I'll Sort It out

Word Count: 1323 M.list

Warnings: Getting hate, crying, swear word. (P.S This is a bit of a mess and the ending isn't great!)

You and Jungkook had been together since early 2019 after meeting at the BBMA’s. It was both your first times at an American awards show, so you naturally felt a little out of place. Since you spoke a little Korean (having since improved greatly) you took a chance and introduced yourself to the group.

You and Jungkook stayed in contact after finding you had a natural connection and finally began dating in 2019, after a lot of pushing from each of your friend groups.

Whilst BTS only got bigger as the days went by, your audience mainly stayed the same. Not that you minded. You enjoyed playing smaller and more intimate venues. It allowed you to be closer to the fans and interact with them more easily, plus you could do meet and greats without all the pressure of disappointing people who couldn’t get in.

Jungkook always made it his mission to go to as many of your shows as possible, and cheer you on from the side or somewhere in the back of the crowd.

Ultimately, that’s how the two of you got found out. Him being spotted at one too many of your shows when he had no other reason to be in the city.

Neither of you had wanted to stay secret anymore, so with the go ahead from BigHit, you made the relationship public.

It felt good to be able to make posts with and about your boyfriend on social media after having to hide it for so long, you felt proud and wanted to show him off because you loved him... But then the hate started. On every picture you posted, even ones that had nothing to do with Jungkook, there would be hate. Even on posts promoting your albums, they would be accusing you of using him to stay relevant, since you needed all the help you could get, according to them anyway.

God forbid Jungkook dared to talk about you or your music on one of his live streams... That would only add more fuel to the fire. He would be blissfully unaware of the hate geared towards you, th chat moving too fast for him to notice.

But you knew.

They’d recently gone from just nasty comments on your posts, to messaging you actual death threats.

When that first happened, you stopped posting pictures with Jungkook and made private all the ones already up on your page. Jungkook was confused as to why you suddenly did that but he didn’t bring it up after all, he had stopped using Instagram so maybe you were going to do the same thing?

Recently, Jungkook had been in talks to collaborate with other artists from America in preparation for the release of his first solo album, and when he bought up the idea of the two of you also doing a song together, it caused you to hit your breaking point.

‘What do you mean, no?’ He’d cornered you in his dance studio during a break. All the backing dancers had gone out so it was just the two of you left in the room.

‘It means no, Kook. It’s not a good idea.’ He stared at you like he suddenly couldn’t understand Korean, and he couldn’t stop the hurt flashing across his face. It hurt your heart to turn him down like that, but you had no other choice.

‘You can’t just say no without giving me a reason!’ he started to argue, now getting more angry than upset.

‘We can talk later.’ You mumbled, gathering your things to leave, hoping to escape this conversation until later.

‘No! You can’t just leave like that- hey!’ As soon as he reached out to grab your arm to stop you, you span round and unleashed your emotions onto him for the first time since this all started.

‘You don’t know what it’s like!’ You practically screamed in his face. Your cheeks had become red with rage and fat tears stained your face. Jungkook flinched at your sudden emotional state and went quiet, his anger drifting away into confusion as you continued.

‘-To constantly have people telling me I’m not good enough, and I’m just using you to stay relevant! It’s going to be ten times worse if we do a song together! Don’t you see!?’ You span round and cried into your hands, embarrassed that he was seeing you like this.

‘Baby... I-I had no idea...’ How could he not have known something was wrong. He felt so stupid that he’d apparently been blind to this whole situation. Just then, a thought struck him.

‘Is this why you made all those pictures of us private a while ago?’ You nodded without turning round and sniffled. You heard him curse under his breath and suddenly his arms were round you, cradling you from behind.

‘Why didn’t you say something sooner?’ He spoke against the skin of your neck.

‘I didn’t want to put you in that position.’ You shook your head and tried to calm your sobs.

‘Hey, don’t talk like that.’ He circled round to stand in front of you, gently sliding his hands up your neck to cup your face.

