YG: I love him dearly ever since we were trainees.

[5and3nevermind]

They were so busy, yet…

they talked on the phone (1, 2)

and went out for dinner (1, 2, 3)

and went out for drinks (1, 2)

and showed up to support each other (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6)

and did schedules together

and celebrated birthdays together (1)

and had long conversations

and worked out together

and went live together

Isn’t that wonderful?!

[5and3nevermind]

So this is love 💫

I haven't heard of any new yoonmin dates, and i'm not interested on the specifics, but could you tell me , if It has been said, have those new dates been after military enlistment? I would like to think Yoongi had some support (which I'm sure he had, not only from Jimin) after the thing with the scooter, but i'd like to think he would be reasured in some way after a date (or just a dinner, only they know) with Jimin, as they are close

As always thank you so much

Hi anon! It sounds like neither date is recent. Date #1 seems to have happened prior to Jimin’s enlistment, but it’s hard to know if that was op’s speculation or if they were told that by the restaurant owner. News of date #2 just hit yoonmin land today, but the post about it is from February 2024. (!!!) So…it’s hard to know how long they waited before posting about it. These are both different from the sushi date that the chef posted about in September 2023.

As for Yoongi: I know what you mean. I hope he’s had a lot of support during this time. While it would be great to have news of a yoonmin date in mid to late 2024, I have no doubt that Jimin and all of the members have done everything they can to make sure Yoongi knows he has their support.

Anyway, I’m so thrilled to get this new information. It further confirms what we already knew…that yoonmin spend a lot of time together. 💛

Edited to add: I actually love that we don’t hear about these things until much later because it means the guys have some degree of privacy, and it also means there’s probably even more that we don’t know about (yet…or ever).

[5and3nevermind]

ANOTHER, another yoonmin date? This one posted by the restaurant? We’ve got autographs? And definitely different than the one I posted about above?! Ok…

Oh, I am vibrating with excitement. Another ym date?

[5and3nevermind]

Do you remember the 2016 party on the radio show where the boys tried to answer the other members' question and each member chose who would answer and Jimin chose Yoongi and they had to say the percentage of closeness they thought they had, I don't remember the exact percentage but the one Jimin gave to Yoongi was pretty high. I remember it was one of the first pieces of content I saw and I was surprised by Namjoon's reaction, I can't tell if he said "oh Jimin likes Yoongi" to tease Jimin or as a realization he had right then (and I confess it was a shocking realization for me because of their dynamic it was a shock to learn that the Yoonmin were so close).

I thought I'd drop by and get your opinion.

Anon!!! Thank you for bringing up Festa 2016. There were so many yoonmin moments! 🫂

First of all, the “closeness rating” you mentioned…Jimin said he was 90% close to Yoongi. (You can see a translation of the full profile here.)

Then there was Yoongi going on and on about how his friend thinks Jimin is an amazing performer:

I even cropped part of that conversation out to save space!

Yoongi reaching across to grab Jimin. I mean, calm down please 😉:

Yoongi talking about Dead Leaves/Autumn Leaves and Jimin calling Yoongi a “genius producer.” And this is not the first time he’s referred to him this way!

Yoongi thinks he would have gotten all of the questions about Jimin correct (it was Joon who got to answer the Jimin questions):

Ok, Joon. Way to expose your friend:

I didn’t get the feeling that Joon was teasing Jimin; it felt more like a “stating the obvious” moment to me, like “yeah of course he’d pick Yoongi.” But who knows!

I’m not even sure what to say about all of this. There’s no analysis required, right? They’re just…very close and very fond of each other. It’s so great. 🥰

Yoongi’s verse in Blueberry Eyes with Max…. Fully putting my 🤡 makeup on but! He said max sent him a bunch of songs from his album to see if he wanted to feature and Y picked this one and wrote his verse:

“A ray of light cutting through my shadow

You flipped my life that had been dark (Yeah, yeah)

Maybe I'm nothing

Before I met you, I was nobody (Yeah, yeah)

Ayy, I used to mean so little, mm, my life before you were

Only hurrying through the day, yeah

Our days, our nights, okay, our lives

U-A-R-E-M-Y light, friends who support each other, each other’s anchor”

…it’s a really sweet and romantic song and am I wrong but hasn’t Y had several verses with a similar “you’re my light breaking through the darkness” over the years, and it sounds like he’s addressing someone who he spends A Lot of time with and has since before they made it big? Friends who support and anchor each other 🥺 I’m not saying Jimin except I am hahaha. Because I may really be wrong about this one but doesn’t that one song they performed a few times a few years ago have a similar line and J kept looking at him and smiling/getting flustered during his part? I swear I saw that on Twitter but it might have been his “between u and me nothings changed” part. Either way they make it so easy to be a bit delusional and whether or not we ever know more, there’s so much love between them it’s heartwarming.

Aaand I know artists can take creative license with lyrics and it’s not all autobiographical but 🥺 if this really are his feelings for <someone> that’s very sweet. Ok I’m done for now I hope this is comprehensible lol 🥰

Hi anon!

At the risk of sounding a little goofy, there are three verses that Yoongi has written that really remind me of Jimin. (And before anyone yells at me and reminds me that it isn’t all about yoonmin and that Yoongi and Jimin are both individuals and can write about subjects other than each other, YES I know that. Note the way I phrased my sentence: these lyrics by Yoongi “remind me of Jimin,” and therefore could maybe be about Jimin. It’s just speculation. Anyway…)

The three verses are:

1. his verse in Blueberry Eyes. I agree that the way in which Yoongi chose that particular song when he easily could have chosen something less romantic is really interesting. I have seen people try to suggest that the verse is about “us” (Army), and that could be true, but there’s also an element of intimacy and familiarity here that makes me think this verse could be about a special someone.

