Just want to recommend everyone go read the interview part after checking out the photos. I had a few favorite parts.
One of the questions was about how Tae prepared for his various roles as an idol and musician, and Tae replied that he made an effort to try out various experiences and then looked to see which ones matched him. I love that about Tae, his openness to experience what the world has to offer.
And the one about his wishes for 2026, one of which was that ARMY would accept that the album, comeback stage and concert will express everything they have for it is authentically them. I know that the members have talked of the pressures of this comeback, and any artist would want their fans to like their work. But it is important that the artist has a connection to it, too. I have seen more expressions this time about this album truly being the members project and their desires that ARMY accept this work. Balancing the choices between what is popular and trending versus staying true to oneself has to be the agony of an artist working in an industry that is so driven by numbers.

Gorgeous as usual 😍
it’s really fascinating comparing his body shape now post-enlistment with how he looked during say, Butter era (thinking of those Bangtan episodes where they’re comparing arm circumferences and Tae wanting to bulk up). He and Namjoon really went from noodly boys to very solid beefy young men over time 😛
