It has been a year already... time flies really fast. I still can remember the day one when all the admins held our first meeting, decided either should we go with NJTTW themed agency or should we choose other options. I personally don't know much about the show but then here I am, being BOWIES' six time producer.

On that day, the name Book of West wasn't our first option. As much as I can remember, there are literally four or five other names. But I'm glad we chose Book of West, then the members back then suggested us to make it short, BOWIES. Such a cute, meaningful name.

It has been a year. It has been six seasons of Bowies. Hundreds of applicants, hundreds of members. From our first trip to Taipei, moving to Osaka, spending christmas in Singapore and Malaysia, an unforgetable ride from Seoul to Bangkok, having fun inside Bowies' sitcom universe, and the latest remarkable trip to Jeju.

We've been together for six season and it's nothing but a fun ride with you guys.

To all members of Bowies from the first season to the latest, thank you for your participation, for your time and energy you've spent with us. For lack of sleep and brain damage caused by the mission, for the chaos in every game, for the neverending support and promotion!!!!! Oh God. What are we without you guys?

For the pds and writers, where do I begin? You guys are rockstars and I'm happy to be your co-workerㅡ no, your brother. The dedication, time, ideas, laughs and tears.. I couldn't thank each of you more, but here I am, thank you. Thank you for being the best caretaker in the whole world (REAL, CANON!!)!!!! I love you guys so much. Pleas don't skip your meal three times a day. Stay healthy cause if you're sick, who's going to take care of our Bowies?:(

Once again, Happy 1st Anniversary Book of West! From now on, let's just walk on flowery path. You and me, us, together.

Love, Haru/Levi/Jihu/Juno.

It has been a long ride, casts.

From one to another, season to season, cast to new cast to newer cast, journey to another amazing journey. We have been living this journey for quite long, and we, I, personally couldn't be happier to know each one of you. Each one of amazing you.

You might see me as one stiff serious guy, but that's just how we divided our roles. And I mostly done the editing (thank God we now have Nari to help me) so, I'm more of a backstage guy. But, truthfully, I couldn't be happier to have you guys in my life. Thank you, for making our dreams comes true. It was a long ride, a long 6 seasons ride captured in a year of fun.

I remember during May 2020, discussing about making an agency with one of my friend. And we comes up with New Journey to the West theme, the game show that's more alike home. My friend then bring Haru to the team, he introduce me to Haru and I know back then, I'm going to have a pretty darn great team. Also with Gumi and Hazel. Sadly, my friend withdrawn from the team, and there we were, 4 individuals who's trying to debut as a caretakers. It was a fun, exciting, yet scary experiences.

And I couldn't imagine to last this long with you guys.

Thank you, for making this happened. Thank you for making Bowies happened.

I remember my very first game was Guess the Famous, just like NJTTW. It was CHAOTIC, a fun chaos I must say, and it was quite challenging to do. We went through so much stuffs from the very first game until our very last (for now). Tell us, which game do you like the best? hahaha.

As for my fellows caretakers, PDs, Writers, you guys are amazing. I couldn't be wishing for a better team. You guys are the best, the very best, the greatest that I'd ever wish for. I love you guys so much, thank you for being with me and putting up to me for a long damn time. We got this, fellas. I love you.

Happiest Birthday Book of West, Bowies, my family, may the force be with you.

Love,
Jang Dime/ Song Baram / Lee Skylar / Hwang Inho,
still your best journey companion.

Dear BOWIES,

Happiest birthday! Time goes so fast and without me realizing, one year has passed since we decided to start. I have to say that I didn't hop in since the beginning, but I am grateful that I have the chance to join the ride while it lasts.

For me, BOWIES has been a home, a family that I can always come back to in time of needs. And I have to show my gratitude towards the other admins for always being there for me, both in BOWIES matter or not. Thank you for welcoming me with open arms and make me feel comfortable in no time.

Not to forget, we wouldn't be able to reach this point if it is not because of the never-ending support we've been receiving from our precious casts. You all have been a great part of the journey, for that, I sincerely thank you for your love, warmth, enthusiasm, and participation throughout our seasons.

Congratulations for reaching one year of establishment, BOWIES. Wishing all of us; the admins and the casts; a flowery path ahead. Stay happy and healthy, everyone!

Yours truly,
Aeri/Ashley/Bowies TV/Chu, writer of BookOfWest

How have you been? I hope everything is going well for everyone, no matter what you do or where you are. In celebration of BookofWest’s first anniversary, I would like to thank all of you for making it possible for us to still push through for each and every season. You’re one of main reasons why, us as admins, try to serve something better and some new ideas every season. I have to say, I am thrilled and obviously honored to be a part of Bowie’s big family, although I do regret that I wasn’t there since the beginning, but I want all of you to know that all of the memories that we have made together stays with me and gives me one out of many reasons to push through when I’m facing a setback or a brick wall. And although you might be thinking, oh, I am not one of them anymore.. I want to assure you that it’s not true, once you’re part of Bowies then you’ll always and forever will be. Feel free to hit me up anytime to talk on my CT’s account (even if I reply a little later..), and I wish you a good luck with your journey ahead. I hope you, too, always remember that Bowie will always be apart of you, even only a small bit of it.

Yours truly,
Choi Blaise / Choi Jesse / Choi Killian / Choi PD.

Hello, all of BookOfWest's cast from every season! Time flies so fast until I even didn't realize that BookOfWest is already one year old. I'm so happy to meet all of you, although I'm just a few months ago being one of BookOfWest's writer.

Actually, I'm bad at words. But, I want to send my deepest gratitude to all of you. Thank you for giving much love for us, Book of West. Thank you for staying with us.

In the future, I hope we can meet again. Although I'm barely showing up, but I'm always watching you from afar. Uh... But why it sounds creepy x____x please don't mind me!

Okay, last but not least, happy anniversary for us! I love all of you, BookOfWest's cast. Until we meet again ❤️

Hello, beloved casts (and interns!). We finally reached the first anniversary of BOWIES and though I wasn’t present from the very beginning, I still want to thank you, everyone, for all the enthusiasm and dedication you gave throughout the stay (or when we were about to open the registration!). Not only I am grateful for being part of the family, I am also grateful that BOWIES could go this far.  For all the good things this past one year, we, the PDs and writers are very thankful for your presence. Much love, precious ones. 🤍

— With love, Min Nari.

Hi old friends! Been a year since Bowie started the journey. I still remember all the chaotic but endless fun I had with all the members and also my beloved PD-nims and writer-nims. I'm so proud watching Bowie grow up and a lot of people really appreciate Bowie, waiting for Bowie, and yeah....very cool!

Even though I'm no longer in RP world, I'm still thankful I can be a part of this awesome agency. All of you are precious and hold a special place inside my heart. Thank you, for being a part of me!

Warmest regards,
Cha Gumi/Writer Cha.
