[PD:] No, I'm a-
[Jin:] Aye, it seems like it
[V:] Hyung, sit down
[Jin:] Yes [Laughs]
[J-Hope:] You're embarrassed [Rap Monster laughs] ..That can happen [Chattering]
[PD:] Ah, wait here for a while..I have a meeting
[Jin:] Bye fan-nim~
[PD leaves the room]
[Jungkook:] Ya, when was that from?
[All the other members:] Billboard
[Jungkook:] Were we just going up?
[J-Hope:] That was May right?
[Jin:] Yeah
[Rap Monster:] May, what day was it?
[J-Hope:] Now it's…
[Suga:] That was May?
[J-Hope:] Well, it's almost September already
[Suga:] That's crazy
[Rap Monster:] Over 3 months ago
[V:] Woah, wow
[Suga:] There's only 4 months left now
[J-Hope:] That's right
[Jin:] Wow
[Rap Monster:] It's like we feel it all of a sudden..100 days left
[J-Hope:] Ahh really?
[Rap Monster:] Yeah
[Jungkook:] If you say that, it feels like it's a short time
[Rap Monster:] Yeah, sorry.. [Laughter]
[Suga:] 100 days already passed? It felt really short
[Jungkook:] It feels like time barely passed by
[J-Hope:] Wow, time flies fast
[Jin:] The amount of emotion and goosebump-
[Jungkook:] Goosebumps
[Jin:] Goosebumps we felt at that moment, wow we became worldwide. That kind of feeling
[Suga:] [V laughs] Stop using "worldwide"
[Jin:] Why?? Honestly speaking, I made it up [Chattering] I said it first
[Rap Monster:] Yeah, that's why I added that in the lyrics, "Sorry worldwide" [Laughter and chattering]
[Suga:] International pop..k..
[V:] Sunshine
[Suga:] Sunshine
[BTS:] Rainbow
[Jin:] That's over now
[V:] Shrimp
[Jungkook:] USB Hub
[V:] Hub..
[Jin:] Seriously, how far are you gonna go?
[Rap Monster:] But really, all of us grew a lot
[Jin:] That's right
[Rap Monster:] Be honest, when you guys first came, who didn't know what "Billboards" was?
[Jimin:] Me
[J-Hope:] Ahhhh~
[Jungkook:] Me
[J-Hope:] Me [Rap Monster laughs] I'm raising my hand slowly
[Jungkook:] Honestly, I didn't know anything about music back then
[Jimin:] For me, for Billboard it was true but I didn't even know what the Grammys were
[Rap Monster:] Not knowing Grammys was understandable but since Billboard has a chart; I thought it's a good thing, so I supported it
[Jimin:] I thought there was a singer named "Grammys"..I kept hearing Grammys mentioned with music, that's why I thought Grammys was a singer.
[Rap Monster:] We're such noobs, aren't we?
[Jimin:] Aye, it was a long time ago
[Suga:] That was 7 – 8 years ago
[Rap Monster:] I said this on an interview before, when we were waiting..Hobi and me..we were…what was it? We went to the [beeped out] store. We sat down and talked like a year before debut.
[Jimin:] Do you remember?
[J-Hope:] Of course I remember
[Rap Monster:] We both sat down and had a really long talk sitting there on the iron tape
[Jin:] What did you eat?
[Rap Monster:] I don't know. Back then, we ate food there that kinda looks like hotdogs
[J-Hope:] Yeah, that's right, that's right
[Rap Monster:] Like food for 150 won
[Suga:] Ahh right! There was that food [Chattering]
[J-Hope:] The store before it changed
[Suga:] There was that kind of food, about 150 – 130 won [Chattering]
[Jungkook:] Wasn't it chilli or something?
[Rap Monster:] Something like that. Anyway, we were eating-
[J-Hope:] That time, really I don't even know if it's going in my mouth or nose
[Rap Monster:] We talked about if we would even be able to debut for a long time.
[Suga:] We always talk about that
[J-Hope:] We were nervous
[Jimin:] Namjoon-hyung always said things like that
[Jin:] That's right
[Jimin:] We talked about it at Jamsil bridge and at the café with this hyung. He always called me up and always talked to me.
