BTS’s staff details touching encounter with ‘hardworking’ boys
BTS’s humble and respectful attitude towards a former member of their staff has caught the attention of ARMYs on social media and ARMYs are in a frenzy over the adorable admission.
It all began once screenshots from the anonymous worker’s comment were shared to Twitter.
A translation of the entire passage reads, “In December of 2019, I worked as a day laborer in the production department for the Tokopedia advertisement set. One of the tasks for the production department was to clean and do small random tasks. Because they were tight on time, the filming was divided into Set A and Set B. I worked on Set B, which was not the actual advertisement but just the still cut filming.”
“Because they didn’t have a lot of time, me and another staff member of the production team had to play the roles of some of the members who were filming on Set A and hold different poses such as doing high-fives or putting my hand on their shoulders with the members in Set B for the still cuts. The director told the members, ‘You can just high five with this person here’ or ‘if you put your arm on their shoulder we will edit in the other members later’ and every time the director explained something, the BTS members would bow to me or shake my hand and say ‘Thank you very much’!’”
“V in particular would greet and smile at the other production team staff members before starting, which made a great memory for us. My hand was hurting a bit from doing high fives several times and the members would come up to me first and say ‘It hurts right?”
“We are sorry! Please hold on for just a bit longer!’ and it truly warmed my heart. Another one of my tasks was to bring them the chicken delivery to their waiting room. When I went up to give them the food, J-Hope, who was receiving a massage from their trainer, said ‘Yo~ chicken! Thank you!’ which gave me a lot of strength.”
“Lastly, after the filming was over, my last task was to mop the floor. While I was washing the mop in the bathroom, Jungkook came in. Because Jungkook was a world star and I was just a staff member, I wasn’t sure if I could say something to him. Jungkook, who was washing hands, bowed deeply to me and said ‘thank you for your hard work’. Being so surprised, I blurted out, ‘Ah thank you! You worked hard too. It’s such an honor. Have a good day!’”
“Smiling, Jungkook responded, ‘Ah…well the day is now over. Thank you! Have a good day!’ and left the bathroom. BTS are stars that even show respect and manners to part-time workers like me…They are so amazing and I respect them.”
