Complete/One Shot:

Love at First Sigh (Yoonmin, Fluff, One Shot): Yoongi and Jimin fall in love with sounds.AU where Yoongi and Jimin have apartments next to each other, and their showers share a wall. https://archiveofourown.org/works/4187631

Our Names (Yoonmin, Fluff, High School AU, One Shot): “Min Yoongi,” Jimin writes the name over and over in the margins of his notebook. Swirling hearts and flowers around the words. He sighs leaning his elbow against his desk, chin in hand. http://archiveofourown.org/works/4460210

The Dutiful Brother and His Sister’s Way Too Handsome Boyfriend (Yoonmin, Fluff, 11/11): Yoongi’s sister Hani is fake-dating Jimin to hide from her mother that she’s gay, but Yoongi doesn’t know this. All Yoongi knows is that he has had a not-so-little crush on Jimin for over a year and that its kinda hard to be a supportive dutiful brother when Jimin is just too blindingly beautiful. http://archiveofourown.org/works/5924095/chapters/14552764

the moon and the stars (Vkook, College AU, One Shot): based off of Real Events that happened to me the other day. i ended up screaming to siobhandestele about it and they told me to write a fic about it. and the word moderation does not exist in my vocabulary so http://archiveofourown.org/works/3736375

Tattooed Heart (Yoonmin, Fluff, One Shot): Five times Yoongi tattoos himself with small things he loves about his boyfriend, and one time Jimin does the same. http://archiveofourown.org/works/7236649

Severe Weather (Yoonmin, Smut, Demons, One Shot): Min Yoongi has had a very, very long day.So when Yoongi opens the door to his one-room apartment a little after eight in the morning soaking wet, sleep-deprived, and extremely irritated, he isn’t really sure what to think of the man with horns and a tail lying naked in his bed. http://archiveofourown.org/works/7381792

Love, Simply (Yoonmin, Office AU, Angst & Smut, 2/2): Love happens when you least expect it. And sometimes, that isn’t good thing. http://archiveofourown.org/works/6552358/chapters/14990722

Cerulean and Malachite (Sugakookie, Soulmate AU, Fluff & Smut, One Shot): tumblr prompt from anon: “You said you take requests on here on your ao3 and I’m here with a request!

you should be afraid of me (Yoonmin, Smut, 2/2): Jimin lets him bend him — break him — mould him into any shape Yoongi wants — even likes it more than he admits.

Smoke and Mirrors (Yoonmin, Namjin, Light Angst, 8/8): Jimin went out for a night-time walk a few times a week, maybe just to see the man smoking outside. His life was suddenly not so boring, his routine not so strict, and the friendship with his room-mate not so great. http://archiveofourown.org/works/6660382/chapters/15233809

Watch the Stars With Me (Sugakookie, Namjin, AU, Smut, 11/11): One night, Namjoon brings along a shy but handsome boy named Jungkook to their hangout at the abandoned train station.

All Hallows’ Eve (Sugakookiemon, Threesome, Smut, Vampires, One Shot): Jeongguk’s lovers invite old flames to their All Hallows’ Eve dinner party, so naturally he tries to make them jealous by getting friendly with his favourite cousin. http://archiveofourown.org/works/7625926

[TRANS] ‘WINGS’ Concept Book Interview - Jimin

『 We are singers, we all perform right? Doing my best with the thought of having nothing to offer except for my performance, I think it’s important not to lose that thought. 』

Being in charge of the opening for “Blood, Sweat & Tears” must have been a big pressure for you. “I was nervous from the recording stage. Bang Shihyuk PD-nim told me ‘You’re fine, do well’ but it became a burden too, since the first impression of the song is on me. I worked on it thinking ‘I have to pull it off somehow’. After receiving the song and thinking about how I should sing it alone, I went to the recording studio and the producers told me to sing it this and that way, and I was slowly led to a better direction. PD-nim often told me to sing ‘Blood, Sweat & Tears’ sexily too. So I sang it with a light and delicate tone. You should listen to what I sang while practicing. (laughs)”

Jin chose Jimin as the member who carries the vibe of “Blood, Sweat & Tears” performance the best. “I think the performance can never go well if I’m the only one who do well. He must have chosen me because my part is at the beginning. We often talk about this with each other. The face expressions of a person at their own part isn’t what matters, the other members need to create the vibe in order to express it fully.”

