Jungkook is back where he belongs, on stage.

You only have to look at the smile on his face to know how much he has missed it and is loving being out there performing. It's what he was born to do.

And doing all this whilst his hubbie is in the crowd being a cute beanie weenie, loving life, dancing and hanging out with the other members.

I believe all is right with the world again ☺️☺️

💜💛🌈

[ffjj5]

It is so good to have the husband's back.

💜💛🌈

WE.

The I am me and you are me is LOUD.

Couple behavior smh.

Also, these pictures are EVERTHING. The attitude! The sass. The bratty vibes. My man and me.

Helloooooo, this is a whole fic!

[ffjj5]

Whilst contemplating some things and thinking of how close we are to having Jimin and JK home I was scrolling back through some old posts I made (I miss having the time or the brain power to write decent posts 😔) and I stumbled across this. I am not a video editor and I did this purely for the love of Jikook, so let's enjoy their love

💜💛🌈

Lets put some love and joy on here shall we 😊

I made this a while ago but I wanted to share it again to celebrate the two beautiful humans we are here to support and love.

Another video is on the way too as I couldn't decide which to upload so opted for both.

💛💜🌈

In the Mood for Love?

<me: always>

Love isn't rare

Humans fall in and out of love as often as the wind changes. We, as a society, love to be in love. And many of us aspire above all, to have love in our own lives. But in a world of 3-second attention spans, and 15 minutes of fame, and influencers vying for our engagement everywhere we turn, it's hard to stay focused, even on love.

So for anything in this modern life to grab and hold our attention, to endure in our minds, it must have a stronger pull than all the ads and the algorithms. It must be more powerful than the best marketing strategies.

It must be a wonderful, amazing thing indeed.

Truthfully, if you had asked me pre-2018 if I could imagine myself mesmerised by the (unconfirmed) relationship between two idols, I would have scoffed at the idea.

This is not something I ever thought I'd be prepared to go to war over.

Yet here we are.

Right now I can't imagine anything more wonderful and amazing than the love between these two beautiful people who we adore.

It didn't come easy.

It's a hard-won love between two men who have sacrificed their youth to achieve their dreams, who live their lives in front of cameras and face the harshest criticism imaginable for the slightest mistake.

Many of us have watched this love story unfolding before our eyes. We saw the looks they shared and the glances that passed in secret.

We knew before they did, how this would go.

We stood on the sidelines, by turns anxious and overjoyed, as they blossomed into adults and learned how to love one another fully.

We watched them laugh and cry together.

We watched them fight and then make up.

We were there when they were so wrapped up in their mutual affection that they didn't see us.

When they didn't see anyone but each other.

We watched them grow into and around and through one another until they became inseperable.

Until they could not be undone.

We have been through it all, if not with them, then alongside them.

Cheering for them, defending them, and holding space for them in a fandom that at best refused to acknowledge them and at worst despised their bond, we havent wavered.

We have been by their side, and we have been on their side.

And what a privilege it has been.

With their military service coming to an end, we will see them together again... finally.

No doubt they will have changed, individually and together.

No doubt the men we knew before will be different in many ways when they come home.

Will they share more with us?

Will they share less?

Will they vanish into their dark fortress, or into Hybe, and be too busy to talk to us?

Will they turn on Weverse live at 2am and throw parties with us?

It's impossible to know, so it's pointless to have expectations.

But what we do know is that they have been together all this time collecting stories and experiences they (probably) would love to tell us but (probably) can't share.

This phase of their lives has been lived without us - it's a whole chapter we know nothing about. Most likely the time they've spent camouflaged amongst the other ROKA soldiers will remain a mystery.

And isn't that marvellous!?1

I find it delicious, knowing they've been getting up to who knows what without cameras or critics to squash their joy or catch them out.

Singing in the shower is just the tip of the iceberg when we know they're always side-by-side.

But with or without us, I truly believe that this is one of the greatest love stories of our time.

No, love itself is not rare, but this one is.

This resiliant, joyful, full-hearted love is special

It is worth acknowledging.

Worth celebrating.

And worth defending.

💜❤️‍🔥💛

As always, these opinions are my own.

Happy Easter 🐣🐰🐣🐰🐣🐰

Whilst you are eating your own body weight in chocolate ( don't pretend you aren't 😁🤣 ) join me in enjoying this video of our favourite and our forever bunny and chick 🐥 🐰.

[ffjj5]

So you know when we get the Jikook 'Keep going' tour, well can we also get them doing this airport trend please 😁

💛💜🌈

[ffjj5]

10 years of Jikook.

10 years of love from crushing hard to life partners.

10 years of mutual respect, support and teasing.

10 years of our two favourite goofballs never changing just goofballing together with their inside jokes.

10 years of deep, unspoken understanding of each other and what the other needs.

10 years of pushing boundaries to be seen and letting those who see them in on the love story of all love stories.

Find yourself a calm, peaceful spot, put your headphones in and enjoy the beauty that is a love for the ages.

💜💛🌈

Tuesday thoughts whilst commuting.

