The Brevet de Technicien Supérieur, is a technology diploma of higher education in France. It would be like going to college in the UK.


So, when I saw a video titled: BTS, I just laughed.

I was confused as to why this name out of all the names in the entire universe.

Intrigued I clicked on the video being recommended to me: Blood, Sweat and Tears”.

What I was witnessing just confirmed my choice to close this K-Pop chapter forever.


But the name BTS...I really wanted to know just why? Like why?


So, I asked another friend of mine: Wikipedia.

Bulletproof Boys...


I laughed harder until I read that their goal was to speak against the diverse oppression faced by the youth...Oh.


That’s all I needed to read.


Even my one pound they could have taken it.

Then I thought: “Let me get to know at least their names” ...


Bruh


Once, you’ve decided to go as far as knowing the names of the members, that is it. You’re doomed.

  • Their goal of speaking against oppression was a +10,000 pts for me.

  • Easy names to remember +1pt.

  • Personalities.........+1pt.

  • Content...+0.9pt.

  • Fan-made covers, memes, and documentaries +1pt.

  • Things that could not be unseen -10,003.9.

As before, although I enjoyed this new discovery for like another week, the time had finally come to close this chapter and move on to other things...Like living my life.


Unlike any other songs I had listened to or any singers or groups I had followed in the past, it seemed like I could not stop watching or listening to their content despite knowing why I should stop.


Something was not right.

 

Someone took the pen away from me and was not ready to give it back.

This little trip of three weeks had created a doorway into my life for things to flood in. Which included physical, emotional, mental and spiritual attacks.
