BTS London Photo Spots
These are all the spots BTS took photos at in London. It is organized by location and shows the image first and then the says the location and address and a small description. If you scroll to the bottom I included just a plain list of the locations as well as a google map :)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
 Light Pole near Burberry
121 Regent St, Mayfair, London W1B 4TB, UK
The closest tube station is Piccadilly Circus which is also a really cool spot.  I recommend taking the tube there and then you just walk down the curved street and the light pole is in the middle of the street at a crosswalk.  The street is called Regent Street.  There was no line to take a photo when I went. Taehyung took photos facing both directions of the street.
Tumblr media
Flat Iron Restaurant
 17 Beak St, Soho, London W1F 9RW, UK
If you keep going down Regent Street it is a right turn onto Beak Street and the restaurant is right on end of the street.  It’s extremely small inside so either get there early or be prepared to wait.  Inside there are about four picnic tables that you will be seated at with strangers.  Taehyung sat at the 2nd table closest to the door with his back to the door. However, I don’t think you can request to sit here since the restaurant is so small.  The only food they sell is steak and it is only served in one cut.  You can also get a really small side salad(as seen in the photo) or side of chips(french fries).  It was not too expensive and was quite good food but I don’t recommend it if you are a vegetarian/vegan cause there is literally no veg option.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Beak Street
50-54 Beak St, Soho, London W1F 9RN, UK
A little further down Beak Street where Flat Iron is on is the location Hobi took these photos.  The green tile building is called Rag and Bone which makes it easy to find.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Disney store
350-352 Oxford St, London W1C 1JH, UK
Hope took two photos here in the Cinderella carriage.  There may be a small line for the carriage.  The mickey plush he is holding is part of the Mickey Memories collection and may not be there when you go.  However, when I went I found it in the back of the store on the right. When I went, the lighting was weird so my photo came out a little weird. I don’t know how he got that great lighting in his photo. The closest tube station is Oxford circus but it is only about a 15 minute walk from where Hope took the other photo on Beak Street.
The following locations are not close to anything else so I suggest going to them when you go to other tourist locations.
Tumblr media
Tramshed Restaurant
2 Rivington St, Hackney, London EC2A 3LX, UK
This restaurant has multiple stores but the one that Namjoon went to is this one on Rivington Street with the cow sculpture.  The closest tube station is Old Street Station.  There’s honestly nothing else to really do in this area but the restaurant was really neat and not too expensive. It’s in a cool old renovated warehouse and has lots of art in it including the large cow sculpture seen in Namjoon’s photo.  The cow sculpture is Damien Hirst and he’s a really cool British artist.  Namjoon sat in the back area on the left about two tables away from the sculpture.  My friend and I were not seated there but we went for lunch and since it was not too busy after we finished our meal we quietly, quickly, and politely went and snapped a few photos at the table before we left.  You can also do this or request the table if they’re not busy but please remember to be polite and kind and to not be a rabid crazy fan.  The food was good and not too expensive but yet again I don’t think there were any vegetarian or vegan options and there was only chicken or cow products because that was their whole theme.  
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Top of Tate Modern
Bankside, London SE1 9TG, United Kingdom
The closest tube station to the Tate is Borough Market which is a really cool market food place I recommend going to.  The food is cheap and really good and it has a great vibe.  After going to Borough Market walk over to the Thames river and walk along the river to the Tate. You will pass Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre and also the Millenium Bridge(featured in the beginning of the Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix film).  The Tate is a large brown building right next to the Millenium Bridge and it used to be a factory.  Entry to the museum is FREE unless you want to go into certain exhibits.  It’s really big and full of modern art(which is eh if you ask me).  Namjoon took the photo on the balcony on the riverside of the building.  I didn’t have time to go and recreate this photo but I’m pretty positive he took it from the gift shop balcony on the 4th floor.  If not there is a top floor you can pay to access that he might have taken it from. (please message me below if this is incorrect!)
