Shadouh Lopez and Zia Jones, Filipino-American ARMYs, share how they found healing with BTS.

This story is published in partnership with SoJannelleTV, a magazine show about Filipinos in North America– a weekly magazine show hosted and produced by Filipino-American media pioneer Jannelle So Perkins – we also found out that music has a way of helping people process complex emotions. Sometimes, those breakthroughs come just when people need someone to reach out to them with a helping hand.

“It just felt so natural in a way like as if we had known each other for years. But we just met, so it was so amazing,” Jones shared with So-Perkins for the latter’s TV program, which airs US-wide on cable channels The Filipino Channel and ANC, as well as on local Southern CA digital channel KNET 25.1.For Lopez, she believes she found the music of BTS right when she needed it the most. Her husband had died in 2019 of a rare form of cancer.

“I googled, and then the Pandora’s box of BTS opened, and I started finding them as a source of healing,” said Lopez. Jones said the process of recovery has been difficult, but she finds motivation in watching the band’s livestreams on the V Live app. She said she finds Jimin’s voice comforting and is able to eat a meal easier when she hears his voice.“I find myself being able to go to sleep on my own just by listening to their music,” she said. “I still have my days. I miss my husband every day, it’s never gonna go away, but I go to a happy place. I go to my ‘Bangtan,’ and it is a good diversion for me.