2. his verse in Good Day, which I have talked about before here. The way Yoongi describes his relationship with this person—who is male, according to the lyrics—reminds me so much of the comfortable, supportive dynamic that he has with Jimin.

3. not one verse, but several: You, which Yoongi wrote and produced for ØMI.

For instance:

You always embrace me, with your hands / Regrets and mistakes / Turn into irreplaceable color, and I can move forward / Oh, oh, even on a frozen day / Oh, oh, even on broken days, ayy / Oh, oh, anytime / You are always by my side

…and…

It's comfortable / That we can talk about anything each other / We have a good relationship / I want to give out a lot of love to you / Let's make flowers bloom again / We named the anxious night "forever" and shared a laugh with each other / You, you, you, you gave me the key / You, you, you, you, door to tomorrow

In all three of these examples, we have the common element of a relationship based on kindness and comfort. This person is steadfast and loyal; they are a source of reassurance and happiness, not angst or drama. And for me, that’s what I see when I look at yoonmin. Are there occasional struggles or challenges? Of course. But overall, this is a very balanced relationship, and they both benefit emotionally from their bond.

In terms of the light theme that you mentioned, I think the moment you’re thinking of is Yoongi’s verse in For Youth:

It was dark everywhere (It was dark) / In the meantime, a ray of light (A ray of light) / I'm really glad it's you / We shine because we are together

Jimin seemed really endeared by Yoongi’s verse in this song.

And since we’re talking about Jimin and the theme of light, we can’t forget his verse in Promise:

I want you to be your light, baby / You should be your light / So that you won't be in pain / So you can smile / I want you to be your night, baby / You could be your night / I'll be honest with you tonight

So…I’m not sure that we can conclude anything definitive from this. But we do see a pattern in terms of certain themes. Of course we also have the “you know, I know” theme which we see in various forms in Serendipity, Like Crazy, People pt 2, and Shadow. That’s a lot of coincidences!

Thanks anon! 💛 I love this topic.

Hellooo sending you a yoonmin crumb!

https://www.instagram.com/p/DEQJAGCtlLH/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link (5th video)

Absolutely no pressure to reply! I just had never seen this video before and I don’t recall you talking about it either so I wanted to share! It’s the tiniest ym crumb but still I love how Jimin zeroed in on Yoongi as soon as he (Jimin) arrived. Would love to hear your thoughts but again no pressure!!

~🤍

Hi anon! I love yoonmin crumbs. 💛

It’s funny because at first I was thinking fifth slide, not fifth video, and I saw the cute PTD moment. Then I realized my mistake and focused on the moment from the run ep. So, you sent me two yoonmin crumbs! The more, the better!

I want to watch this episode again…I think I only watched it once when it was first released, and it’s been awhile. I totally see what you mean about Jimin’s focus going to Yoongi.

Likewise, I think Yoongi’s attention went to Jimin as soon as he arrived.

Sometimes I struggle with these little moments, the crumbs. Do they really mean something, or are we just giving them meaning because of our preconceived notions about yoonmin?

When it comes to these subtle moments, I think they’re hard to explain. You either see it or you don’t. It’s instinct. Body language, the smallest change in facial expression or tone of voice…we sometimes act like these observations aren’t real, like they’re just in our own minds. But really, our brains are designed to notice these small things. Maybe we should give ourselves more credit and trust ourselves enough to see these moments as more than crumbs.

Jimin and Yoongi often seem focused on each other, even in the midst of the chaos that happens during run episodes and other content. It’s really sweet!

Thanks for sending some yoonmin crumbs, anon!

Yoonmin during Ch. 2:

So…I love lists. I can’t explain why, I just do. Maybe it’s because they help put things into perspective? Look at this for instance. As much as we got to see Yoongi and Jimin together in content during Ch. 2, what’s really crazy is how often they hung out in their free time. Seeing it written out and broken into categories drives home (to me) how much time they spend together.

Working together:

💛 Tourism ads

💛 Art for Indigo with Joon

💛 Ddeun Ddeun

💛 Like Crazy and Haegeum dance challenges

💛 Two episodes of Suchwita

💛 Suga | Agust D "road to army" video

💛 Tony Montana

💛 Jimin makes a brief appearance in D-Day Good Day

In their free time:

💙 Sushi dinner (according to the chef)

💙 Korean BBQ dinner (according to restaurant owner)

💙 Working out together

💙 Discussing Face Off and human relationships

💙 Getting a meal together after Ddeun Ddeun

💙 Jimin attending two D-Day concerts other than the one where he performed TM and LC

💙 Drinks the day after the second Seoul concert

💙 Drinks prior to Yoongi's enlistment

💙 Celebrating Jimin's birthday

💙 Jimin watching Yoongi's birthday live from home, taking a video of himself watching, and posting it on Weverse

💙 Yoongi attending Jimin's music show recording

💙 Yoongi peeking in on Jimin's dance practices for Vibe

💙 Jimin telling Jimmy Fallon the two members he sees most often are Hobi and Yoongi

💙 Yoongi saying during a d-day event that the member he spoke to most recently was Jimin

💙 Yoongi saying in a live that the member he’d seen that day was Jimin

💙 Jimin appearing in the doorway of Yoongi’s live and then posting on Weverse that he’d chosen his live title for him

💙 Yoongi using two vacation days to attend the enlistment ceremonies for the members.

l'll also add a third category, which seems to be a mixture of work and free-time:

💚 Jimin and Yoongi's live in Newark

💚 Yoongi joining Jimin's video call

💚 Jimin calling in for the 230407 Honey FM
