In the seom update 2.0 is so adorbs! Reminds me of playing habbo during the days 🤣😭💜

[anpanmann]

ahh i got joon’s bicycle 🚲🥺

[soicykoo]

Best story youve read on here👀

Paradise by @minisugakoobies

-This whole series is just hot asf. The chapters get better everytime too! Def recommend it! This jungkook is hot and sweet all at once. (Jungkook is always hot but just go read this because you’ll understand what im saying) He’s just down right fine as hell. OC is a hot girl and no one can tell me differently, I love her! definitely one of my favs. OC and JK’s chemistry is not to be taken lightly🥵

Practice by @chryblossomjjk

-I still remember when i read the “whats your favorite color?” Part of chapter 1, this story is so good! OC is relatable, and I love their dynamic🥰. Jungkook is magnetic asf no matter what you may feel for him at times while reading. I would tell you more but you just have to go experience this series in all its greatness. You wont be disappointed!

In the seom by @thvhoe

-Jungkook is hot as fuck yet again? but what’s new? OC is precious and learns to assert some boundaries!

The progression of the relationship is just *chefs kiss*

Jungkook and OC just make me happy😇. I dont wanna spoil anything but just know I was team Jk from the beginning bc we’ve all been there. Great story and again character development >>>>

Long way home by @sparklingchim

Okay, so your heart is gonna break every now and then but thats okay bc its JK. I seriously love dad jk! This story alone made me fall in love with dilf koo lol. The angst, the emotion, it’s all just so good. Again, I’m not gonna spoil anything but it really is interesting to see how both OC and JK develop here. Love this story so muchhhh😘

-final note: honest to goodness…I love everything by each of these writers! So.. dont just exclusively check those out. EXPLORE EVERYTHINGGG. I just thought these were some nice recommendations for the time being. Ill try and post more later on, but these are always in my brain lol 🥰🥰🥰 happy reading

[roo-bastmoon]

Talk about tone deaf... (Updated with link for full context)

Here's a new full clip with Yoongi; alas, it plays sideways and is attached to an account with extremely negative solo views so watch armed with that info:

First the WeVerse article downplaying Jimin's historic Hot 100 #1, now the In the Seom game is making him out to be a weak link who should leave the team?

Take these narratives seriously. This is propaganda. Don't downplay it as a silly game or clickbait articles trying to appear unbiased.

This is setting a precedent.

ARMY shouldn't accept. Bangtan shouldn't accept it. And I hope like hell JK is using all his clout as "the breakout star" to help fight against it.

This is absolute BULLLLLLLLSHIT. It needs to be called out now before it gets even more aggressive.

FYI: btsisland_support@hybecorp.com

SECOND UPDATE: The developers have modified this segment to more accurately reflect Yoongi and Jimin and what they really said:

[httpjeonlicious]

✨ 💖 my favorite jungkook ffs 💖 ✨

—> the ones i’m recommending are definitely worth reading!! I’ve read these more than TWICE and i’m still obsessed 😌 --> ALL OF THESE FICS ARE 18+ MINORS DO NOT INTERACT --> show love and appreciation to the authors

1999 | jjk (m) by tattookoo ✿ ✮ ⚡︎ (childhood neighbors to friends to lovers)

summary: the year was 1999. boybands were wearing all-white outfits, everybody wanted an ibook or a tamagotchi, tlc didn’t want no scrubs, fight club was playing in movie theaters and you became jeon jungkook’s fake girlfriend in order to fix his reputation.