‘You will always be my top priority, ok?’ You nodded sadly and subconsciously reached up to grasp onto his forearms, more to comfort yourself than anything.

‘please don’t cry. I’ll sort it all out.’ He wiped your tears with the pads of his thumbs and pulled you into a hug, flush against his chest.

‘We’re also definitely doing that song together, by the way.’ You pulled back sharply, almost in disbelief.

‘Have you not been listening to anything I said!?’

‘And I told you I’d sort it! Please... Just trust me on this.’ He pleaded, almost begging you to trust him with his eyes. You sighed deeply and rubbed at your sore eyes.

‘Ok... I trust you.’

What Jungkook meant by sort it, was to basically threaten legal action to everyone who sent you death threats or tried to defame you, in the form of a very stern letter released through BigHit.

Hello, this is BigHit.

Please find below a statement directly from Jungkook.

Hello.

First of all I want to say that this letter isn’t targeted towards the fans who have shown nothing but support for me and Y/N. Please know we both appreciate you all and are grateful for everything you do for us.

This letter is in direct response to the people who think it’s appropriate to send Y/N death threats and try to defame her, by claiming she’s using me for fame. Unbeknownst to me, this has been going on for a long time, which has caused Y/N  a great deal of mental stress.

Death threats aren’t something we take lightly.

Np, Y/N isn’t using me for fame.

No, we aren’t breaking up.

Yes we are going to continue making public appearances together, and YES, we will be taking legal action.

We already have a large number of names and accounts which have been handed over to our lawyers. If the threats and accusations don’t stop immediately, then we have no problem taking whatever legal action is necessary.

In future, please understand that we don’t have to share out lives with you. We share what we are comfortable with being public, but when you act like this? It only makes us want to close off completely.

I hope my words have made you realise that actions and words can have consequences.

-JJK.

The statement Jungkook released caused a real storm online. Most real ARMY immediately rallied around you to create a support network and the threats mainly stopped. You guessed that most of them were probably just teenagers, scared of being caught out.

The song you and Jungkook released together was a massive hit too. It was basically a big fuck you to all the haters and you couldn’t wait to perform it live.

Episode 3: Pursuit of Happiness 

Beyond the Star, produced by HYBE Media Studio

Yoongi says people who knew him told him he'd changed a lot since they debuted. Between 2018-2019, he said he finally came to understand what position they were in (status of stardom) . He had a chance to look back and see where he could enjoy the process more and then he started making music again.

They were on somewhat of a break at the beginning of 2018 as Bang PD had suggested they take.

They had a chance to pause long enough and spend time with each other as friends and laugh a lot. Though they’d worked themselves to the brink, they were still committed to their bond with each other.

Hobi says it allowed their bond to become stronger, their mental capacity to increase, it was one of the most important moments that allowed the team to grow.

Here is where Tae says “regardless of the relationship with the agency, I signed my contract to see them smile.”

Personally, from what I’ve read him say in the book and what I hear from the members, he meant, tantamount to the success he was experiencing with his agency he also wanted to see the happiness of the other members because they had become his brothers, his family. The last thing he wanted was for any of it to end and for anyone to be unhappy.

We see scenes of them on trips.

Jimin says they had a chance to say to each other their thoughts on why they do what they do. Their conclusion was it was because of us. They never had time before to contemplate how far they’ve come or what they’ve achieved and whether any of that success was worth something to them. What WAS valuable to them was us, the fans who stood up for them in ways they never imagined a fandom would step up and do.

We see scenes of them interacting with Army at concerts.

They finally had a tangible reason they could see and feel when they began to question why they were doing what they were doing and why they were putting themselves through challenges when they didn’t have to. The faces of Army in front of them during concerts was their reason for existing.

They were all on the same page in that respect.

Again, the footage from different points in time illustrate what the members speak about. Different shots of BBMAs underscore Jimin’s thoughts about the response they get from overseas. He thinks it is fascinating, and even recently during this interview for this documentary from early 2022, he’s contemplating about why overseas fans like them so much. They were in awe, they were trying to figure it all out. He said he thought just being at the BBMAs, just being able to perform in front of all these other famous artists, would make Army proud of them. Jimin wants to be the artist that the fans are proud of.

