Hi storm,

Do you know about the time when Jimin was eating one meal a day for 10 days and how he wouldn’t stop and everyone (the members) were really worried about him so to get him to stop jungkook followed the same diet as him and then jimin became worried about him and ended his diet? I think Jin was the one who mentioned it, I always thought this was what the ‘Manila fight’ was about but I’m not sure. Do you have sources for it please? I’m not sure if it’s even real😭😭 thanks tho

Hi! It's from a Korean Magazine interview from 2014. 141006 Hankyung Interview in full here:

Here is the part of the interview that it gets mentioned. I'm just going to copy/paste the trans here:

Q. By the way, everyone has lost a lot of weight, including Jimin sitting in front.

Jimin: I wanted to show a manly image.

Rap Monster: (Jimin) Self-management is the most thorough.

Jin: (Jiminie) eats one meal a day!

Jimin: I used to be like that, but now I've adjusted it well and I'm doing it a little bit.

Jin: Since Jimin only eats one meal a day, he worries that doing so will damage his body, so he says that he doesn't have to worry about it because he controls himself and eats on his own. After that, Jungkook followed suit and started eating one meal a day. This time, Jiminie told Jungkook that if you go on a diet like that, your body will hurt. haha.

Q. One meal a day!

Jungkook: I'm at lunch.

Jimin: I ate between breakfast and lunch.

Jin: 10 months before debut, I ate only two chicken breasts a day and endured. I'll never starve after doing that. So I tried to stop my younger siblings, but they didn't listen. I guess you have to experience it to know.

V: Before debuting, all the members had a diet. We made tuna into a sandwich after draining all the oil and ate it, (Rap Monster: It really didn't taste good...) Me and Rapmon hyung thought how to get out of here and eat something else.

Rap Monster: How can I go to the convenience store without being caught! ha ha ha. However, Jimin did not cheat. When Jimin was caught on camera, he was more concerned about his appearing chubby than anything else. Doesn't he have different priorities for each person? V and I also adjust, but these friends are so thorough that we're like, 'Ah... I'm still saying let's eat and live, but let's eat some!' It's a bit like this. In fact, even if we just do the choreography, the amount of exercise is no joke, so there are some things that basically don't gain weight even if you eat a little.

Q. Jimin seems to be harsh on himself.

Rap Monster: He is strict with himself.

Jimin: Jungkook rather than me... haha.

Rap Monster: Jungkook is an alien!

Jimin: I adjust to a certain extent, but Jungkook said, 'Ah, should I lose weight today?' If so, you won't eat a single meal.

Rapmonster :Even then, if the other hyungs eat, I'll eat too, and I'll just eat again. Have you tried StarCraft? (Q. No. I only know what races there are.) If you look there, there is something that Marin uses a stimpak, and Jungkook is exactly that. If you use a stimpak, your HP (Hit Point, Stamina) is all reduced, so you die with just one hit, but while using it, you become very strong and fast. When Jungkook uses it, “(as if it explodes) Wow!” Then the next day, “(as if tired) Ah… .” It goes like this. (Jimin: Look at the metaphor. Really funny. Haha.) When Jungkook is wearing a steam pack, no one can touch him. scary.

Hope that helps!! (Also the "Manila fight" theories were from 2016, so a few years later!)
