Since ARMY loves reading so much, maybe they’ll enjoy this story— a 100000% canon 📚✨

When they were younger, Park Jimin and Jeon Jungkook used to lay out blankets in the living room and fall asleep there. Sometimes Jungkook would sneak into Jimin’s bed too — getting scolded by the managers, but he never cared (or stopped). 🤭

Even when the other members allowed Jungkook to use banmal (informal speech) with them, he mostly saved it for Park Jimin — even though Jimin wasn’t the closest in age.

(And to this day, Jungkook still acts like he’s Jimin’s hyung 🤭)

Whenever Jimin was stressed, Jungkook was the one who made him laugh and helped him through it.

If Jimin could be anywhere in the world, doing anything... he’d be looking at the ocean — with Jungkook. 🌊.

Jungkook used to tease Jimin nonstop just because, in his own words, “I like hyung too much.” He said Jimin gave him the warmest comfort and the best kind of attention.

When Park Jimin began starving himself, Jungkook did it too — just to get him to stop. Jimin offered to pay for any gift Jungkook wanted after his graduation. He used to say: “my heart that thinks of Jungkook is quite big.”

One rainy day, they fought and parted ways upset. Jungkook got lost and cried. But they found each other again — and hugged it out on a rooftop, full K-drama moment ☔️💔

For birthdays, Jungkook wasn’t big on gifts — except he took Jimin on a trip to Tokyo. There, he made a three-minute video all about Jimin (with just a sprinkle of Tokyo), using a song by a gay artist that’s clearly gay-coded.

(And yes, Jungkook said back then that he always checks lyrics before picking songs)

In his studio, The Golden Closet, Jungkook recorded a cover of "We Don’t Talk Anymore" — with Jimin.

Some of the prettiest photos of Jimin also came from The Golden Closet. And when Jungkook dropped his GCFs (Golden Closet Films), Jimin consistently got the most screen time. 🎥

No two members spent more time riding in cars and hanging out backstage than Jimin and Jungkook — not just when they lived together, but even during tours abroad.

Whenever they travelled overseas, they trained together at the gym or hung out in Jimin’s hotel room — where Jungkook would reportedly show up at least three times a day (collecting his stamps 😉).

They stayed up late so many nights they don’t even remember what they did — unless it was doing laundry, celebrating Billboard wins... or delivering hickeys 👀.

Sometimes they’d sneak out late at night, just the two of them — no managers, no friends — to eat at cozy places like White Day Restaurant, Hobak, or Antoya BBQ 🥩.

Birthdays were sacred. No matter where they were in the world, they made sure to celebrate them together — like when Jimin flew across continents just to be with Jungkook.

They always found ways to make each other feel special — like Jungkook posting a #sorry caption (except when he just said "I love you"), or that legendary thirst-trap birthday video he made for Jimin.

Jungkook shows up at Jimin’s place and just starts cooking pasta like it’s his own kitchen — and Jimin loves everything he makes, especially his tteokbokki. He has spent more Chuseoks with Park Jimin than with anyone else outside his family 🥟

During hectic promotion schedules, Jungkook admitted he missed Jimin. Jimin promised he would visit him once he was free, eat his delicious ramen, and tie his hair neatly.

During BTS’s Chapter 2, when each member focused on solo projects, Jungkook and Jimin still chose to record a travel show together. Before enlisting, they travelled to three places — and finally made it back to Tokyo, something they had dreamed about for years.

Both said: those trips were the best of their lives.

And finally, they enlisted side by side — becoming the first idols to use the Buddy System.

Since then, they’ve been sharing everything: free time, practices, showers... and the best moments with their fellow soldiers

The story isn't over yet — there are still so many lines left to write. 🖋️✨

동반입대 하지 마셈 - “Don’t enlist together”.

They say the internet is a wide and crazy space… and yes it is…

This is just for the sake of sharing and awareness, of course. But I found it hilarious and sad at the same time and I need to let you people know, because these informations and stories can give us a great insight on what Jimin and Jungkook might be going through and what they have chosen to go through together…

Just for context- I often said on here that I wanna be informed. Especially when it comes to such hard situations to accept like this military enlistment korean men have to go through that it’s a hard pill to swallow for anyone who cares. So I read stories, watched videos, documentaries, tried to get an overview of the matter as objective and not much tragic as possible.