I don't know if any of you are Ateez fans but I am and yesterday I was lucky enough to see them live in London. It was loud, it was emotional, it was fun and it was something I will never forget. I sung my little heart out. The show was superb, amazing performances, stunning vocals, plus all eight of them are beautiful and such special souls.

Myself and my daughter had such good seats meaning we were able to actually see their facial features, their sweat 😁 and be able to watch them perform without relying on the big screens, or only seeing them as tiny dots on a stage. It made the gig just that little bit more special by having that level of intimacy with them.

It has got me thinking about when BTS do finally come back to the UK. They will undoubtedly be performing in arenas with a seating capacity of 60,000+, 3 x the size of the venue I was at last night. I am well aware that the tickets I get 🤞🏼🤞🏼 will not have me being anywhere near as close to them as I was Ateez last night and that actually makes me a little sad.

Don't get me wrong, I am not complaining, I will enjoy the concert with every ounce of my being and scream, sing and dance like I have waited 5+ years to be there. But after last night I can't help but feel like a little extra something will be missing on an 'intimacy with the artist whilst performing' level.

I do wonder if the artists feel that too? The solo gigs must be a good opportunity to reconnect with the fans on that more intimate level, with the smaller venues.

My daughter was beside her self with joy every time her bias was on our side of the stage and when he waved in our direction she lost her sh*t 🤣. She was so overwhelmed by how close we were she kept looking at me whilst holding her face and just saying wow.

Let me finish this musing with a video from the gig, apologies for me shouting San during the fan chant and my daughter makes a little surprise appearance at the end just feeling the need to sum up how she was feeling.

This does not do it justice to just how loud it was!

[ffjj5]

I sobbed, my gosh did I sob 😢

This is beautiful.

I miss these two so much.

The start of the new year is bittersweet and full of mixed emotions for me, entering the year without my dear friend but knowing that this year brings so many adventures and the return of BTS.

Guys we made it to 2025, this is going to be BTS' year.

These guys have been f**ked over so many times during their career and I have a feeling the BTS that comes back will be made up of 7 men who at their core are the same loveable dorks we adore but loveable dorks with a sting in their tail for those who have done them dirty and desire to be allowed to live their authentic lives.

💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

Happy Christmas you beautiful Jikookers 🎄

However you celebrate I hope you are able to spend it with the ones you love.

I am lucky enough to have my daughter and her boyfriend with me this year so it's a good one this year. Our trip to Harry Potter studios London on Saturday brought the Christmas spirit alive with the whole place decorated for Christmas. Plus I got to stand where Jimin stood and take a picture at the exact same spot in Gringotts bank, such a simple thing but it bought me such joy 😊.

I will also take this chance to wish you all a Happy New Year.

Personally I will be happy to see the back of this year, it has been a shitty one. 2025 is a year of firsts for me and the year I really am going to make sure i start to do the things I want to do and that make me happy.

Love you all you beautiful bunch of Jikook loving weirdos 😙🤣🥰

💜💛🌈

[ffjj5]

Its been a while Jikookers, but let me tell you why...

Just a warning this post will talk about grief and death, so if you aren't in a place to want to read that right now please scroll past 💜

On October 11th my world changed and I am still working out how to be in it without my best friend. I have never felt loss and pain like I do right now but I am surrounded by amazing friends and family who will help me work this shit out. My beautiful friend of 20+ years died after a very short time in Neuro ICU following a burst brain aneurysm. No warning, just walking home from lunch with a friend on the 3rd October and she collapsed in the street, she never regained consciousness and died peacefully surrounded by her siblings, children and mum 8 days later on 11th October.

It's the little things I am struggling with, the coffee dates on my days off, the messages she would send just to say 'love you' and ask how your day was, the random phone calls because she was putting off gardening or housework, the messages to say have lovely trip the day before or after you went as she always got the date wrong, but she never forgot the important dates and would spend her last pound to get you a card to celebrate.

One of the reasons for me posting on here is because I want to recognise how being part of this fandom and being a Jikooker has had a profound impact on my grieving during this time. In life some people come along and impact on your life in a way they may never understand because you can't find the right words to tell them, but even from thousands of miles away their words bring you strength and comfort, a hug in the form of a voice message. Part of me working through this shitty grieving process has been to just say what is in my head into my phone and send the message to this person, with no expectation of a reply or words of wisdom, but she has never let me down. Even if its just to say 'keep going, it will get better', she has never allowed me to feel unheard.

So @dgtn please stand up and accept your virtual hug, until I can give you one in person 😊

A week ago we had a ceremony and celebration of life for my friend and it was beautiful, the sun shone, we cried, we laughed ( she loved to laugh and was always making us laugh) and I started on the next part of my grief journey, to learn to live without her but never forgetting her.

Everyday is a new day and some are harder than others, work is either a blessing of a distraction, or a curse, as my ability to deal with stress and the stupidity and pettiness of the general public is better some day then others. My work colleagues have been beyond amazing and the love and support they have given me has been beyond anything I could imagine. But I know my friend would be shouting at me to live my life now as it is too damn short and can be gone in an instant, so that is what I am doing. Next year is busy, first K-pop concert (Ateez, don't get me started on how excited I am), West end theatre show, and the icing on the cake is a trip to Niagara falls and NYC in March! Not to mention the impending BTS concert when that pesky military service is over for all our guys.

