Namjoon being so open about the fact that depression doesn't just leave you, is such a vulnerable thing to admit. There is no cure. There is treatment but no cure. You'll have it forever and it will be hard. But life is worth living anyway. Thank you Namjoon, for being my light!

“I greet you from the other side of sorrow and despair with a love so vast and shattered it will reach you everywhere.” --Leonard Cohen

“Yeah, I'm lost, can I come over?”

It's hard to overstate how comforting it is to hear Namjoon express this truth: the fight with our demons may never end. (Yes, love, forever is too long!)

AND.

Life is fun.

These things can coexist.

Life goes on.

Sometimes I can’t sleep. But do you want to die? No. I try to love the life. Taking walks, good friends, drinks, music, [this] interview. I’m still fighting the demons, and I think maybe it could be forever, and forever is too long, like I said. But I just wanna say one thing: Simply, in short, I think life is fun … not because I’m [in] BTS or I’m a star in the spotlight. I think, just — life is fun and living is better.

well this made me sob. I love you so much joonie. These words are huge to so many people (including me)

🐨 And just saying like, brother, please, get your slides, you know, indoors... because, you know, I know you guys go to the hotel bed with your shoes on and that's so dirty [laughs]

Namjoon roasting people who wear shoes indoors 🔥

BTS telling everyone they put personal thought and care into everything we see from them. Truly can't say TRUST US any louder 🙏

when you can't rap with a straight face because your members keep yelling your name

He radiates sweet happiness. 😄

How I'm hearing Arirang: the first 6 songs are anger, defiance, pushback, fire, directed outward.

No. 29 is a moment to pause. Take cleansing breaths.

Swim takes us deeper and keeps us moving.

The last 7 are maybe from a more intimate place: loss, longing, pain, commitment.

What sane person could live in this world and not be crazy?

Help That Hurts: The Creativity Cost of Generative AI Ideation in Music Composition no It is a working paper 36 Pages Posted: Rahul Telang Carnegie Mellon University - H. John Heinz III School of Public Policy and Management Jose Eduardo Oros Carnegie Mellon University - Heinz College of Information Systems and Public Policy Richard Randall Carnegie Mellon University - Carnegie Mellon University in Qatar Date Written: March 27, 2026

Abstract Generative Al is transforming creative industries, particularly music, and raising questions about artistic practice and creator roles. Text-to-music systems can produce full songs from prompts, yet their effect on human creativity and quality is unclear. This paper analyzes how Al assistance shapes the creative process and outcomes in music. We conduct a randomized controlled trial with musically trained individuals who compose an original 15-second piano melody, assigning them to either an Al-ideation group or a no-Al control. External evaluators of varied musical experience rate each melody on perceived creativity. On average, we find that listeners rate the melodies generated under the treatment condition as less creative. Furthermore, access to the Al changes stylistic choices, which are perceived as less creative by evaluators. Suggested Citation > Show Contact Information >

But we're all walking in the night, now, on ground we don't know. When the day comes we may know where we are, or we may not.

Hooligan MV screenshot - Namjoon at the mic, the mic stand wrapped in white cords that look like tree roots coming down the cement steps, along with silver claws/hands. A bunch of dancers in all black with the covered Hooligan masks dance behind him.

Remember when he talked about how in your 20s, you have thoughts that are like branches, then by your 30s and 40s, you become a beautiful tree? Now him at the mic, unyielding, knowing that what he says grows roots in the industry despite hands trying to get him. He's grounded with deep roots~ namu 🌳

Collage of 4 pictures. 2 of Soojoon at the top and 2 of Sohyun bottom Top Left: A dramatic, extreme close-up of a person's eye. The focus is intense, with long, light-colored hair partially veiling the face. The lighting creates a heavy shadow, highlighting a bold, dark eyeliner look. ​Top Right: A classic studio portrait of a model with bleached hair. They are wearing a dark, long-sleeved top and a watch, with their hands held elegantly near their chest. The lighting is soft but directional, highlighting their bone structure against a neutral gray background. ​Bottom Left: A wide, cinematic shot set in what appears to be a brutalist or industrial ruin. A figure stands with their back to the camera, wearing thigh-high boots and holding two swords (katanas) out to their sides. Mist or smoke swirls at their feet, adding to the dramatic, action-oriented feel. ​Bottom Right: A close-up portrait of a woman with dark hair. A blade—likely a sword—is positioned diagonally in the foreground, partially obscuring the lower half of the frame. Her expression is calm and piercing, creating a "warrior-chic" vibe that mirrors the bottom-left image. ​Overall Aesthetic ​The collage utilizes black and white photography to unify the different scenes. It bridges the gap between high-fashion editorial and action-cinema, playing with themes of strength, mystery, and sharp visual lines.

If you want to learn about DJ Screw, the black artist that invented the "chopped and screwed" effect mentioned in Hooligan, there's a nice video here of his cousin talking about him:

여백의 미 the beauty of empty space: This is the most crucial concept in Korean traditional art and modern minimalism. It refers to the beauty found not in what is painted, but in the unpainted space left behind. It suggests that emptiness allows room for imagination and resonance.

~still thinking about how N°29 resonate and flow so beautifully into Swim~
