Hmmm.... Since it's for the boys and this would be a once in a lifetime opportunity I wouldn't mind spending quite a bit if I had to. So the stuff I'm thinking about is varying priceranges.

Seokjin + Hoseok: This!
They are packing cubes. Giving the same gift to 2 members is lame, I know. But while these would be great for all the boys. I deffinitely think 2Seok would use them a lot and appreciate them. It would honestly be great for all the boys since they travel so much. It's not only great for organising but also compressing so you can pack more and keep your clothes wrinkle free. These boys love their clothes so keeping everything neat, wrinke-free and organised in their bags seems like it'd be useful.

Yoongi: I think he's not the type to splurge on himself too much and would like practical gifts. So a fancy but practical product would be good. Like an electric blanket, fancy set of superwarm and soft sheets(lifechanger) or a towelwarmer since he likes baths and there's nothing better than a warm set of towels after a bath.

Namjoon: There are these pocket sized trackers that you can use with app. They're pretty pricey. But I'd get him 10. One for his phone, one for his keys, one for his wallet, one for his passport and 6 for him to lose XD There are also these small charger cables that are also keychains. Since I'm sure he'd lose his charger as well, I'd get a couple of those too.

Jimin: Traveler Jewelery box. To me Jimin seems to be one of the members who enjoys jewelery the most. He's also pretty bad at losing things. So I'd get him a traveler jewelery box to keep track of all his bling while he's abroad.

Taehyung: 20 Outfits for Yeontan. I know he has a lot of fur so he doesn't need it and he'd probably hate it too. But please! All I need in my life is one picture of Yeontan in a little bowtie TT.TT Please fashionista V, unleash your love of ties on him.

Jk: One of these! It's basically a clip to attach your camera to your belt/bag/bagstrap/etc. It keeps your camera secure even when hiking/cycling/playing etc and is quicker and less clunky than a camera bag. I think he'd have a lot of fun playing with a drone too but I doubt he'd have many opportunities to use it since it's hard to carry around.

There's also some stuff in general I feel like they should have as a group... Like a portable luggage scale, international power adaptor(they probably have this but from my experience... You can never have enough), phone charger keychains, mini travelsized hairdryer, microfiber towels, This infinity mug

It could help you to look into conflict resolution techniques. I found a [page] that can give you a good start on the basics. You can read more on certain topics by googling it. Due to how people react differently based on their personalities, it can help you ascertain which approach you may use when tackling issues in regards to your best friend. Think about what you want to say and how to say it. Draw boundaries and though it may seem tempting, try not to antagonize her even if she antagonizes you. Don't go into a confrontation with fuel. Prepare for any reactions she might have based on the guide I linked. Also I enjoyed this useful [book] as it goes indepth and gives examples.

Personally I had a former friend of 8 years who she thought she could say anything to me and treat me rudely because she believed our long friendship was unbreakable - your best friend might be thinking the same way. My former friend was extremely insecure, said very disrespectful things about sensitive topics, and to a point she was narcissistic - she broke my trust in her. I was younger and knew nothing about conflict resolution so I ex-communicated her and our friend group. Though it broke my heart to do so, it's how I felt I needed to protect myself. That was a drastic action I did but I still don't regret it.

In my experiences now, my childhood best friend has at one point said it was weird that I liked BTS (her reservation was that they're collectively younger than us), but that was a very long time ago and hasn't said anything negative since. She cares more about me as a person than my music tastes. Everyone who I'm currently close now as well have the same sentiments and only say nice things about BTS because they know I am a fan. If they say anything negative, it's usually lightly teasing rather than being malicious.

So people who care about you will not try to tear you down and if your friend really respects you and cares for you, she will reconsider her actions should you bring it up to her. If not... well, I think you would already know how she sees you as a person. I hope she will eventually treat you better and consider your feelings more.

  ^Note: ^Reddit, ^Twitter ^and ^Discord ^are ^all ^struggling ^so ^updates ^might ^be ^slow.

Also have nothing to add here, since I have no idea what they use, but just wanted to say that I've switched over to a Korean skincare-based regimen, and my skin looks glowy and awesome every day! I won't go into everything I now use, but I will say that I love double cleansing (I was using coconut oil as a first cleanser even before I ever heard about proper double cleansing, but at KCON NY Charlotte Cho told me to stop doing that, and who am I to deny that goddess anything??) and essences! I also use moisturizer and sunscreen every single day when I didn't before. And eye cream! I think the fine lines and dark circles under my eyes have definitely improved, and I don't look quite so tired anymore. I just massage all this stuff into my face, chanting "No wrinkles, no wrinkles, no wrinkles"...I think it's working, lol.

