change the world when a picture it's I need you. 31:41.660 --> 31:42.401 [SPEAKER_02]: It's a choice. 31:42.481 --> 31:55.110 [SPEAKER_01]: It's all the matters Going back to the BTS universe like the one below Taeyang sitting at like the table outside underneath the tree the one below that I'm pretty sure is Jen and he's waning against something And it looks like he's looking at a pocket watch. 31:55.250 --> 31:58.773 [SPEAKER_02]: Oh my god, it does look like he's looking at a pocket watch 31:59.329 --> 32:00.311 [SPEAKER_02]: What the fuck? 32:00.531 --> 32:02.194