[Jin:] He called the members and talked to the members one by one often
[Rap Monster:] Café office. [Laughter]
[Suga:] Honestly it was scary. Every day was scary
[V:] Honestly, when me and Namjoon-hyung took Japanese classes together
[Rap Monster:] That's right
[V:] I was very perceptive to someone I didn't even debut with yet [Laughter]
[J-Hope:] Oh Jungkook and I always fell asleep in English class [Laughter]
[Jungkook:] We both fell asleep in the same way [Laughter]
[Jin:] J-Hope and I only played in Chinese class [Laughter]
[J-Hope:] That was a really long time ago
[Rap Monster:] I didn't think we'll get to debut, even after the year we debuted
[Suga:] I..I even got injured at that time, I didn't think I'd debut
[Rap Monster:] To be honest, we are the only ones that received an award at the show, as a K-Pop group
[J-Hope:] True
[V:] True
[Rap Monster:] I'm not saying we should boast but to be honest, it is a huge success. That's what I think. But because of that, I keep wondering..to what point, how far we need to go up..Like we go really far up. For example, the video in front of us, won't it be replayed forever? Like in 10 years, we go on reality shows and they're playing that video and ask how we felt over and over again. After experiencing that, it makes me nervous honestly. It makes me wonder how far we might fall down.
[J-Hope:] Oww..Yeah
[Suga:] Me too, me too. I relate so much because the hardest thing for me is that going up is going up. We worked hard to come up to where we are
[V:] I don't like that
[Suga:] But compared to that, won't falling down happen so quickly? I worry about that a lot.
[Rap Monster:] Hmm, that's what I'm saying
[Jin:] It's like when you meet someone for the first time and you have that kind of excitement. Feeling of nervousness and worry of what this person is going to be like. Isn't it similar?
[Rap Monster:] First meeting kind of feeling?
[Jin:] Yeah, first meeting
[J-Hope:] What are you saying suddenly? [Laughs]
[Jungkook:] Yeah, hyung I think you really…
[Jin:] Did I go too far?
[J-Hope:] We have to settle this today [Jimin laughs]
[Jin:] Ah, I'm nervous for today [Chattering]
[J-Hope:] We have to play a game today
[Jungkook:] I think I know what you're talking about
[Jin:] Yeah so if you understand, quickly make the mood or something yeah? [Laughter]
[Jungkook:] Sing a song
[Jin:] Yeah
[V:] [Sings] "They tell me to come" [Sings A Typical Trainee's Christmas] [Laughter and chattering]
[Suga:] I remember when Jungkook sang Señorita and his voice cracked
[Jimin:] Ahh yeah Señorita..Back then, I couldn't even get lessons
[J-Hope:] Ahh that's right
[Jimin:] I couldn't even get lessons so I just watched
[Jin:] Jimin joined really late
[Jimin:] Somewhat, a little bit I..[Laughs]
[V:] Jimin then…
[Jimin:] Stop it, I know what you're going to say
[V:] When Jimin couldn't get lessons, he came to one of my lessons
[Jimin:] What?
[V:] When I was having lessons
[Jimin:] Vocal?
[V:] Yeah
[Jungkook:] Observer, observer
[V:] He was just observing that time and I thought I should show him a cool side of myself. All I did was "Doomba, doomba, doomba" [Laughter]
[Jimin:] Seriously, all he did was that for hours "Doom, doom, doom" [Jin laughs] He did that the whole time and ended
[V:] Ahh, I wanted to show him how cool I am
[Rap Monster:] That kind of feeling, in those Chinese martial art film..They make you clean for 3 years
[Jin:] Ahh that's right, that's right..You went to the kitchen and washed the dishes for 3 years
[Rap Monster:] That's right [Jimin laughs]
[Jungkook:] That's why Jimin-hyungs' first practice was "Why do you call me?"
[Jin and Jimin:] [Sings] "Why do you call me, why do you call me, tee de de de"
[Rap Monster:] That time, that was then, and now is now. I think it's like our collective idea of an idol. About how we want to live, what we show. We keep throwing out social issue messages, like even now, our album title is "Love Yourself" too. We don't make meaningless songs but doing this seems like we're acting too, as we're living our life.
[Jimin:] Yeah, so I think people might not know…
[J-Hope:] We want to show a good image to people [Chattering]
[Jin:] We've always
[Jimin:] They don't understand why we have to live like this, there's no other way
[Suga:] We've always?
[Jin:] We have always shown ourselves as good people [J-Hope laughs]
[Jimin:] Yeah I mean we want to show our good image too
[Jin:] That's right
[Suga:] This is, this is difficult. I mean it isn't fake for sure
[Jimin:] Right
[Suga:] If you think about it, we're just people that are presented after being wrapped up nicely
[Jimin:] But of course at the same time, it's not like we're trying to deceive anyone and lie..it's not that..we're just always trying to show them our good sides, so...