2002 | jjk (m) by tattookoo ✿ ✮ ⚡︎ (est relationship au)

summary: the year was 2002. kelly clarkson won the first season of american idol, mtv had everybody glued to their tvs, von dutch was the brand, people were total losers if they didn’t quote shrek or harry potter and you broke the distance with your pro athlete boyfriend, jungkook.

related drabbles -> may 18 | tiny

my note:

i highly recommend reading 1999 (and the related drabbles) this story is in my top 10. i've probably read the story like 4 times now... (im not even joking). both jk and y/n have a special place in my heart. i absolutely adore all the characters in the story. its so well written *chefs kiss* i truly hope you enjoy it like i did ♡ YALL I CANNOT FIND THIS FIC ANYMORE. IF U KNOW WHAT HAPPENED PLEASE LMK 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

☆ ★ ✮ ★ ☆ ☆ ★ ✮ ★ ☆ ☆ ★ ✮ ★ ☆ ☆ ★ ✮ ★ ☆ ☆ ★ ✮ ★ ☆ ☆ ★ ✮ ★

next couple of recommendations are mostly gonna be from @thvhoe because i love all her stories so much. all these stories are amazing, creative, stunning, all of the above.... they literally are the definition of chefs kiss 🤌🏻 bon appetit b1tch3s ♡♡♡ :) send her love and kisses <;/3

Fight Or Flight|jjk (m) ✿ ✮ by thvhoe (best friends brother)

summary: You want to disappear and sink into the ground—we're talking code red. As a result of the horrible events of accidentally sending your nudes to your best friend's brother, your life appears to change drastically. Beautiful, arrogant, and quickly developing into a star fighter—many factors should prevent you from falling for Jeon Jungkook. For years, you've kept your feelings for him a secret. Yet, ever since he has seen you in your underwear, it can become difficult to conceal your emotions when you see him practically daily.

Our Not So Secret Secret|jjk (m) ✿ ✮ by thvhoe (college AU)

summary: When someone learns that Jungkook has been secretly keeping a puppy in his room despite not being allowed to, he turns to ask the only other person who knows about his secret for help. And suddenly you two—who had long been bitter enemies—get very close. (i re-read this story at least twice a month this is literally amazing. highly recommend this one!!!!!)

IN THE SEOM MASTERPOST|jjk (m) ✿ ✮ ⚡︎ by thvhoe (college AU)

summary: Always the friend, never the girlfriend. Jeon Jungkook doesn't date. At least that's what he thought until he met you, a chemistry student who seemed to have it all—except for love. Meeting at a mutual friends frat party, you hit it off right away. However, due to both of your stubbornness, it has never progressed beyond being friends with benefits. The annual camping trip with your friend group was supposed to be the turning point in your relationship with Jungkook. But what happens when your best friend of 18 years unexpectedly comes back from Busan and confesses to you, further complicating matters?

MUSCLE PIG|jjk (m) ✮ by thvhoe

summary: Your winter blues lead you to join a gym, where you encounter a person you'd prefer to avoid. However, because the odds are never in your favor, you wind up running into him. Eventually, one thing leads to another, and...

THE LAW OF ATTRACTION MINI SERIES| jjk (m) ✿ ✮ ⚡︎ by thvhoe (Lawyer Millionaire Jungkook x Student apprentice Reader)

summary: Being the most prominent attorney in South Korea, Jeon Jungkook enjoys the fame, wealth, and marriage that go along with it. Although Jungkook realizes that he may have taken life too quickly and needs to slow down a bit, he finds solace in the daughter of his Boss.

CHAPTER 1

CHAPTER 2

CHAPTER 3

CHAPTER 4

Don't Blame Me|jjk (m) ✿ ✮ ⚡︎ by thvhoe (Neighbours to lovers AU)

summary: Jungkook is known for his good looks and is often described by your friends as "daddy material." Funny enough, he actually was a daddy. The daddy of the baby girl you babysit every Saturday. Working as a nanny for the world's grumpiest single dad should have been easy, but you can't keep your eyes off him. He's handsome, a little arrogant, with broad shoulders and strong tattooed arms. And when he decides he can't keep his hands off of you. Who are you to resist?

