Jikook Week 75 Complete (13/05-20/05/2025)

Jikook have finalized their 75th week in the military and it's time to look back at this week in 2016. The Most Beautiful Moment in Life: Young Forever was released on 2nd May 2016 and the lead single Fire was released the same day.

BTS promoted Fire on music shows for one week appearing on MCountdown (12/05), Music Bank (13/05), Music Core (14/05) and SBS Inkigayo (15/05) before flying to Sweden to film Bon Voyage 1.

Jungkook had to sit out the pre-recording for MCountdown for health reasons but was there to celebrate the win with the members. Jimin was obviously concerned about him and stuck close that day.

JK on the other hand was feeling flirty.

The next day (13/05) BTS had a second win for Fire on Music Bank this time with Jungkook back front and centre.

On the 14/05, BTS appeared on Music Core and JK made a special host appearance with a full dose of aegyo.

The other members found it hilarious and the teasing was relentless when he got back to the dressing room. I guess it is appearances like this that built the cutie rep he is slowly working to dismantle.

Seeing Saeron here with JK is a sad reminder of the harm that celebrity culture can do to vulnerable young people in SK. It makes me thankful once again that BTS has always been determined to stand together and protect each other through a united front. The maknae line, in particular, starting in the industry while they were still in school, have benefitted hugely from this decision.

With each show there was a fan sign and it's clear that Jikook couldn't help but get lost in their own dynamic - drawn together like magnets. JK with flirt on full throttle.

Jikook Week 55 Complete ✔️ (24-31/12/2024)

Jikook have finalized their 55th week in the military and 70% of their service is now complete. It's time to look back at this week in 2016. It was the end of the year and BTS were busy with a series of shows performing Blood Sweat and Tears and Fire from the Wings album. They were down one man because Yoongi had an accident at the dorm on 20/12 and was told to rest for a week.

Watching these shows again, it is clear that this was a special time for BTS and especially for Jimin. It reminded me of RM's comments on Minimoni music earlier this year. Jimin's confidence may have suffered ups and downs in the 11 years since their debut but in December 2016 he was definitely riding high.

On Christmas Eve, BTS appeared on the Music Core Year End Stage with one of their iconic Blood, Sweat and Tears performances.

They did a live that day and exchanged Secret Santa gifts. They were in high spirits after a successful stage, lots of joking and laughter.

Suga received vitamins from JK. JK was gifted fabric deodorizer by Taehyung who received snacks from Jimin.

Jimin and J-Hope both got underwear from J-Hope and RM respectively. RM received snacks from Jin. Jin received an Suga acrylic photo stand from Suga (how he rolled his eyes when he unpacked that gift - oh Yoongi). That acrylic photo stand made multiple appearances on Twitter and in Bangtan Bombs for the rest of that year.

V & Jimin were in their partners in crime phase and filmed and posted video clips together. Tae sang "Have yourself a merry little Christmas" followed by Jimin singing the question "Taehyung, is it fun to do something like this?" V's love of Christmas songs sure goes back a long time.

On Boxing Day, BTS appeared at SBS Gayo Daejun.

This show included one of Jimin's legendary dance performances. He was part of an ensemble of idols showing off their contemporary dance skills in the opening show.

Personally, I think he did a fantastic job and from the sounds of the cheering, it's clear that the audience was impressed. However, as usual Jimin wasn't satisfied and was thinking of ways it could have been better. I'm so glad he and JK are being kinder to themselves these days.

On the 29/12 BTS filmed KBS Gayo Daechukjae with three group stages including this one for Fire.

Jimin also had a dance off with Taemin. Jimin was working hard and Taemin noted his puffy eyes with concern. I remember reading something about Jimin collapsing from exhaustion as soon as he got off stage after this showdown but I can't find where I saw that.

JK was also busy, performing I'm a Flying Butterfly as part of a group stage with the other 97 liners.

Tae's birthday happened during the shooting of the show and BTS celebrated with cake backstage.

On New Year's Eve, BTS filmed their final show of the year, MBC Gayo Daejejun. JK was featured in the BTS performance of Rainism.

Jimin posted their practice session on Twitter "It was great!!!!! You all worked hard." Always supporting his Jungkookie.

"The youngest is so cute"