Music is an important part of my life and BTS' music has helped me massively, I have cried to it, I have sung my heart out to it, and I have sat in silence and just listened to it and taken comfort from their lyrics.

One song which has seen me do all three is Zero o clock, so what better way for me to sign off than with this...

[ffjj5]

I was not going to let this beautiful man's birthday go by without recognising it, but right now my brain is fighting it's way out of an overwhelming fog so I was never going to be able to write something new.

We got seven (coincidence???!) posts from him and every word was like a chink of light through the fog.

Gosh I miss this man 🥹

💜💜

Happy birthday to the beautiful human that is Park Jimin 💜

This year to celebrate Jimin's birthday I want to celebrate Jimin on stage.

It is where he is in his element. It is where he seems at his happiest.

He shines so brightly up on stage and stands out for how incredibly talented he is.

This Jimin focus clip of the Dionysus performance 2019 at SBS Gayo Daejeon Music festival is one example of that.

I am not going to pretend to know the technical aspects of dancing, because I don't, not even a little bit. But I do know that when I see Jimin dance it makes me feel something.

The man can be a menace on stage, and he really does let his sexy side run wild. He can get lost in the moment and the sassy, sexy aura is powerful.

As Namjoon said " Jimin is shy, but not on the stage"

We all remember Kitty gang Jimin right?? Something else right!

But right now, I want to focus on his solo dances. These are beautiful and emotive. He is a true vision up on that stage when it is just him, the music and the spotlight.

To keep this from being a long ass post I will stick to my top 3

I NEED U

My personal favourite. This breath-taking dance to 'I need u' at the 2019 MMA's. How can you not be moved by the way he moves, he embodies the character and the emotion of the dance beautifully.

An analyisis of the dance is available here.

LIE

This performance by Jimin to 'Lie' was stunning. He wasn't only blindfolded but he was blindfolded whist dancing in perfect timing with Hobi for the second part of the dance. The skill level needed to do this and do it well is so high.

I have written about Lie in length previously, feel free to read it if the mood takes you. 6 years of 'Lie'

SERENDIPITY

Now we can't talk about Jimin and not mention Serendipity. For me this is top tier Jimin solo music. This performance is iconic amongst ARMY and rightly so. He executes the dance with such grace and control. All while maintaining his vocals. That's talent right there.

What I would give to see this live

It is a beautiful song in its own right but then you add in the Jimin and Jungkook element and how they have made it their own, then, on each listen, it is as if they are showing us just a glimpse into their hearts.

The performance for the stage was choreographed by Brian Puspos who Jimin always admired.

I don't need to remind you that this man's choreography gave us an iconic Jikook moment; you know the one, I don't need to remind you, do I? But just in case it has slipped your memory 😉...

It seems the admiration is mutual. In this video he talks about his admiration of Jimin's dancing and the process of choreographing Serendipity, with fellow dancer Clay. You can read him gushing over Jimin here too and who can blame him, the man is only human.

"What, the Filter performance isn't in your list" I hear you cry. No, it isn't but only because that is for a future post as there is a lot to say about that song lyrically and the performance.

But let's not deny ourselves completely

So, in conclusion HAPPY BIRTHDAY to the man who was the reason that I finally fell into this BTS world hook, line and sinker. His talent, heart, beauty and sense of humour are hard to resist.

He has been a real inspiration to me when I was going through some identity issues at the time that I found BTS. (Thanks to my daughter and her insistence on playing their music videos for me to watch.)

His story of how he grew to accept who he is and not hide behind what he thought he should show to the world, moved me beyond words. And I think by now how I feel about his love story with Jungkook is known.

Jimin is my eternal source of happiness. If I'm ever feeling low then watching him fall off chairs or say 'sketchbook' or 'hot choco' or just him being his naturally funny self, has me smiling within seconds.

Thank you Jimin for just being you 💜

[ffjj5]

Jimin is perfect girl dad material. In fact they both are, imagine how empowered that girl would be!

💛💜🌈

I think Jimin may have just seen his ideal future 😃.

This video is from Christmas 2019 but i was reminded of it when I saw the pictures on Instagram of BTS with the baby of one of their managers.

You can't tell me Jimin didn't melt a little bit inside when he saw Jungkook with this little girl. His soft smile and lingering looks in their direction, he was feeling something 🥹

They are both so loving and caring around kids and are often seen interacting with the little ones behind the scenes and during breaks in filming.

jungkook: how much do you like your dad?

kid: 100

jungkook: and me?

kid: 100! both of you are 100!

Or playing games with them

This from the most recent memories is a sweet moment.Jimin looking over to JK, who is trying not to give away how cute he thinks Jimin is being, but fails miserably.

Note the lack of reaction from the others.

Peak friends reactions v partners reaction in gif form 😃

Jikook and kids is just too cute 🥺🥰

They would be the best dad's. Jimin full of tenderness and Jungkook full of fun. Both full of love. 🥹

It's just a shame so many would see it as something wrong.

💜💛🌈
