DARK MATTER BY MYSTERYCYCLONE HAS UPDATEEEDDDD
The seven members of BTS now possess the sort of unfettered global influence that fashion houses dream of. When it was announced that the K-pop super group would be attending the Grammys, one immediately wondered what statement they would make with their clothes. Would it be Dior by Kim Jones, whom the boys just met in Los Angeles? Or would it be Gucci or Saint Laurent, with whom they had partnered before? Any designer with the faintest inkling of BTS’s fame should jump through hoops to dress them.
Moments ago, the band arrived on the red carpet in very crisp and clean tuxedos. At first glance, one might think it the obvious choice; a black tuxedo is the absolute epitome of classic American style. But BTS subverted this stereotype in one simple stroke by enlisting two South Korean designers. JayBaek Couture delivered custom looks for V, Jungkook, Jin, Jimin, Suga, and RM, while J-Hope’s came from designer Kim Seo Ryong, whose namesake label has long been a fixture at Seoul Fashion Week.
There is a strong domestic market for custom suits in South Korea, as the country’s thriving entertainment industry leaves countless stars in need of occasion clothes. JayBaek Couture, for instance, often dresses actors like Hyun Bin for film premieres and K-pop stars like BTS and GOT7 for regional awards shows. Rarely, however, are these designers chosen for international events—and never one on the scale of the Grammys. It’s always a brand with big name recognition, chosen to underscore that implicit quest for Western acceptance. Yet Jungkook, Jimin, Jin, J-Hope, Suga, RM, and V looked better than ever tonight, particularly V who had dyed his hair a pale mint green for the occasion (Jimin’s lilac lengths made a nice complementary pop).
By choosing these respected, but lesser known names, BTS used their platform to shine a light on their countrymen. Consider it the ultimate power move and a poignant reminder: That whether it’s fashion or music, talent can come from anywhere.

The every single one of these has tried to kill me is literally KHR whole arcs 😂
found family dynamics i adore:
the entire gang shares 1 (one) braincell which they takes turns passing around
unwilling teammates gradually grow on each other
Area Man Forcibly Adopted by Several Children
bonded over shared trauma
none of us have actual families or homes to go back to anymore, but at least we have each other
“every single one of these guys has tried to kill me at least once, but we’re cool now and i’d trust them with my life”
redemption arc comes with bonus new family and friends (bonus feature is non-negotiable and eventual acceptance inevitable)
i WAS going to leave the group and go my own way as soon as this job was over - and i would have gotten away with it, too, if it weren’t for my meddling heart!
