#Jikook & PolyC

[stormblessed95]

POLYC?!

Did... Jimin and JK write their names on his arm for him and he got it tattoo'd? Or is this something else entirely?? What is happening!

From his insta stories....

I'm in need of more information 😅🤣

[jmdbjk]

The Aces

... Jimin on his Instagram. Not his stories. Happy birthday JK!

So vice president of the Jikook fan club at work again.

19 October 2023

When the president of the fan club is away, I guess the vice president has to step in.

On twitter… @KesYvoNad

Always intentional…

[mariajmajesty]

This is so cute❤️

The story behind this is probably funny and adorable

[seoul-bros]

Is he ever going to let us know?

Polyc Jikook's tattooist posted this on his Instagram today. Seems like the suspense is killing him too.

I'm Not Saying It Means Anything

But I'm not saying it doesn't

Um what?

Oh. This guy? This guy right here?

All right. Fair enough. Sure, he probably definitely follows all of BTS for ARMY or business reasons, no big deal. And it's a gorgeous photo of Jiminie, taken by gosh we can't imagine who probably a random bystander, it almost certainly means nothing at all. It’s a gorgeous shot.

But in my brain the convo went like

"Babe hey babe don't come at me or anything but..." "But what, baby?" "Uh you know how Polyc released my tattoo shots yesterday?" "Yeah, that was cool. Did the internet immolate itself overnight?" "What's... nevermind, anyway, you know that pic I took of you at Inkigayo?" "Which one, baby?" "The one that's my phone wallpaper now DUH babe, so cute--" "With ARMY's roses, that one?" "Yeah, like I said, anyway Polyc hit the heart on it on your insta, which: really happy you posted it but I just didn't want you to see that and panic, like you do." "Baby, 375,000 people liked that pic. I'm sure nobody will notice." "Um okay babe if you're sure, I mean I didn't because you always yell not that it matters that HOBI DID but anyway" "Stop pouting, baby. Hobi has to be loudly homosexual about all of our posts, it would look weird if he didnt." "Well I don't wanna ask Polyc to take his like back before he finishes that new piece." "Which new piece, baby?" "Uh maybe the one I paid for so when you go in next time you can get 전정국은 나를 사랑한다 on your ass"...

Poly c and Tommy love Jimin more than pjms, jkks and tkkrs combined . Seeing all the things people say about their bond is making me sick and the reaction to their project when it will finally air will be horrendous judging by how disgusting people are already!! Thankfully they are surrounded with good people and close family and don't give a damn about the noise. I hope they are making good memories and enjoy their time as much as possible! they deserve it

Rambling in INFJese - Part 7: ARMY across; JM down

Perreo Pesau’ - by Rauw Alejandro  [Afrodisíaco]

[Music is a very big part of my life and I’m MOSTLY INCAPABLE of writing without music, so I just thought I'd share what I am listening to while writing this]

🐺 — 🐺 — 🐺— 

For the longest time now I’ve debated on whether to make this a “Naked - Series” post or an “INFJese - Series”. When I write posts for the Naked Series I am able to dive deep and completely immerse, because I am able to reason through events given on the multitude of provided facts. Hence I can confidently express my opinions, while obviously trading carefully.

In this case however, I ended up going for INFJese because there is so much to unpack and ironically enough, even though they are clearly visible and meant to be so, they are also the one thing about JK we haven’t heard him discuss or ever directly allude to (except for the number “7” of course), which is an indication to just how personal they are to him. Yet, we can still make a couple of educated guesses and respectful speculation about them; about JK’s Tattooes and a bit of JM’s as well.

This post was brought about by this ask → HERE. Originally, I was just going to reply to it directly, sticking to the POLYC question. However, as I kept researching, questioning and reasoning, I had too many questions formulating and all the answers that I found kept slowly taking me back, one tattoo at a time, to the very beginning. So here we are, rambling about tattoos with a naked-series undertone, I can already tell…😬

So 🎵Let’s start at the very beginning, a very good place to start 🎶the date is August 11, 2019. BTS performs at the LOTTE DUTY FREE FAMILY CONCERT, which will turn out to be their last performance before they embark, for the very first time, a period of break as announced by BH in the following statement:

