AO3 Bangtan Rec List
I decided to put together a list of Bangtan fics I admire. I don't have many, maybe a list up into the twenties, but I hope that you other avid readers will enjoy these works as much as I do. Warning: I'm a big angst fan so PLEASE READ THE TAGS!
Please note that most -- if not all -- of these recommendations are for adult viewing (18+) only!

That's it for now! I read tons of other fics but here are the few that really stuck out to me!
Fandom: 방탄소년단 | Bangtan Boys | BTS
Relationships: Jeon Jungkook/Park Jimin
Rating: Explicit
Warnings: Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings
Additional Tags: Alternate Universe - Soulmates, Korean War, Strangers to Lovers, Drama & Romance, Family Drama, Angst, Smut, Consensual Underage Sex, First Love, First Kiss, First Time, Period-Typical Homophobia, Internalized Homophobia, Blood and Violence, Slow Build, Two Timelines: One For Each Generation, Alternate Universe - College/University, Modern Era, Family Secrets, Miscommunication, Generational Misunderstanding, Reconciliation, Minor Character Death, Major Character Injury, Transgenerational Trauma,
Summary: 1949: when Sun Junghee sees his life uprooted and disrupted, little does he know it would lead to find such a unique and exceptional love, that would irreversibly change him. Harder still is it to imagine that his grandson, Jeon Jungkook, would experience the same kind of personal turmoil, 70 years later.
Two timelines, two generations, one love story: because nothing can prevent soulmates to meet, and meet again — not even stubborn History, cruel wars nor inflexible families. If they have to part in one lifetime, they'll meet again in the next, or the one after, despite the past wounds they carry along with them.
Because soulmates are meant to be, no matter how, where or when.
"We can’t continue. The path is blocked,” he hears his uncle say through the driver’s window.
“What do you mean, ‘blocked’?” his aunt replies.
“See for yourself.”
But Jimin is already jumping down the trailer, jogging to the front of the car. Shaking themselves out of their cold stupor and their blankets, Junghee and Minsu follow suit. What the moonlight grants them to see is nothing they would have expected, even in the middle of their darkest doubts.
Chapter 3 of Map of the Soul on ao3 is underway 😊
Dear 2019, we’ve been productive. 2020, be ready!
Jikook fanfics (all romance & angst), to be read on Ao3:
Not All Cats Are Grey in the Dark, (Paris AU)
5 Minutes (Prison AU)
Love-Lies-Bleeding (Hybrid AU)
Map of the Soul (Soulmates AU, WIP)
New moodboard for my latest fic on Ao3
Chapters: 2/2 Rating: General Audiences Relationships: Jeon Jungkook/Park Jimin Additional Tags: Alternate Universe - College/University, Friends to Lovers, Friendship, Clubbing, Bad drunk decisions, Miscommunication, Emotional Hurt/Comfort, Kim Taehyung Is The Best Friend Everybody Needs, Where Is My Kim Taehyung?, I Want My Kim Taehyung, yoonseok if you squint
Summary:
College years are over for Jimin. Seeing him leave is not as easy as Jungkook thought, especially after pining over him for three years.
Bottled-up emotions can't last forever. Drowning them is definitely not ideal, liquor never being the right way to solve a problem - but it's worth a shot.
I’ve just updated my Jikook fic “Map Of The Soul” on ao3! More characters are to be introduced, and more drama to come!
Check out the padlet I made to keep track of the characters.
Enjoy 😘
Chapter 9 is out! The drama thickens, communication falters and conflicting emotions deepen!
Enjoy! 😘
One Year Of Jikook Recs: 2023 - 2024
Over the last year, I've read a lot of Jikook fics, some old and some new. Many of them are explicit, FYI but this is a list of everything I bookmarked that I thought, at the time, would be worth sharing eventually. I believe there is something here for everyone here. Huge shoutout to all of these incredible authors - if you like something on the list or have any recommendations, give them some love and let me know!
Friends To Lovers:
Burn for You (50616 words) by Charmander Bachelor Jungkook and whipped Jimin have a turn in the relationship after a third party helps them...connect.
Friendly Favours (76125 words) by dontknowwhatimdoing Jungkook asks Jimin to fake date him and that sucker is dooomed. In the best way. So many adorable scenes and scenarios.
i remember thinking i had you (44676 words) by mrsmorality Unrequited love Jimin is hard and Jungkook kinda annoyeding but still cute.
Nevermind (81173 words) by rkiveink Jimin and Jungkook were best friends but haven't spoken in years. Jungkook, now recovered, helps Jimin while he mourns a close friends from his band who passes away. It's a very raw and honest fic. I found it refreshing to read something like this after a series of super fluffy fics, though in the end this is also soft in it's own way.
Run Into Sin (85356 words) by eumorious Kinda friends/roommates who are going broke and struggling to meet rent enter a porno competition to make money. You can imagine where this goes next and yes, it's raunchy and still domestic at times. Would recommend.
No Homo (75666 words) by snatchim This is just crack up. So funny and still funny even when the no homo joke is done to death. Jungkook convinces his homophobic best friend to do some 'no homo' acts after a spontaneous threesome. Who knew all you needed was a threesome to get a boyfriend these days?
what am I, darling? (18960 words) by paliampelo Heartbreakingly well written unrequited love from Jimin. Jungkook flits around from person to person until he finds his hyung's lips surprisingly irresistible. I really love some of the dialogue in this and the first kiss scene is just *chefs kiss*. You wouldn't believe how many times I read that shit.
Hybrid Fics:
Devil Dog (151164 words) by Charmander Uggggh why is everything they write so amazing? I think I read this like 2-3 times in the last year. Hybrid Jungkook and human Jimin who has a sick up his ass but has a wonderful character arc. Fantastic read. Recommend this to everyone!
