About Taennie

I am bothered and nobody should care because it is not my business.

Writing all this here because, somehow, I can't wrap my head around the relationship between V and Miss Jennie. It bothers me and i do not know why.

Is V my bias? Absolutely not. I like to think I am ot7 but, i can't deny it, my eyes will always look for Jimin and the content I always click first on is Yoongi.

Am I a shipper and this broke my delulu bubble? Nope. Well, I am a Jikooker but I never shipped Tae with anyone before. So, that's not it either.

Did I honestly think that I had a chance with V? No, not for a moment have I fantasized myself with any BTS member other than meeting them after a concert and having some seju with them. Besides, I wouldn't trade my husband for any other man. Yup, not even for Yoongi.

Is it because it's the first Bangtan relationship that went public? Well, that is a bit of a shock, I admit, but listen, Army knows that these men aren't virgins. Imagine, just imagine, being a super hot (referring to all of 7 here), super popular, super rich, super talented young man in your twenties. I am mean, yeah. I would pretty much never sleep alone. They never admitted it but of course they aren't virgins.

So, let's see. I am not delusional and i know these men have healthy romantic relationships.

SO WHAT IS IT THAT BOTHERS ME?!

It has to be this specific relationship, right? Let's see. It's not about it being V i have established.

So it is Jennie? Well... I don't know her. Sure I have listened to a few songs of BP, not my vibe. I have seen a few interviews too and i will admit this kind of " I am super shy and a sweet little girl next door" attitude of hers is quite off-putting but A LOT of korean female idols are like this because of the aegyo culture. And don't tell me it's her character, because if it is that's even worse. She is a 27 year old global superstar. She should be breaking boundaries out there instead of giggling when getting a compliment. Remember Rihanna when she was 27? A fucking hurricane and that was a decade ago. I can name many more. Other than that I just don't know her. Maybe she is breaking boundaries and I am talking non sense right now, in which case apologies. She is absolutely gorgeous of course but nothing I have seen so far of hers and of her groups has made me come back for me.

So, it's not Jennie either. Well that leaves me with one alternative, the one i was dreading.

It's my curse in life. I expect a lot out of people and that's because I give a lot myself. Somehow, I expected more from V that going for the princess, the one that's pretty and cute and the photos over the fireplace that look gorgeous and the fairy tale that will never end. It's the cliché of it all. The pretty boy gets the pretty girl, they have pretty babies in a pretty house and they live prettily every after.

I wanted Tae to go for the yoga teacher that struggles to make ends meet. The cab driver girl in Seoul that is breaking gender stereotypes every type she puts her shoes on. The nurse who gets home with bleeding feet, the dancer that needs to get a second job because dancing doesn't pay the bills. The art student, the make up artist, the flight attendant. The phD candidate that tries to cure cancer.

It's not about the money, about Jennie being born filthy rich and through her talent and work getting even richer. It's the cliché. The prince and the princess. I wanted a dragon for Tae. An ugly duckling, the evil witch, the rebellious mermaid, anything other than the shiny princess in the castle.

Because, unlike Jennie, Tae was not born a prince. He had to claw his way to the very top with his hard work, talent and incredible bandmates.

Another thing that bugs me is how the narrative places BP on par with BTS, which is not true. Although undoubtedly the most popular k girl group they are not on the same level as BTS, with that they have accomplished and the obstacles they overcame. Or the art they have produced. Or the work they have put to their art. The whole "the guy from the most famous boy group is in a relationship with the girl from the most famous girl group" is not doing justice neither to Bangtan or V himself.

Tae is distracted but happy. This is all army wants. I wish them all the best and i hope they have a lovely relationship.

My opinion is irrelevant and I hope no one ever reads this. No tags. This was for me.