My favorite products are Neogen's Real Flower Cleansing Water in Calendula- I use this in place of traditional astringent toner after washing my face, Son & Park Beauty Water- I quite literally slap this on after the toner. I guess it's overkill, but I don't care- I like the way it smells and I personally think it tightens my pores! It's hard to say because I switched my entire regimen at one time- something I don't recommend doing at all (I kinda lost it after meeting Charlotte in person at KCON and I dropped a shit ton of money on her site)- so it's hard to say that this has made all the difference, but I ran out of this Missha First Treatment Essence Mist about a month ago, and I really do think I can see the difference. I need this in my life...I can't wait to order more!
I'm also all about snails, so this CosRX Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence is super awesome and hydrating. During the hottest days of summer I would just put this on in lieu of moisturizer, and it was good enough. It makes my skin feel bouncy, and I love it.

Alright! That was fun- I really wasn't a skincare junkie before kpop...I was more into makeup. Now I realize that with excellent skin, I don't need to be as obsessed with covering up as much as I was before :)

I haven’t watched the episode yet so I don’t know if that’s what you mean when you say “photo printer” but I just wanted to say that I got gifted the “Polaroid mobile mini printer” for my birthday two years ago and I love it! You simply connect it to your phone via Bluetooth and it prints pictures in surprisingly high quality :)

Yes, I'd say so. There are so many fussy things with sound quality but for everyday music listening, that'd be the highest quality.

From my experience, I do see a difference with this headphone. I appreciate the quality the most with Serendipity and Pied Piper. With that said I listen to this lossless version very rarely because it's only on the computer at my office lol.

I researched alot on this during the LY tour. The most popular seem to be Etyomotic cause there's cheap but industry grade. Personally however, I use the V-MODA Faders Tuned Metal Earplugs as I have tiny ears & shoving the Etyomotics in felt uncomfortable. The vmodas have different sizes of eartips from XS to L which worked out well for me.

Other than those, just buying Hearos foam earplugs also work well.

Im just going to accept I live in the random thread.


Do you all think we can get BigHit to accept this present ?

Thank you so much! Is this what I’m looking for along with getting the workbook? Also since this is completely self-study, would I need the answer key that is shown below “customers who bought this item also bought”? https://www.amazon.com/GENKI-Integrated-Elementary-Japanese-English/dp/4789014401

The screaming is the most intense I've ever heard in my life. 😂

I have this pair of musician ear plugs that I wear to all the concerts I go to and even though they're really basic they're still great at drowning out the screams while preserving the quality of the music.

I think I honestly would have been really sad without them because when I took them out for a minute I literally could barely hear the music over the screaming in my section.

These are the ones I got from Amazon: Etymotic High Fidelity ear plugs

This is the one we buy!

I got these https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000V9PKZA

is it this one

I bought these Etymotic Research ER20 High-Fidelity Earplugs for a concert recently and they worked great. It was a smaller venue but it really reduced the screaming and still let me hear the singing/talking.

There's a mild Jin Ramen. I think the regular kind is the least spicy of most ramen I've tried so I'm thinking the mild is probably very mild. You can try the Korean instant udon which has no spice but isn't really ramen. Or you can try Korean instant jjajjangmyun. A lot of Koreans eat that on the dramas.

I have seen this instant gomtang but I've never tried so I'm not sure how it is.

Oh sorry, I misunderstood then! I thought you were asking if there was an official shirt like that. Sorry I can't help with quality unofficial stuff... I only bought a jacket and shirt and the shirt was really terrible.

Since the topic has come up before about what books RM has read, I figured I would share every time a new one is revealed. Today he told a fan at a fansign that his current favorite is The Noonday Demon. Here's the description from Amazon:

> The Noonday Demon examines depression in personal, cultural, and scientific terms. Drawing on his own struggles with the illness and interviews with fellow sufferers, doctors and scientists, policymakers and politicians, drug designers and philosophers, Solomon reveals the subtle complexities and sheer agony of the disease. He confronts the challenge of defining the illness and describes the vast range of available medications, the efficacy of alternative treatments, and the impact the malady has had on various demographic populations around the world and throughout history. He also explores the thorny patch of moral and ethical questions posed by emerging biological explanations for mental illness.