I See Summer in Your Smile (28115 words) by frenchfries4life Oooof. Jaguar hybrid Jungkook is sliiick ya'll and I love how relatively transparent his character is in this fic, and it still works. Definitely recommend this for anyone who needs to be eased into the hybrid world, though this one kinda blends with some ABO themes.
Fantasy/Magical/Demon Fics:
NIGHTSHADE BLAZE (131143 words) by carameLIZed_suga I truly believe this is a MUST READ for every Jikook fan. With the amount of recognition it has, I would be suprised if you haven't read it honestly. It's just so so so good. Probably the third or fourth dragon fic I've read, but definitely my favourite so far and probably the fic I've re-read the most.
Soul To Sell (43003 words) by carameLIZed_suga Demon's Jimin and Jungkook have been fighting and thirsting over eachother for years and it is a wonderful spectacle to consume. Super hot...and devilishly well paced for those of you who are impatient readers. At this point just read all of caramelized suga if you like a couple of their stories.
you love me, you love me not (164358 words) by melodrunkcherry In a series of unfortunate events, witch Jimin makes a love potion for Namjoon and Jungkook drinks it. They're at a witch school, coven thing. I can't fully remember this but it was enchanting and a very fun read.
you shine in this pitch darkness (161271 words) by tinymiminie Demon Jungkook rarely visits earth, but when he sees Jimin's colourful soul and fluffy hair, he's whipped. This is a different take on demon Jungkook that was enjoyable to read. Jimin is just a ball of squish and Jungkook an evil puppy.
ABO:
Bloom In Rebellion (189138 words) by infinitetwinkles This fic had refreshing world building and themes that was nice to see in the ABO world. Read this really quickly and wish I discovered this author sooner!
everything you do (i want to do it with you) (10113 words) by serendiplini Sickeningly sweet friends to lovers. Tae is so done with their shit and I love it.
A Tale of a Lonely Pup (51325 words) by Vitamin_PJM Angsty true mates fic set in university that is super cute!
The Rogue (226263 words) by Allnighter_Friend Oooooo if you haven't read this. Read it. Just trust me. I devoured this fic and it just gives you all the feels. Jimin is standing in as the leader of his pack while his father is sick. There are rogues in the forest and when out on a hunt with the crew, they catch said rogue, Jungkook. Many good twists and turns and some good enemies that actually do bad. Unlike those soft enemies who are kinda just...there.
Broken (before I met you) (36611 words) by peachywritten Soft. So soft and cute at the heart. Good pacing.
(k)not stuck (11550 words) by carameLIZed_suga Raunchy neighbour/nemesis read that was also pretty funny.
A Tale of Amber and Honey (74960 words) by carameLIZed_suga Old friends to lovers with some well deserved angst in ABO world. Really enjoyed this!
chasing dusk, catching dawn (17221 words) by carameLIZed_suga First ever fic I've read featuring and enigma wolf. Really primal hunt-and-be-hunted dick-swinging competition and a bit violent in the good way if you can handle it.
Harder Than a Diamond (21652 words) by carameLIZed_suga Another raunchy fic. Probably less violent than the one above but crime boss Jungkook is always a win.
Clueless with a Pinch of Chilli (35000 words) by Vitamin_PJM Their friends set Jimin up on blind dates after he gives up on Jungkook. Jikook are two idiots who deserve each other and are cute and clueless in the process.
In A Rut (21935 words) by Gylliweed Jungkook struggles with violent ruts and Jimin helps coach him through it. Really like how this was approached.
The Gathering (43406 words) by Gylliweed Every year trials are completed and the winner can ask for whatever they want. Jungkook and Jimin are both gunning for the win when they start catching feeeeelings. Damn I loved this one. Ate it up like a sweet apple pie.
Fragile (68881 words) by Neoneun_na I don't remember this super well but I do remember it being soft. Good feels.
The Courage To Live (128832 words) by infinitetwinkles Timid Jimin and caring Jungkook. Classic dynamic and story.
There for You (29788 words) by Ocean_View_Song Softmore Jimin is pining for senior Jungkook who gets possessive when a threat arises. Very cute and we love a good jeonlous story.
To Hurt and To Heal (40587 words) by rinnieluv Solo mama Jimin comes across Jungkook when on the run and so the story unfolds. Touching connections and cute pups.
Nepenthe (81318 words) by cakeandruin Jimin is an omega who goes against the packs norms but meets an alpha werewolf who can transform, unlike him. Everyone is scared of Jungkook and they live on the outskirts of the pack together in the woods. It's a domestic and sweet story, would probably even call it a classic ABO.
your fingerprints on my heart (5850 words) by nimy Jimin thinks alpha Jungkook can't stand him, but the cutie is misunderstanding the dummy's intentions. Nice, quick read.
Other Fics:
Sunflower (152054 words) by merryasoul Enemies to lovers fic that I waited to read. Me. Waiting. Patiently to read this because it was so good. I remember stumbling on this and staying up all night to read the first chapters that were out because the great characters and details captured me and the build up over years with Jikook really hooks you. I seriously recommend you read this if you haven't already and give the author some loove.
soft animal (46729 words) by paliampelo Jungkook has amnesia after a car accident. We all know the first original Jikook amnesia fic and I think this is a nice one too in its own way.
the joy of sex (31410 words) by decompositionbooks Roomates fic - Jungkook makes love in his room and seems like a sex god and Jimin is curious. Solid.
Top Chooks (17177 words) by carameLIZed_suga Rivals to lovers fic where Jimin and Jungkook play gay chicken at a party. Hilarious and hot.
And thats a wrap!
If you made it to the end, thank you for reading. I tend to pile up fics in my bookmarks and wanted to clear them out somehow - I've decided, this will be my approach going forward so stay tuned for the next one.