SPICY 'N SWEET MASTERPOST|jjk (m) ✿ ✮ ⚡︎ by thvhoe (Boxer Jungkook x shy ballerina Reader)

my note: im currently reading this mini series and let me tell u, this is so good. idk if its bc its boxer jk x ballerina y/n BUT ITS SOO GOOD. this is currently an ongoing series but its definitely worth the wait

summary: Jeon Jungkook is the perfect guy… to piss off your parents. He’s buff, inked up and the definition of their worst nightmare but hey, when love comes knocking on your door there’s not much you can do. It’s not like you planned on falling for him… it just kind of happened, and honestly, you're not even mad about it. Not at all.

Theme and what does it mean?

Ok I love this. Might be a long answer.

I don't know how much input he had into Compose Coffee's storyboard for this - though love that they got the memo 😂 - but the others are all his work and vision (as far as I know)

Simple answer:

It's two men in a bed in the only way he was able to show that. And in Slow Dancing, the queer cast of the MV all become Tae. He is them, they are him. It all feels queer coded to me.

Complicated answer:

I went to film school, right, 8000 years ago cos I'm ancient, and mirrors were always like shorthand for opposing ideas inside one person. Being at war with yourself or a hidden side. A mirror suggests another side of yourself or a visual representation of the duality of dark and light, good vs evil, real vs fake.

Clones are basically mirrors but less insular if that makes sense. What we see in a mirror is usually a thing we do alone. Clones are a more outward expression of duality, I think? It feels like look at me. There's more to me than the single dimension you're asked to believe.

So I think that's about sexuality, the face he has to present to the public vs the reality, but I wonder if there's another layer sitting alongside...

Promise this is related but I've been playing In The Seom recently. So cute but I find it funny how the mainstream characterisation is so limiting? JK is a gym bunny. Suga is tired. RM is studious. Hobi is happy all the time. V is dreamy and childlike. I get that a little game can't be an in depth character study but it's not just the game. Run BTS captions are rigid about these archetypes even when their behaviour opposes them. There's like a rigid set of rules they adhere to and key stories that get trotted out to support a narrative. (In this narrative, he's V who, to me, is different to our real Taehyung.)

I feel like this must be restricting for all of them (and they've kicked out against it since hiatus, I think, explicitly in the case of Joonie, Yoongi and JK) but especially for a person like Tae who is smarter, kinder, funnier, more knowledgeable and savvy and determined than they'd have us believe. He is not permanently head in the clouds, he's actually quite strong and firm in his convictions. He believes in things and goes to bat for them.

I think about him saying, in that last group live, "I can look after myself when I need to." Like fully let's be real now. Bear emoji is cute but I'm a grown man.

I think this clone imagery could have a secondary meaning of I am more than just V. Here's Taehyung. See me now?

I loved this question 💜💜💜

bts fic recommendations | 03.07.23

→ hi friends! this is a little segment i do every tuesday (reviewsday get it, aren’t i funny, pls tell me how funny i am) where i read and review two-three fics. as a content creator, i know how big of a role other creators play in your growth, therefore, i want to do my part in making sure everyone gets the recognition they deserve! so with that being said, please check out the amazing fics listed below. make sure to like, reblog, and leave feedback! ♡ #reviewsday #kikirecs

stardust - @euphoricfilter (jjk x reader | fluff, smut, f2l)

summary:  if jungkook would have known an unintentional orgasm would have led to this, then he would have begged you to work out with him sooner.

naur bby when i tell you i loved this from the first paragraph...

"If every living being’s foundation is made of stardust, scattered when born, then Jungkook thinks the two of you were made from the same star."

and the way you continued the analogy throughout was pure literature gold (or should i say diamond teehee). its stuff like this that i read and im like damn, the moots are really out here posting fics that could easily be published best sellers for fucking free!! how lucky are we!!!