And my curiosity led me on a korean forum. It’s called dcinside. Yes, the way I use my little free time is definitely something lmao. But I can’t help it. And these guys… these guys are strong… truly. What I found gave me mixed emotions. And then I saw that “9597” among all those korean letters I can’t read and I was like… wait a second… 95 97 makes me think of someone…

And so I translated that conversation too. Otherwise I was gonna ignore it because I had already gathered the information I was looking for.

But let’s take it slow. I’ll give you sources so you can read or translate it yourself.

-1st post (link) and 2nd post (link)

In these two, one is sharing their personal experience through the buddy system, and it’s the one I’ll share below in a more detailed way, while the second one asks:

"We've known each other since elementary school, so we're close enough to know each other's love lives and family matters, but there are many stories about cutting ties if we enlist together. If anyone has experience with buddy enlistment, I would really appreciate it if you could share your thoughts."

This makes us understand already what stories circulate around it and how not everyone immediately thinks of enlisting together since the consequences are not always preferable. I don’t think it’s needed but I’ll say it anyways: these are all personal experiences. This is just for the sake of sharing and conversation. Every story and every relationship is different.

But there is a common scenario, as Jin told Jikook too, which is friends getting tired of each other.

So going back to that first post I shared, someone, in 2022, posted this message (with that title I put above, “don’t enlist together”) on dcinside:

And this is the very literal translation of it that I’d be glad to be corrected if needed (skip to the red part to get where he actually talks about his buddy and the experience with him):

“Objectively speaking, I don't have good technical skills, but thanks to my experience of constantly sucking up to teachers, I managed to create the image of someone who works hard during my private (first and second) soldier ranks. When I go on duty, I make things fun, so within the unit, I'm generally recognized as an A-grade soldier.

But my friend is quiet, boring, and has no sense of awareness. He's not completely incompetent like those useless characters in movies or dramas, but he's a highly individualistic person who tends to do things half-heartedly. Honestly, since he was conscripted, I think he's just doing the bare minimum, and I can understand his perspective.

He always goes along with whatever I suggest, which is part of why we enlisted together. We wanted to enlist quickly and return to university at 22, so we both joined in April at the age of 20”.

The post goes on like this…

“At this point, we’re both under a lot of stress. If we do something together, I get lumped in with him and criticized alongside him. Meanwhile, he gets compared to me a lot. Since I’m only 20, the senior soldiers treat me like a younger brother and are more comfortable around me, but they straight-up discriminate against him. As this keeps piling up, he’s losing control over the juniors, and as he gains more seniority, he’s gradually becoming more incompetent. On the other hand, I’ve blended in well with the senior soldiers and get along with them.

In civilian life, friendships are what matter, but in the unit, being around him is starting to feel more and more stressful. Even when I try to lighten the mood, he just stays silent, which frustrates me.

Unless you’re assigned to a support unit (like divisions 51 or 55), the buddy enlistment system almost always results in deployment to a front-line or border unit, where the workload is much heavier than in rear units. If you don’t get along with your unit members, stress is inevitable. At this point, I keep thinking that if things were just going to turn out like this, I should’ve applied for an administrative position instead.

Honestly, unless both people are social and outgoing, the buddy enlistment system is just LL (a losing game)…”

Draw your conclusions. Lol. I’m sorry for the silent friend, honestly, and a lot of people commented saying they’re quiet and shy too and can’t help it, even though it bothers their friends.

There are also other comments, though. Someone says they enlisted with a buddy as well, and they add: "we're a useless ace duo, but we fight every day, haha”.

Another one: "If you enlist together, it will be one of two things: either you'll cut ties, or you'll become best friends when you get out."

N.3 : "Military relationships are unknown at first, but after spending every day together for 24 hours, you've seen everything, and when you get out, most of the time it ends with cutting ties. Buddy enlistment? Even friends who were close end up cutting ties after seeing each other's worst sides in the military. Just avoid getting involved in as little as possible in the military, guys who haven't served."

