7 Nation Army - Part 3: And the Oscar goes to …

Listening to album FACE - by Jimin  ON REPEAT

[Music is a very big part of my life and I’m MOSTLY INCAPABLE of writing without music, so I just thought I'd share what I am listening to while writing this]

–🐺–🐺–🐺–

FACE by Jimin is a movie.

Before the pre-release of Set Me Free pt. 2, when I tried to guess what the theme of the album could have been from the information that we had, I perceived this alluring masterpiece as an opera, but, my dear ladies, gentlemen and enbies; I was wrong. This album is a movie and my filmmaker heart is all over the place in excitement to this realisation. As always, anything I write is my opinion, that being said, please allow me to introduce and dissect this elegant Psychological-Thriller named FACE.

Director: JIMIN

Writer: JIMIN

Starring: JIMIN

Taglines: Amazing Face, how sweet the pouring sound.

Genre: Psychological Thriller

Certificate: 16 - Profanity, Alcohol

The typical structure of a Psychological-Thriller usually has the movie/series start at some point which is a tiny bit earlier/forward than the current timeline so as to give you a imagery that will be very contrasting with the flashback/flashforward which will immediately follow, which will properly set the tone for the actual main part movie, which provides with all the issues and challenges of the main character. Towards the end we finally reach the actual current timeline, which in thrillers tends to be a situation worse than the beginning of the story. From here we would go to the conclusion where one of two things can happen; either it ends in tragedy or the character is able to find victory. Every once in a while depending on the story there might be a hopeful filler, and depending on where it is placed in the storyline, it affect the plot differently.

A bit before/after current timeline: Face-off

The circus-like music starts, giving us immediate context. When used as a metaphor the circus, or any circus-like imagery, almost always is indicative of the opposite of anything that is genuine. All the makeup, the constantly smiling, happy and funny entertainer, basically; we are in a farce. From here on the beat becomes a distorted and distant reproduction of the farce. A distant sound represents disassociation within the context. So for a moment, the protagonist is separating from their reality for a particular reason. 

In this case, Jimin has had it and is finally confronting/facing someone or something that has hurt him deeply. Following the lyrics, at this point, we’ve just started the movie, so we have no clue what is going on. However, we do understand that there is indeed an antagonist. Nothing we can do for now, all we have to do is to proceed within the plot:

🎵It's a beautiful night (Beautiful night)

I think you found me

Tonight, I don't wanna be sober (Sober)

Pour it up, it's all fucking over🎶

So what exactly has happened between our protagonist and this mystery antagonist?

Flashback/Flashforward: Interlude : Dive

The beginning of this track sounds like the typical time-wrap as you either fast forward or rewind. Usually, psychological thrillers go backwards, so rewinding we go, all the way to October 15, 2022 at the Yet to Come concert in Busan:

"Wow, everyone, I really missed you a lot.

We get to meet like this.

Everyone, this is Jimin."

The absence of vocals shows how this track isn’t an interpretation of any sort of feelings or thought,  but simply a display of truths of the time; there is NO farce here, only facts. This is 2022 and the pandemic has been over. Jimin should finally be able to meet with ARMY freely and life is seemingly going back to normal. Yet, at the very end we hear the sound of something pouring. Thanks to Face-off, we can deduce that it is some kind of liquor.

Hence, even though everything is supposed to be “back to normal”, something seems to have stuck with him, Jimin seems to be carrying some baggage he acquired during lockdown, something amongst perhaps many things he quite can’t seem to get rid of / set free from. This is the life he has now been used to; this is his Jimin’s new reality.

What does Jimin's new reality look like?

Main part/plot: Like Crazy

It’s a blur but it feels amazing, and it beats having to feel everything that he has been feeling thus far. Even though it is not eternal, because it will come to an end, he knows very well, but he doesn’t care, he needs “that fix”, so if it is just for a night, then the night will have to do:

🎵Baby don’t think about it

There’s not a bad thing here tonight

Baby, it’s okay to leave

Just stay for today🎶

When your poison of choice is alcohol, you are not going to have a trip or experience sensations you never had; alcohol is not that sophisticated. What it does though, very quickly and quite efficiently, is blocking inhibitions. When you are relaxed, and in a friendly environment, the body follows actions, like in a chain reaction and starts thinking happy thoughts, relieving joyful memories and just having a jolly good time really. 

For the sake and sole purpose of the plot of this movie, we are not going to mention how, at the same time, while drunk, functioning as a regular human being, is out of the question, as self-consciousness isn’t the only thing that is gone, any sort of control, sane judgement and more are also out the window 😬😬😬 …

Through the voices at the beginning of the song and the actual MV, this track adds more clues as to who the soon to become antagonist might be. There is a male voice and a female voice in the song. There is Jimin and a young woman mirroring Jimin’s movements in the MV. Jimin knows her; she is him. He always has a great time with her, she knows him very well, afterall she is him. So while he is spending this night incapacitated, he is just going to follow her lead and live on happily, while stopping time temporarily as long as they can.  

