Happy 10th anniversary BTS! In my latest @TeenVogue essay, I explore how impactful they've been to all ARMY, but specifically adoptee diaspora who had been raised "white." @BTS_twt instilled a love of Korean culture in their daily lives.💜

Thanks for having us at the White House! It was a huge honor to discuss important issues with @POTUS today. We're very grateful for #BTSARMY who made it all possible.🫰💜

Did they grab random English speakers to be the VIPs in #squidgame? They cannot be actual actors. I’m going to move to Korea and be an English speaking actress. – at Seattle, WA
Heard some noises and was so confused...it was rain on the skylight. It's been close to 8 weeks since we last had rain in Seattle. 🌧️ #seattlesummer

Happy Juneteenth! The first U.S. holiday that's illegal to teach about in 15 states.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Despite recent state laws that have passed this year targeting Critical Race Theory, none of these laws in any way would criminalize the teaching of Juneteenth to students.
How embarrassing that we have to give things away for Americans to get a life-saving vaccine. 😞 – at Seattle, WA
