These are the notes I compiled while writing the fifth book of the Answer series, From Now On (https://archiveofourown.org/works/18846865/chapters/44728513)

This archive is for new ARMY or for ARMY who are curious about what was going on in the last calendar year. I have similar archives on this site for other calendar years as well, so please feel free to check them out.

Also, this is a living archive, so if you find errors or would like to add anything, please reach out to me on Twitter at celesteavonne. My DMs are always open, and I love this stuff, so educate me!

For starters, here is a basic resource I use for reference with BTS calendar dates: https://btsdiary.com/about/schedule/new-schedule/

6 June Taehyung posts this video, which looks like it’s in Vegas but it’s actually Nuri Dream Square: https://twitter.com/BTS_twt/status/1004356244147089408 Then he posts this video of young Tan-ah, which may mean the above video is older and he’s just going through his archived photos: https://twitter.com/BTS_twt/status/1004357379624845312

He also posts this: https://twitter.com/BTS_twt/status/1004681068182507520 in which Seokjin photo-bombs him. Taehyung seems annoyed in the video, but he posts it with the purple heart.

8 June KBS Music Bank, 2018 BTS FESTA: Interlude Ceremony (Jin is MC with Solbin.

It’s meant to show Solbin and Seokjin, but you’ll notice… Taehyung jumps right in there, completely blocking Solbin out: https://youtu.be/FQ2S3XBZ8Rg) Jin provides meals for everyone. https://twitter.com/BTS_twt/status/1005312325346193408 (which means his restaurant is in operation) Jin as MC: https://twitter.com/BTS_twt/status/1005034925769220096 Fake Love, Music Bank edition: https://twitter.com/BTS_twt/status/1004653155496308737

It was posted on June 9th, but they’re all dancing in heavy winter coats, which leads me to believe this video was filmed earlier in the year.

JHope posts this for Fake Love’s 11th win: https://twitter.com/BTS_twt/status/100545389256434892810 June SBS Inkigayo, 2018 BTS FESTA : Rehearsal Stage Cam Rapline releases Ddaeng: https://twitter.com/bts_bighit/status/1005826959002107905 Here’s a video of them practicing Ddaeng: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S6NH1l_Q61Y In it, Yoongi has dark hair, which corroborates my above statement about the Rehearsal Cam Video, in which Yoongi has blond hair.

I think that they are taking Yeontan to where ever he would be kept while they’re gone to Saipan, because Taehyung also posts these pictures: https://twitter.com/BTS_twt/status/1009633475488505856 (Hoseok with Yeontan) https://twitter.com/BTS_twt/status/1009702385407557632 (Yeontan in his carrier between the seats) Tan-ah in the elevator: https://twitter.com/BTS_twt/status/1009716048478683138

27 June Seokjin and Yeontan: https://twitter.com/BTS_twt/status/1011921856624975872 which means they were probably home in Seoul by this time. Which I think also means that Seokjin and Taehyung went together to pick up Yeontan from where ever he was kenneled.29 June Jungkook filming Jimin in Saipan: https://twitter.com/BTS_twt/status/1012914083597701120
