Once again, Jin delivers fantastic visuals...
It's almost the weekend, everyone!!! Enjoy these lovely pictures and the rest of your week.
Bisous 💜
I'll never get over this
Although the chances of this ever happening, through basic video editing alone are so slim.
Can y'all just imagine if they took this idea and invested in a cgi/deep fake Suchwitta episode to bring Debut Suga back?
I would full out ugly cry the entire time, just the thought of it gives me a cry flush instantly 🥹
Well.. thoughts are being thunk once again..
Jimin & Jungkook as Dance Partners
Hello! Now that we've seen all eight episodes and Jimin and JK didn't take a single opportunity to "bro" up their relationship, no "when we get married to women I hope we're still friends" conversation, do you think AYS was a soft launch? Or did it just feel like one because that's the natural by-product of seeing Jimin and JK together without (much) third party interference?
Hi lovely,
Thank you for sending this in.
I haven’t done any write ups on my feelings after each episode like many have. There’s been much said that I agree with, so Ididn’t really have anything new to add.
Tbh I’ve done a Masterlist for all things AYS also including the write ups of 2 bloggers here that I pretty much agreed and enjoyed their write ups. Both @akookminsupporter and @jmdbjk (thank you two again for agreeing to have your posts linked🥹)
Do I think the show was a soft launch? Sort answer no. Long answer mmmm no?lol😅🙈
⚠️Looooonnnnnnngggg essay of an answer incoming⚠️
I think with this show and all that it has around it has to be looked at through the eyes of Koreans and the type of shows they have in Korea. How the ‘bromance’ genre is generally accepted and the types of shows celebs and idols do in Korea.
Did you know many idol groups do RUN BTS! like shows, In The Soop and Bon Voyage like shows, shows where they become parents for a period of time to kids, shows where they get ‘married’ etc. Koreans see celebs and everything they do as entertainment for them. Two idols from a group of 7 travelling ‘alone’ sure, bromance, sure something BTS hasn’t done before but…
Tbh it’s not that unique. It’s not that outlandish.
I posted this previously
Close friends and famous actors going on a trip to Jeju, meeting with other friends and fishing together.
Tbh people may not view the show the same way that jikookers are. Jikookers have the added knowledge of everything in Jikook spaces that have previously been highlighted. So we see the inside jokes and know that this just adds to the long saga of Jikook and inside jokes, we see the hyung/dongsaeng dynamic get flipped on its head and we add it to the years long knowledge we have of Jikook and their unique bond.
I think there was some ‘bro’ energy. To be honest above anything else they’re goofballs and dudes. For as much tenderness as there was, there were ‘bro’ moments too, they are BFFs and young men after all. I think the show served different things for different viewers.
For casual viewers, those who know of BTS and we’re just interested in watching BTS content. Cos let’s be real, this isn’t a show you just are channel surfing and happen across. You have to search for this show, know of its existence, be recommended it or have been waiting to watch it. For those casual viewers, maybe or maybe not identifying as army, the show was just a fun, more adult, more slow paced BTS show. With two members that after watching the show, the viewer now realises are close close friends with more of a chingu friendship and would be shocked that it’s actual a hyung and dongsaeng (if they didn’t already know).
For these reactors, they kept verbalising ‘how close’ Jikook must be ‘good friends’ ‘close friends’ and ‘cute’. (click here if you want to check out the full thread on twit/x)
For army watching it, again it’s just to them, an opportunity to watch more BTS content. To enjoy the members travelling, eating and having fun, more of the in the Soop/Bon voyage that they’re familiar with. More of the skinship, playful, one big happy family that army know BTS to be.
A paraphrased collection of what was seen from army on twit/x
Jikookers having the time of our lives with all the tender and also sus af moments.
For Jikook shippers, the show is just a reaffirmation of what they already felt they knew about Jikook. More of an opportunity to see Jikook’s dynamic that they saw in bits and pieces from lives, fan cams, Bangtan bombs, memories and other BTS shows.
The show tbh isn’t really earth shattering in unveiling anything about Jikook to any of the demographics mentioned above casual fans, army or jikookers.
Depending on what sub group a viewer fits into, their perception of the show fits that.
I don’t think anyone really honestly, apart from exuberant jikookers truly think this show is Jikook’s soft launch.
I think by Korean standards the show isn’t outlandishly gay.
It’s got sus moments here and there like the majority of Bangtan content has had over the years. But on the whole, it is content that other groups have done in one way or another, other celebrities have done, were yes they do tease and flirt and joke about the ‘homoerotic’ atmosphere some setting bring, but due to the dominating culture of homophobia, none really honestly mean it or believe it to be gay or involving actual gay people. I don’t know if that makes sense what I’m trying to say?
