My Timeline: Omg Hes So Sexy How Does Anyone Survive That Look Hes A God Ugh

My timeline: omg he’s so sexy how does anyone survive that look he’s a god ugh —

My ADHD brain, squinting: Wtf is he eating? Is that an off-brand crunch wrap? Is it a really flat burrito filled only with refried beans and beef? What the hell IS that —

Me to my brain: Stop fixating on the food. Look at Jimin, he’s beautiful and handsome and somehow went straight into a perfect smolder moments after taking a bite of his mystery — seriously what is that? A massive juici patty? Is he eating Jamaican street food right now?

My brain: And why is he dressed like a grandpa in a bathrobe and silky pajama pants?

Me: OMG THE THUMB IN THE CORNER that means he was hanging out with at least one other grandparent. YOONGI? Where’s Yoongi?!

Exactly, it’s the editing cut 👏

I just want explanations for the way the cameras always cut their moments up. Why did we need to suddenly edit out the…hug awkward body press with roaming hands? Hm, editors??! Sitting there knowing damn well that jump cuts are a rookie mistake but Jikook show up and suddenly it’s an early Emma Chamberlain video. NOT SUS AT ALL.

Excuse me Mr Park Jimin 😳

Where is that hand going during your parting hug?? Is this part of your stamp collecting process? Are you publicly staking your claim on that particular part of JK? And I saw your eyes look before you touched too 👀

And it's the editing cut, seconds after the second, slightly lower down tap 😉.

Perhaps it was a parting gift from one hubbie to another, just to see him on his way 😁

"Jimin and Jungkook's casualness isn't anything out of the ordinary but is still surprising"

'지민 (Jimin) Choreography Practice Sketch' write-up ✍️

Among Jimin's gruesome practice sessions and strict work ethics leading up to Face promotions, we were given a peak into a few moments out of Jungkook's visit on day 2.

What struck me (and even k-armys) is that they didn't even bother to pretend to be formal in front of the staff and camera + crew, which just goes to show how long gone are their age barriers in communication and behavior. Once again I know we are all well aware of this development between them, however it is still a bit surprising seeing that happen in front of strangers- especially at their workplace and during work, which is a formal setting. The significance of this may appear minimal to you but in Korean culture, the way you talk to someone but also what you discuss and how you phrase it is highly influenced by the age hierarchy. Allowing someone speak to you informally (even in the public or formal settings) means they now have the same rank as you and their word is thus referred to/significant on the same level as yours and they can express things way more directly. In a highly hierarchical culture with a strong respect for authority (or anyone above) this presents a disruption in an embedded way of thought and behavior that is in the minds of all Koreans from the very early age. 반말 (banmal) of course does happen among many people even those who are not 친구 (friends- meaning people born in the same year) but it is not something that is just expected automatically and in any social setting. (I am excluding family ties here)

Thus, what the international audience may see and perceive only reading the translated subs:

"Ah cool, Jungkook came and supported Jimin"

What the Korean audience (or anyone with just a little knowledge of the language and culture) sees and perceives:

"Oh wow they are speaking informally so naturally to each other, they seem so close"

JK: "I'll cheer for/ support (you)"

(*said in a form that implies promise to someone for the future, informal tone)

JM: "Come again"

(*said as an informal command or request)

Other fav moments:

JK: "Noo, do it once (for me)!"

(*주다 on its own means to give, gift someone something; in combination with other verbs like 하다 (to do) it implies doing something for someone; the most accurate but weird way in English to translate would be: "give a doing" Here Jungkook commands/requests Jimin to do the dance for him in an informal tone which sounds veeery casual, especially considering the dancers nearby 🫣)

JK: "It's awesome/ You're awesome"

(*Again informal tone, the pronouns are not stated therefore both you/it could be inserted)

JK: "Will be cheering (for you), myself"

(Informal tone, said in a form that implies promise to someone for the future + Jungkook added 내가 at the end of the sentence to emphasize he personally will be cheering/supporting Jimin on. Reminder- Korean sentences don't need pronouns, therefore you can tell he used it for added emphasis)

All in all, Jungkook didn't use the formal level a single time besides when he was leaving and told Jimin + everyone else in the room to "take care" (수고하세요).

Finally, to anyone trying to use Jungkook's informal "nope" to Jimin's direct requests to get his ass over there more frequently probably didn't catch just how """seriously""" both of them were taking that convo, as you can see from Jungkook's smirk hidden under the mask ㅋㅋ

Also just how long were they teasing and saying bye to each other if there is a cut and suddenly Jungkook is standing on the other side, still saying bye and holding hands with Jimin? 😆

This short edit of Jungkook's appearance tells a lot about their dynamic and reassures everyone that can perceive the tone of their closeness. I'm glad we could see a little bit of it in this video!

Love the moment where JK gets all bashful and covers his face with the sign and then Tae does as well out of solidarity for like two seconds before remembering he’s not shy at all and feels quite comfortable. Lol, Taehyung is such a natural. Man was made for the spotlight.
