Army, this is a mix of half reality and half fiction and in some cases the way that they have summarised the characters is for the dramatic effect and is again, fictional and isn’t the true story. So don’t worry about it 💜 it’s from bts universe which is again added fiction to make it more entertaining
Its not their story perse, its based on the storyline of the fictional characters they played in the music videos and games and books. But they used their real names as they did in the Notes (books). Completely fictional but im excited and cant wait to watch it.
Their 7 Fates: Chakho names are used in this drama. As per the trailer. Real names - Chakho names Kim Namjoon - Dogeun Kim Seokjin - Hwan Min Yoongi - Cein Jung Hoseok - Hosu Park Jimin - Haru Kim Taehyung - Jooan Jeon Jungkook - Jeha They use the real life surnames but the first names are of 7 fates: Chakho
📍📍📍📍📍 This drama is based on the BTS Universe web toons which was released in 2015 with the album HYYH Or Most Beautiful Moment In life pt.1 and continued until their Love Yourself triology album. This story is purely fictional nothing in this storyline is related to any of the BTS members real life. This was created by creative team of Bighit/Hybe along with BTS members. As you can see in " I Need U MV " they are showing some scenes from the storyline which has nothing to do with songs. FYI : The story is broken into five main parts: school days, the breakup, turmoil, reunion, and the encounters. The school days encompass the happy moments when the BU characters spend time together in their “classroom” (an empty classroom where they meet with each other). The breakup consists of a series of events that cause the group to separate. Turmoil follows the breakup in which each member goes through their own personal struggles. Reunion details how the group comes back together again after several years. The encounters describe the interactions the group has with several unnamed girls. The rest of the story I'm not going to spoil for those who haven't read/seen it. You can read it online in Web toons app Or download from any BU sites. The characters names are BTS members real names. Just an overview of their characters. NAMJOON : Namjoon lives in poverty with his mother, father, and sibling. His father is ill, and no other information about his family is given. During the school days, the other boys see Namjoon as a responsible adult they admire, but he believes that he does not deserve to be perceived in such a way. Namjoon’s family moves away during the breakup period, and not much is said about him during the turmoil phase other than his struggles with poverty. In the reunion period, Namjoon runs into Taehyung in the parking lot of the gas station where he works part time. Namjoon and Taehyung have a close relationship after their reunion, but there are instances where their relationship falters. During the encounters period, Namjoon interacts with a girl he frequently sees on the bus. SEOKJIN : Although BU centers around all seven characters, Seokjin appears to stand out the most. During the school days, the relationship between Seokjin’s father and the school principal causes trouble. The principal pressures Seokjin into tattling on his friends by threatening to tell his father he is a bad student. To keep from angering his father, Seokjin tells the principal about their “classroom”, which ultimately leads to Yoongi getting expelled. This triggers the breakup period, and after Yoongi is expelled, Seokjin transfers schools. Not much is mentioned about Seokjin in the turmoil period besides his thoughts on the group’s misfortunes in life. During the reunion period, there is a confusing diary entry from The Notes that leads readers to believe Jin is stuck in a repeating cycle where only he can save the group from their misfortunes. In the encounters period, Jin finds the diary of a girl that he passes near the train tracks. After looking inside her notebook, he decides to get the girl the flowers that she mentions in her diary called smeraldo. Unfortunately, a car hits the girl before he is able to deliver the smeraldo flowers to her. YOONGI : Yoongi used to love playing the piano because his mother taught him how to play. However, he is traumatized by the time his house burned down with his mother inside and keeps a burnt piano key as a memory. Not much is specified about Yoongi during the school days, except his close relationship with Jungkook. In the breakup period, Yoongi is expelled because he pushes a teacher that physically abused Jungkook. During the turmoil period, Yoongi blames himself for his mother’s death and drinks frequently. In the reunion period, he rekindles his relationship with Jungkook. The girl Yoongi meets during the encounters period tries to get him to quite smoking. HOSEOK : Hoseok was abandoned by his mother at a theme park when he was a young boy, and consequently, he spent ten years at an orphanage. During the school days, Hoseok and Jimin become close friends. Due to Jimin’s medical condition, he is hospitalized, and the two friends separate during the breakup period. The turmoil period presents a depressed Hoseok whose only comfort is dancing. Both The Notes and the music videos also suggest that he has a drug addiction. In the reunion period, Hoseok helps Jimin escape from the hospital, and gets closer to Taehyung. The encounters