"Ironically, although we never had any issues with our retro technology, such as the Polaroid...tech that dressed up the film beautifully...challenges with new technology that delayed the shoot...Modern technology is...unpredictable & sometimes unstable." kenyarockfilmfestivaljournal…

Sincere condolences to all the parents, families and friends of victims of the recent school fire tragedy.
Rolling Stone ranks BTS Spring Day as the BEST K-pop song of the 21st century! "A moment of stark vulnerability that became a signature song for one of the century’s biggest pop acts, “Spring Day” turned personal grief into a surging, triumphal power ballad. “I wish to end this winter/How much longings must fall like snow/Before that spring day arrives,” goes the English translation of RM’s passionate lyrics. The song is associated with a tragedy in the band’s native Korea, the sinking of the ferry MV Sewol in 2014, in which 304 people died but its sense of resilience and hope wrought from loss has a transcendent feel, soon to be mirrored in the band’s global takeover. BTS would have bigger crossover hits around the world, but few songs approach the gathering power of their music like this one" CONGRATULATIONS BTS BTS PAVED THE WAY BTS GREATEST OF ALL TIME

"...Bob Dylan...became the first popular musician to win the Nobel Prize in literature... #BTS also fully has the qualifications to win a Nobel Prize," Yim said. He then recited a line from BTS’ "Spring Day." "How much yearning must fall like snow before that spring day comes?"
