First pic:
The safest home is the grave
The absolute freedom of language/speech is the death of language itself
Talent is a different expression of interest
But it’s a persistent/persevering life-risking (*as in putting ones life into it) interest.
You can’t be cruel/brutal without love
Searching for a way of love/way to love is already a betrayal of/towards love
Life’s fireworks that occur/erupt when we don’t believe in a god/deity, transcendence, or afterlife
The people who don’t have talent/are talentless think that their disorder or disorganization is freedom
In second & third pics:
Make sure to put the trash bags in the bin
Please, i told you to put the trash bags in the bin

““I love edges/the periphery
[t/n: 언저리 can also figuratively mean “a part far from the center or essence of a certain area or state”]
around/on edges/the periphery, there are bruises formed
One should not use the difficulties of the times/era as an excuse for self-indulgence nor blame oneself for it.
Every time i see both sides in states of carousing/squandering/exulting with dark and serious facial expressions, i get sores on my tongue*
[t/n could be a way of expressing how one gets tired from that sight but idk]
Its not to become trees that seeds grow
One shouldn’t ruin one’s life because of a purpose
Poem/poetry- the moment of ignition or the moment of flight/soaring
But don’t call that a transcendence or liberation/nirvana
Think about it, your pain/suffering can’t make a single leaf green
A lifetime as an artist is similar to a beginner’s driving of a car
One constantly/ceaselessly goes astray/wanders off track, but, each time, one comes back
Everyday/ordinary life goes from feeling to fact and from danger to stability
Art is the opposite
One can’t retrieve one’s own body/corpse for oneself/on one’s own
Perhaps that could be the root of sadness

Story 1
Is his album almost finished.
Are these spoilers? 👀👀👀
I wake up humming his unreleased track. I want it finished and released now lmao
Also – this instrumental Mates is really groovy. I’ve convinced myself that RM4 will be groovy lol
I’m glad we get that pic of him in his concert fit on the grid & Namjoon remains as unbothered as ever

lol Trash bag and Trash bag pt.2 is in the making ig
It seems like he’s giving us more notes on philosophy which is very much my cup of tea and at this point I’m wondering whether they’re spoilers. I know we’ll have to wait months (hopefully not years!), but I really really can’t wait to hear this album…
I’m glad he didn’t let yesterday’s discourse affect him.
I like how he does photo dumps after posting some to previous stories. 😊
God, I really can’t wait for his new album
Joon wins the IDGAF 😎 contest. Love his new selfie! He’s recording more new masterpieces! That art exhibit and the graffiti writing is interesting and intriguing.
Why I wanna rub his head so bad
what it feels like every time namjoon photo dumps and i’m convinced all of these posts are spoilers
(poem is by [poet yi seongbok (pain that is spoken is not ](https://m.blog.naver.com/PostView.naver?isHttpsRedirect=true&blogId=kissrainst&logNo=10168905167)[pain](https://m.blog.naver.com/PostView.naver?isHttpsRedirect=true&blogId=kissrainst&logNo=10168905167) – love w/o reflection is violence
Not Namjoon posting an instrumental. He really is something else 😂. Life goes on.
unbothered. moisturized. happy. in his lane. focused. flourishing. love that for him.
POMICHODAIII NAMJOON 😌🔥
Can’t wait to hear his new music!
Sweeping it up and then taking out the trash, love it!
I can’t wait for Namjoon’s new music, his exploration on themes of love after LY, Map Of The Soul, BE and Proof eras, after Indigo and the beginning of Chapter 2 will be incredible.
Does anybody know what text is Namjoon quoting in his post?
It really reminded me of some of Haegeum’s lyrics!
>The absolute freedom of language/speech is the death of language itself
>Talent is a different expression of interest
>But it’s a persistent/persevering life-risking (*as in putting ones life into it) interest.
vs
>The freedom to express whatever one wants
>Perhaps that becomes the reason for someone’s death
And also:
>The people who don’t have talent/are talentless think that their disorder or disorganization is freedom
vs
>this song is simply freeing the forbidden
>But I truly hope you differentiate freedom from self-indulgence
I’m truly curious about this!
The second post about the trash bags also sounded very annoyed lmao
I love him just posting random stuff he likes or finds interesting! keeping instagram casual 😎
Unbothered king heck yeah
The spider web detail on the collar. I want that shirt.
I stg this is why I love this man. He sees everything, but chooses to respond by not responding in the most eloquent ways.
As someone who struggles to understand poetry I do appreciate it when Joon posts excerpts because its in even more snippet form forces me to try and understand. Also, he’s looking gooood lately. Edit: who am I kidding. He looks good permanently.
I see some people on Twitter and maybe a few here think these are Namjun’s lyrics—just to clarify, these are some aphorisms by Lee Seong-bok, a poet he’s read before!
However, I can totally see him being inspired lyrically 👀 I’m really excited for the album and I’d be thrilled if this was the vibe.
“Its not to become trees that seeds grow One shouldn’t ruin one’s life because of a purpose”
I love that part. Goes well with some of his own lyrics.
