377

this is so so great, like their live performances on TV were a huge factor in dynamite’s success in japan bc the numbers on iTunes and music charts rose (and stayed) after them
386
a second consecutive #1 without any physicals.... armys are truly amazing
387

Butter’s MV (full length!) will be streamed on the Yunika Vision digital board in Shinjuku from 6/9-6/15 at the times written below as part of “BB Japan Hot 100 Airplay” where they pick up songs charting high on the radio chart :) BTS & Butter ranked #1 on it last week twitter.com/YUNIKAVISION_S…

AHHHHHHHHHHHHH BUTTER SECOND #1 ON THE BB JAPAN HOT 100 CHART !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! twitter.com/Billboard_JAPA…
391
a complete sweep on all major global Billboard charts for two weeks consecutively.... no one's doing it like BTS
392
Butter's only been released for 3 tracking weeks and it already has 2 #1 positions on the BB Jpn Hot100 Chart.... "queen" dynamite can't relate, she's been in the Top 10 for nearly a year now and she hasn't even gotten a single #1 jdsjdsd
393
we're doing rlly well for streams but we should work more on the twitter chart bc we definitely can do better:)
- j-armys: let's try to put the keywords " Butter BTS (and maybe also Dynamite )" into as many tweets as possible
- i-armys: rt j-armys' tweets with those keywords!
394
the gp's rlly whipped for BTS huh
Butter Dynamite Film out twitter.com/moonchildinmon…

Dynamite’s surpassed 400 million total streams on BB Japan’s Streaming Songs Chart, making a record as the first foreign artist to surpass this number (4th overall) and setting a new record as the fastest act ever (in Japan) to surpass 400m streams! twitter.com/Billboard_JAPA…

lrt: interview w/ the leader of dance group GANMI, which participated in Butter’s choreo! They‘ve also choreographed TXT’s New Rules, Drama & No Rules. Lots of interesting details— 1 intriguing fact was that they don’t know which parts of their choreo are used until it’s released
398
The general dance steps in Butter’s main chorus were created by his group (esp parts around 0:30-0:45 of the practice vid), but the smaller details (like the hand kisses) were made on bh’s side. So in his theory, pro dancers like him are relied on to decide *how* to groove +
399
to the music/beats, but the process of choosing how to deliver it to the fans and designing how exactly to display the moves is done by the performance directors at bh.
400
another interesting point: although the lyrics in the chorus say “side step right left to the beat,” it felt more aligned with BTS’ style to dance forward in the chorus, not sideways (also seen in Dyna). which led to the current moves which move both forward and to the sides
