This Whole Yoongi Situation Has Made Me Realise That This Fandom Is Capable Of Achieving Whatever They

This whole Yoongi situation has made me realise that this fandom is capable of achieving whatever they want, but ONLY if they WANT to.

The way I’ve seen them move for Yoongi is so bittersweet. On one hand, I’m so happy that they didn’t allow K-pop stans or anyone else to drag him through the mud. Report GCs were created and accounts were reported quickly & quietly! On the other, I’m bitter because the realisation that they could do the very same for Jimin if they wanted to but choose not to, hit me!

Solos and Taekookers have been harassing Jimin and his father for so long till Kmedia picked up on it, forcing his father to delete his pictures off his Instagram account.

That is a very sad state of affairs. Why can’t a father celebrate his son’s achievements however he deems fit? JM doesn’t have a problem with it, so why should anyone falsely accuse and harass his father over it???

As if that’s not bad enough, i saw only but a handful of armys talking about it, and even then, they bundled all shippers together to avoid calling out the actual culprits!

Since I joined this fandom back in late 2022, I’ve never seen armys afraid to call out Jikookers and pjms, but suddenly when it comes to jk solos and Taekookers, they prefer not to get into specifics and simply say solos and shippers. Why is that? Why is it that they are able to call out some shippers and solos by name but not able to call out other shippers and solos???🤔

Anyway, realizing that this fandom could have gotten rid of all those vile accounts that constantly harass JM for literally just breathing, but they chose not to is breaking my heart so bad right now.

My head keeps going like “oh so they can do it? But why haven’t they?” Over and over and over again.

My goodness!!!! So well said 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

It’s a soft launch, right? I mean first the documentary where JK comes over and cooks, and now the crossword today. It’s them being domestic. It’s giving married.

Thank for this ask, anon 💛💜

(short answer to this ask: it's not the soft anything).

Before i answer i have to FIRST say....

<< I'm not directing this at you anon, so please don't take it personally - i dont know who you are for starters and i really appreciate this ask! 🌈🥰🏳️‍⚧️ >>

... I hate the term soft launch being applied to real humans and their personal lives.

Yes i know ... PR bla bla and celebrity bla bla. It's a handy bit of jargon (and buzz words make us feel like we're in the know, right?)

But i especially i hate it being used for queer people coming out. Let's compare it to a similar level of personal reveal in a hereronormative relationship...

You don't call an engagement the soft launch of a wedding, right?

It's dehumanising to see such a momentous aspect of his life reduced to the equivalent of a marketing plan. He's a person. This this is his relationship, not a political campaign.

Let's not talk about the lives of these two beautiful people in love, in business terms.

We aren't their PR agents., we are their confidants and supporters. Let's keep it that way 🙂

<<<END OF RANT>>>

Now as to the question, i think this isn't soft in any way. I think this is a freight train.

This is the transcontinental, stopping all stations, heavy cargo hauler.

In the sweetest possible way, Jimin is saying to the world "Listen to me. I am telling you my truth...

Get aboard or get out of the way."

BUT ALSO...

and mabe more importantly, i think this is not just an album and it's not just for ARMY.

Look at this:

These all sound like love songs, and the imagery used is cassette tapes. It's a mixtape... old fashioned, romantic, time consuming and unique to the individual you're (he's) making it for. Its a gift to someone special.

It's a declaration of love.

Who do you think he's really making it for?

Mimi is just always cute 🥺🥺🥺

TwiX Link

Hm. Okay Hybe... 😒

Is it really that necessary to promote multiple members at the same time? Especially when they are busy serving anyway.

&& no I don't care if it's only a photobook.

&& no I'm not a JM solo.

For the sake of the artists and the fans that want to purchase both, you could do better.

It's messy out here. 🙄🙄🙄

Could he be any sweeter?

His MBTI really is cute.

Loco was perfect for this, their voices sounded great together.

Ah Jimin-shi. Thank you so much for the smile you put on my face.

ily babe.
