190424 Kim Taehyung: a thread recounting the events of that historical day.

It was an unseasonably warm Spring afternoon in late April, 2019. The world was still reeling from BTS’s new smash hit single, Boy With Luv. For many months, Taehyung stans had been losing their minds over Blueberry Boi Taehyung™.

But that was all to change on this very day.

Everything seemed normal on the eve of the Fact Music Awards. And then supster boy group BTS arrived.

When Kim Taehyung rounded the corner, there was an audible gasp*

*note: I was watching the red carpet through a 144p livestream but I can imagine there was an audible gasp

Here is footage from that historical moment, edited by legendary army editor ggukreum. This clip has amassed over 1.1 million views. https://twitter.com/ggukreum_twt/status/1121015606063427587

Taehyung’s hair. WAS STARTLINGLY BLACK. DARKER THAN ANY RAVEN EVER ENCOUNTERED. Blueberry Boi Taehyung™ was no more, instead replaced by this MIDNIGHT STALLION.

Mother Nature herself was flustered, noted here by the wind that softly lifted the hair from his face.

The Jaybaek Couture suit with v neck line sported by Mr. Taehyung was not a helpful addition to the ARMY already struggling to cope with this image before them.

Many biases were irreparably fractured on this historic day, but the only noted casualty was the cameraman who took this video. His sacrifice is greatly appreciated.

How Taehyung biases survived that day, it is unclear. Many were treated for shock and have still not fully recovered from this look.

MIDNIGHT STALLION TAEHYUNG.

Many thought perhaps the soft setting sun light was adding to the effect this was having on us.

However, the indoor light somehow AMPLIFIED THE LOOK.

HE SOMEHOW BECAME MORE POWERFUL.

he havin a good time

he sleepy

them WINNERS

TaeTae also made an appearance at the event (ft. rare sighting of bubblegum haired Jimin)

BTS won the Dasaeng and three other awards that night including Best Album award for LY: Answer, the Idol Live Popularity award, and one of the Artist of the Year awards. AND THEY ALL LOOKED UNBELIEVABLE I REALLY CANT BELIEVE THIS DAY EXISTED THANKS FACT AWARDS.

Thread end. Thank you 190424 Taehyung.