OOF AND THE PILLOW PRINCESS COMMENT HAD ME LOOKING AROUND THE ROOM BLUSHING BC HOW DOES HE KNOW ME LIKE THAT I FELT CALLED OUT LMAO

and the whole workout scene hits even better after his workout live like i legit was able to visual everything... and sex in the mirror will never not be top tier :')

i love this jungkook dearly. this is how i imagine irl jk yk? just that hopeless romantic vibe, feeling that he has someone on this earth that is meant for him and he's meant for them. thats encapsulated so beautifully in this fic. such beautiful writing, thank you for blessing us with this fucking masterpiece!!

knee high socks - @minniesvenus (jjk x reader | smut, college au)

summary: after being obsessed with you and your knee high socks for forever, jungkook can't believe that you finally notice him.

okay so do you ever just hear a song or smell a smell that feels so incredibly nostalgic and fills your head with dreamy thoughts and stars and stuff... that's exactly how i felt while reading this! like i just kept thinking of the arctic monkeys song and the way you characterized jungkook's crush is just so authentic. its just that pure school crush feeling where you anticpate seeing this person and the more time you see them you pick up on little things and it makes you fall even deeper oof. there's just something so fimilair about the way you wrote this and it's probably one of the most realistic depictions i've seen of the natural progression of a crush like uGH THE FUCKING TALENT !!!

and it makes you root for him so much like i was internally cheering for him when she asked him to sit next to him. it was so fucking wholesome and sweet i screamed

and then shit got unwholesome real quick whew

her giving him praise actually made me so happy though! like you definitely inspired me to write more of that bc its so refreshing and cute!! and the smut was saur naughty but so sweet bc she was just guiding him through the motions and once again it just felt so natural which is no easy feet!! like you really hit the nail on the head with this one and it will be added to my comfort fic list asap!! so so so lovely!!

in the seom: love for dummies - @thvhoe (jjk x reader | smut, fluff, angst, fwb, college au, camping au)

summary: always the friend, never the girlfriend. jeon jungkook doesn't date. at least that's what he thought until he met you, a chemistry student who seemed to have it all—except for love. meeting at a mutual friends frat party, you hit it off right away. however, due to both of your stubbornness, it has never progressed beyond being friends with benefits. the annual camping trip with your friend group was supposed to be the turning point in your relationship with jungkook. but what happens when your best friend of 18 years unexpectedly comes back from busan and confesses to you, further complicating matters?

OoF WHAT A FUCKING OPENING SCENE LMAO!! i was horny from fucking JUMP!!! and kook juggling between pet names and not knowing what to call her made me giggle but always made me extremely soft like aw :') <3

and y/n really whipped that fuckboy into shape we love to see it!! he better buy gifts n work for the coochie!!! >:(

"Pookie🩶: Can't sleep. Send me a pic of your boobies?"

this had me cackling bc this behavior is saur... annoyingly endearing like he legit is a big baby and i love him lmao even though unholy he is extremely cute.

^y/n and i both having immaculate taste and listening to ditto

and i am so thankful things turned out well for this pairing. i felt so sad for him like ugh the protectiveness and worry over her. he was generally just so wholesome throughout this entire fic. def a fav protrayal of jungkook. thank you so much for sharing this beautiful peice with us my love!

BTS Japan 4TH Muster Fan Meeting

[mrs-monaghan]

Jimin seeing a acc on weverse with a pic of him and jk with their cheeks close to eo, named “mimikookie” in korean with 🐥🐰, talking about letter: omg i will cheer it

Jungkook seeing some user with the name "kookminaredating" in korean on in the seom: omg gonna accept them in my private room

idk guys I think they want to say something to us...

