BTS 'Bon Voyage' vs 'In the Soop'

  • I like that part of ITS too. Ig, my main problem with ITS is how they're putting Bangtan in this "artificial" setting/environment instead of their normal environment, which kinda put a layer of fakeness to it, and end up making the whole thing seems a bit less "real" for me personally.

    i get what u mean but i dont think the boys want to reveal their dorms or their living space.

    fans can get real creepy.

    Well they use their dorm for run BTS, vlive multiple times and Life Goes On MV. So, I think they def can arrange it for filming in the dorm at least (if they feel their individual apartment is too personal), it can gives ITS a more natural feel imo. Esp since they kinda marketed ITS as what BTS did in between their everyday life and leisure.

  • I think their dorms probably don’t feel like they have anywhere near enough space in them for all of them, now. You could see that they were very keen to split up into those who wanted to party and those who wanted to rest even if the massive new ITS complex.


    And last time, Yoongi was in the camper and Jin was in the tent - and Jin was still so aggravated by the noise that he decided to wake them all up with fireworks one day! 😂

    I see it the other way around lol. They split up bcs there were many spaces, so they feel the need to explore all those spaces for more content 😂

    True. Tho it gives more freedom for them to do more activities indoor/outdoor by providing this space. If they do it in the dorm, it’s literally us watching their daily life which is cute but then it also airs in Korean TV channel. To attract more views from the gp, it will need more various contents I believe. Compared to other real life varieties where celebs show their life, BTS can’t do the same since they are too popular and it can encounter inevitable noises by media or so. So I think this setting is compromising point for fans and BTS.

  • Although both are programs that follow the script, Bon Voyage feels more sincere. I don't know why but In The Soop the script is so obvious and feels fake. Maybe it was because they were stuck in one place? Or meybe because they were able to travel more places in Bon Voyage, it was not so obvious that they were acting according to the script? I don't know.

  • In the Soop feels really boring to me. Season 1 was ok, but this one is way too slow for me lmao (i will still watch it tho)

    Bon Voyage was kinda chaotic and more spontaneous, so i liked it way better, although like someone said i guess for BTS, ITS is more practical and comfortable to film

    Thats why it kinda irk me, the way they seems to marketed it as "let's look at what BTS were doing when they're taking a break from their busy lives, no crew or manager, just themselves", thats sound so real and raw tbh. And yet, when I look at the setting, its just seems like another schedule for them, but this time its in the forest. Also after scrolling through ITS official twitter I just realized how commercialized this show is. It just doesn't feel as genuine imo.
