Heya!
It has been quite a long time I haven't updated my part 2 guide, I have some time since summer vacation is here, so why not update the whole saga by creating a third part? This guide compiles the love yourself albums and the map of the soul one.
Edit of 20th Oct.2019: Oops I delayed a bit too much the launching of the third article but here we go!

Please do not forget to check out part 1, part 2 and "how to spot a fake signed kpop album", this guide is not complete without the other two articles.


Part 1 contains 1st explanation + albums from 2 COOL 4 SKOOL until HYYH pt.2.
Part 2 contains Young Forever to You Never Walk alone



Little reminder of part 1:
The signature order IS and IS ALWAYS:
Top left: Jin ; Top center: Rapmonster ; Top right: Suga ; Middle left: V ; Middle right: Jimin ; Bottom left: J-Hope ; Bottom right : Jungkook.
ALWAYS THAT ORDER.


LOVE YOURSELF: HER

Onto the 2018 album, which contains the famous DNA and Mic drop which enhanced BTS's international popularity. Fakes have been floating a lot on websites, and seem to be on ebay the ones that were sold. Well here again a little comparison of real vs fakes that I've encountered, updated with a lot of delay since I no longer buy them myself LOL.




1. The pen pressure is exactly the same throughout all of the signatures. Suga's signature is the one that is the most off looking, as it normally currently doesn't have the middle scribble, which looks very unnatural here. Jimin's upper part of the signature is usually more curved, here the curve is too "sharp". V's signature with the curves are done in a weird way and have lost their usual "trajectory".

2. The signatures are way too small, too far away from the borders, the pen pressure is the same for all of the signatures, which really shows that it was signed by only one person.

3. Same as above.

4.It looks like a little girl who had a dying pen trying to mimic all of the signatures. Pen pressure is the same everywhere, not well located signatures, and details of the usual signatures have been lost.

5.Same pen pressure, signatures seem to have been stretched out more than usual and have lost their normal characteristics. RM's signature has been the most known for being constant, but here the curves and strokes are hardly achieved.