Can't believe Jimin missed his man twerking on him

[whatifyoulivelikethat]

I believe you have a name for this…phenomenon

https://x.com/boobkoos/status/1735202897976283415?s=46

HAHAHA XD I can't take credit though, "the biggest peepers of them all" is actually part of JK's official bio for BTS Island: In The SEOM

the resemblance is uncanny (ÒᴗÓ) !

you'll find that I will take a bit and get it, let it roll run it to the ground kekeke

p.s. "wiyllt, surely you didn't-?"

yes, I did

[ssamou]

It was just supposed to be a tour, and it was just supposed to be meeting up with the rest of them at the main resort. The small group couldnt' all go together on one ship and so Namjoon and Chaewon had volunteered to take the next boat. This was a strange decision for both of them. Usually she would have gone with JK in an instant, or he would have partnered with Kay, but for some reason they had switched it up and then made a bet on which one would get back to the rooms faster. They were clearly going to win. The little boat had been caught and then hit a large rock before getting stuck on driftwood. Unable to budge the boat, the tour guide had tried to use their radio to get another boat to pick them up, but so far they were having trouble getting a signal. Swimming a short distance to a small island was their recourse, taking along the few things that they had. "We've already seen three horror movies where this did not end well." He said to Chaewon as he adjusted the cap he wore. He did apply more sunscreen and then offered her the tube.

The bad luck couldn't be any more over stated than it was.

Chaewon isn't as competitive as most people, yet she did qualify under the umbrella—especially since she was more upset the boat crashed not because of their safety, but simply due to the fact they were going to lose. It made a pout cross over her features while she rang out her clothes of sea water.

"Next thing we know we're going to be 'In The Seom' 2.0," the younger girl teased him before taking the sunscreen. The joke was anything to help lighten up the mood since she wasn't quite sure what to feel. How long were they going to be stuck on this empty island? When would someone come and rescue get them?

The only thing she could sum up was planting herself criss-crossed next to the waves of water pushing up on the sand. She was at loss outside of gently rubbing dots of sunscreen over her skin.

"What should we do to pass time? They can't be that far out from us, right, Joonie?" a question of fear, really.

[beautifulpersonpeach]

Bpp I'm the adrift anon. I was a bit disappointed that you didn't see anything wrong in the seom game screenshots Bpp. I know Jimin isn't your bias but I thought you'd defend him and I was shocked to read your reply not doing that. I felt very hurt. And they fixed the problem Bpp! The company fixed it so that means we were right! The dialogue was bad to Jimin and made him look weak. All the time I've followed you you've always defended Jimin even when you're firm on him and others, but yesterday I almost wanted to cry when I saw you wanted those harmful views to spread in the fandom. But maybe out of disbelief I went back to read what you said to be sure my emotions weren't tricking my eyes,,, I could see where you were coming from and felt bad that I ran to conclusions. I'm trying to keep an open mind and one way those stuff could harm Jimin, but on the other hand they sound like stuff from the past he has said.

***

It's alright, adrift anon.

One thing I hope is clear when I write here, is that I hope that when all is said and done, that you're ultimately doing what you want here. If you see something that you think needs to be changed or fixed, I'm the last person who would try to stop you, even if I don't agree with the underlying reasons. And just as I said yesterday, while I felt that dialogue is consistent with what we've seen in original content from their debut years (including the harshness of Yoongi's teasing), if you thought it was problematic then of course you should do something about it.

And that's what happened, and now the problem you identified is fixed. We had a difference of opinion and the Amazon didn't disappear, the Arctic didn't boil, JK is still being a prime babygirl, Jimin is still thriving, and jikook are still jikooking. :)

[roo-bastmoon]

Just a little reminder that since coming home from a crazy amount of Jikookery in Vegas in April, we've had:

--waiting deliberately to ride home from the airport in a car together

--JK singing With You on his vlog

--Jikook giggling and holding hands in the dark at Hobi's party

--JK accepting Kookmin Are Dating and Jimin's Little Finger into his In the Seom circle even though they had fewer experience points

--JK's tattoo artist inking JM and JK on his own arm

--cute interactions at awards shows and changed lyrics for June performances

--JK's brother liking Jikook + Bam family fan art

--Jimin giggling and chasing JK over eating ramen (knowing about his gluten intolerance before it was public)

