I HAVE A FIRST DATE TOMORROW AAAAAAAAAAAA

[dearweirdme]

The day shippers realize Jk gets more hate in ship wars than anyone else is the day I will actually believe shippers care about Jk. Taekookers and Jikookers act completely the same toward him and that is why they think he doesn't get hate. A majority view him as an asshole with only two emotions: jealousy and whipped for their actual bias, Taehyung or Jimin. And Jimin and Taehyung are the damsels in distress that are being mistreated by him. They don't care about him as a person or a musician. They make his songs, covers, and lives about their ship. Instead of being happy to listen to him sing and seeing him on social media, they get mad at him for delusions inside their head. Jk disappeared from social media for almost two years except for group settings and like two selfies. He got constant hate from his hair, his tattoos (anyone that watched BV4 and watched that ice scene with heart eyes, don't care about Jk in my eyes), the dating rumor with his tattoo artist, his car accident, him hanging out with friends prelockdown but it being revealed after the fact by Dispatch during lockdown, the backdoor advertisement that Bighit actually let get to the FTC. Jk is probably the one most in touch with his emotions and just because he doesn't talk about them to us doesn't mean they aren't there. After going through what I just listed and actually realizing Jk cares about Armys opinions way too much especially when this started in 2019 you expect me to believe just because his is more active that his now going to be more open. And where are the angry asks about how Taehyung not talking about any of these for Jk but they are blowing up your Tumblr just because Jk won't talk about Jennie or talks about Jimin too much.

Hi!

You know what, I partly agree with you. not on everything, because I don't think shippers are to blame for everything. SK standards for idols in general are crazy, and I think the hate Jk gets for his appearance (Tattoos, piercings) stem from that. I also think people with physical strength are often seen as emotionally hardened as well, which is why a lot of solo's actually misread Jk's character. Just take a look at Watpadd/Ao3 and all the y/n stories dedicated to Jk on there... certainly not just shippers who misread him. Same goes for Tae and Jimin, but I do think that is mostly a shipper thing. Tae is way more dominant than some Tkkrs seem to think. He is not the 'female' in the relationship. I think Jimin's characterization might be even more off, because Jkkrs often describe him as just going along with Jk's antics or him desperately trying to get Jk's attention. I just had an ask describe a completely neutral situation, as Jimin panicking, while he was super in control of himself and the situation in general. So yeah, I do very much agree with your thoughts on people misreading Jk, Tae and Jimin.

I think Jk is the softest out of all members. He might be great at physical stuff, and he might be able to master certain things real quick (the guy is talented omg!), but that does not say anything about his emotions. Jk is so quick to tear up, so quick to cry along with others, so quick to comfort others, so cuddly and affectionate, so deeply touched by art, he get's overwhelmed at times, and yes... he cares too much about what Armies think of him. I think that might be his biggest struggle, he doesn't want to let down army. THey have given him so much and he sees what he means to them. Jk is super private about the details of his life. I think it's because he doesn't want to risk letting people down because of that. From what we can deduce from other members' statements about Jk's way of living is that he has an 'eccentric' way of living. Being 'eccentric' in SK isn't necessarily a good thing. I feel Jk does let us in his emotions, but it's always in general terms and not specified to details much. Jk's softness is reflected in the way the other members treat him. They know, they check up on him because of it, they refer to him in ways that show it. I hate the reactions Jk gets, but I think it not just because of shippers, but because of a general misunderstanding of his character. Soft boys and men are often misunderstodd, because (especcially in conservative countries) they aren't supposed to show that side.

I don't much like the way some/most (i don't know what the dominant view is) shippers talk about their ships and how they interpret moments. Every damn thing they do has to be connected to theri supposed partner. Every time they appear sad "oh they must be in a fight" , every time they appear happy "oh, they must've just spent the night together", every look, every word is being connected to a relationship. That is not realistic. In general, when you are in a happy, stabe, long lasting relationship... that will not be the reason for your sadness. There will be other reasons, like a bad day at work, a headache, troubles with friends and families, fandom antics, media antics... etc. There are so many different reasons to make someone sad or happy. What kind of live would it be if your relationship would determine every emotion you have. It's unrealistic.

So why do I talk about this? I have struggled a bit with this in the past. It is after all someones private life I'm discussing. But in the end that unrealistic view I talked about above is the reason. People (fandom), will talk about the boys no matter what. It's part of being famous, part of their marketing is even set up to make us talk about them. I was feeling more and more frustrated with those screwed views we both mention. I try to get to a more realistic way of thinking here. I want people to stop thinking about Jk as stereotypical masculine, I want people to stop giving vminkook hate for their interactions, I want people to stop hating on Jimin and Tae. The guys are just living their lives, they're friends. I know I have little influence, but even if it's just one person's views I change a bit... that'll still be one person.

And I have gotten angry asks about Tae enough... believe me, but most people understand that Tae cannot adress Jk hate like that.. because it means adressing the ship and they will never do that.
