"Good morning everyone! Welcome to Bighit Entertainment first press conferrence!" The host in the event finally announced.

Reporters started to open up their laptops, their each cameras and some opened up their cellphones.

"To begin with, let us hear first Bangtan Sonyeondan Members' Introductions," the host continued  speaking.

Namjoon cleared his throat and tapped gently the tiny microphone in front of him. He then spoke, "Hi. I'm the leader of BTS, Rap Monster."

After that very short introduction, Namjoon nodded at Yoongi. Yoongi took that as his cue to speak so he leaned forward closer to the microphone which was also placed in front of him.

"Hi. I'm Suga of BTS," Yoongi introduced shortly.

Hoseok took his turn after Yoongi's simple introduction. He smiled brightly at the cameras as he released the positive energy inside of him. "Hello. I'm J-hope of BTS," he said as he showed a tantalizing smile.

Next one to speak was Jin. "안녕하세요!!! I'm the eldest of BTS, Jin," he said as he projected himself to the cameras for about 5 seconds.

[REVIEW: "Annyeonghaseyo" means "Hello or Hi." It may also means "Good Morning."]

Jimin, who was sitting beside the eldest latter, he also leaned forward to the microphone to speak. "I'm Jimin of BTS," he said shyly.

Jimin turned his gaze to Taehyung who was undoubtedly shivering. He was obvious that he's nervous.

Taehyung swallowed before he decided to speak. "안녕하세요!!! I'm V of BTS," he introduced monotonously.

As he introduced himself, flashes from the camera blinded them. It was too much for a human could take. Jungkook waited for the right time to speak. As he noticed that the flashes had minimized, he leaned forward.

"안녕하세요! I'm the 막내 of BTS, Jungkook," he simply introduced.

[REVIEW: 'Maknae' means 'youngest.']

There was a short silence after that as the host was waiting for the cameras to minimize their flashes. "Okay, for those who have questions, you can ask now," the host clearly enunciated.

As soon as people heard that, they raised their hands as quickly as possible, proving that they really prepared questions beforehand just to question them. Fear started engulfing Taehyung's body. He really was nervous. He was thinking what would be the questions that were need to be answered. This was his first time too and he doesn't know anything about it.

The host pointed at someone that was definitely owned by a man. That 'man' stood up. "Is V in Bangtan Sonyeondan really is Kim Taehyung? The famous arsonist?" He questioned.

It was Namjoon who took the chance to answer. "I'm sorry but the question was a little bit harsh but yes. V is indeed Kim Taehyung and now a member of Bangtan Sonyeondan," he clarified.

Namjoon came out prepared. A real leader indeed, Yoongi thought on his mind, nodding slowly as he agreed.

A woman stood up from the crowd. She looked like a reporter that was belonged to some famous news company. "Is V really is responsible for the burned houses that were complained by the citizens?"

"Not all. But almost of it. However, he did it not on purpose but because he has Pyromania," Yoongi answered.

The woman reporter was puzzled at what Yoongi has just said. So, she asked, "I'm sorry. What's Pyromania?"

"It's a mental-illness that makes a person having desires to fire or anything related to it," Yoongi continued explaining.

Someone raised a hand and stood up quickly. It was another woman. "If he has Pyromania, how can he debut as an idol? Wouldn't it dangerous both to you and to the company?"

Yoongi answered again, "The company saw his talent, passion to music and hardwork and that's the reason he debuted as an idol. His illness is not a hindrance or anything for becoming an idol. Besides, he trained for a year before he even debuted. And at that time, he had his therapy. And I believe that there's no more cases that houses were been burned. Am I right?"

All BTS members looked at him in awe. Even though Yoongi was a straight-forward and a harsh person but he has a soft heart. He doesn't let anyone buzzing negative words about his friends and the company. That's Min Yoongi.

Everyone silenced.

"Is there anymore questions?" The hosts broke the ongoing silence.

One guy stood up. "I have questions for Kim Taehyung!"

Taehyung swallowed. "Yes," he replied.

"Are you aware of the negativity about you and your group roaming around the internet?"

Taehyung nodded in response. "Yes. I am well-aware," he answered.

BTS automatically swung their heads to Taehyung's direction. He knew?!, They all thought.

"Since when did you know about it?"

"Ever since. I am always active to social medias. Even though our fans tried everything to prevent me from knowing all about it but I always have my ways," Taehyung revealed while nodding slightly.

Everyone nodded at that answer. Some typed on their laptops and some were talking something important to each other.

5 seconds after, another guy stood up. "To stop all of this, what are your plans?" That 'guy' asked.

It was Jimin who answered the question. "Since our company knew all about this, they have decided to give lawsuits on artist rights violation. They will give criminal punishment against cases collected since our debut day with no mercy or any compromises. If not yet proven, they will be held under investigation. Bighit Entertainment will continue to collect evidences of violation cases," Jimin explained thoroughly.

With that answer, everyone gasped in disbelief. Bighit Entertainment was really protective to their artists. They have given them enough protection from netizens who violated the artist rights violation.

"Has anyone have anymore questions?" The host interrupted the silence.

One woman stood up. "Ever since you implemented this, does Bighit Entertainment have any leads for those who attacked you by any means?" That woman from the left side of the audience asked.

Jin took his turn to answer the pending question. "Actually, we have leads already. There are so many of them and we already started to email these people. For those who haven't emailed yet, sooner or later, they'll recieve an email coming from the company. After that, police will come after them for they will get investigated."

The crowd went silent. It seemed like they were focus on making on their reports that will become the highlight of today's news.

"Any more questions?" The hosts asked once again. For a normal person, the host started to be annoying, asking the same question all the time but for the people in that press-con was acting like it's normal for them. It was natural for a host to ask that question all the time. It's his job to do that.

No one stood up or even raised a hand to speak. Then, it only means one thing. The press-conference has officially finished.

"Alright. The press-conference for this day is over. Uhm..." The host trailed off as he looked at the boys. "Bangtan Sonyeondan, can you please stand up for the last picture taking in this event?"

The seven latter nodded and stood up. They all projected at the cameras in front of them. Flashes were visible that it almost blinded them.

After a few minutes, they exited the big platform as they headed to their car.

As soon as they made themselves comfortable on their seats, Jimin rubbed his eyes gently. The flashes were hurting his eyes. He squinted his eyes slowly. He looked at Yoongi who was also doing the same thing. He then turned to Hoseok who was scrolling down on his phone. Then, he turned to Namjoon who was leaning down on his seat to take a short nap. Seokjin, on the other hand, was having a snack together with the maknae, Jungkook as the two talked to each other about something really funny. While Taehyung was already closing his eyes, taking a nap already.

Jimin smiled sweetly. This is it guys. This is the start. This is the start of Bangtan Sonyeondan. This is the start of BTS.
