Stitch Talks Map of the Soul: 7

Wherein I get downright obnoxious on main about all things BTS in my coverage of their new album Map of the Soul: 7.

• Last episode, I talked about the wy white women in the Rey/Kylo fandom were going all out to portray John Boyega as a misogynistic monster for an Instagram comment milder (and far less misogynistic) than their usual fare
• Listening to this before March 1? If you’re a BTS fan in the US, head on over to my twitter and enter a giveaway to win a copy of the album!
• The project I refer to a few times in this is an ongoing essay project on blackness and antiblackness in Korean pop and hip hop and their fandom spaces.
• Wisha on Twitter
• Do You Bangtan
• Doolsetbangtan on Twitter
• DoolsetBangtan
• A really interesting commentary film that BigHit put out for the album that shows some of the talent that goes into crafting this and how BTS has influenced unexpected people across their journey.
• Stick around because I’ll try to have a bonus featuring my BTS nieceling’s thoughts on the album and our thoughts on the official music video for ON ASAP.
