RM posted several excerpts from ‘쓰고 싶다 쓰고 싶지 않다/I want to write, I don’t want to write’, a collection of essays by 9 different authors.

Here, the author talks about how a diet of instant, overwhelming information from their phone has weakened their thinking muscles. And so they have turned to the written word, making new habits, because sometimes people are moved by a desire to do something, but sometimes they are moved by a desire to not do something.

[pann] To you who likes BTS, and to you who hates BTS

kpopduckjill:

[editor’s note: I stumbled across this post when it had just one comment and it really reached out to me. I was hoping more people would see it and upvote, and get to read more about the impact BTS can truly have on someone. I think this post touches on a lot of thoughts I’ve had after I’ve become a BTS fan as well. Hopefully it’ll resonate with you too. The writing style of the author is also much more poetic than your average pann post and I really enjoyed translating it.]

I am a thirty year old—no, in a few days, a woman who will be thirty-one.

And up until the beginning of this year I didn’t know that a singer [artist] called ‘BTS’ existed. After the first year of middle school I lived a life that had no interest in idols.

In high school when my friends would cheer on TVXQ [DBSK] I stared at them pitifully thinking ‘Aigo those immature kids’ and I thought of myself proudly for not being swayed by that sort of atmosphere.

Whenever I listened to music on the top charts on streaming services I would skip any songs that seemed to be sung by idols. Even if I don’t listen to it, it’s obvious [as to what it would sound like]. What sort of expectation would I have of their musical and singing abilities from kids who seems to be printed from a factory. I hated, to the point of having goosebumps, young boys with makeup and color lenses on, acting as if their looks were fatal, so I’ve never even seen anything like a music show.

BTS’ main fanbase has got to be those in their 10’s and 20’s. And I have passed that period as well.

So I saw this advice

Find three hobbies you love: one to make you money, one to keep you in shape, and one to be creative.

I kind of like it.

I used to set up a SINGLE song downloading on limewire OVERNIGHT and bask in the glory of it the next day, now if I click a gif link that doesn’t load within a couple of seconds I cancel it and move on.