🎵My reflection in the mirror

I’m going crazy endlessly

I’m feeling so alive, wasting time🎶

But what happens the following morning? What happens that one morning  when you realise that “that fix” isn’t worth anything anymore.

Actual current timeline: Alone

The track begins with the sound of an alarm, which isn’t simply indicating morning, but also setting the story back to  the present time. Jimin’s actual reality. He has now woken up into that one morning where he is more sober than sober. That one morning when the hangover isn’t as uncomfortable as his realisations. That one morning where the risk of a failing liver isn’t as scary as the reality he is having to face. 

So there he is, face to face with the mess he willingly created amidst the inevitably bad situation he was shoved into. Him like everyone else. Yet, unlike most of everyone else, he fell badly. Finally, he has come to terms with the fact that he’s mentally hit rock-bottom mentally. And because misery loves company, any other bad/uncomfortable feeling/situation he had been successfully avoiding joined, merrily (perhaps all his identities, his sense of worth, his sense of loneliness, etc).

This is the heaviest part of the movie. The part where the protagonist is weak and where everything seems, and at times truly is against them. This is the part where the protagonist is at their most vulnerable. This is the point of the plot where, we would all be ending up at, no matter how anyone has interpreted the whole storyline (some may have associated it FACE with other issues, such as lovers, friendships, family, substance abuse, etc …). 

In my opinion, this track, on the timeline, is right before Face-off. In an actually movie, we’d have a collage which would mix Face-off with everything that has happened thus far:

[Face-off lyrics connected with other tracks]

🎵All right

I guess the blame is on me

Look at how I look right now 🎶 - Interlude :  Dive

🎵Break it down

Break it down

This is the story of ordinary me

Get it out

Get it out

Everyone shout like crazy yeah yeah🎶 - Like Crazy

🎵Gave you all the money

Gave you all my heart

Your Masquerade party

 I was fucking drunk

The damned days of the past

Are now over too🎶 - Alone

So … will our protagonist win his battle against all their antagonists?

Conclusion: Set Me Free Pt.2

The ominous sound of a choir, followed by glorious trumpets; Jimin is ready for his final battle and he is sounding, and looking, hella victorious. He hasn’t forgotten all his struggles. He acknowledges the battles he’s won, and the ones he's lost, which allowed him to get to where he is firmly standing right now. He hears the haters, sees the obstacles and acknowledges his shortcomings. At the same time he’s found a new resolution, developed a tougher skin and embraced all his faces. But above all, he’s realised that if he wasn’t gonna set himself free, who the hell was gonna do that for him? And so he did. 

🎵Look at me now

You can mock me but I won’t stop

Going crazy so I don’t go crazy

Put your hands up for the past me

Now set me free,

Set me free x 12🎶

Park Jimin, all his selves, is finally free. Free.

Roll the credit.

Hopeful Filler: Letter

At the end of the credits of any good movie MUST have an after credit scene, which usually serves to introduce a possible sequel or to add something to the way the actual movie ended. HOWEVER, as I do want to have a post just for this track, I shall end this here. 

… And now, it is with great honour and palpitation that I stand here, amongst a jury of my peers, in order to present the award for best, exquisitely unexpected, but rather awaited masterpiece, of the year.

And the nominees are:

… AND THE WINNER IS: Park Jimin in FACE.

And that's all from me, now I'll go and keep relaxing some. Also, can't wait to hear from Jimin during his live on the 29th!

As always, very respectfully yours,

Marengo.

# 64 Artemini

The Sodium Pokemon

Type: Water/ Psychic

Ability: Immunity/ (HA) Magic Bounce

This Pokemon’s body is nearly 30% salt.  Its brain sends signals through salt molecules to control its only other organ, which manages its empathic powers.  Due to its odd composition, Artemini are immune to most poisons and diseases and can live in any sufficiently salty condition.  They are an ideal first Pokemon for very young trainers, as they are simple to care for, and are always in tune with the emotions of the people and pokemon around them.

THE ONE AND ONLY ANTHEM

He said what he said.

Jimin's verse in this song is something else. It's too early for me to get into a deep analyses but one thing I'll say is that:

Any gurl, boy, enby will be able to sing his verse to whomever they want because it was made very non-gender specific.

Since he has wirting credits, I'm assuming could be wrong that he wrote his verse.

Okay let me go keep streaming, for now I will leave you with this colourful set of Vibing Jimin made by Yours-Truly-Me 😘

Always respectfully yours,

Marengo.

