On June 15, an ARMY living in Brazil, wrote on her Twitter, "Today in my school there was a lecture about depression and anxiety. A lot of people got pretty emotional. In the end, they handed out a paper with a piece of Magic Shop. I was really happy that BTS' lyrics were part of this awareness for the whole school." 
 
Along with this writing, she uploaded a picture of the paper that has Magic Shop's lyrics written in the Portuguese language.

Below is the part that was quoted in this paper.


I know you're hesitating
Because even if you tell your true heart
It all comes back as scars in the end
I won't say anything obvious like 'Cheer up'
Instead, I'll tell you my story
 
I always wanted to be the best
So I was always impatient and nervous
Comparing myself to others became my life
And my ambition, which used to be my weapon, became a leash that suffocates me
 
But then, as I looked back
I feel like I actually didn't wish to be the best
I wanted to console and move your heart
I want to take away your sadness and pain
 
Would you believe me
If I say I was afraid of everything too?
 
-Magic Shop, BTS
