I AM AN ARMY

Aug 30, 2018 6 years ago

Army, that's what our idols call us. It is because we are those soldiers who are ready to fight no matter what happen just for them to reach their dreams and wishes in life. We are those soldiers that are always ready support all their works and of course we are those soldiers that will never get tired of loving them through thick and thin. All of us probably heard the word “fangirl” and I am proud to say that I am an army or a fangirl who never gets tired of watching my idols on youtube or in any social media accounts. But then, when people hears the word fangirl, they immediately thinks about negative things, that it is just associated with unhealthy teenager, unhealthy obsessions and many more judgements. People tend to believe that instead of focusing on there studies, a fangirl chooses to watched all day long over her idols which is a mistake. They don't know that being an army gives us a genuine happiness and brings out something good in us as a teenager. Though we army's really cant understand what they're saying but who cares? Its not a big deal. We idolize that particular group or a person because of its attitude and personality not just because of the wealth that she or he owns or its physical appearance. We idolize someone because of the character and because they inspire us to work harder in order for us to achieve our goals. When you become a fangirl, you can gain and meet new set of friends. When you meet other people who have the same interest as yours, you instantly become friends with them. When you become a fangirl, you will learn how to save money just to buy albums, posters, and tickets for concert. You will learn how to sacrifice something or even money just to get what you want. In my own perception when you become a fangirl, you will be independent and responsible human being. When you become a fangirl, instead of doing other things such as drinking alcohol, smoking and going out every night in a club or bars, a fangirl goes home right away after school and watched pictures and videos of their idols and even practicing their dance moves because it is our way of relieving our stress from a very long and tiring day at school or even at work, just by seeing our idols smile or even hearing their voices, it was like our stress melts right away. Of course it is not literally gone but at least we have another reason to strive hard in school or work. Well that's one positive side of being a fangirl. According to one of those army “we aren't a fandom, but a family. We believe in the strength of ourselves and use the support to become even stronger. The boys taught us through their famous line “fighting” means to never give up”, and yes I believe that we are not just a fandom but a family, because in every awards that our idols will receive they did not forget to mention and say thank you to the army , they believe that we are the one who gives them awards and make all their effort worthy. Upon hearing all of that we army's are more proud of the boys for being humble. Though they always receives harsh comments and judgements when they produce new set of songs and the boys are very aware of that so they prove that they are deserving for all of the awards that they receive and will continue to be more passionate on working so they can produce not just good music but an outstanding music. Because people tend to judge something or someone without knowing or hearing the story of that person. People will always judge with or without any reasons, but I don't care and we really don't care, as long as we are happy and didn't violated any persons. I will never forget nor regret that I am an army or a fangirl because I am proud that I am an army and I'm stanning BTS for almost 3 years and until now they still inspire me, because of them I am motivated to focus on my studies and not to engaged in any romantic relationship. Just what RM said “haters gonna hate, players gonna play, live a life man good luck”, you can never say that it is a bad thing unless you tried to do it. Try to experience first or try to know her story before judging someone. And to JK, V, RM, JH, JIN, JIMIN, SUGA continue to make good music and making us your army' s happy Fighting!