--JK flirting in the car while sucking on corn ice cream

--JK smacking the hell out of Jimin's ass and doing couples flying yoga

--Jimin coming to visit JK in the dead of night for his birthday, bringing his own cake, snapping that intimate photo, posting on WeVerse two days in a row despite the fact he was also working in the studio that whole time

--Jimin's dad posting a photo of JK's old beloved dog on his birthday

--what sounds like Jimin's giggles in the background on JK's birthday live with Jin

--what sounds like JK whispering "JIMIN!" twice during Jimin's birthday live

--JK's birthday thirst trap for Jimin--which he posted on WeVerse specifically for Jimin, having not been on that platform himself in years

--The Busan live where JK looks on adoringly while Jimin slurps noodles

--JK offering up the story of his mom making seaweed soup just for Jimin which is culturally SIGNIFICANT

--Jimin razzing the shit out of JK for "Jungkook Marry Me"

--Jimin inviting JK to feast after the Busan live

--JK saying twice that he'll join Jimin on a live soon if he has time

--JK posting their special numbers on his selfie in Qatar

--Jimin posting about how cool JK's World Cup performance was.

Now look, they've both been busy with work and travel. What raises doubts about if Jikook are still close is the fact that JK goes out (seemingly mostly alone) to so many meat restaurants. I saw one video of him joining another person outside, but it was too shaky to make out much of anything. The coat and jeans looked similar to what Jimin wore to the airport for NYC, but I can't say that with any certainty so please take that with a grain of salt.

After 10 years of having every second of his life scheduled and strict diets, GOOD FOR JK. A restaurant tour of Korea while Jimin is holed up in the studio is a lovely idea, especially since it seems he's not super into cooking for himself.

Here's where fandom gets sticky.

JK also went bowling with Tae and friends, and did a TikTok dance challenge with Taehyung, who mentioned JK frequently before Taehyung went to Paris. Seems like there were plans for them to do a gaming live similar to Jin's but time didn't allow for it.

There's also unsubstantiated rumors of them going skiing this week with other people. You know, friendship things. Positive, healthy, harmless things you do with friends when you are young. It definitely suggests closeness, but not necessarily sexy times? People made a lot of assumptions that JK came right from the airport and spent the night in a luxury villa with Taehyung, but, actually, Taehyung is friends with the owners, and JK's pants are different than what he wore at the airport, and it could have been filmed at dusk, not dawn. Maybe they just, ya know, wanted to do a cool TikTok vid since their versions weren't included on the official choreo version Hobi posted.

What worries some folks is that there's no evidence of Jikook even doing friendship things since Vegas. Which, again, PJM1 is consuming Jimin's time... Plus also remember that whole traumatizing few months of mail tampering, doxxing, scandal in the press overshadowing Jimin's unpromoted OST, governmental manipulation over the Expo, stocks tanking, and military enlistment, plus rampant hate online and sometimes even death threats?

Those are all really good reasons to not share one's personal life or hint at a closeted homosexual relationship. Even under the cover of friendship and group outings, Jimin just may be sick of the scrutiny. He's not been going out with ANYONE.

And yes, it's fair to say that Jikook normally are always together and never really hid that before. I mean, there is an ENTIRE POP UP MUSEUM DEDICATED TO ALL THEIR INTERACTIONS. No other members have anything like it.

But 2022 is unlike any other year they've had before either.

Also something to think about: Jimin once recently mentioned that he and Taehyung Facetime each other practically every day. (It was during the live when he shared that Taehyung was the one who inspired Jimin's moon tattoos based on fan art he showed Jimin.) Think about that Vmin hug on the Busan stage--it was a chef's kiss. Just this week, Jimin insisted on a selca with Tae and Jin on his own phone.

