Google x BTS Quiz Part 2

Google is currently holding a quiz event in tie-up with the new BTS album "ARIRANG". If you search for "BTS", a little bottle will appear, so if you haven't tried it yet, give it a go!

I love quizzes too, so I've been doing it, but I was really struggling with this question this time...!

A Bangtan song with "love and movies"... this was the first thing that came to mind.

The next one that came up was this.

But that's not it either ( ;∀;)

"Wait, was there a song with popcorn or movies in the lyrics?"
"Bangtan is all about Coffee, Converse High, and bus stops, right!?"
I was struggling while searching, and I laughed when I saw international ARMYs also confused, thinking it was "Lights" lol

I thought it was a movie theme song, so I tried entering "Film Out" and "Your Eyes Tell", but those were wrong too. I mean, thank you for having so many Japanese songs related to movies!

The correct answer is...

In the end, the answer was this. Oh, now that you mention it, it was a movie theater... right?

Still haven't solved it

The next hurdle is entering the answer ( ;∀;)

I had a bitter experience where I was asked for the ARMY birthday in the previous question, and "July 9", "7/9", and "20140709" were all rejected, so I desperately entered "July 9" and it worked. Google engineers are American, after all...

I hesitated for a moment. Where should I put the title!?
Also, since I'm a copyright nerd and a karaoke nerd, I have a lot of weird song title spellings in my head, so the mysterious incantation "Chagungottururu..." crossed my mind ( ;∀;)

• KOMCA notation

  • JAG EUN GEOS DEUL EUL WI HAN SI (BOY WITH LUV)

• Karaoke notation (JoySound)

  • Chagun Gottururu Wihan Si (Boy with Luv)

By the way, Bangtan often refers to it by its Hangul name, so if you remember that, it's easier to notice when they're talking about "Boy with Luv" and makes listening easier (Song title TMI).

As a result, "Boy with Luv" worked!
I also received some encouraging words saying that "Boys with love" worked too! You wouldn't forgive the date, but you're so broad-minded about that...!! ( ﾟДﾟ)

I'm looking forward to the third installment!

I intended to make a brief note in tweet size, but it ended up being half-heartedly long, and I'm reflecting on that a bit ( ;∀;) No good.

The next Google quiz update is 3/16, and it looks like that will be the final episode.
I'm really looking forward to seeing what kind of questions will be asked!

Bonus: A "Lights" making-of video?

There's a video where Yoongi successfully tosses popcorn into Hobi's mouth and they burst out laughing; based on their outfits, it's from the "Lights" making-of, but I don't know where it's included. Maybe the 2019 Season's Greetings, or the limited edition making-of DVD...
I'll try searching for it diligently again ( *´艸｀)