N. 4 really, really stood out to me:

“동반입대 절대 비추천 열에 아홉 은 전방 헬부대로 끌려감”

"Seriously, I absolutely do not recommend buddy enlistment. Nine out of ten are sent to the front-line hell units."

The last one says: "From the very beginning, it's just the two of you, so it's fate."

In the other comment section, people said things like:

“I had two younger friends who enlisted together, and everything went well, but the reason why cutting ties might happen is one of the following:

living together and being close are different things.

I can guarantee this. When you live together, you inevitably get to know aspects of that person you didn't know before, even if you don't want to.

However, during this process, there's a high chance that conflicts will arise. For example, if they snore loudly, making it hard for you to sleep."

Oh man… I know someone who was very willing to get used to his buddy’s snoring and even got punched in the face a couple of times…🤧🥹this gave me a cute aggression ngl.

Others shared that they fight because their close ones in the military don’t shower enough or often, ruining the… experience… for everyone else in the room…

Someone else said:

"In those aspects, you have to fix what needs to be fixed and point out what needs to be pointed out, but if you don't express your feelings at the moment, problems arise. The military is pretty much like prison.

But think about it. If those situations pile up, you both get tired. Even if you didn't do anything wrong, it's much better for your mental health to make up. Otherwise, you'll spend the rest of your military life fighting with that annoying person."

You see, the majority of advices or experiences share that this damn buddy system is not for everyone. Not every pair of friend can go through it. Not everyone, again.

There needs to be a special connection, your personalities need to be connected too. You need to be very much used to the other, not even similar but your orbits need to be fine with one another. Someone said something very beautiful that touched me a bit (I know, I’m too sensitive for this world):

"If you're really close with that friend and you're confident that you can handle how they change or how you change, then I'd recommend enlisting together. If you think you'll end up cutting ties with them, then it's better to hold off for now."

Being able to handle how the other could change, right there in front of your eyes, in the hardest unit just to be together. That’s what you need to be doing, sharing that experience 24/7. You need to accept the other, their essence, to find in them comfort and support. It’s not easy to walk with someone on a daily basis, imagine walking with them through such a difficult journey.

And no, this doesn’t mean you don’t get pissed off. Oh man I’m SURE Jimin and Jungkook have had their moments too. It’s hard to imagine that Jungkook who was begging JM to meet up feeling pissed off but hey… we need to take into account that possibility. True couples work like that.

They’re human, and their friendship and bond is too. But that doesn’t mean not wanting the other around: it just means accepting that you’re having a moment, you’re stressed and nervous. You’re away from everything you’ve always known and just wanna go home. You eventually should realize that the other is actually the person you chose by your side and that you needed.

That’s why they share breaks together too. That’s why they cutely interact on weverse. That’s why they send gifts together and keep wanting to be perceived as a pair.

And that’s why I believe they’ve successfully made it through their companionship, even though we need them back to get the full picture. Because they’ve always, always been willing to accept the other’s changes and to separate a moment of stress or frustration from the true nature of their relationship.

Moving on, I was basically done. But as I said at the beginning, I saw this on theqoo:

“[…] with everything about HYBE being exposed now, I find the buddy enlistment plan absurd. HYBE will probably release an album next year and go ahead with the tour, pretending like nothing happened. They're crazy”.

Then I saw these comments…

"Why the buddy enlistment for 9597? If you're going to do it, at least do it with people the same age."

"Even knowing it would cause a huge fuss, they still sent him (Jungkook). They're idiots."

And I was like… wait a damn minute… wait a damn… minute… is this fucking play about us?

I entered my limp wristed investigator mode. What did I just find?!

Why the tone? Why the attitude? 9597 is what we’re calling them now? ‘Sending’ him? What if he chose? These korean letters I know nothing about were hiding all that?

Damn.

And someone else answered:

"A performer-type singer in his 20s is so precious. Jeongguk still has a long way to go, and his album was released only a month ago, and it's already blown up, even getting an offer for the Super Bowl. Why did they make him enlist early for the buddy enlistment?"

Fair. Fair. Sure. But… early for the what?