Tumblr media
Ye Olde Green Hut (green shed cafe)
10, Kensington Park Rd, Notting Hill, London W11
Taehyung posted this photo along with his other London photos and I stumbled upon the shed while wandering Notting Hill one day.  Notting Hill and Portobello Road market are super cute and instagrammable and I highly recommend going to them.  
However, the closest tube station to this shed is Notting Hill Gate Station and the shed is right next to Kensington Temple.   However The cafe has really weird hours so if you want to get food from it it’s open weekdays from 8:30am to 3:30pm but it closes randomly.  I visited a few times and it was closed both times I went.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Right of the Tower Bridge
Tower Bridge Rd, London SE1 2UP, United Kingdom
Taehyung took sooo many photos here. This is on the ~right~ bank of the tower bridge.  Aka the side that doesn’t have the Tower of London(castle).  There are two tube stations that are pretty equal distant walk to get here. You can take the tube to Tower Hill Station and walk across the bridge and then up the riverside. Or you can take the tube to London Bridge Station and walk along the river to the spot.  I recommend going to the London Bridge Station because the Tower Hill one is hard to get to.  This photo location is on the area with a ledge that you can sit on but then also a little further for the pictures with the fence.  I don’t really know how to explain where it is precisely and I just recommend you walk up and down that area until you think it looks right.  This area is constantly crowded with tourists so expect to wait a little bit to get the perfect shot!
~BONUS~
Olle Korean BBQ
88 Shaftesbury Ave, London W1D 6NH
Jin, Jimin, and Jungkook were seen eating here! I did not get a chance to eat here. It’s pretty expensive and I’ve heard mixed reviews about the food. Let me know what you thought of it if you go!

"For Someone Who Used AI to Write a Poem"
Now I let it pass back into darkness. I hear you. I know this life is hard now. I know your days are precious on this earth. But what are you trying to be free of? The living? The miraculous task of it? Love is for the ones who love the work.

2015 Summer Package in Kota Kinabalu
Release date: 22 July 2015
Starcast article (archive) (corresponding Facebook album)
Outfits identified by @GetOnSwag
youtube
The Summer Packages are boxes released between 2015 and 2019 during the summer season.
It includes a photobook, a DVD, photo cards, and special goods related to summer (beach ball, mini-fan
).
This package is technically the second one. There was already a BTS 2014 Summer Package released on 11 June 2014 but as the name of the book indicates, it was a “2013 memorial photobook”. They didn’t go to a special location to make it. This package was also a prize to win at BTS’ Mwave Meet & Greet session from the 14 June 2014 (Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4, B cuts)

An ode to this classic Namjin scene
From chapter 34 of Blueberry Eyes/Strawberry Swing (a sope + slow burn namjin + established vmin fic)
“It’s fine,” Seokjin says. “Life sucks sometimes.”
“Just like the moon
” Namjoon muses thoughtfully. “We wax and wane through days of darkness and light.”
and
“What are you thinking of?” he decides to ask Namjoon.
“I’m just thinking of us making out, and I say to you that my body is an offering, for the sole purpose of your pleasure, and you play me like an instrument. I yield to your skilled hands and I sing only in notes you can hear, and so our love is a song that offends the gods, our music a subversion of divine dominion.”
Seokjin was expecting something more prosaic. “What are you? A virgin sacrifice?” Seokjin teases jokingly.

director's cut: not a gentle laughter, anything you'd like to talk about!
It took me like a whole damn week to reply to this ask (I'm sorry about that!) because I just have so many feelings about this fic.
Quarantine has been really, really hard on me. I think it's zero percent an accident that The Old Guard spoke to so many of us so deeply last year — their tragedy is that any social contact they might have with a mortal could lead to a picture or a story on social media getting picked up by a CIA agent that could lead to them getting locked in a cage for eternity. Social connections outside their group are high-risk, just like in-person social contact is high-risk for us these days.
