Just like BTS: ARMY doesn't want to set a poor example for others, ARMY does not want to do anything that would embarrass the members, ARMY spreads love, acceptance and respect, and ARMY wants to protect the members and each other so that we can all be together for a long long time. I've already resolved that should I be blessed enough to buy tickets to their next concert, if I end up with extras, I will not scalp them for profit (regardless of the going rate). I wish to go with real ARMY.
Is funny maybe you don’t realized that your reactions have evolve, see your first reactions (you were very serious and intimidating) now you have become a soft cool dude who enjoy and share joy.
I feel the same as you. Ever since I found out about BTS and ARMY, I've become a better person. I regularly work out, I organize charity in my bubble, do my job more thoroughly, I became more lenient towards others and also myself and I feel like I'm truly living with a full and happy heart most days now. It's like there's a whole new sense of confidence because I got that. It's cool to be kind and to spread love instead of hate. That's the biggest aspect of ARMY. And I think there will come a time, when you'll feel a part of it, too. Ironically, for me that happened, when I went to my first ARMY meeting. It was such an amazing experience to discuss BTS with someone else who's just as passionate about them as me. And all of us clicked right away, even though some of us were 14 and the oldest one 72. It was really special. I really hope for you to be able to travel somewhere to see them live or that maybe you'll find other ARMYs close to you, soon. Until then, you already have many friends on the internet who appreciate and share your thoughts. 💜
Advice for finding ARMY locally... wear BTS t-shirts when you go to the grocery, to the mall, to the gym, the park... wherever. I had to do this (started in 2015) to find local kpop fans. I've found about 40 people (ages 14 up to 65) who are not all ARMY, but who cares? We get together for comeback parties and have a good time.
The fact that you see people calling themselves fans of a BTS member or all members and even calling themselves ARMY but then writing hate about one of the members or downplaying how good all their relationships are or trying to ruin members releases etc is so backwards. Jin, Suga, j-hope, RM, Jimin, V and JK would never ever want a fan that is disrespectful against another member. There are some really well known loud toxic fans like one here on YT that's username is something like "0_0TK" that constantly only mentions JK and Tae (which would be ok) but then hate on Jimin and also hate on his relationship with other members and they think of themselves as a fan of JK and Tae. Both JK and Tae would be so disgusted and ashamed of that person and so would all the other embers but people like that claiming to be fans is so ridiculous. I can have for example JK as a bias but with that I know him well enough to respect the ones he love, which is all the members. And I love seeing him with Tae, Jimin, j-hope, Jin, RM and Yoongi and all their different dynamics and would never ever downplay the relationships he has with them and call some fake etc. And I would never compare and try to ruin another members release to try to benefit JK. And I would never try and get people new to BTS to like him better than the rest or not give all credit. Same with people hating on another member of BTS or another fandom because someone came after and wrote/said bad things about their BTS bias or all of BTS is so wrong and not ARMY behaviour. It's not the other members fault they have a toxic fan or the other group falt that some people in their fandom hate BTS and says bad things. As fans and army we can go after and shut down hate but we do not write bad things about other artists as revenge. For example lots of BP fans are super hateful toward BTS and specific members but I would not hate on BP or the members of BP because of that. I don't listen to BP, there have been things I've seen BP members say and do that I really didn't like but I would not go after them as revenge for their deranged fans. Also by going after a member or group as revenge that will just make immature, toxic and stupid people from that fandom do the same toward BTS and the hate will just grow and the toxic immature people on both sides will just become louder and louder. I don't get how people don't realize that. ARMY just shut down, report the haters but do not go after the artists or spread hate.
I have a hard time understanding how they can do that. The members are not going to be "proud" of them for saying hurtful things about the other members that they have lived and worked with for the last decade. We DO NOT know their private lives much as we like to think we do. That is not our concern so I truly wish "fans" would just stop it.
I live very far away from BTS, and I plan to visit Korea. I love these guys and I am a fan. I work hard to never do anything to bother them, or have anyone think I have anything but the utmost love and respect for BTS and Army. This includes comments, posts, as well as events I attend. Love does that for me, and all Armies❤
Wanting to be kinder and support them is already a fantastic start, so there's no need to worry about being a "faker ARMY"! there is not such thing 😄It’s all about the love we share for them. focusing on defending against haters and toxic people pretending to be ARMY. Encouraging everyone to respect each other's journey and setting a good example as part of this fandom is what truly matters. We're all in this together! 💜
I've been ARMY since 2018. I have donated to several organizations, bought merchandise and given it to ARMY fans, and I post as often as I can be cause ARMY has BTS back period. What they say goes!💜💜💜
I have said it before and imma say it again. Thank you Rex for keep posting videos of BTS. I know you got way less views than you initially was but you still keep posting to the point I can’t keep up your postings 😂 but i still watched. So thank you 💜💜
Remember to turn on CC for her videos. She speaks so quietly and often don't enunciate words that strongly so it can be a bit hard to hear as it is but with you reacting and talking and the volume of your video etc. it can get even harder to hear and follow along. I think she even has it big on the screen in the beginning of all her videos reminding you to turn on the CC.
Army are generous and very protective of the BTS members. It was not only Jin's enlistment where Army did not show up at the ceremony. They did not show up for Hobi nor did they show up for Namjoon, Tae, Jimin and Jungkook. You will also find that Army respects the boys' privacy so if someone on social media posts a picture of the boys that are deemed personal and should not have been circulated, many Army will make sure that the pictures are taken down. But not to say that all Army have that kind of mentality. Of course there are still some toxic Army, but really only will make up a very, very small part of the Army. But I agree, those people are not real Army but trolls.
The toxic ones aren't ARMY, they might call themselves ARMY but they are not, they are just toxic fans. They have completely missed what ARMY is and stands for.
I agree wear a BTS tee shirt you may be surprised when ARMY meet each other it’s like finding a lost friend. At work I have decorated my water bottle with stickers and have found co workers that work with me. Once at post office I wore my Butter tee shirt and bucket hat and a woman in front of me asked why I was wearing something that said Butter I explained that it was a BTS song I explained it’s a SK band she said I got to listen so right there in post office line she played Butter she loved it and 2 more people asked about the song and she told them it’s BTS. She then listened to Fake Love and 3 people became fans and no one complained about the music being played.
You have us now, though... I get what it's like not having a friend group that also are Army (some friends look down on me a bit I feel like) but any time I go to an event, I feel *welcomed* and part of the group. I love Armies 😊💜
Every ARMY that does not engage in toxic behavior is a true ARMY. You do not have to be a die-hard fan and participate in every ARMY/BTS event and its rules. If you just want to chill with their music and content, and occasionally engage with either ARMY's, you are still doing your part as an ARMY💜 You representing ARMY that way is already good enough. Some do more, some have the money to represent ARMY/BTS in a luxurious light, and some have the time/effort/heart to represent ARMY in a kind and generous way. And some just chill an represent ARMY as more laid back than what the stereotype wants people to think of us. I like them all💜
Which is quite risky cause I think we are a bit lenient on UA-camrs we send gifts to, due to the really sketchy ones that use bts and army for money and subs.

