Yoongi's letters through the years. A very touchy thread.
This is something he wrote one month after debut.
On the 1st anniversary from debut he wrote this to Army
He used to write to us on his birthday things like this one. A baby.
In 2014 for a fanmeeting Yoongi prepared 300 handwritten letters for ARMYs bc it was HIS bday. he even apologized to the other ARMYs who did not receive one bc he did not expect that more than 300 will attend. baby was so shy to tell army he has a gift for them:(
Iin 2015 he wrote about his college entrance exam experience. A very long thread!
"Hello this is Suga. Today is the day before the 2015 college entrance exam. It makes me think about the day before I did my college entrance exam." https://twitter.com/BTS_twt/status/664373682395987969
"Hello this is Suga. Today is the day before the 2015 college entrance exam. It makes me think about the day before I did my college entrance exam." https://twitter.com/BTS_twt/status/664373682395987969
"It was a few days after exactly a year that I came up to Seoul from Daegu and since I was living separately from my parents, there was no one to pack my lunchbox for me haha" https://twitter.com/BTS_twt/status/664374408216113152
"So I went to sleep thinking to myself that before going to the college entrance exam location, I should buy kimbab but I couldn’t sleep. I was thinking that I was an exam taker who drifted away from studying when I came up to Seoul." https://twitter.com/BTS_twt/status/664375209135222784
"back then i was a mess of an exam candidate haha. I couldn’t fall asleep so I tossed and turned in bed for a few hours but I heard cluttering noises coming from the outside and so I thought ‘ah, (members) they’re packing my lunchbox for me’. https://twitter.com/BTS_twt/status/664376399508062209
"but I stayed awake for a long time and knew that they were packing my lunchbox as well but I couldn’t go out of the door or go to the bathroom. I just pretended I was sleeping and now and then, they’d come in and check as well to see if I was awake haha" https://twitter.com/BTS_twt/status/664378264492765184
"because among the members, I was the first to take the college entrance exams so the kids seemed nervous as well, they were making a bigger deal about it more than I was keke. To be honest, it was hard to pretend I didn’t know." https://twitter.com/BTS_twt/status/664381195325542400
"anyways, so I receive the lunchbox, and was leaving and the donsaengs told me ‘hwaiting’ and do well on the exam. at the time, I was the eldest hyung in the dorm so they were all dongsaengs. (Sorry, I made a typo i was in the bath.)" https://twitter.com/BTS_twt/status/664381195325542400
"early in the morning I went to the location of college entrance exam and was so nervous for no reason, the location was at a school fortunately beside my highschool. I wrapped my scarf around my neck the grey one I wore a lot in the early days of debut" https://twitter.com/BTS_twt/status/664382178717929472
"my mum bought it for me before I came to Seoul . I went to the college entrance exam location, passing Garosugil. Time went by extremely slowly like slow motion. Ever since I started going to the studio at 17, I didnt care much abt it but i was nervous." https://twitter.com/BTS_twt/status/664383354897174529
If even i was that nervous how you would be? Everyone, when you go into the college entrance exam location, they give you green tea chocolate, candy so I asked if they could give me another one before I went in. Everyone, ask for one more before going in. https://twitter.com/BTS_twt/status/664384342232199169
"typos are no joke. Even though I’m using a waterproof bag, there is steam , i press this and that also gets pressed. Anyways, the dongsaengs earnestly asked me to make sure to open my lunchbox at lunch time so until then i didn’t open it and waited but" https://twitter.com/BTS_twt/status/664385310747299840
it was cooked chicken breast with rice, vienna sausages and rolled omelettes. As trainees we didnt have money. It was made by ingredients available in the dorm. I ate alone really deliciously. But next to the lunchbox there were several sheets of A4 paper" https://twitter.com/BTS_twt/status/664386139369836544
"i thought ‘what is this’ so I looked at it n it was a letter. They didn’t have money to buy letter paper as well so they wrote it on A4 paper around the dorm. Honestly, I was touched. I’m not crying, really. I finished the exam & read the letter again" https://twitter.com/BTS_twt/status/664387631917109248
"other kids who finished the college entrance exam were picked up by their parents/friends gathered after it finished to discuss where to go. I wrapped my grey scarf around my neck walking alone it gave me the feeling i was the only one in black n white" https://twitter.com/BTS_twt/status/664388808566112257
on my way back thousands of emotions sprung from me 'my 12 years of school life has finally finished?'It must be nice for them to be able to do things with friends.I have to go practice though.I also want to eat with my parents.I had these kind of thoughts https://twitter.com/BTS_twt/status/664389281092251649
"i walked back home and the dongsaengs asked me how the exam was. I said, “How could I do well..I just stared at the paper.” I couldn’t sleep that night, either. I was filled with strange emotions and emptiness and had so many things going on my mind." https://twitter.com/BTS_twt/status/664390569716613120
"i was like that, no different from you guys . who wasnt like that at some point? so don’t be nervous don't tremble and calmly take the exam. dont panic If you don’t know the answer or just choose the number 3. if you were to ask me what i remember from" https://twitter.com/BTS_twt/status/664391743001890816
"my days being a student at school, I would say I really don’t remember. even more, my life as a student after I turn 18. from when I was 18 I wasn’t a 2nd or 3rd grade high schooler, I was a 1 year 2 year trainee. I couldn’t even go on school trips." https://twitter.com/BTS_twt/status/664392691988361216
after the exam, go play as much as you want. whether you do well or not, you deserve that time for competing for 12 long years. don’t drink alcohol since you are still underage. do it after you turn 20. I had to practice after the exam then ate i’m serious https://twitter.com/BTS_twt/status/664394440413343744
i turned 20 after a few days after i took the exams while in a blank mental state. my 1st January as a 20 year old wasn’t drinking or clubbing, it was going to Busan with my family. there wasn’t much besides the sea. It felt like I was exiled from society https://twitter.com/BTS_twt/status/664396156563099648
and I thought that when I turn 20 my life will turn into a ‘bbyong’ spectacular but I was wrong. the college exam and turning 20 were not that big of a deal. so don’t be nervous, it’s really nothing. if you don’t know any of the short-answer math questions https://twitter.com/BTS_twt/status/664397200168849409
it is really not a big deal. don’t freak out or get nervous. just do the best of your ability. nothing more or nothing less. If your parents ask you to give you a ride to the exams venue, be polite n say yes. don’t be mean to them or annoyed for no reason https://twitter.com/BTS_twt/status/664399178735312896
Its OK to mess up but while you are at it, do well. hope everyone does well on the 2016 CSAT exam. dont cry if you get your answers wrong. stay focused when you are doing it. you should go drink milk n eat lettuce now so you can fall asleep by 11pm or 12am https://twitter.com/BTS_twt/status/664400418487730176
"Good night and do well in your exams, fighting, byebye" https://twitter.com/BTS_twt/status/664401013785296900
A long one, but it definitelly worth to read it. he has a very unique form to express himself and share his story, always wanting to give comfort to others.
His letter to seokjin in bon voyage :(
in november 2016 he wrote this to us.
his little message in winter package 2020
January 2016 yoongi put up one of the most open heart letters out to ARMY, when he wasn’t feeling well and the concert in Japan was cancelled.
Im going to update this thread all the time i found something to post here. i read every single one of the letters i found and it gives me a lot of happiness. it's beautiful the way you can easily find confort in him, his words and music. perhaps i cry.
