#hickeygate

[heartstopperthoughts]

[always-is-always]

Funny thing is that I was thinking about this particular photo, yesterday. @jkjmbtsarmy , since you just shared it, do you know the backstory on the photo?

It looks to be an airport arrival or departure photo…

I have only seen it once before, in my 4+ years as ARMY, and I hadn’t seen it before 2023.

Why am I curious about it? Well, does anyone think that the bandana conveniently covering JK’s neck is just a little unusual? Considering it isn’t anything that I have seen him wear in any content, fashion shoot, concert, or anything else. It wasn’t like it was a part of his go-to accessories, you know…

So, I wonder why I haven’t seen anything written about it? It is obviously pre-hickeygate….

Do any of the longer-term ARMYs have any insight on this?

Since we're going by the logic of Jikook are not seen in public together = they have broken up, then my sister's relationship with her husband, who she has a literal child with, is FAKE, because I never see them in public!!!!!! They don't go out! So fake! Outrageous! How ABSURD it is for a long-term couple to want PRIVACY!!!! How dare my sister go out with me/be seen with me in public and not her boyfriend! How dare she have other people in her life!

How even more FLABBERGASTING that a worldwide famous long-term couple living in a homophobic country want to hang out in a totally safe and private way for them! It doesn't matter that their career could end and they could even be arrested, and it doesn't matter that photos of them on white day were leaked, exposing them in an intimate moment, and it doesn't matter that their names were on Dispatch's list, together with other couples that admitted they were together.

HOW DARE Jungkook and Jimin not make out in front of the cameras for us???? How dare Jungkook and Jimin try to protect their privacy after so many leaked pictures and all the stalking?

That's how stupid y'all wishy washy Jikookers and taekookers sound. Babes do you REALLY think Jungkook and Jimin always tell us truth? Do you really think they tell us EVERYTHING that goes on in their lives?

Shouldn't y'all take Taennie as an example? They were going out for God knows how long and they were NEVER spotted. Sure, leaked pictures here and there, which Jikook also have, but they've never seen in public together, either.

It's time y'all use the brains god gave you. Don't be scared of it, yeah? USE IT.

Do you really think they tell us EVERYTHING?

I wanna talk about this. This goes out to the holier than though Jikookers out there who judge us other Jikookers who still believe that the JM on JK's hand is for Jimin.

Anon I agree with you 1013%. Please allow me to hijack your post an address this topic.

Okay so JK went live and said the J stands for Jungkook. Right. I ended up in report pages for saying this on twitter but I will say it again. How many people do you know that tattoo their own names on themselves? No seriously. How many? I said even the most narcissistic person wouldn't do this and I got blocked and reported. But it's true. JK is not a narcissist, far from it even. He has a big heart and loves those around him and loves us Army even when we don't deserve it. That man did not tattoo his name on himself. That's point number 1.

Point 2. Who tf calls him J? He calls himself JK, members call him JK. Everyone calls him JK. The only member we've heard tell us to call him J was Jhope and I think that was "Jay"

Point 3 and what I wanna talk about. No, I'm not calling JK a liar. I am calling him an omiter. He ommited the truth. The point of him explaining the tattoos I believe was to debunk the V/A. Which he did, thank God. But I digress.

Being a Jikooker is based on deducing and analysing. Listening to them, watching them and concluding they're together. They have never outright told us. Alright?

Jimin said, he bit JK.

Jikookers said it was a hickey. Because its right by the mole. Because it didn't fade. Because there were no teeth marks. Okay. Fine. But why do we believe the J stands for Jungkook, but we won't believe when Jimin said he bit JK and no shenanigans were involved?

Jungkook said he goes to Jimin's hotel room because its closer.

Jikookers said it was a lie. He goes because he wants to spend time with Jimin. And he doesn't just sit there for hours and do nothing. He was lying. So why do we believe the J stands for Jungkook, but we won't believe he went to Jimin's room out of convenience?

Jungkook said Jimin wasn't the main model of GCF.

Jikookers said that can't possibly be true because JK highlights Jimin in all the videos and Jimin always gets the most screentime. Okay. So why do we believe the J stands for Jungkook, but we won't believe when he said Jimin wasn't his main model?

JK said he always sleeps in Jihope's room because his bed is uncomfortable.

Jikookers said nah, JK just likes sleeping with Jimin. JK sleeps in that room because he's dating Jimin. They had enough money to get JK a better mattress, so that was clearly just an excuse. So why do we believe the J is for Jungkook, but we didn't believe when he said his own bed was uncomfortable?

JK said he's always recording Jimin because Jimin is always around

Jikookers said that wasn't true because anytime JK has a camera, more often than not he's pointing it at Jimin. Even when sometimes Jimin doesn't notice. So clearly JK was lying. Right? So why do we believe the J is for Jungkook, but we didn't believe JK's reason for why he's always filming Jimin?

Have i made my point yet???

"The J stands for Jungkook, JK said so."

Be quiet.

If you believe that then you might as well stop believing in Jikook rn because these mofos have never told us they were gay for eo. We concluded that after mountains of suspicious moments and unexplainable sexual tension. We concluded. They didn't tell us.

And if you wanna still believe in Jikook then get off your fucking high horse where you nitpick what to buy and judge those of us who wanna believe in the JM tattoo or Jikook numbers or Jikook dropping eo off at the airport. There are clearly levels of Jikookery but everyone needs to stay in their lane and stop judging. You just come off looking like a fucking hypocrite. We don't all have to think or see things the same way.