Glorious Freedom

Desire In Silence - by Hong Eun Ji  [The Glory, Pt.2 (Original Soundtrack from the Netflix Series)]

[Music is a very big part of my life and I’m MOSTLY INCAPABLE of writing without music, so I just thought I'd share what I am listening to while writing this]

–🐺–🐺–🐺–

Okay, let’s get the shitty stuff out of the way real quick. I’m still not well, turns out that what I thought was something which would pass with some rest, wasn’t that at all. Hence, the time has come to let the heavy-duty doctors do some heavy-duty doctoring. Luckily enough, I was able to get an appointment for next week because I am going private, had it been public it was a 3 months wait and, yeah; no. So let’s wait and see.

NOW, while I’m not in pain, and my mind is somewhat clear, please allow me to quickly wax poetic over the combined total of 36 seconds which we were bestowed, between the Teaser 1 and Teaser 2, of Set Me Free Pt. 2. I haven’t been able to stop thinking about them and for some reason, every time I see Park Jimin staring at us in that way, I can’t help but think of Moon Dong-eun; the main character from The Glory.

In fact the whole of Teaser 1, in particular the choir CHILLS, all make me evoke the theme upon which the Glory stands. If you haven’t watched it yet, I highly advise it, so while not spoiling it let me explain how Moon Dong Eun is a woman who is out for the blood of those who hurt her, she is trying to find away to hopefully be happy but above all she seeking Glory for herself and for those who also were hurt but couldn’t attain happiness. Moon Dong-Eun is on a mission and life has been heavy, but one thing she learned how to understand and use is Time.

As we all know Park Jimin has had, and probably still has, his fair share of suffering, be it physical or/and mental. He’s also battled with external and internal forces, this also being physical or/and mental. That we are knowledgeable of, he’s had at least 10 good years of it and in a way, even though he may not be looking for "blood", he’s also learned to understand and use Time. Differently from the other members thus far, each of his promotional material, such as the FACE release schedule itself, has been very carefully calculated.

Park Jimin has chosen this particular time in his life to talk to us. He is not going to force people to listen to him, and he doesn’t particularly strike me as someone who likes to repeat himself twice. The presence of contemporary dancers (emotional expression), the choir (external forces), the circular/semi circular “stage” (mental environment), all make me think of a theatrical performance. This  is an opera, JImin’s Opera, and we are all invited to witness this tale that he has meticulously woven for us. 

Remember how upon seeing the tracklist I thought that Set Me Free pt.2 felt like a continuation of Lie?

Caught in s lie

Find the me that was pure

I can’t be free from this lie

Give me back my smile

Caught in a lie

Pull me from this hell

I can’t be free from this pain

Save me, I am being punished

If so why not call it Lie pt. 2 instead? Though he does talk about not being free, the lyrics are very much focused on the feeling of pain. GRANTED we yet do not know what Set Me Free pt.2 talks about, AND AS ALWAYS THIS ALL JUST ME RAMBLING WHAT'S IN MY HEAD, it feels to me like he is now over the pain, and not because it doesn’t hurt anymore, but because he is just numb to the feeling, numb to all that are irrelevant noises, be them external or/and internal “noises”.

So will he find freedom at the end of this masterpiece?  What is the main genre within Jimin’s Opera? Will WE survive it all? Only Time will tell …

So nervously yours,

Marengo.

7 Nation Army - Part 2: Time to FACE the Music.

Serendipity - by BTS  [Love Yourself 結 ‘Answer’]

[Music is a very big part of my life and I’m MOSTLY INCAPABLE of writing without music, so I just thought I'd share what I am listening to while writing this]

–🐺–🐺–🐺–

… *TAKES A VERY BIG BREATHE AND WILL KEEP CALM; FOR NOW*

Without understanding the implications to the following statement, we all were VERY excited at the mere idea of getting even just a single song from Park Jimin. Like 1 song was really just enough. 

Eventually, towards the end of this particular BTS FESTA dinner (2022) we realised that we were actually gonna get a full album. LIKE A WHOLE JIMIN ALBUM. It wasn’t certain, they didn't say it out loud, but the feeling was there. WE ALL FELT FELT LIKE PJM1 WAS FINALLY COMING. 

So then, let’s see a little picture-summary of ALL that our boy has been up to in order to bring him all the way to today excluding any whole-BTS, or Jikook, related content, such as the Busan concert, FACT Awards, etc…:

Among some of the previous pictures that happened today, we’ve also been blessed enough with receiving a BEHIND THE SCENES OF FACE:

The above collection of pictures started August 2022, but we all know he must have started way before May, from his conversation in BTS FESTA 2022, meaning that this young man has been grinding NON STOP for so long. Those of us who seem to have understood his character, had no doubt we would, thus well in advance, I’d just like to thank you, Park Jimin for:

ALL your hard work

WANTING to share something that feels very personal with us

FOR YOUR EXISTENCE REALLY

I was actually telling @ejassy how excited, but at the same time scared, I am for this album. It feels so deep, so heavy and though I am so grateful he feels he can trust us with his emotions, I am trying to brace myself. In all honesty, I am still trying to process it all and I wish March 24, 2023 were tomorrow. YET, Regardless of me wanting this album to come soon, once again:

I AM NOT READY.