I’ve written thoughts before on the show, how it made sense for it to happen for Jikook, how it’s not so out there for them to be filming a duo trip etc.
Musings
Thoughts
Pondering
👤“Everything comes back to GCF with you Jikooker🙄”
Me: Yes, Yes it does 💅
If you’ve got this far in the answer trust me, bare with me I’m going somewhere with this, it’s not just another opportunity to gush about GCFs😅🙈
Remember that Jimin loves travelling with Jungkook, he loved being GCF’s main model (no matter how embarrassed JK was at Jimin verbalising it to be the case and his denials😂)
Jimin made his little vlog of their Tokyo trip before he knew the kind of production Jungkook was making himself with his first ever GCF. They’ve always like travelling together and always like sharing it with army. They just didn’t have much opportunity.
Jungkook tweeting this whilst editing GCF Saipan.
Namjoon tweeting this whilst they were in Saipan.
What is AYS then?!!
I think AYS was just a matured continuation of Jikook jikooking. Their numerous selcas they’d share on twitter, their joint YouTube logs they’d do in the beginning, their back and forths they’d have on weverse every now and again.
This show was to me, I think, is just Jikook reaffirming everything they’ve always shown about themselves to army, that’s they’re intertwined, how many times have they said they are ‘you are me and I am you’.
They couldn’t do a subunit together, they had no time to do a cover song together, something I’m sure they would have loved to do in chapter two.
I just feel like they wanted to do something together in chapter two, because since the beginning of their careers, they’ve always made sure they carved out something within that highlighted the two of them. That was for the two of them.
Everyone had their own documentaries, appearances on shows or their own YouTube shows etc. Jikook too had their own docs, but they were the only to have their own show for the two of them.
I don’t think the show was a soft launch. I do think the show was another part in the long history of Jikook showing us, rather than telling us, they’re never to be divided. That the other is their source of joy, happiness and home and wherever they start, they’ll always end it with the other. Like we noticed FACE ended with Letter feat. Jungkook, Jimin’s doc ended with Jungkook, Jungkook’s doc ended with Jimin, they ended their free time travelling with each other before enlistment together and they ended their solo releases with Are You Sure?! capping it all off. Their show playing their solo songs whilst showing the two meeting together after it all.
That’s what I got from the show.
If the show was a soft launch, then enlisting together, their portions in their autobiography, their section in their monument’s documentary, GCF Tokyo…all those were soft launches too
Ultimately I think Jikook are intent on making one thing clear. Not the romantic state of their relationship. But the importantance of it full stop.
That they are important to each other AND the closest to each other. Anything else they aren’t (to me) addressing. But they are with this show and with every stage in their career, making sure it’s known that Jimin is of the utmost importance to Jungkook and Jungkook is of the utmost importance to Jimin.
Since the beginning
Thank you for this ask lovely. I don’t know if it was the answer you wanted but it’s what makes sense to me.
Thank you for anyone else that made it through this huge answer in its entirety 😩
It’d be great if anyone else wanted to give their view on this so we’re can share and discuss
💜
jimin being a #mood cr. moreloveforhobi
Easy easy
Hello, this is Jin - Weverse
We finally got the english subtitles!!! yayyyy
How crazy is this? https://x.com/yentle1_amore/status/1838555271196475520
Ahhh, mate, you beat me to it, I was going to make a post about that! I saw the 2023 post this morning, and it cracked me up, like, can jikookers see the future now? hahaha
Stop Bus Co 🤣
🚨BREAKING NEWS🚨
A unique unexplainable case of immobilized human was found frozen in a hot jacuzzi and has been registered and filmed by the IJIWA (International Jungkook Is Whipped Association) ‼️
These species seems to be particularly good at giving big puppy doe eyes. Let me know if you see other exemplars around and I’ll communicate it to the CEO of the Association, Mr. JBFA (Jimin’s Believable Fat Ass)
Stay safe out there.
I love this man
Look at him
His face just brings me comfort idk
Just felt like posting Yoongi rn
We are never disappointed, baby 🍑
this is jimin's promise to you 🍑
Good soup 🫠
Debut BTS is a soft topic for me 😔
💜
Just saw this again and remembers that a fetus Jungkook really thought that Jimin
is cute even Jimin don’t really do aegyo that time,
have a abs(nice body), so much for fetus Jk’s type someone that have muscles. Lol.
a great dancer. Of course Jimin is. Jk’s a fanboy since he saw him dance. “I remember when I first saw Jimin hyung, he’s dancing infront the mirror, I thought that he’s so cool, but suddenly he started popping. Lol” - Danger era
And of course the “tiny hyung” by the the still tiny maknae
Jungkooks face realizing he cut too much aww
😅

When Jin is the maknae 🤣
they matched each other's freak <3
This makes so much sense!