Jimin says things changed so much (from the Wings Tour to the Love Yourself/Speak Yourself Tour), they were flying private jets, they had more security guards, the size of the venues was huge and they were treated differently.

The Love Yourself/Speak Yourself tour took them to sold out stadiums all over the world. This was their biggest tour. Hindsight now, it was their last true world tour.

Namjoon nailed it when he said it’s their sincerity that nationality, race, age, gender should not hinder anything, should not be a roadblock to happiness, success, love. Just speak yourself. They are the perfect example of all of that.

Their positive message is what resonates with fans, some who have admitted its changed their lives. It is a unifying message when there is so much divisiveness in the world.

At the end of 2018 they were spreading this message everywhere.

On Sept. 25 they addressed the UN in New York. The next day they are at a photoshoot for their first cover of TIME magazine.

At the end of October they received the Korean Popular Culture award: The Fifth Order of Cultural Merit.

They attended the AMAs and the Grammys for the first time.

Tae said though they learned how to face difficult situations, they were missing something. They had no personal lives. Touring was hard. Concerts, performing, being recognized and awarded were all thrilling and exciting. But traveling, the grueling schedules, living in hotels with nothing to do was grinding on their mental state.

And they were all feeling different ways about it. Namjoon felt like work was the only thing satisfying at that time. Yoongi says it felt like all he did was work.

Bang PD says the bigger you are the more risks you have and the more you have to lose, the more success you have, the more worries you have. The team was experiencing growing pains. It was a natural process.

The second half of the tour, the Speak Yourself half, is when they began hitting stadium after stadium. Previous venues so far on the tour were mostly arena-sized. It was in May 2019 when they performed for the first time in the Rose Bowl stadium.

This is when Namjoon says it won't be easy for another Korean artist to sell out stadiums of those sizes all over the world again.

They knew they were making history as Koreans, as Asian artists.

The aerial shots of the stadiums is amazing.

At the end of the LY/SY World Tour, October 2019, they have overcome their reticence to continue. They've renegotiated their contract. They had to have an idea of what they were going to do next. They know why they do what they do and they are grateful to be able to do it for Army.

"Apparently Jimin and Sofia met back in 2019 at the bbmas so I wouldn't be surprised if they exchanged information back then and has been in contact every since."

She just took a picture with bts when they were on the red carpet and they didn't even seem to know who she was lol. The introduction probably came later. Maybe when jimin was working on MUSE. She's also under universal so that's probably how they got linked.

I'm curious to hear how she'll sound on a song with jimin. I feel like her songs don't tell much about how it could sound. But I know jimin must have had a vision when he decided to include this collab on MUSE.

Also I'm proud of jimin it's nice to see him branching out and reaching out to people for his music. He worked with several new producers and even collabs for MUSE. For with you and vibe sungwoon and taeyang reached out to him but since this is his album I figured he had something specific in mind when picking Sofia, Loco, and the producers so I think it's great that with more opportunities he gets to try a lot of new stuff. With bts they were stuck in the same zone for so long I figured it got comfortable but now he can do so many things for himself and that's great. Him getting to write and produce all of his music too. We've come a long way from him never getting to share the music he made for bts albums.

Coming back from listening to a couple of her songs and I don’t have any strong opinions, but I can hear them harmonizing in my head. Her singing voice is like 2 or 3 notches deeper than Jimin’s, so I think it’s gonna be interesting to hear him bounce off her and it’ll be a nice contrast.

I also think it’s cool that Jimin isn’t necessarily confining himself to his core team, and is experimenting with other people. I think regardless of who he ended up working with, since Jimin also has a really heavy hand in MUSE his musical ear was definitely gonna play the center and deciding role.

It’s so rewarding to get to see Jimin develop into the great multifaceted solo artist I always knew he could be and all the responsibilities he took on between FACE and MUSE. Like I’m real proud of him