Thinking he enlisted earlier for the buddy system only… thinking his company should have not agreed to sending him to the military with a buddy… or even wanting him to don’t enlist along with the others just to keep his activities going… not caring about the band as a whole at all… I know what you are. Lol.

Lol…

Someone sounds annoyed….

The best part? The title of that post is:

뭘위한 동반입대 인거야?

Which should be…

“What is the point of the buddy enlistment?”

And as you can see, the post did not actually ask for the point of it…sounds like a mad rhetorical question to me.

Anyways this is just public anonymous forums we’re talking about. And what matters is that while a lot of people who seemed to have been through the companion system or know those who have, do not recommend it to people whose personalities are not compatible, some others confirm they got out fine and found actual support in their chosen friend.

But above all, most see that last scenario as really rare.

Because Jimin and Jungkook are rare.

Not in the sense of unique, or special, or different. They fight and get to the each other’s nerves and make mistakes. They’ve been through ups and downs and will be again in the future.

But they’re rare because they’ve been fighting for what they share for 10 years. A decade. They’ve been honoring and defending it and nurturing it for a decade. That’s rare.

And to just seal it up with this enlistment… and everything it requires to get in… and everything that could happen once you’re in…to just choose the other, always. That’s love.

This post on a korean blog well explains how most buddies are sent to harder units, how the most common risk is arguments and stress, not standing each other, tension… and he explained how intricated and complex the application is. Just passage after passage, procedure after procedure…

This choice was not only actively chosen by both (this person explained that to enlist together both individuals must fill up their own application form), but that they know each other so well, and love the other so much, that once again the risk was not a limit.

The risk of not getting along was not a limit, because they work through everything together. And they were even excited of making memories, can’t wait to share their stories, meet up on their free time from the base, traveled for an entire year before going…this is rare.

And delicate, yet strong and lasting.

We don’t need this reminder or these words. But sometimes it’s good to say them out loud. What’s rare and resilient always deserves recognition.

I’ve seen all these posts with people spouting off about Jimin and Jungkooks relationship, behaviour, etc, but on my latest watch of AYS, I was watching with my dad, and he turned and asked me if they were together.

I didn’t think he was paying attention as he was on his phone at the time, but apparently he was watching on and off, in ep2, around the time they are in Walmart, then cooking and then go to the stop and shop.

It made me watch it again through a different lens, of someone who has zero clue about BTS. And when I continued to watch, I noticed just how domestic they seem. It’s the little things, the soft voices, the way they shop together, their humour, deciding who is driving, the way they are so casual around each other, the way Jimin enjoys the meat skewers whips his head and Jungkook (not even turning to look) knows he likes the food. The long look Jimin gives Jungkook in the last restaurant. The way they order three plates to share. It’s truly lovely.

And my dad in the end said they seem like nice young men, which made me smile.

This seriously killed me. Reading it all. Why did it hit me so hard😟

First things first anon, thank you so much for sharing this. I’m so grateful when these small cute things come out on here and we can discuss it. I must say that whatever your dad noticed that made him ask you if they were a couple, he still noticed it despite not giving his full attention to the show as you said. On and off. And for someone who’s not into BTS as much as we are, and who’s clearly not biased, I’d say that’s pretty much important. It means that for some people Jikook’s “ambiguous closeness” comes off as transparent as water and brings out understandable questions that would easily accept a “yes, they’re a couple” answer.

These real life episodes are what I rely on more than anything else. They are spontaneous, probably very much naive and ingenuous. And the reason why your parent asked that question surely depends on a lot of factors, but I’d still say that an adult has a certain experience, if you got kids probably even more and a longer one. So you kinda know a thing or two about loving someone, or flirting with them, or the way you act around a partner and talk to them. You’ve been there at least once in your lifetime.

The episode you mention specifically was very domestic (butt slapping in bed *coughs*-brushing teeth in bed *coughs*), and overall simple (they looked so shy playful and awkwardly close that I could show it to a rock and it’d scream gay in rock language). Jokes aside their interactions around that part of the show could’ve been probably disguised overall as close flirty friends-brothers behavior to a largely distracted watcher. But if someone is still able to detect a certain ‘more’ hidden between the lines, even in such mundane situations, well your honor A WIN IS A WIN

I would love for you and whoever else is able to introduce Jikook to their close ones to understand what led to that question and what’s their general feeling about these two.

