Welp Here We Are

Welp Here We Are

Ryan and Nathan watch BTS, “Idol,” for Charles. August 2018 lead single from *Love Yourself: Answer*. Traditional Korean themes against modern graphic art. Charles’s Easter eggs: tiger for Korea, rabbit in the moon, lion dance near the end. They did not catch them.

Peaked at 11 on the Billboard Hot 100, number one in South Korea. Lyrics read straight: I know what I want, never going to change, call me artist or idol, I don’t care. Ryan ties “you can’t stop me loving myself” to a civilian leadership course that day — you cannot lead if you do not like yourself. Bright, dance-heavy, mini-movie video. Nathan clocks the 2018 sound as gimmicky and unlikely to age; not a write-off of the group, just this cut.

Thank you, Charles. Join Patreon free for announcements and requests. Welp Here We Are.
