The Seven Phases
Upon entering the exhibition room, the beautiful Seven Phases artworks by the renowned Taiwanese-American artist, James Jean will welcome you, from his sketched-out ideas to the final pieces of his artwork, it’s all there!
He created 7 characters which represent each 7 members of the group. It includes:
- “Moonchild” which represents the leader of the group, RM.
- “Narcissus” represents our worldwide Handsome, Jin.
- “Meowtide” represents SUGA.
- Our Sunshine, Jhope is “Solaria”
- “Champignon” is Jimin.
- “Violaine” represents V.
- Our golden Maknae, Jungkook is “Cottontail” who is sitting perched on top of Taihu rock.
Aside from that, James Jean created a painting with all the characters together. He took BTS’ song, “The Truth Untold” as his inspiration which has the lyric “Bloomed in the garden of loneliness a flower that resembles you”
The surface of each painting is 3 Dimensional and full of detail. This is perfect not only for ARMY but also for everyone who loves painting. James Jean’s creativity and artistry will definitely captivate your whole being. His artworks are so beautiful! Looking at them will relieve your stress.
The Asset Area
In this area, you’ll get to see BTS’ outfits that they wore in their “Permission to Dance” and “Butter” music videos and the outfits that they wore in their “Mic Drop “ performance during their Love Yourself, Speak Yourself World Tour. Their microphones and earpieces are also on display in the exhibit.
I felt goosebumps when I entered this area because I felt their presence just by looking at their assets. I am amazed by the idea that those things were actually used by them.
Their trophies and plaques in various award ceremonies are also there. This area will make us reminisce about all the proud moments when they are receiving their awards.
The ARMY Area
In this Area, fans are encouraged to write messages for BTS on the black wall with their small photos on it. Some wrote about how BTS saved their life through their music, and some wrote about how they miss them so much and that they are patiently waiting for them.
The exhibit is not complete without the Budol area where you can find some BTS merch.
Don’t miss this chance to witness this incredible exhibition that showcases the beauty of music and art. It’s all worth it!
