It's the second day of HwaYangYeonHwa On Stage: Epilogue Concert. Today is the first time Yoongi's parents attending the BTS concert. I volunteer to show them around to the backstage and taking care of them, making sure they have a good time at the concert.

I am kind of worried about the mood of all the seven members due to the current trending hashtag since yesterday.

The release of HYYH: Young Forever has broken a new record for BTS. At the same time, a new uproar from other fandoms is chasing after BTS and ARMY too.

BTS were accused of allegedly plagiarizing the concept photos of SHINee's Japanese album released in 2014.

Regarding the alleged plagiarism of SHINee's concept. I do agree that Bighit is certainly guilty of using too much of a similar concept within the same album. Please note that album concepts are all decided by the company, it has nothing to do with BTS members. The members are only actively involved in music-making.

The music video is found to tags of BIGBANG. VIPs criticize BTS on coattail riding on BIGBANG's fame.

Such a marketing technique can be found commonly in many KPOP bands, not just unique to BTS. Since the scandal, BigHit has removed the tags.

BTS received 4 awards (Best Album, Best Music Video, Best Dance Performance, and Top 12 Artist) during the Seoul Music Award in January 2016 has garnered some hate by other fandoms. The increased popularity and attention that BTS is receiving starts to worry some of the insecure fans from other fandoms. In particular, XXX-X (I shall not name it explicitly). So these fans decided to the matter through their own hands

The hashtag #plagiarismBTS (and other hashtag related to plagiarism) trended 4th, 5th, 7th, 10th and 11th in Korea.

BTS members are very active on Twitter. After the first day of the concert ended.

Fortunately, the boys seem to be fine during the whole concert. They put in all their energy for the best performance. Yoongi's parents look really proud of his son standing on stage, watching him performing in front of more than 10,000 audiences.

When it comes to the interview of their view of the (HYYH). Despite it's the second time I'm watching this video, I am still so emotionally triggered by Yoongi's response and the close-up shot of him with the ring I gave him.

When answering what is the end of the Most Beautiful Moment in Life, Yoongi answered:

-----

Working as BTS is one of the many mountains in life. Of course, we can always reach the peak and come down. That moment will come, I think we will see our downfall. But then, there would be another mountain in life, and going up another one and come down again. To repeat, that is life.

I think. BTS, my most beautiful youth and my young days. Even if this all ends, I know there will be another wonderful life waiting for me. I know best is yet to come. So I try to be calm about it.

Yoongi's mum hugs me when she saw that I am so emotionally overwhelmed by Yoongi's message.

After the encore stage, Yoongi walks around the stage to wave goodbye to the audience. After walking for a while, he finally saw us. Yoongi did a sebae (The most formal bow, involving going down on both knees and bending towards the floor) to his parents. He also couldn't control his tear and start tearing up. Fortunately, Jimin is there to console him.

Yoongi's mum is couldn't hold up her tear. Even Yoongi's dad has his eye well up with tear, but holding it back.

I'm sure, now they are the ones who are the proudest of Yoongi and will support him in their very best way.

After the concert ended. I send Yoongi's parents back to the hotel to rest. They are heading back to Daegu the next day, worrying about the business of their restaurant. I bid goodbye to them and make my way to my late night date with Yewon Eonnie.

🦉Jihye: Yewon Unnie! I miss you so much.

🦢Yewon: Where have you been to? You did not even bother in asking me about SUGA's schedule lately. Something is fishy. There could only be two possibilities.

Of all the people I knew, I know I can trust Yewon Unnie. So I decided to come clean with her about my confirmed relationship with Yoongi.

🦢Yewon: Heol! This is breaking news. The fact that no paparazzi found out is unbelievable!

🦉Jihye: Unnie, you must promise you will never tell this to anyone. You are the only one outside my family who knows this.

🦢Yewon: I swear to god. I promise I will not tell anyone about it. Oh my god! I'm so happy for you.

...

🦢Yewon: You even met his parents? This advances a little too fast, isn't it?

🦢Yewon: Oh ya! I really want to know how Yoongi behaves when he's around you? Does he do ageyo? Or he's super manly? OMG! You both kissed right? How is his kissing skills?

🦉Jihye: Unnie. How do you expect me to answer so many questions at once? And how do I answer such private questions?
