Part 6 focuses on BTS member Jimin. He is one of three younger band members and was the last to join the group. Before he joined BTS, he was already an accomplished contemporary dancer. He has since been their main dancer and lead vocalist, having learned vocals after joining the group. Park Jimin (Jimin) Enneagram Two | The “Loving” Person I think Jimin is most likely an Enneagram Two, as do most people online who know or think they know the Enneagram. The perceptions of others, of course, does not determine your Enneagram type. At the same time, it is intriguing that whether in Korean, Eng ..read more

Part 5 focuses on Kim Namjoon (stage name RM), the first BST member, BTS’ team leader, and main rapper. He is also an accomplished composer and music producer, having written or co-written most of BTS’ music from the beginning and a member of the prestigious Korea Music Copyright Association. I start the blogs about BTS member’s Enneagram types with Kim Namjoon (RM) for many reasons. First, he is the BTS member for whom I could find the largest quantity of relevant information. Why such an abundance of information about Namjoon? First, he is the BTS leader and has been from their start; peop ..read more

Why I am even writing about BTS member’s Enneagram types? There are several reasons I am even writing blogs on BTS members’ types, particularly in light of the fact that I fully believe we can’t accurately type other people. We don’t know what really occurs within them, and Enneagram type is about the inner dynamics of thinking, feeling, and behaving and is most closely linked to a person’s motivational structure. In addition, I also believe and teach that typing someone we don’t know, and especially public figures, is problematic because what we think they may be like from how they appear i ..read more

BTS and the Enneagram: Basic Instincts Part 3 It is in the one-to-one instinctual area where BTS has flourished. The one-to-one instinct  focuses on individuals in relation to one other person, affection, intimacy, bonding and attraction. This instinct is also referred to as the intimacy or sexual instinct. This instinct also involves emotionality, often intense emotionality. As BTS often says at the start of their performances, but also at interspersed moments, “Let’s go!” Intimacy Intimacy between BTS members The seven BTS members got to know each other from an early age, initially sh ..read more

It is the social instinctual arena where BTS has made its musical mark far beyond South Korea and innovated and prospered. The social instinct includes issues related to belonging, community, groups and teams, social relationships, and influence, but also inclusivity, social justice, social intelligence, the use of concepts, and overall coherence. BTS flourishes in all of these, so what can we learn from them? In this blog, I am triangulating my BTS knowledge with my three decades gaining Enneagram expertise, but also my nearly four decades as a behavioral scientist. BTS as a team Teaming is ..read more

Why would I write a blog about BTS, the ever-popular, vastly creative K-pop “boy band,” and one of the most successful musical groups globally? First, I love their music and their performances, and I am fascinated by the seven BTS members themselves. Second, I am deeply intrigued by their rise globally and how they have been able to do this. In this way, I’ve also been exploring parallels between BTS’s popularity and that of Taylor Swift, particularly in terms of social context and their appeal. From an Enneagram perspective, the three basic instincts  – self-preservation, social, and o ..read more

Over-identification with type

On request from the recent Shift network Global Enneagram Summit, I did a session on the importance of not identifying with our Enneagram type. To me, the dangers of identifying with type seemed obvious, and I reflected on what might be useful for me to say. The words flowed out quite easily, so I thought I’d share some of them here. As the Enneagram is currently expanding exponentially, this topic is both urgent and timely. The quest for “Who Am I?” The quest for the answer to “Who Am I” is nothing new, but it may be increasing with the increasing uncertainty in the world: pandemic and post ..read more

What’s in a name and does it matter? You decide! When we speak about and teach the nine numbers of the Enneagram, how do we call the numbers: type? style? point? There are other names sometimes used, but this list is a good start. Why and why not Enneagram type? “Type” means a category of people or things that have something in common; a particular kind, class or group. Certainly, the nine Enneagram types fit this definition, with each type having a specific and shared worldview, mental and emotional pattern, many behavior patterns with variations expressed through the three subtypes of the ..read more