From this point on, our boys will take a “break” and enjoy their free time. For the most part each member spent time doing things they wanted and didn’t really meet with each other, except on one occasion: JK’s birthday. Jimin and J-Hope would visit our golden maknae for his birthday. JM would bring him presents, a cake, take a picture and post it on twitter on September 1, 2019. Now if you are a JKKer you will have already seen that picture, what however you may not have noticed is that, it appears that JK already had the smiley face tattoo on his finger, as pointed out by this person (don’t worry, I’ll reveal the blackout picture in a sec…)

Here is the original tweet so you can see for yourself, and make your own conclusion on whether or not it appears that he already has the smiley face, or a temporary version of it:

At this point in time JK is happily enjoying his break, exercising to his heart content, potentially has his first tattoo, perhaps as a birthday present to himself. He’s also celebrated his birthday with friends, while being surprised by one particular member JM. Considering the important JK places on birthdays, and special days, I’d say that all was more than peachy in KooKooLand. 

However, as life often does, when you reach any happiness-related peak, due to happiness’ ephemeral nature, a descent/fall is bound to happen soon after. September 8, 2019 rolls around. A certain picture starts circulating and trending:

The picture’s source, as always, is uncertain and debated:

Some say it came from JK’s brother's IG account (but by that time he’d already closed his previous account…)

Some say it came from a 2018 picture found on pintrest (which, common now 😑 …)

Some say it came from an OP who mate JK (this is the version I tend to believe, I meddled through a lot of tweets stating this, as I think that picture is indeed JK’s hand, not so much for the ARMY tattoo, but for the 0613 one under his thumb) 

Anyways, as always, the bird app began to chirp:

At this point, in this picture that is circulating, his hand only has:

0613

ARMY 

🥴

Crown

Though we can’t see the full hand from that picture, so the 💜 might have already been there, his hand will eventually have:

(💜)

ARMY logo (this is also a bit debatable, because of the sleeve in the Churro-Pic we can’t tell if it was there, but the first time it was officially seen was October 9, 2019 on their way to their concert in Saudi Arabia)

+ + +

J

Now, it is perfectly normal to go back and finish a tattoo, but this usually is, I do the frame and then take my time and do the coloring, which is what the “The hand tattoo is a representative of the members”-brigade says. However, JK’s hand tattoo has no color filling or complicated design, I believe that if writing the members name had been his intent he would have done it all in one go, as it is NOT a complicated tatt to get, and getting in parts would have made NO SENSE.  

Anyways,  this bird app is chirping and nobody seems to know where the picture came from but eventually the consensus is that it is fake because; “why the hell would JK go around with ARMY tattooed on his hand?!” like so:

And to this point all that JK might be seeing is himself trending for a tattoo he actually has and eventually we would see, not a very bothersome scenario, but most likely one he could live with, but then came September 16, 2019 well into September 17, 2019. They came in like wrecking balls. 

September 16, 2019 JK (and the members) is at Incheon airport getting ready to go to Australia to film Bon Voyage 4, and 🎶Oop! There is! 🎵 his first time publicly showing his tattoos. 

Cool right? But then, and I don't know exactly the time frame because it all seems to have happened at the same time please remember I’m a 2020 ARMY, JK is shown back hugging and drinking with  the now infamous tattoo artist Mijoo on a leaked CCTV camera footage and all hell broke loose. All sorts of speculations are made but the most popular one is that Mijoo is JK’s girlfriend and following are the actions that were instantly taken (by instant I mean 16 were the rumours. 17 the BH statement was made):

Mijoo denied being in a relationship with JK (here → https://www.allkpop.com/article/2019/09/tattoo-artist-denies-shes-dating-btss-jungkook)

BH denied Mijoo being in a relationship with JK (here → https://www.soompi.com/article/1352928wpp/big-hit-entertainment-denies-bts-member-jungkooks-dating-rumors)

I cannot imagine what was going through JK’s mind, given that the way it appeared at the time he took off with people shook at his tattoos and landed with people outraged at him allegedly dating someone and don’t even get me started on him apologising to ARMY on the last episode of Bon Voyage 4 … let’s not get into that right now. 

I cannot imagine, but one thing that is for sure is that, going by the Churro-Pic which I think to be real, somewhere between the 8th and 16th of September he potentially added the ARMY logo (unless it was already there), the + + + and the J; the J.

The most infamous J. Because there are so many opinions about it, I think it is only fair that I should share on this post what I think about it as I really do believe it to be an afterthought. Meaning, JK went to get ARMY related tattoos on his hand (even the ARMY logo) just to display his love for ARMY (the crown and the 🥴tho … who knows, right?).