This was lovely! Thank you.

NOOOOOO.....

Well yesssss.

But NOOOOOO. Not again.

Are we back to me waking up to missing JK's lives?????

Oh my friggin god.

And what a live it seems to have been.

I'm off for a couple of weeks vacay for Christmas and New years, so I guess I won't be able to watch the translated live for a bit now, not to mention to write about it. Seriously JK, I need to have a word with you about your timetable... Well, with your superiors too, given they gave you the leave and permission to do this live...

I do want to remind you that neither Jin nor Hobi came live during their time off when in service. They posted on IG at times, but never came live. Just thought it needed to be mentioned. JK could have posted on Weverse. He actually did that too. He could have taken a photo and posted. He could have recorded a short message and posted. He didn't. He chose to come live because he had something to say. In that all so very special JK way. Matter of factly during his live.

Oh, and if we are on that one, do I mention karma is a bitch? Or more so, JK is one. Cause if anyone thinks for one second that the timing of this live was a coincidence, they have another thing coming. Just like every single live we had back in 2023 that followed up a shit show (Tae lives created or fan created - "I don't have a girlfriend").

This hate wave I mentioned in my post yesterday was beyond others I've seen. Disgusting hits made at JM's dad and family forcing him to shut down the comments on the IG account. Hits made at Bam. All beyond the vile hate towards JK and JM as well. And not only on X, but also on JM's dad's cafe IG account and Bam's IG account. So yeah, JK does things for a reason.

And just for the vile haters, JK made sure to mention JM multiple times.

INCLUDING MENTIONING THEIR SHOWERS TOGETHER.

And if anyone wants to go down the path of "they have communal showers" road, I say stop!! No!! They do not shower with other soldiers. Not with JM's body image issues. Not with previous idols being photographed in the shower. This is a HUGE issue that idols have had in the past and were granted private shower times due to. They just don't shower with others.

But they do shower together.

So I guess deal with that one haters!!!!

And OMG, he sang Die with a smile.

Man sang Die with a smile.

And people!!!

He knows the lyrics off by heart!!!!!!!

Now hold on for one second.

They sing in the shower together.

Just take that one in, and add Die with a smile...

And there we have our dream come true. Jikook singing this song together.

Meant to be!!!!

Oh, this too:

They go a little away from others and sing loudly....

Ok then.

We call it signing nowdays.

That's what they tell the others I guess.

Oh, there is so much I could add in this matter...

But I'm very demure, so I will refrain from going down that road.

All I'll say (and leave the singing to them) is....

I will emphasize this one last time before I say my goodbyes.

JK KNOWS WHAT HE IS DOING.

He knew what he was doing when he came live after Tae's lives and debunked stupid conclusions fans (the cult) made.

He knew what he was doing when he told us things he wanted us to know and understand about him in his 2023 lives.

He knew what he was doing when he did his "I go the other way" TikTok.

He knew what he was doing when he told us he doesn't have a girlfriend.

He knew what he was doing when he mentioned JM in this live.

And he very well knew what he was doing when he told us about their singing in the shower together.

He didn't have to mention the shower.

He really didn't.

He wanted to.

And you can see it written all over his face. You could hear it in his voice.

Eat on that cheeky grin haters!!!

Haters will hate and Jikook will keep having showers together.

T'is what t'is.

JK came home (literally) to give us his holidays gift.

Merry Christmas and Hanukah to y'all and Happy New Year!!!

From myself, Jikook and JM's chestie besties...

Say it with flowers

My thoughts on the SGMB live recording video.

I've had this in my drafts for months. It's one of those moments that I just can't move on from. If this has already been discussed at length I won't be surprised but just in case it hasn't....

WHO gave Jimin those flowers...?

When the SGMB recording video first dropped, i saw comments that the flowers were from Loco or from Big Hit or from the SGMB band.

I cannot agree. Did the commenters not SEE the flowers?

I believe the flowers to 'support Jimin's future endeavours' were from Jungkook.

Because of course they were.

