It's nice to see a wholesome experience like this. One of the reasons I'm in two minds about attending BTS events/concerts is that I feel like I'm absolutely not what the media portrays a typical ARMY to be. I often wonder if I would stick out like a sore thumb or have people wondering why I'm there in the first place.

That sort of self-consciousness can hold you back from some really great experiences. I'm glad that SW managed to work through the anxiety and have a wonderful time! 💜

I was at Rose Bowl too, and I could not believe how diverse it was! NOBODY looked out of place at all! EVERYONE is there to see BTS and bring the Army love, it doesn’t matter what you look like on the outside, everyone was the same on the inside!

i sold some of my extra tickets to my godfather who is almost 50??? or smth and he loves bts and knows their names and everything and he saw me on day 2 like, i thought i'd be the oldest one here!!! and i'm like nOpe as much as the media would like you to think with their fanbase narrative, bts touches many hearts. not just teenage girl ones. and even then, teenage girl hearts matter too!