Admittedly, I’m not sure what the “+ + +” are meant to represent but a “J” is a J and this is where it gets tricky as a Jikooker. We have ZERO INFORMATION relating to what happened between September 8 and September 16. This was after jikook was together for JK’s birthday and before the whole “JK scandal”. I have ZERO INFORMATION but I do believe MY PERSONAL OPINION that something happened to make him go and add the J (and all the other hand tattoos). Following are my 3 POSSIBLE theories:

He had it all planned from the very beginning, even before getting the ARMY tattoo,  but was still hesitant on whether to have such a statement on his hand, but then decided to go ahead with it so went back to get that J. (I feel this to be highly unlikely, but who knows right?).

He wanted to add a J meaning Jungkook and when the tattoo artist asked “where would you like it?” He looked at his hand and realised, to his amusement and probably joy,  that adding it above the M, would actually make “JM” and went with it (this is very likely, but who knows right?) because he obviously was okay for it to be perceived as so. Otherwise, I’m pretty sure he would have found another location for that J  it’s not that hard. 

A mix of 1 & 2. After the ARMY tattoo, he might have eventually decided that he did want a Jimin tattoo and realised how perfectly that M was placed; almost like fate …😬 let’s not forget the seriousness with which he makes sure not to have any ring between J and M (this is the theory I personally believe, but who knows right?).

Now we don’t know the reason/s and meaning of his hand tattoos, but through the good and bad times that JK experienced during his well deserved break from August 11 to September 16, 2019, when looking at his hand, and when I say looking, I mean at first glance, I mean right in your face, I mean you don’t even have to second guess even among all the other symbols; the letters read: ARMY across. JM down. FIGHT ME.

I could go on talking about the progression of all his Tattoos up to June 18, 2022 (which is when POLYC posted the finished Tattoo reveal), but that would make this post 1300 pages long, so I’ll some space here —> [  ] just in case I do another post about the progression, or please let me know if you’d like me to do it. For now, let fast forward 3 years into 2022, so that I can finally answer the ASK 🥴. 

Now, I cannot tell you what the eye might have meant and what the time on the clock means, whereas it is a bit easier to speculate on word-tattoo, speculating on drawing-tattoo is like playing the lottery: it could literally mean ANYTHING depending on the person who got them. It would be a bit easier if JK had said even one thing about his art but it is safe to say that they are things that somehow relate to his life and things he believes in or had believed and not anymore? If I had to make an educated guess however:

EYE: Just by googling you will find this definition about the possible meaning of an eye tattoos - Depending on your chosen design, a tattoo of an eye can mean many things. There are several popular ocular pieces, including the Eye of Horus and the Third Eye. That said, in general, the eye is commonly associated with protection, guidance, knowledge, and clarity. - (from the FAQs of this site → https://www.thetrendspotter.net/eye-tattoos/). 

So he has now changed the eye into Bullet Proof. We all know the meaning of that for JK and all members in particular. In general, something bulletproof, is invincible, free from harm, so in a way a sort of protection as well. But once again … who knows right?.

CLOCK: Just by googling you will find this definition about the possible meaning of an clock tattoos  - x Generally speaking, a clock tattoo might symbolize a range of meanings from simply time to life and death, mortality, existence, infinity, endless love, stability, and structure, or referencing a specific special moment in one's life.  (from this site → https://customtattoodesign.ca/tattoo-meanings/clock-tattoo-meanings#:~:text=Generally%20speaking%2C%20a%20clock%20tattoo,special%20moment%20in%20one's%20life. )

My brother made me draw the design for his clock tattoo which he wanted to have on his shoulder. He wanted the 12, 3, 6, and 9 to be substituted with our names initials (myself, him, mom and dad) as we just so happen to have the same initial letter the devil works hard, but my parents worked harder 🙃🙃, and then he wanted the hands of time to indicated the time he was born. So I am very inclined to think that perhaps it was a special moment in his life, even his time of birth but, unless he tells us, we would never know.  

One thing I will say is that, he seems to have added a hand of time in the new version of the time, so he seems to have changed the time. In the original version it seems to be 3 o’clock, but in the new version it seems to be indeed 3:24. It could be intentional, it could be random, thought would feel weird for it to be random, in my opinion, but once again … who knows right?. 

Aaaand last but not least here is my theory with regards to Polyc_sj arm-signature-tattoo.

