The #1 Blind Item Site in the World!

The BTS Connection

[Blind Gossip] It was so much fun to watch the South Korean boy band BTS perform at the American Music Awards last night!

This young female actress was especially eager to meet the hottest boy band on the planet. She singled out one of the boys and went over and introduced herself.

He said hello and was nodding and smiling at her, so she thought he understood what he was saying. She exchanged phone numbers with him and walked away thinking she had scored something valuable. She called a few minutes later, but it turns out he gave her the phone number of one of the team assistants!

The reason he gave her someone else’s number? He speaks no English!

They might never have a love connection… but wouldn’t it be great if he could just call and say, “I Need U, Girl”?

    Lmao never thought i would see my favs on this site, guess the boys are really hitting big isn’t them

    WHY would he give his phone number to the girl when he doesn’t speak her language??? Have you ever tried chatting to someone who doesn’t speak your language over the phone? NOT easy. Just ask my little old grandma in Italy.

    I couldn’t care less who these folks are, but it immediately brought to mind one of my favorite episodes of The OC. Uptight Taylor brought a K-Pop star to her prom. Thankfully, he couldn’t understand a word she said!

    Is this a case of life imitating art, or art imitating art?

    Aren’t they all gay? I mean, nothing wrong with that but I thought they were all gay. I didn’t see what was so great about them except for the high energy routine. They’ll be a flash in the pan.

      Ive been their fan for years, and trust me. None of them were lmao The Korean industry is pretty different from Western. They keep most of their relationship private, insanely private, but they are more focused on their career now

    They’re a korean group and some of them can’t speak fluent English but it’s ok. BTS is a korean group and korean is their language. English is an international language but it isn’t the only one in the world. They do take the effort to learn English and memorize them for interviews and that’s really nice of them trying to communicate with international fans.

    Just because he gave his team assistants number doesn’t mean its because he doesn’t understand English. Everyone understands exchanging its not hard. He just didn’t want to give her his number and I don’t blame him. He’s a Korean idol and probably doesn’t wanna involve himself with all that stuff in America.

    I’m gonna go ahead and guess this was

    BTS member Jungkook or Seokjin
    And the girl: hailee steinfeld

    They aren’t supposed to date. It’s not like the USA. They date in secret if at all. None of those fake contract relationships like here. They focus on their music because they only have so much time before their required military service time that has to start by 32. DURING that almost 2 yrs they still don’t date. The one I has seen if their groups are hot, they don’t get married or openly date until mid 30’s. I am just saying it wasn’t going to happen.

    I’m guessing the actress could be either Sabrina Carpenter, Hailee Steinfeld or one of the girls from the Riverdale cast (there were three of them last night). The BTS member who was singled out might have been V or Jin cause both of them were very popular on Twitter during the event and both of them don’t know English.

    None of America’s actresses. It isn’t always about America…I say any Korean actress. Likeeee Bae Suxzy, Han Hyo-joo, Yoo In-na… Or any of the Korean singers!! Waaaaahhhhh they are all so pretty and super talented!! I have tons of K-dramas and girl KPOP group songs to recommend to anyone who would love to know!!

    • Bambalina11 says

      I have literally just got into K dramas….subtitles usually annoy me but not with these. I love them! So far I’ve watched white nights, Black & Quiz from god…any suggestions would be great!

    Ha, seriously? Is this what everyone is all ga-ga about? Besides of hearing, learning, and being inspired by the beautiful meaning behind their lyrics, every reporter and interviewer cares about this kind of nonsense? Who likes who? Which American singer or actress does so and so like blah blah blah.

  12. aaaKoko says

    Not sure who is the actress, but considering how all of them (even if most of them aren’t good talking in english), usually get what people are telling them in english, I guess he just didn’t want to give his number to her, taking in consideration how the ‘idol’ life is in Korea, this doesn’t seems surprising. But the whole blind is really funny, I’m sorry for her.

  13. truebritt8 says

    No idea — but really? He didn’t understand what exchanging numbers means?
    That’s the universal language of hooking up! Sounds like an excuse for not being interested!

    • Dirty Squirrel says

      If he doesn’t speak English, he has no idea what is going on. He’s not used to the forwardness of Western women.

    Actress: Hailee Steinfeld (although she doesn’t seem the type to do so)

    I have been following them since pre-debut so was super excited to see them perform at the AMAs. Twitter was chaotic, as was periscope, and was so hard to keep up with all the social media channels, I had like so many screens open. Its kind of funny though they did mention on Vlive it was like a dream how all these American artists were coming up to them and they probably thought it was for a collab lol.
