Last year, BTS and VLive+ were successfully held program “BTS Bon Voyage” in North Europe that was broadcasted in V App. This year they came back again with the new Season for BTS Bon Voyage in Hawaii. BTS Bon Voyage is a program, where BTS have a special trip abroad. During this trip they had to care everything by themselves without the help of their managers.
Since it’s aired in VLive+, for watching the package of BTS Bon Voyage Season 2, we have to buy coins in V App. The package is worth for 800 coins. There are 18 broadcasts that consist of 8 Episodes of BTS members’ trip, 8 episodes of Behind Cam, 1 video broadcast of BTS commentary live and photo essay of their trip.
The program package of BTS Bon Voyage Season 2 is really worth to buy because this package is like the package guide tour in Hawaii. Here, BTS showed us where the best places to explore, to stay, to hangout, to eat and other things we can do when we are in Hawaii. They will show us different places to explore in each episode.
Let’s explore Hawaii with BTS
There was a reason why Bon Voyage Season 2 was held in Hawaii. In BTS Bon Voyage Season I, all BTS members were asked where they wanted to travel to. Then they mostly answered want to go to Hawaii. So, V Live granted their wishes and they were so excited to explore Hawaii together for the first time.
In Hawaii they visited two Islands, Big Island and Oahu Island. In each island, they spent their trip for three days. The first day in Big Island, they started their trip by snorkeling in the ocean. We could see here how beautiful Hawaii under the sea and how BTS members all enjoyed swimming and diving there.
On the second day in Big Island, they continued their trip by visiting Akaka Waterfall in the day, seeing the beautiful sunset in Mauna Kea and enjoying the sky night in Observatory in Mauna Kea. Last day in Big Island, they were having a volcano tour. It was such one of the best experiences they had in Hawaii because in volcano tour they were able to see the active volcano in Hawaii from above by riding helicopter.
After enjoying their trip in Big Island, they spent another three days in Oahu Island. They had so many interesting activities while in Oahu Island. They had sharks tour, where they met the sharks in front their eyes. Naturally, it is the safe tour, because to meet the sharks, all BTS members are swimming inside a cage, while the sharks were swimming the outside. At first, Rap Monster and J-Hope were scared that the sharks would attack them. But once they dived in, they really enjoyed it and found it cool.
The next day, they were having their morning together in Kualoa Beach to have breakfast and play some games. In the day, they rode ATV in Kualao Ranch. Here, they visited the place where “King Kong: Skull Island” were filmed and a Dinosaurs Museum, where we can see the imitation of Dinosaurs’ skeleton. After that in the end of the day, they had cultural trip by visiting Polynesian Cultural Center to watch the folk dance and song.
Last day in Oahu Island, they spent their time by surfing on the ocean. Before start to surf, they first learnt it by the expert who can speak Korean. So, it’s easy for them to understand it. Then they started to conquer the wave in Waikiki beach. All BTS members really enjoyed surfing that they realized why people like to do this kind of water sport.
More than just a trip, it’s friendship trip
The goals of BTS Bon Voyage Season 2 were to renew the friendship among members and the meaning of each other. So everyday during the trip, they will be divided into 3 group to spend 3 hours together.
During friendship trip, the partner was always changed everyday. The staffs decided the partner with many different ways like from picking some food, taking a paper, playing mini bowling etc. However in the last day BTS members requested to have unusual partner, like Suga paired with V.
They may not use their personal cash to buy food and souvenirs during broadcast. The staff gave them some certain money. However to get the money, they had to do a mission or games. And the amount will be given differently according to the order of the winners of the games and mission. The first winner of course will get the highest, whereas the second and the last will be lower.
BTS members spent their friendship trip by searching the best place to eat according to the references they searched through Naver. They ate both local food and Korean food. No wonder, because when we are travelling, we should try the local food but sometimes we miss also our daily meals from our country.
They were having so much fun during the friendship trip. Not only search for food, they also played around together, got souvenir to mark their friendship, and even had serious conversations about their life and their future goals. From their conversation, we can learn many things such as hard work, feeling grateful for what we had, the meaning of life, and the meaning of friendship itself. In sort, their friendships always make me envy.
Boys in fun
As I mentioned earlier, BTS Bon Voyage Season 2 give us episodes of behind cam. This behind cam episode shows something that didn’t appear in regular episodes. Just like the name “behind cam”, it shows us what BTS members do when the camera looks “off” but actually it’s on. It could be something funnier or more serious and it will also make the scenes in regular episode becomes more detail.
For example, in regular episode Rap Monster asked Jin about definition of happiness for him and the reason why he asked him will be shown in behind cam. Behind cam also shows what BTS members do before and after woke up. Mostly in behind cam, they show us the video that being recorded by each of BTS members. In last episode, behind cam shows the interview of BTS members about the trip and also message for ARMY, their fans.
There are so many funny moments in BTS Bon Voyage Season 2 because we will be entertained by BTS members’ funny behaviors and acts during the trip. We could see how they enjoy the trip either as small group or as big group of 7 people. Take a look in episode 1, when they were having fun making a “music video” by themselves in shopping center in Hawaii that will make you laugh watching their funny acts.
Finally, BTS Bon Voyage Season 2 is worth to watch because it contains a lot of references for someone who is willing to travel in Hawaii or doesn’t know anything about Hawaii. It gives us insight about how good Hawaii is and what we can do and eat here. Even after watching this, I bought similar food they ate in this program and went to the beach in my country to spend my holiday. And I hope someday I will be able go to Hawaii.