As we all know all members have gotten their Friendship-7 tattoo from him as shown by the signatures of the members in his studio, and even though I don’t know why Tae didn’t sign, Polyc confirmed on a live he did on the October 23, 2022 that he did indeed give Tae his tattoo, but we do not know the location they also asked about the location of Suga’s and he said it was a secret 🥴🥴🥴. I would have linked an english translation but all I could find were ones of bitter Capulets so yeah … no.

But here is a link to the tweet I put in the image, google translate is “okay” in this instance: https://twitter.com/hangbokmanhaeu/status/1584054029713539073

So when it comes to signatures, if it were just about having their signatures except for Tae from what we’ve seen he has them all. So my opinion is that those are the dates when both JK and JM came to do an actual piece, so: JK February 25 (2.25) & JM April 22 (4.22). February 28, 2022 will be the last time we would see Jk wearing something akin to a short sleeve, before June 18, 2022, which is why I believe that February 25 is the day JK went in to start working on his sleeve (and of course we don’t really know when the videos were taken but it after this, I couldn’t find any other T-Shirt JK pics before June).

Actually the only other one was when JayPark posted with JK, on April 19, 2022 but that was with his old tattoos, which also bring forth another point. Tattoos are made to be seen. They are personal, they are significant but also you have them on your skin because in most cases is like wearing your heart on your sleeves. So I do believe that JK kept them hidden until they were ready to tell us whatever it is he wanted the world to know, which in this case was June 18, 2022. 

And JM? Well well well. Differently from JK we haven’t seen the rest of the crescent moons yet, even though he did tell us he would show us at some point, but my believe is that Polyc might have been the one to finish the rest of the moons, which is a weird thought because he has a very different style and I am not sure how that makes sense but what I have to go on is the following:

March 13, 2022 - Permission To Dance on Stage  in SEOUL, we see JM’ new tattoos.

June 2, 2022 - Incheon Airport (returning from the USA), we spot that JM seems to have even more tattoos under the crescent moon. 

Now, we know BTS left for the USA March 28, 2022 for PTD in LV IN April where he was still pretty clothed when it came to his back. They then came back April 19, 2022 and stayed in SK until May 29, 2022 when they left to go see president Biden. The signature says 4.25, which is why I believe he might have had Polyc finish the moons on April 25, 2022, after Las Vegas, before DC. However until we see the whole tattoo it is just what it is: my speculation. 

Obviously I don’t know the relationship Polyc have with JK and JM, but him having made an actual piece on them and wanting to have a signature from two members of BTS that also seem to have a great appreciation for tattoos, seems to be plausible. In the same way that JK has POLYC tattooed on himself, probably thinking of him as the person who, as he said, saved his arm. 

But maybe there is more to the story, and if so, how are we supposed to know if the people involved don’t tell us? What I actually do think you should be asking yourself is, if Polyc really did finish JM’s crescent moon tattoos, does JM also have a POLYC signature on his back? … who knows right?.

Always respectfully yours 💜,

Marengo.

[BTS 10th] Secrets of BTS' friendship tattoo revealed  

https://youtu.be/gle-K_05NZE

Entrevista a   polyc_sj sobre los tatuajes de la amistad de bts 7 y hablo de jimin y jungkook

Te has vuelto bastante popular gracias al tatuaje de amistad de BTS, escuché que Jungkook visitó tu tienda primero.  

“Si, primero vino por una consulta.”  

¿Como fue discutir/consultar con Jungkook?

“ Primero que nada, estaba muy honrado/fue un gran honor, prometí dar lo mejor de mi.”  

“El tatuaje existente de Jungkook tardó alrededor de 5 meses en terminarse pero a medida que hablábamos él seguía mencionando los tatuajes de amistad.”  

Hay un tatuaje de Polyc en el cuerpo de Jungkook ¿Como empezó eso?

“Un día, JungKook miró mi obra de arte y me preguntó si podía poner una firma en el trabajo, al igual que las firmas en las pinturas.  Dijo que eso también era una obra de arte, y así sucedió todo. "

[ffjj5]

I know what this looks like and I need Polyc to tell me I'm not delusional

Is that JM for Jimin and JK for Jungkook?

Did they write it themselves and he tattooed them on his arm?

Are the dates when they got their first tattoos with him? Or is it linked to the sun and moon tattoos? ( I don't know if the dates work, I can't work that out right now I am typing this at work and my brain is fried)

So. Many. Questions. I. Need. To. Know. More.