And for those who need an explanation, here's why:

This is not a bouquet of flowers you would get from colleagues, or your management company, or even your friends. This bouquet screams PASSIONATE LOVE. It is so obvious that i can't even imagine giving a platonic friend these flowers without a lengthy explanation (or a confession), let alone a professional acquaintance.

Let's take a closer look at Jimin's bouquet:

I took the time to research all the components of the bouquet to make sure i wasn't overreacting (Me? Overreact?! Never!!)

Here they are:

Red roses - passionate love, romance, and desire - 12 of these roses if I counted correctly, which represents a declaration.

Mini red chrysanthemums - in red, the chrysanthemum means love and passion, or truth

Sacred bamboo (Nandina) - the berries represent changing hardship into good, the end of hard times, and prosperity. It also wards off evil. (7 is the leaves of the Sacred Bamboo)

More red roses - either bush roses or a smaller variety. Love, again.

Red viburnum - "To make red hot". Passionate love, Love stronger than death.

Silver Wattle - hidden feelings, hidden love. (wow)

Sacred bamboo (leaves see #3 for berries)

Difficult to identify but I think it's either Veronica or Salvia. Veronica symbolises loyalty, fidelity and love. Salvia is for protection, and red salvia means forever mine.

I think this might be pink muhly grass. It doesn't seem that common in floristry but it is a very romantic and beautiful seasonal grass in Korea.

Barley grass - time for relaxation, free time, or prosperity.

Those flowers are a grand gesture

They're a declaration of love.

Jungkook is after all the king of grand gestures...

... and he knows a thing or two about the language of flowers.

So it seems perfectly fitting for him to make his heart known with a huge bouquet.

Naturally the theme of the bouquet is very much in keeping with the theme of SGMB,

The central tenet of the song is the truth untold and, these flowers certainly tell the truth, loud and clear.

I find myself thinking about whether he chose to do it in front of a crowd of people and I actually don't think he thought too much about them. Based on what I know of JK's personality (admittedly very little, having never met the man) I believe he thought of Jimin, and Jimin only.

Did he take a gift that would not only celebrate Jimin's achievement, but also show his commitment to that love and to not hiding?

Both heart and my head say yes, that's exactly what he did.

💜💛

I also believe JK was at the SCMB live recording

Here's why:

Having seen AYS, we know Jimin does this parody of the SNTY choreo to tease JK. Would it have been as amusing for Jimin if JK wasn't there to see it? I doubt it, as the payoff (JK's grumbling) wouldn't happen. Where's the fun in that?

And also:

Jimin: "Can i come over for a meal?"

Loco: "We can all go together" points to someone off-screen

[Remember that Loco is friends with Jay Park, who Jungkook is also friends with]

Jimin: *looks at person off-screen* Dammit. So much for secrets

And also:

Jimin, looking to the right of the camera, which is where everyone else will be looking in a moment.

Yup, we see Loco, Pdogg, and several of the dancers repeatedly glance to the right of the camera. They seem very interested in something there, sharing their attention between Jimin and the distraction off-screen. It would seem rude if it weren't for the fact that Jimin himself is equally distracted.

And also:

Pdogg's cute head shake at this situation tells me there's more going on here than we can see.

This song remains one of my favourites. The lighthearted joy and humour that runs through the live performance, the choreo, the melody, and the lyrics is everything I want for Jimin.

I hope his happiness lasts decades, our beautiful flower boy 💛

While we're on the topic of flowers, let's recap on the meanings of the oversized flowers on the set of SGMB:

According to Korean floriography (that's the study of the symbolism of flowers)

Blue anemone - anticipation, and protection from evil

Purple aster - love triumphs

Orange lily - cheerful love (strikingly similar to JK's birth flower)

White Poeticus daffodil - connection to youthfulness and the awakening of desire, rebirth, hope (young forever?)

Butterfly - happiness and transformation

I do have a gazillion references for the floriography, which i will add.

Its such an awesome and fascinating topic. I never knew that it became not only popular, but empowering, because so many 18 century women were unable to access an education and were therefore illiterate.

The symbolic meaning attached to flowers became an important communication tool for them.

🌻🐰💗🐥⚘️