We can assume their friendship is rock solid, but we rarely see much evidence of them interacting in their off time. In fact I cannot think of the last time Jimin and Taehyung hung out in person when not for a work thing. I can't imagine they are faking affection or bed hoping with JK. I don't require proof of them doing things together to think their friendship is real.

Maybe we could do the same for Jikook? Even if they don't post a selca this year? Yeah, it's a bummer, but it's not divorce papers, y'all.

Can I say for sure Jikook dated / are still dating? NO. I can't say that about any point in their relationship, actually. But I keep reminding myself to be patient, wait things out, because more always comes out.

There's all these little things, like JK knowing that Jimin won't be drinking champagne, but having no idea that Taehyung had given up alcohol for two months.

Clues always come out eventually.

I'll be so curious to see what happens after PJM1 drops. Will Jimin do very little promo, like with his OST? Will there be multiple videos, with choreo? Will his members be silent about this work too? Will he have more free time and thus poke his head up more? Or will he continue to be a lil ninja? I dunno. I'll be supporting him no matter what.

And even if his members don't publicly hype him up, I won't just assume that means they are jealous or don't care about him. Like Jin said: "Post, it's good. No post, it's still good." Will I be a bit unnerved? Honestly, yeah. But Jimin knows Jimin's situation best.

The honest truth is this: none of us KNOW what's going on with any of the members' relationships except the members. And that's how it should be because that's their business. They only owe us good music and dance performances. The rest is icing on the cake.

It's totally okay if you believe this is just one of those dry spells Jikook has over the years. It's valid if you think they broke up and are just being good friends and coworkers at a distance. If your gut is telling you Taekook is now real, I can't say I agree with you, but I'll never come into your spaces and argue with you.

It's up to you to seek out reliable sources of info and then make your own judgement call, if you feel if you have enough data. This isn't a cult. You are not required to "keep the faith" about anything.

Two months ago, Jikook were Jikooking like always. Now Jimin is quiet (except to tell us to keep warm and not get sick, bless his heart). And Jungkook and Taehyung are showing us they hang out (as they have done in the past--restaurants, gaming, trips with Wooga--though perhaps now they are doing it a bit more than when they all had an OT7 schedule).

And so the silence from Jikook and the hanging out from Taekook has the cult all whipped up and Jikookers feeling unsettled. I get it. It's normal to feel your feels. But also be sure to math your math.

Me? I honestly have no clue what's going on. I still feel like we're seeing so little of the full picture, it would be wise to withhold judgement quite yet. I tell myself: Be patient. Trust the members. There are things they can't tell us, but if we trust their words, that would be good.

In the meantime, please stream and vote and buy albums. That's our main job as Army, regardless of ship or bias. Soon all our boys will be serving, and the drought will be very very real. So let's try to celebrate, smile, and laugh about what we still can, okay? I think they'd want us to focus on that.

But I mean, it must be a pretty big coincidence that he said that when it had been 2315 days since November 8th…

Also, I was wondering what your thoughts are on jungkook adding someone with the name “kookminaredating” in Korean to his club in their game in the seom? Someone mentioned how everyone in the club were higher levels, like over 100, but this person wasn’t, they were only like level 60.

Thanks!

Hi anon!

With all due respect (and honestly, don’t take this badly.. I understand uncertainty and how you want to get to the bottom of things) but I’ve already told you I find the whole 8-11 theory nonsense. I mean, they even have the date wrong, so how can anything else make sense? I don’t believe Jimin and Jk are together, and I don’t even do dates and numbers for my own ship, so I’m not going to go through that list you sent me. I don’t mind explaining my thoughts on Jimin and Jk, and I don’t even mind explaining specific situations, but I’m not going to invest too much on things that aren’t actually something Jk and Jimin have done. This is all fandom, there’s nothing really. When people have to start multiplying and adding numbers to get to where they want to.. you just know it’s not real.

The second thing you asked me I haven’t looked into, so I can’t give an explanation or analysis right now… but I suspect there’s a completely logical reason for this as well.