Very Anxiously yours, 

Marengo.

[marengogo]

WELL DAMN ...

If any of you thinks they are ready for this album, then I'm afraid to break it down to you but:

YOU LYING FAM, STRAIGHT UP.

Nervous Scared Excitedly yours,

Marengo.

[marengogo]

I'm currently writing something about RM's Chapter 2 and I just realised that I'm lowkey HIGHKEY scared of PJM1 as it feels like it will be deeper than Indigo and Indigo is hella deep. So, I'm not sure if I am emotionally ready for it yet, but it is what it is I guess ...

[marengogo]

Ladies, Gentlemen & Kind People I give you; ArteMini:

Mini, obviously from Jimin, and Arte from Artemis (in roman Diana), the greek goddess of hunt, nature and wilderness, whose usually depicted with a bow, arrow and a deer:

And you know what other symbol is associated with Artemis? The crescent moon.

Now obviously, only Jimin knows what he took as inspiration from this concept, but please allow me to ravel in my slight obsession for Roman/Greek mythology as I feel that this concept would really suit him.

I can see JM being a hunter. What is he hunting? Global domination? ARMY’s hearts? Just a rabbit? ... who knows, right?.

Also let’s not forget the other concept: CHAOS. Not sure how this would tie in with the mythology concept, it probably doesn’t at all. In fact, if we just consider it as a concept of its own, if you think about the word chaos, usually it is messy right? disorderly, kinda all over the place. Whereas, a tailor brings things together in a very neat fashion, right? It’s almost as if he’s saying that his giving a sense to a madness; The Tailor of Chaos.

Gotta love this man 💜.

Impatiently waiting, 

Marengo

[marengogo]

And finally it is here: Me, Myself & Jimin ‘ID : Chaos’

Park Jimin is so fascinating. His thought process, his ideas and the feelings associated with it. The Black & White associated with it. As a person that gives "Gray" so much important, it is fascinating to see someone else who handle colours in their own personal way.

I wonder if he is actually going to associate the different outfits with the different colours, or whether he was just talking about the whole concept in general?

White: The Raw self 🤍 ? ...

Black: The Original self 🖤 ? ...

And what about the Mannequin? I wonder what part of JM is supposed to represent.

So many questions uh ...

One thing is for certain tho, JM's profile game is superior.

Waiting in deep fascination for the Tailor of Chaos to give us more,

Marengo.

7 Nation Army - Part 1(JM): Welcome On Board of The ArteMini, I’m Your Captain; Park Jimin

SEXY NUKIM (feat. RM of BTS) - by Balming Tiger  [no album]

[Music is a very big part of my life and I’m MOSTLY INCAPABLE of writing without music, so I just thought I'd share what I am listening to while writing this]

–🐺–🐺–🐺–

So, though we still really don’t know much about Captain Park’s voyage, I thought it might be a good idea to quickly take a look, step by step, at all that we know thus far of his preparation for the highly anticipated PJM, which JM has been working real hard on. 

If I’m not mistaken, it all officially started during BTS’ Festa 2022, which aired 13 June 2022 KST.

Not sure if this was the same for everybody, but this didn’t even register properly at first, as the dinner brought forth a lot of emotions as you may or may not know/remember … Anyways.

Right before JM went to Chicago first to support Hobi during Lollapalooza (31 August 2022) and then LA for his own schedule (which we will also look at in a sec), we had members also mentioning the fact that JM has indeed been working hard on PJM1, such as RM during the WLIVE (weverse LIVE) on the 21 July 2022.

Cool, next. 

JM spent a good 2 weeks abroad, he left for the US on 30 July 2022 and returned 14 August 2022. As we all know JM went to support Hobi, being the exquisite person that he is, and then also joined Benny Blanco in promoting Bad Decisions which came out 5 August 2022.

But then we all got hella excited when we so the following picture posted on Tommy Borwn’s IG, 10 August 2022. Here is a link to his —>  Producing & SongWriting work:

If it hadn’t been clear at this point that JM was working hard on PJM1: It most definitely was right about then. 

And JM kept working (30 August 2022)

And working (1 September 2022)

And working (12 September 2022)

HELLA HARD.

Aaaand here are the latest updated from yesterday (17 September 2022), brought to us by singer and songwriter Gabriel Brandes and writer and producer Alex Karlsson. Here is a link to his —> Work Thus Far.

So, moral of the story is that so far: Park 👏🏾 Jimin 👏🏾 is 👏🏾 Working 👏🏾 Hard 👏🏾.

FOR REAL.

Yours, with excitement level 9000,

Marengo.