Booker speaks to me so much as a character because he was profoundly isolated even before he got exiled. Booker struggles to actually communicate about his needs with the people who care about him. Jewish Booker speaks to me so much because it's the mark of antisemitism to assume you won't be wanted, to assume you'll be exiled if you're not useful enough or entertaining enough or whatever enough. I'd love to not know so intimately how depression and trauma fuck with your brain and make it hard to believe people care about you, let alone ask them for what you need, but I do, and here's this character who's seemingly hand-made for me to work out this shit through.
And Jewish Booker speaks to me because I don't have much in the way of Jewish community these days. I'm coming up on another High Holidays that I'll be spending alone, when there are certain prayers you can't say by yourself, and knowing that this niche headcanon of this fictional character is alone too makes it a little easier.
So I sat down to write "5 times Booker gets wasted on Purim and one time he doesn't" and instead all these FEELINGS came pouring out. Feelings about what it would mean for a small group of immortals to be the only long-term source of human connections for each other. Feelings about being able to spend time with an ancestor who survived. Feelings about how beautiful it is when we get creative and find new ways to keep going, as Jews in the face of violence and erasure, and just generally as people in the face of traumas big and small.
Once I accepted that this wasn't gonna be a silly romp and started writing in earnest, I started having a lot of feelings about how Nile might relate to all this. Which led to one of my favorite passages in the fic:
There's a hell of a lot more between the two of them now than just the shared life experience of modern immortals who carry the weight of their ancestors, but it's still one of the things she treasures the most about their friendship. Sometimes she carries her ancestors like a teddy bear, dangling them by the hand as she runs off to explore everything the world has to offer, or clutching them to her chest for comfort. Sometimes it all feels like an albatross around her neck, all these boundaries and expectations for her life set long before she was born, and to ignore it would be naive or a betrayal but maybe a relief as well. It's not the only or most important thing about her, but it's there, all the time, an essential part of her. Booker is the only one of their little family who understands.
That imagery is inspired by this post by @victimhood that I like to think of as the Book of Nile Manifesto 2.0. So much of our understanding of ourselves and our experiences of the world are intimately linked to our context, what's happening around us in the times and places where we live. Booker and Nile were born into a world that had so much context foregrounded for them, and Nile and Jewish Booker are members of diasporas who were forcibly disconnected from so much of their peoples' original contexts. That's a RADICALLY different experience of the world than Andy and Quynh and Lykon, or even Joe and Nicky. The older immortals lived through things that were foregone conclusions before Booker or Nile were even born, and now they're each a diaspora of one as a result of their immortality, but first living a mortal life of longing for impossible connections? It all hits different for our baby immortals.
Telling stories is the very most human thing. Telling stories about what awful things happened to us and what we learned as a result and how we're choosing for it to shape us — that's the crux of so much Jewish storytelling. And I think that survivor's outlook on telling stories would speak deeply to Nile.
It's not an exclusively Jewish way of telling stories, of course. And we even get some of it in the movie, when Andy tells Nile, "You come from warriors." I don't think she's talking about the Marines there — she's talking about what it takes to fight for your survival.
Anyway, I just have a million diaspora feels, and I think that Nile would learn from Booker about Jewish rituals and Jewish ways of telling stories and she would have her own pile of diaspora feels about it. Nile walked into a family in crisis, and she shouldn't have to fix anyone else's shit, but she deserves agency in shaping the next iteration of this little broken family she's been forced into, and I think she'd see all the mess that came from people not fucking talking to each other, and she'd continue to be rightfully pissed that Andy welcomed her to immortality with a bullet to the forehead, and she'd take everything she learned from her parents and grandparents and church elders and everyone else she might've looked up to growing up, and she'd take everything she's learning from Andy and Joe and Nicky, and she'd take what she's starting to learn from Booker, and she'd start building into her life rituals to help her feel connected.
And as much as there's pain in diaspora, there's beauty in it as well. Writing non-Jewish Nile seeing the value in these Jewish practices makes me feel a little more understood and wanted, a little more connected myself.
Thanks so much for asking about this fic, friend. <3