period details Hoseok’s relationship with a girl he dances with who will soon be leaving to dance with an international team. The girl reminds him of his mother who left him as a child. JIMIN : As a child, Jimin had an unspecified traumatic incident at an arboretum. Due to the incident, he has seizures and is hospitalized frequently. During the school days, he and Hoseok grow close, but due to his medical conditions, he has to leave his friends to stay in a hospital. For Jimin, the turmoil period revolves around him telling his first lie by saying he lost his memory. The reunion period brings him and Hoseok together again, but he struggles to face what happened at the arboretum. In the encounters period, Jimin collides while dancing with Hoseok’s dance partner which sparks his memory of the incident at the arboretum. TAEHYUNG : Taehyung is another character that, like Seokjin, stands out from the rest. He has an alcoholic father that has physically abused him from a young age. During the school days, he hides his bruises well and enjoys his time with his friends. Unfortunately, the breakup period leads him to his turmoil period, which is characterized by disruptive behavior resulting in many encounters with the police. The reunion period leads to a close relationship with Namjoon, who he sees as his brother, and vivid nightmares including Yoongi’s death, a car accident involving Jungkook, and a fight with Namjoon. During this period, Taehyung attacks his father after he witnesses him abusing either his mother or his sister. In The Notes, Hoseok prevents Taehyung from stabbing his father with a broken bottle, but in the music video I NEED YOU, Taehyung is shown stabbing his father multiple times. It is unclear which storyline is real since both scenarios are shown in the short videos posted by BigHit’s youtube channel. ARMY speculates that the discrepancies between the storylines are different outcomes of the repetitive cycle in which Jin is trapped. Taehyung’s nightmares may also represent more alternative endings. During the encounters period, Taehyung meets a girl who follows him at a convenience store, and they vandalize property by spraying graffiti together. JUNGKOOK : Jungkook lives with his mother, stepdad, and stepbrothers. Jungkook’s mother and stepfather ignore him when his stepbrothers beat him up, which leads him to have suicidal thoughts. During the school days, Jungkook feels happy to spend time with his friends in their classroom everyday, and he enjoys listening to Yoongi play the piano. During the break up period, Yoongi gets expelled because he steps in to protect Jungkook after a teacher hits him. Both he and the other boys are unaware that Yoongi’s expulsion was Jin’s fault; therefore, Jungkook feels guilty for getting Yoongi expelled. The turmoil period brings Jungkook to the brink of death when he almost commits suicide by jumping off the top of a construction building. A phone call from Yoongi stops him, which leads to the reunion period where he and Yoongi grow closer. During this period, a car hits Jungkook, and he is hospitalized. In the encounters period, Jungkook meets a girl in the hospital and has repetitive nightmares about Yoongi dying in a fire. If you want to know where to start reading : 1. SAVE ME Web toon : You can read my summary of the entire story here. Contains some cross-references and discussion. Available on Naver. 2. HYYH Notes 1& 2 : The HYYH Notes provide most of the narrative for BTS’s BU storyline. They are best read in chronological order; however, this gets messy since Notes were released in the albums and in two separate books. I recommend reading Book 1, then Book 2, and then reviewing the Notes from the albums (even though these overlap). Available on Weverse. 3. HER, TEAR, and ANSWER Notes Persona Notes MOTS: 7 Notes 4. Smeraldo Blog : The Smeraldo blog mysteriously appeared before the Love Yourself: HER comeback. It provides some background story related to the fictional smeraldo flower, which makes an appearance in the BU. (Seokjin also tweeted a photo with the fictional flower, a month before the album released.) If it's still confusing, as it is even for me who read this multiple times. We have to wait for the drama to understand more.
Never thought it was this Drama until i heard Euphoria while in the beach. From the start to the end the plot made me almost breakdown. The one who portrayed Joona is promising. Im still processing everything while im still drenched in tears and cant still figure out the ending.
I'm so freaking excited for this series nd also for my Seo Jihoon, he is really perfect to play Jin's character their..!😍 🔥I've been waiting for this series since years!!(Frm the time they announced)🥺Now drop the eps ASAP..😭or else I'll go crazy istg!!😩
Actually I think this was the concept they had in "I need u" and two after eras, if you clearly remember, there is this mv in which tae will stab his father(actor) with a bottle
Who else is sad that the roles are not played by BTS themselves...? 😩 I get that they didn't have the time, but still... Who else can play them? It may be a good drama anyway but it will not feel like them... 😣
I just watched the released 4 episodes .....and trust me it was so fun ...the drama went beyond my expectation ...i just dont understand ...why us that that there are no edits on the drama and why isn't it famius yet