We are just dealing with the Memories stuff and now this.

💜💛🌈

[lokisasylum]

Umm....

A lot of shippers are hyping this for obvious reasons but like... I don't even know how to feel about it?

This is PolyC by the way, the tattoo artist who did jikook's recent tattoos it seems (the same one that's been posting about them since before Hobi's listening party when jikook were spotted wearing those bracelets that they bought from his shop in support from his work).

And I get JK tattooed his name on his arm...

But like is this normal? Am I missing something that might've stayed lost in translation?

It says 4.22 and 2.25 So 22nd of April (JM) and 25th of February (JK)?

Are these the dates they had their tattoos done? Has he done this for other customers?

Is the guy clout chasing???? 'Cause there is NO way he doesn't know how fans are taking this by now, what with all the jikook fanbases he's shared posts from.

[jmdbjk]

So I did a thing...

Polyc recreated some of his small tattoos into temporary tattoo sheets, 7 sheets in a set, and offered them for sale.

[photo: @polyc_sj on Instagram]

I followed the instructions and ordered a set.

I never received them, so since I had to prepay (not inexpensive with shipping) I followed up by emailing him.

And now I'm in a email conversation with Polyc and IT. IS. SURREAL I tell you.

He told me he recalls sending them. I love him. THIS GUY HAS HANDLED JK'S ARM!! HE'S TATTOOED MOONS ON JIMIN'S BACK!!! HE'S TATTOOED LIL 7'S ON ALL OF THEM!! AND HE REMEMBERS SENDING ME MY ORDER!! I was in his brain for five seconds!!! I'M SOMEBODY!!!!!!!!!!

It's surreal. And cool.

Anyway... just wanted to share.

EDIT: He says he's sending them out again.

Polyc interview with Korea now for BTS 10th anniversary

I love just how much love and respect Polyc has for the members.

He is especially close with JM and JK, something we knew already, given their names are tattooed on his body. But it was interesting to hear him talk about the conversations he's had with them.

We had confirmation that JK and JM were the ones to initiate the tattoos... JM said they will be the ones to set things up...

I mean, we already guessed this was the case, but this is clear confirmation.

And JM comforting the others having their tattoos done for the first time...

Jikook have the Most Dance Chemistry Bar None

I’ll admit, I do pick my battles sometimes on social media. And one of those battles that I will always die on is that Jikook chemistry on stage dancing is UNMATCHED not just in BTS btw but the entire industry. No one does it like they do. There is a mildly harmless y/n Jimin and JHope biased account that I follow. I say she’s a y/n because I think she has a crush on Jimin and thinks he’s bf material (she’s not wrong) but she doesn’t do or say anything overtly weird. Ya’ll know y/n’s are right up there with tkk for me. She makes mostly cute edits of Jimin. But she just lost me and I couldn’t scroll past it without engaging. She posted a kind of suggestive partner dance between two dancers with intricate choreo and claimed that this would be perfect for JiHope and that their chemistry is unmatched. Now, J-Hope is an EXCELLENT dancer. He’s one of the main dancers of BTS for a reason. His technique level is insane and he is a powerhouse on stage. But his chemistry with Jimin unmatched?? Really?? If his chemistry with Jimin dancing is so palpable why didn’t he lift Jimin in the pas de deux for MMA 2020 Black Swan? Tell me, I’m waiting. If his chemistry with J-Hope is unmatched then why haven’t they done duo stages like Black and White? Why didn’t he do the Own It choreo with Jimin? I think this girl is an aspiring dancer or something, and while we love that and we love having biases, sometimes you have to be subjective. JiHope doesn’t even hold a candle to the level of Jikook when it comes to dancing on stage. I don’t have to take dance lessons to know that. I cited my sources with no response other than agree to disagree. I can’t help but feel like this is another instance of Jikookphobia and downplaying their chemistry. I’ll leave you with this masterpiece to ponder. Oh and keep in mind that chemistry aside, Jungkook was the ONLY member that could technically do this lift. Oh and fun side note, it’s official that I will be getting a tattoo on my trip to Korea this summer done by none other than PolyC and it may be inspired by a certain event that happened during this stage. 🤭 Sorry, couldn’t help but share because I’m so excited. And if you are one of those that wants to act like getting a tattoo by PolyC is an invasion of privacy, then drink some water, touch some grass, and grow up. I’ll gladly block you.
