Inner Child: The Story of Kim Taehyung

I'm thinking of this song once again and all that it says, all that it gives me, all that it is asking of me. I'm thinking of the boy that once was, I'm thinking of the man I know now. And I'm thinking of love. Such, such love. +
The us of that time, we had it tough, says Taehyung. The years training as a rookie, the earlier days after debut, the uncertainty, the newness of everything. He's talking to that young boy who had no idea..... He had no idea how far he would come. +
"You of that time didn't believe in galaxies
But I saw it, a silver galaxy..."

Would he have known? How far he would come? That the galaxies he didn't believe in, that he couldn't see, would become all his? +

(watch the video till the end)
So change here is a promise. As you sing this with him tomorrow, remember you are promising this change to yourself to. You'll make it. Things might be hard now, but as you as well run after an endless light, you'll come through. We all do. We change. We grow. +
"Since the me of today is okay" He has often spoken of how he has matured over the years and how he loves who he is right now*. So change here has a second meaning too. The first one was about life. Difficult times might not always remain. But the second meaning is about us too.+
As we go through life, we all change. Some parts of us are left behind and some survive as we survive life. However, I've never seen laughter and joy leave Taehyung. Can we ever truly leave that child behind? Sometimes looking at him, I'm not sure it's ever fully possible.+
"The lights that illuminated your eyes are the me from now"

(tears) You're my boy. You're still my boy. As I change, as life happens, I'm still you, the lights in your eyes back then were me, look at me, I made it, I'm here, you will always be here too, you will always remain.+
"This is the first time Taehyung’s solo song has a fanchant. This is the first time an arena will sing back to him." (thetaetopic)

Tomorrow we'll sing along to Taehyung and sing to him: "you're my boy, my boy, my boy" You always were. You still are. You always will be.+
As fans sing along to Taehyung tomorrow and tell him "you're my boy", you're also singing for yourselves, in love, for who you are right now, and who you are on the road to becoming. You'll make it too. And, just like him, you'd be so, so wonderful! ♥️