Even media appreciate army ,that this is the only fandom who listen to their artist and follow their words, proud to be an army 💜💜💜
A big factor of the fandom being considerate and organized is the core of mature women. It's not the only factor but a big one.
I feel the same as you. Ever since I found out about BTS and ARMY, I've become a better person. I regularly work out, I organize charity in my bubble, do my job more thoroughly, I became more lenient towards others and also myself and I feel like I'm truly living with a full and happy heart most days now.

Rex needs to definitely go to BTS concert in 2025 💜💜

ARMY is definitely generous with the things and packages they send to other ARMY UA-camrs. I love this fandom ❤❤❤❤
this video always makes me cry.. im so proud of being an army. BTS saved my life and now i live every day trying to be a better person

Also - live anywhere you want. We are all Armies together. It's good you found Boracity. There are many many awesome Armies!
I luv BTS i cant afford a membership but my ❤ is a ARMY FAN of BTS.
Indeed! They follow thier singer because they are kind.
I have said it before and imma say it again. Thank you Rex for keep posting videos of BTS. I know you got way less views than you initially was but you still keep posting to the point I can’t keep up your postings 😂 but i still watched. So thank you 💜💜

Army like to see themselves different from other k-pop fandom to be the Army's are represented..
You have us now, though... I get what it's like not having a friend group that also are Army (some friends look down on me a bit I feel like) but any time I go to an event, I feel *welcomed* and part of the group. I love Armies 😊💜

And some just chill an represent ARMY as more laid back than what the stereotype wants people to think of us. I like them all💜
Army by heart needs to mature in the fandom to become a grown-up Army but the seed was already buried so, don't be harsh with yourself.
#Borahae💜
Rex.. do you know that bts have content.. summer package and winter package.. (2015-2021)
I love your reaction vedio so much 💜️💜️ . You really deserve a concert ticket in 2025
bro react on why bts army doesn't like kpopp plzzzzzzzz
Thank you Rex for reacting to the video I suggested 💜
Armys also sends a lot of gifts to youtubers who are armys...
Which is quite risky cause I think we are a bit lenient on UA-camrs we send gifts to, due to the really sketchy ones that use bts and army for money and subs.
