The Jung Family Caring For The Younger Members

the jung family caring for the younger members

just here to drop some things to think about now that we have jimin’s promo schedule🫠

Seeing them together always brought me comfort because they're basically family and have each other's backs. They've gone through thick and thin, cried on each other's shoulders, and they are always there for each other. It's been worrisome seeing them apart even though some of them seem to enjoy the breathing room more than others.

I'm not sure what's going on in JKs wlives these days, but he has always been a wild card. I think you bring up a good point about him being in the industry since 13. This is his first long break. There's no one to tell him when to wake up and shower; to manage his schedule and tell him what to do, etc. So what do you do when you are suddenly on your own? I am like him where I would just be indoors all day playing games, watching TV, doing introverted things. I don't know if he is depressed or not, and I don't know anything about psychology, but one thing is for sure: he is upset with the whole stalker situation.

Him talking about the stalker, saying he is also human, made me feel so bad for him. No matter how much we try to protect them, they know what's going on around them. They are 100% aware of all the crap that gets said about them online too. We love them and want to protect them but we are helpless and can't stop anything. 😞 No one deserves to have their privacy invaded like that. Not Namjoon, not Jungkook, not anyone.

I'm just gonna keep posting this pic of Jimin to remind ppl:

I’m worried about our Tannies. I’m worried about them individually and as a group. Today was horribly emotional - first J-Hope saying goodbye, then JK feeling like he has to remind us that he’s human, too. These young men have known nothing but work and each other since well before their debut in 2013. They deserve time, and they deserve space. They have to come to terms with not being in each others’ pockets anymore, not seeing someone they were used to seeing every day, not having the steady comfort of the known to keep them grounded. Hobi, RM and Jimin seem almost liberated. Yoongi does, too. It’s hard to say what Jin was feeling, since anything he had in his life was being frozen in involuntary ice. Tae is doing his own thing. Then there’s JK.

JK seems depressed and lost. He’s rudderless and at a loss. For the first time since he was 13, he’s alone. Really, truly alone. And while it might have been a relief at first to have some time and space, now I think it’s become an ocean and he’s forgotten how to swim. The behavior of the stalkers and the sasaengs are making everything worse, probably making him feel like he’s a prisoner in his own home, unable to go out because it’s no longer safe, even if he had somewhere to go.

I get the worst empathic feelings from watching his lives these days. I feel the sorrow, the confusion, the silent desperation, the anxiety. He doesn’t want to lose his brothers to the military. They’re all he’s ever known. And now he doesn’t even know who he is, because for the first time in ten years, he doesn’t have anybody around him to tell him who he’s supposed to be. They’ve all gone from living with staff and managers and schedules to…nothing. It might have been a breath of fresh air at first, but now I wonder if it feels like dangling over a cliff on a fraying rope.

5/24 days of Face: Jimin in hard(ware) vs soft(ware) mode.

Permission to Dance - Seoul

To quote Jungkook watching Jimin's performance in Black Swan: JIMII↗️↘️IINNN. Seriously? That outfit. His V line. His Nevermind tattoo. Is he trying to kill us? How does he look like that and then switch to aegyo and be such a cutie?

Jimin fans, how are we doing the past few days? We are being fed SO WELL this March. We got a Tiffany ambassadorship, a OTS dance challenge with Hobi, fried chicken, a wlive with a marimo moss ball, covers from Vogue, a Face mood photo, and now manspreading for Suga's bday!! There's still so much more to look forward to!

I had to wait until I got home from work (torture) yesterday to digest the mood photo. First off, let me go off on how AMAZING he looks and I can't even see his face for an album named 'Face'! 😆 I'm obsessed with the taper of his shoulders to his narrow waist. Jimin is unreal. I have never seen such a beautiful man before. He's got it all: Looks, talent, and brains.

Jimin's a genius and he's playing 4D chess with us. His album logo is gray/silver and rose gold. His 'Behind the Face' video started in grayscale before switching to color. His wlive started in grayscale before switching to color. His mood photo is also in grayscale. His Hardware vs Software photos will probably follow the same theme.

The mood photo was definitely not what I was expecting but evoked a lot of feelings in me like sadness, melancholy, and hope. It's not something that makes you think of a happy, kpoppy dance track. The photo looks like he's in an abandoned home. Maybe he's packing and moving out. What is he leaving behind? His past? He mentioned several times that part of the album-making process was having to dredge up old emotions and that wasn't fun or easy. The theme of his album is a 'circle of resonance', reflections of vulnerable minds and unexposed wounds. That scares me because you know he's gone through some pretty serious stuff, from antis to death threats, to feeling lonely and lacking self-confidence.

How do the water drop and ripples play into this? I have no clue. Water has so many interpretations. You can see reflections in the water. There could be turbulence beneath the surface of the water. Water embodies the circle of resonance. Honestly, you can go hundreds of directions with water analogies, spend too much time on them, and go nowhere.

I'm supposed to go to work so I can't finish my thoughts right now. I might come back later to finish. Sorry! Thanks for reading my ramble if you guys made it this far!