As Jimin sings in ‘Who’, ‘I’ll put it all on the line’ , I feel like I’m doing that slightly here.
I did mention briefly in a previous post that Episode 6 of Are You Sure made me think a lot about the song Who by Jimin.
He mentions children quite near the start of the episode because he’s just had them in his music video and he wanted them to call him Jimin. More on the music video later, but children feature several times in this episode.
We also have the moment later on where Jimin sees the little girl and says if he had a daughter he’d cry every day because he wouldn’t want her to grow up.
What I’m about to say is just my thoughts. I like having the space to share them with the few people who’ve stumbled across my account. To be honest I’d appreciate not being shared with added hashtags because I’m not sure I’m ready for a backlash of hatred that could come from using hashtags, so I don’t use them. There are some vile humans lurking and calling themselves BTS fans. For the record I don’t think any of BTS would ever want anything to do with those people but these trolls just haven’t realised that for themselves unfortunately.
Anyway, back to my ramblings, I then had another ‘penny drop’ moment. I feel ‘Who’ is about wanting a child. The lyrics originally may have been gender neutral as we saw on a BTS Episode, but I think in the longer term Jimin may have been happy to use female pronouns for a variety of reasons, one being he’d love to have a daughter. Again, I’m not saying this is fact or ‘PACTEU’ as Jimin so endearingly said to Namjoon in the first MiniMoni episode, but these are my thoughts and I felt I’d like to share them.
I looked at the lyrics to ‘Who’ again and it made perfect sense to me. There’s nothing sexual in them, they speak of the sort of things you’d want to do for your child.
‘I’ll put it all on the line,
I’ll be that someone she can count on’
‘We never met but she’s all I see at night’
That last line doesn’t necessarily make sense when we know Jimin appears to be (is to my mind) in a relationship with JK. It does make sense if he thinks a lot about having a child.
‘Wanna give her the world’ - let’s be honest that child will have already won the lottery if Jimin is ever fortunate enough to be a daddy. What better dad could there ever be? But those lyrics reminded me of how you feel about children too. The sad question is how easy would any of this ever be for him if it’s what he wants.
The whole verse ‘is she someone that I see every day….’ is really suggestive of adoption possibilities to me.
I won’t dissect the whole song but it’s safe to say I feel it’s very parent/child (& potential adoption) coded.
I’m hugely aware the MV isn’t about this at all, but I also think that could be a very clever smokescreen, and I will say here I also think it’s JK dropping down on a screen in the MV, which I love, and I’m intrigued by ‘Keep Going’. I really am.
I re-watched the MiniMoni episode when Jimin talks about Muse and when he’s speaking about ‘Who’ he even mentions something like ‘when I meet with my friends we have an emptiness’. That seems very suggestive of an emptiness without children to me. It kind of threw me a bit originally. I don’t feel Jimin’s love life is empty at all. He has JK there. Since watching AYS their bond and closeness yells through the screen at us. I never want to claim i absolutely know, but I’m struggling now to see anything other than two men in a very long term relationship who still utterly adore each other and I feel very privileged to be a witness to their love.
I also re-watched the episode where Jimin goes to the studio to record ‘Who’ and he seems kind of embarrassed about what he’s shared and says something like ‘I feel like they’ve just read my diary’. It would make a lot of sense that he’s written down thoughts about wanting a child. I can’t currently see him writing down how much he wants a wife 🤔.
The reality though is that I can’t imagine this would ever be an easy or straight forward path for Jimin to travel down. Jimin doesn’t live in my country for example where it would be far easier.
If, as it currently appears to me, he would love a child at some point, I truly hope he is able to nurture and care for one because he’d be amazing I’m sure.
I mentioned at the start he used children in ‘Smeraldo Garden Marching Band’, maybe that wasn’t coincidental either if he wants to be a dad. I might argue why did he whisper to them ‘let’s talk about us’? I have never previously thought other songs on Muse could be about wanting children but now I’m re-looking at the album and wondering about elements.
‘Rebirth’ also has lyrics that I think could relate to trying to get close to a child you may one day adopt. It’s even called REBIRTH, but up until this point I’ve felt it was about embracing freedom following on from FACE and I assumed it must be JK coded but the lyrics of ‘Rebirth’ are definitely interesting and intriguing.
These are just thoughts, my main reason to write was about ‘Who’. It really felt quite clear to me after that moment with the little girl in episode 6 of AYS.
I may be completely and utterly wrong, but I’ve put them down for no one or a few people to read through and agree or disagree. Just please be nice.
Thanks for giving it your time.
Good luck Jimin with whatever you do or don’t hope for. 🙏🏻
Jimin loves his Hobi hyung so much 🥹
