I am Korean American. I am so proud of BTS and what they have done for Korean people around the world. I love how they included Arirang in Body to Body; I get chills seeing stadiums sing the song, especially in Japan. I think all people can relate with that song.

I felt kind of strange seeing the audience hold up Korean flags during the song today though. I understand the sentiment... BTS are Korean and are so proud Korean. They always remember their roots. But what is the point of this project exactly exactly? For BTS to see that and be proud? I just want to understand better.

International ARMY can sometimes romanticize Korea and don't really know much about actual life and politics there. So waving around the flag seems kind of like blindly doing so just because they love BTS. If the purpose is for BTS to be proud of their roots, then okay. But I do think fans tend to romanticize Korea. "I love Korea!" "I'm going to Korea to find an oppa!" I've heard several ARMY say this to me.

It's not the same, but it would be so cringe if Taylor Swift sang America the Beautiful in Korea and people were waving around the American flag. The difference is white people are colonizers and shouldn't be proud of that whereas Korea was colonized. They resisted and carried out, working their way to where they are today. But I wonder how many people in the audience actually know all about Korean history and the people and just blindly waving the flag because they love BTS.

BTS liked it and were happy and I suppose that's all that matters.

Maybe I'm over thinking. Please don't hate, just having these thoughts. It can be complicated being ARMY as a Korean person.

Hello! I don't even know where to begin, it's a long story. My customer (I sell shipping containers) in Louisiana sent a cashier's check via certified USPS mail. He paid $10 for the tracking. But it's gotten lost and all over the place. 3 weeks later, the letter is sitting on the desk of the post master at the Tampa Post Office on Bessie Coleman Blvd.

Someone needs to physically pick it up. Give the tracking number and if they give you a hard time, call my customer and will provide all of the necessary info.

My company is remote. The office just has a tampa mailing address and a receptionist at an office building who takes in mail for the company. But we don't have any physical staff in Tampa to be able to fetch the letter.

So I would like to hire someone to go to the post office, pick up the letter, and drop it off at the office. The office and post office are 2 miles apart. It's really simple.

I am happy to send you my business info and get on the phone/video chat to discuss details. I also want to vet the person doing this because being reliable and trustworthy is important.

Feel free to comment or DM me! ideally, if this could happen TODAY (Friday May 15) that is deal.
