David Schillo is an 8th-grade science teacher who is currently teaching at Wright Middle School in Clarksville, Tennessee, after serving in the Army as a CBRN (Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear) Officer.
As someone that is really passionate about mental health it has been so infuriating today to see the way that some ARMY have reacted to the video.
These men have given their absolute everything in the past 9 years. I cannot even imagine how hard it must have been and what kind of pressure they have been under.
You can see how hard it was for them to do what was right for them and take some time off and apart. To admit that and pursue that. And the way they said it in the video in such a mature and calm and thoughtful way. They cried and reassured us and each other that BTS will be back and that they are thankful for everything. To then have "fans" screaming how unfair it is/omg are they disbanding/why would they do this/they are a group I don't want solo projects.
Like before they are BTS, these idols you fantasize about and praise and obssess over- first and foremost they are human beings. Humans who have sacrificed so much and finally are putting themselves first.
Also for God's saks: if you actually watched the video and listened you would know that they are NOT disbanding, they are taking a break, focusing on solo projects. (READ their words and listen to what they are saying instead of making assumptions).
Yes, I cried and was sad but I am also so immensly happy and proud!!! I hope they rest and I hope they have fun and I hope they do what THEY want without worrying about the world. And when and if they come back (although they promised and they keep their promises!!) we will welcome them with open arms.
So I beg some of you to get a life and then realize if you actually love them you would be happy for them.
Another reminder: learn from their example. Focus on yourself. Take care and rest when you need to. It is okay to do that. I love you. 💜💜💜
The Astronaut, single by Jin
Note: It’s been a long time and here I am, still stuck in ‘The Astronaut’. Gonna share some personal opinion on this and I swear, I’ll shut up.
Rating - 10/10
“A life, a sparkle in your eyes, Heaven coming through, And I love you.”
Where do I even start? I feel like no matter how much I rant, my love for this song can never be expressed in words. The lyrics, the music and the mv, all of these have their own charms. I just absolutely love it.
Let’s start with its lyrics. I love the references of the cosmos used in this song. If Jin was an asteroid drifting all alone, Army was his heaven, a safe place. When Jin is in darkness, Army shines upon him like the Milky way. “You became my universe” is enough to prove how Jin dedicates his life for us and how we have become everything for him. We all know from the previous solo works of Jin that he is someone who constantly doubts himself and it is the love of the Army that brings him back from despair.
Isn’t it amazing how Jin, and all the BTS members in general, show how grateful they are to us? I am also grateful to them for making us feel loved. This song directly touches the heart. It is, in fact, the best kind of love letter one can ever wish for. It is a song that feels too personal. I feel like it was meant for me, as an individual. That’s one of the best achievements of this masterpiece.
The music video is so cute. Jin, representing an alien crashing on earth, who apparently doesn’t have any emotions. The little girl of his neighborhood plays with him often and he unconsciously grows empathy within himself. On the day his spaceship is finally leaving to go back to space, Jin realizes that it is the earth that is his true home and comes back.
Here are a lot of indications. For a start, the little girl represents Armys. If Jin was someone without dreams, the Armys made him want to dream. Just like the little girl helped him with the development of emotions. Again, though unconsciously, when the alien Jin decided to leave for good, he left his helmet with the girl so that she doesn’t hurt herself riding the bike alone without him around. As our Jin was leaving to join the military, he had left his precious song and along with it, a lot of content for the Armys to enjoy in his absence. Even the morse code for ARMY was literally tattooed on his neck in the mv. Just like the alien Jin realizing that the girl was his true home and coming back to her at the end, our Jin also promises us his coming back after serving his time in the military. Hence, I love the music video so much and I keep coming back to it time after time.
I will forever be grateful to Coldplay for accepting Jin’s request and making this song a reality. They are the sweetest souls ever. It shows how a real artist can recognize and appreciate another great artist. I love the bond between Jin and them, especially with Chris. It makes me immensely proud how far Jin has come. While he considered Coldplay as his idol in his youth, he is now collaborating with them side by side. Both of their styles of music are evident in this track. As if two beautiful melodies came together to become a better version of themselves.
I can’t talk about the Astronaut without bringing up the concert in Argentina. Here’s another reason for me to be grateful to Coldplay. They really understood the significance of this song for the Armys as a goodbye gift from Jin and that’s why they decided to have him at their personal concert. I could see the admiration in their eyes when Jin was performing. I also enjoyed the part where Chris opened his arms for Jin to run and embrace him while he sweetly kissed him on the cheek. This interaction was everything. When, both Chris and Jin were singing together to my favorite part and they couldn’t help but laugh in between, we could see Jin’s sparkling eyes so clearly. It shows how overwhelmed he was with emotion. I won’t lie about crying to that part myself.
Finally, the “I love you” part deserves its own paragraph. Would you think that it wasn’t intentional of Jin to finish his last live performance for the Armys by saying that he loves us? I think not. Jin is a genius and an absolute sweetheart for that. The reactions of the Armys at the concert was genuine. They looked so happy and sad at the same time. And I love you too, my Jinnie.
I am fully absorbed in this piece of art. It has become a part of me and I am totally obsessed with it now. I thank you, Jin, for making me feel this way. This work of yours is going to live in my heart rent free for the rest of my life.
Little Things Matter
I know, BTS did honorable things by which they could be remembered in history. But have you noticed the small things (which are not really small if you think about it) that could actually show the kind of persons they really are?
Including sign language as a part of the choreography
Kneeling down while the youngest helps to tie the shoe lace
Recommending a feminist book for which many female idols had received hatred before
Doing every little action the fans request on v live to make them happy
Letting another artist stay in the middle of their performance even though she was okay to step aside
Letting the camera-people have a bite from their food
Picking up an army bomb from the stage and returning it to the fan
Buying slushies/ice creams for all the staffs because it’s crazy hot outside
Calling the fans his hope and vice versa
Helping the staffs to fix the stage lights/cleaning up with them
Requesting the food delivery man to drive safely due to the heavy rain and not to worry about being late
And I can go on and on...
My mental health is hanging by a thread where I can spend the whole day listening to Taehyung singing "If we live fast let us die young"...
