LINK: d4 los angeles
This was the final concert in Los Angeles. We were blessed to have four nights and my friends hooked me up with tickets to go to three of them.
I picked up Linda and on the drive to SoFi stadium, we talked about how Alyssa has been rather distant with us. It just felt so strange considering she wanted to be with us all the time and then after the whole suite debacle on D1, she ghosted us shortly after.
Whatever.
We got to the venue around 1300 and I was starving per usual since I didn’t eat breakfast. As soon as we went through the VIP entrance, I headed towards the food area.
I ordered the bulgogi nachos. The meat was really sweet and salty but we ate it anyway because I knew that we’d have to walk another five long flights to get to the floor in a couple of hours.
To kill time, I played Pokémon Go with other ARMY and in my delusional state of mind, I thought that maybe RM would join us in a raid. FYI: RM does play Pokémon Go too.
I also passed out a bunch of freebies and gave most of them away, which really made me happy. I saw that there were other ARMY there only willing to trade… that didn’t sit right with me. I didn’t care if people gave me something in return or not.
By 1700, we were seated and this was my POV of the stage. I was closer to the end where there was an extension of the stage, so I could see them really up close and personal. It was to the point where I felt a bit verklempt.
One by one, they came out for soundcheck.
Even though this wasn’t my first soundcheck, tell me why I felt shy and nervous all the sudden?
J-Hope is an ambassador for Louis Vuitton. He’s puttin’ in that work.
They’re… so… close… but not close enough. LOL
And Jungkook is taking a picture of ARMY. I think it’s sweet that he does that.
Even though it wasn’t Jungkook’s birthday, they still had the birthday matcha cake available, so of course I had to partake in this. It actually tasted pretty good.
When we went to the bathroom, we bumped into Andrea, who hitched a ride with Alyssa and her husband. When Andrea told Alyssa and her husband to come over toward us, I could see a scowl on her face, as if she wasn’t happy to see us. To make matters worse, her husband had a foochie face too. It made me wonder what she told him about us…
I’m not sure what happened soon after but Alyssa wanted to take selfies with us and hang out for a bit. I was thinking that maybe she was over whatever was bothering her and was ready to join the crew again. We waited for Maria, since her husband was dropping her off, before Linda and I headed back to our seats.
I could spend a lifetime watching him.
Le sigh.
When J-Hope pulled Jungkook’s jacket to the side to expose Jungkook’s topless physique, I just about passed out. He is a specimen.
During the middle of the concert, I saw one of my friends, an actress who’s been in a bunch of television shows. Even though her seat was closer up, her view wasn’t as good as ours since we were right near the side where all the BTS singers came by. She ditched her seat and stood next to me, until security told her that she had to go back to her seat.
Humina humina. I could literally see the tiny beads of sweat rolling off his chest. Just look at this specimen.
Linda and I got baptized when Jungkook sprayed the water on us.
I couldn’t believe we got splashed. This was the best night, EVAR!
OMG, I even got to see them pass by during IDOL.
After the IDOL parade, everyone sang happy birthday to RM. He was given a Pokémon party hat to wear.
I hate when they sing Into the Sun because that’s their last song and they leave the floor.
Linda and I stayed a bit until they kicked us out. We figured that since there was going to be hella traffic, might as well try to wait it out.
These were the freebies I got from people. They are so damn creative!
I’ve been sharing the freebies that I received with other ARMY. Sharing is caring.
Later that evening, Andrea texted us and said that Alyssa was really disturbed that we had soundcheck. She kept asking Andrea where we were seated and how much we paid. Andrea told her that she wasn’t sure where we were sitting and that she forgot how much we paid. She didn’t tell her that we went to the concert on D3 because she might have imploded.
I, personally, had no luck getting tickets to the concerts. It was because of my friends, I was able to go. I lost the Ticketmaster war every single time and even though I looked every day for resale soundcheck tickets on StubHub, I wasn’t able to snag any. Luckily, Linda was able to find the tickets for us, otherwise I wouldn’t have gone to the last two concerts. I swear, that woman has the best luck.
*UPDATE* It’s been over two months and Alyssa is still ghosting us. It’ll be interesting to see if she suddenly reappears once BTS announces their tour dates for 2027… or not.