Is there any part you think you pulled off the best? “I think it’s the opening. The fans really liked it. Last time when we filmed a show for Naver VLIVE, there was a question like this in the fans survey, ‘Which part do you like the most among BTS songs?’. A lot of fans picked the opening of ‘Blood, Sweat & Tears’ so it got 1st place. I must have pulled it off for them to think like that. (laughs) I worked out for about 2 years, but I lost about 7kg after dieting this time. I was pretty sensitive during my diet. When we practiced the choreography together, I was the only one knocked over, not because I was hungry but because I had no strength. (laughs) It was inevitable so the members could only feel sorry for me. Jin-hyung told me ‘Eat with me. Why do you have to do that?’, but I just told him “No, I need to do it” and continued to diet.”

How did you work on your solo song “Lie”? “It took around 3, 4 weeks in total. Organizing the melodies and lyrics, composing together with composer hyung and noona took about 1, 2 weeks and another 2 weeks to record. It was really hard. I recorded everything and threw away to start over because I wasn’t satisfied with it, this kept repeating over and over and it was very stressful. The output has to be good, so I kept recording until it came out well.”

What was the most difficult part? “It was difficult from the moment I first heard the track. What kind of melody and lyrics can go with this song? I have never uploaded any cover so ‘Lie’ is my first step as a composer and lyricist. Doesn’t this song seem too difficult to people who listen for the first time? It was hard starting from this thought. I was worried until the end, only when many people showed positive reactions about it more than I expected did I feel relieved.”

Have you ever asked why they gave you such a difficult track? “(laughs) I did ask ‘This seems too difficult, will it be fine?’. Everyone said it would be fine but I was like ‘Not this… This is not the reply I wanted…’ (laughs)”

It’s finished now anyway, so have you gotten any feeling of “I have developed this far”? “I still don’t think I have developed a lot even now. I feel frustrated looking at what I do. Thinking ‘Why doesn’t it turn out well?’. I can probably get good quickly but I can’t reach my goal. No matter how far I think I have gotten, when looking back, I’m still at the same place. This tired me out a lot before. Why doesn’t it turn out as well as what I did? Talent is indeed important, I don’t have any talent, I thought. So I practiced even harder. I have no talent so I just work harder.”

How much did you practice? “I cut down on sleep a lot. I woke up early before going to school to practice, I practiced during lunch time, practiced after school, practiced until the dawn and continued again after taking a nap and then went to school. This repeated for about 1 year. But there wasn’t any significant change. I took vocal lessons sometimes before, but I only started singing in one year being a trainee. I couldn’t sing well at first so it was really hard practicing alone. What do I need to practice? Where do I need to start? These thoughts always stuck in my head.”

You expressed your worry about your vocal on the blog early last year. “I’m still resolving my worry now. This is like my homework as a singer. I even think as far as wanting to halt all activities with BTS to take vocal lessons even just for 3 months, like at a training camp. I want to improve even if I have to go to that extent.”

Did you get to know the strength of your voice while working on <WINGS>? “The staff often tell me that my voice is really nice. I kind of hated it. I want to hear people say I sing well, but it makes me feel like my voice covers everything else. Everyone was talking so nicely, I was the only one being pessimistic. ‘Why can’t I still get any compliment other than these?’ I’m not that harsh on myself anymore. I think about ‘Yeah, I can do well too, just go with it’ more.”

Your confidence must have raised higher than before. “I do think that we’re slowly achieving what we want. On the other side, I’m anxious too. I feel the pressure of developing myself as my team is growing. We could cover for each other before, but now, even when we plan not to do it, each of us stands out. We can no longer cover for each other even if we want to. That’s why I think the role of each member is important.”

What is that “role”? “The performance each of us has to show on stage. To show the unique feeling of each individual. I don’t know what exactly is the role in the team. Before it was like ‘I am XX in charge of being charming’, but I don’t think it’s the matter of who’s in charge of acting, or who’s in charge of singing. We are singers, we all perform right? Doing my best with the thought of having nothing to offer except for my performance, I think it’s important not to lose that thought.”

Kids. Teenagers. As someone staring 40 in the face lemme tell you a thing.

You are going to be horrified and embarrassed at some point by the shit you are doing now.

And you are going to wish with all your might you’d done more of it.

You’re gonna wish you had more selfies, more photos, more videos being dumb with your friends. You’re going to wish you’d had your hair even higher or your shoes even sparklier.

Go. Document the shit out of your ridiculous life. Fuck trends but if you wanna be trendy, go all in. Fuck in-groups and subcultures but if one sings to you, do it all. Be exactly as cool or punk rock or goth or fandom or country or hardcore or hip hop or whatever, and don’t let anyone tell you differently.

Just don’t hurt people. That’s the only thing you’ll ever genuinely live to regret.