The JM stands for Jimin. Otherwise he would have left his tattoos like this.

Rant over. I'm done. But I needed to get that off my chest. Anyway, Jikook is real. Amen.

Support Jikook for clear skin

Sabine: Ahsoka, we have a problem

Ahsoka: We have a lot of problems, what else is new

Sabine: This might be a big problem

Ahsoka: What did you do?

Sabine:

Ahsoka: Sabine what did you do?

Sabine: So you know how Ezra and I were here for a couple of nights by ourselves?

Ahsoka: Yeah?

Sabine: so during that time Ezra and I were . . . Intimate

Ahsoka: Please tell me this isn't going where I think it is

Sabine: I'm pregnant

Ahsoka: *deep sigh*

I once had a daydream about hickeygate happening and it went like this: George drops a tiktok with an obvious red spot at the side of his neck and the fandom is split between srs hickeytruthers, joking hickeytruthers and golos white knighting him either saying that speculating about him having a hickey and/or speculating about who could have given it to him is invasive etc etc but in their privs the dranti golos secretely theorize and hope about the existance of GirlfriendNotFound. After two days of discourse, spaces, art and fanfics and absolute silence from the dteam, George streams w facecam and he reads chat asking about the spot/hickey and he's like "Oh this? This is a mosquito bite." and he laughs at us for a minute before pulling his shirt collar down and revealing a big purple mark by his collarbone and he goes "THIS is a hickey" and just continues the stream as normal. Later that day Dream tweets out the mosquito emoji from his priv and they go MIA for 5 days.

THE WAAAAY MY MOUTH JUST KEPT OPENING WIDER AND WIDER BITCH I DAMN NEAR SCREAMED

Happy two years to Hickeygate. Jikook unbothered idgaf Busan princes that they are, both posted when HICKEY was trending. Very appropriate if you ask any Jikooker. So nice to have these actual, real, factual, tangible moments to celebrate! 🐥💛🐰

[ffjj5]

Another day and another Jikook anniversary.

This time it's Happy 1st anniversary to hickeygate.

Having drinks together and getting a little drunk, JK carries Jimin bridal style and spins Jimin until he is dizzy and asks to be put down, but JK refuses so Jimin 'bites' him ( so the story goes ). 😉

The next day at rehearsals JK strolls in with his hickey proudly on display.

Take a chunk of this..

And a pinch of this..

And the result is this...

For me this is one of, if not THE loudest moments, the day they said "Today we will be proudly and loudly queer"..let me explain why I think that:

It didn't have to be spoken about on camera, a bit of make up on it and nothing said and we would have been none the wiser. But look at how happy they both are talking about it 😃.

This was in no way fanservice. It happened in the privacy of their home and was an intimate moment between just the two of them.

No one other than Jimin or JK were allowed to touch it, Jimin had his hands all over it but when Jin gets close JK pulls away. Again when JK is talking about it on camera he is rubbing it like it is his precious.

It cannot be explained away as platonic bro high jinx, it is an intimate, sexual act between two consenting adults in a relationship.

The discussion and footage made it into official content where it was proudly discussed TWICE on camera. And I am pretty damn sure they gave the okay for it to be included in the final edit.

Think about that for a second... They know we aren't stupid and would know damn well that was no bite. A playful bite can lead to a hickey and a hickey can lead too...🤐

Of course they weren't going to say it was a hickey, they left us to fill in the blanks. They were making a statement. Their actions and well chosen words are the only way they can communicate to us what they mean to each other.

This is not the first time either has turned up on camera with a hickey but those times they have attempted to conceal it with varying degrees of success. The most successful we never saw but some were spotted by eagle eyed fans...

There is a good reason that JK is a vampire in his photo folio. The man clearly likes a good nibble and suck 😄, and Jimin's mole on his collar bone is a favourite spot , oh and his ear obviously.

Hickey was trending on Twitter and the same day Jimin and JK both posted consecutively. They had to have seen that it was trending when they posted on Twitter. It feels like a real 'yes bitches we did that' response from them. And I applaud them for it.

Stan a couple who get drunk, mess around with bridal carries, spinning and faces snuggled into necks (probably), give hickeys and then rock up to work the next day to brag about it.

💛💜🌈

Besties may we never forget Hickeygate 2023.

[whysojiminimnida]

*merrily skips in*

Handle hair, handle hair, he had handle hair when he showed us the hickey

*merrily skips out*

So he did, Anon Who Just Made Me Giggle Loudly In Public.

I SWEAR THIS NEVER STOOD OUT TO ME UNTIL YOU SKIPPED IN HERE WITH THAT LITTLE TRUTH SKITTLE LIKE "Here taste the hickey rainbow" and WHYYYY did I not tag this LAST AUGUST I don't even know. BUT So he did indeed. Man not only shows up with a whole ass makeout session right there on his neck but he also felt the need to TIE THAT SHIT BACK SO WE HAD A CLEAR SHOT.

Like, it probably would have been noticeable even with the Dynamite-perm and heaven only knows we do love a long-haired pretty Koo but DAMN, sir,

He does seem rather proud of himself. And he's not the only one *ahemjiminahem* Thank you for the education, nice skipping anon! I'M BACK BITCHES

This is basically Nick Nelson when he sees Charlie’s hickey

Jimin’s Letter, a compilation mv

On a call with my Bestie tonight, the conversation took a turn to BTS, their “7″ tattoos, and.... Jimin & Jungkook of course.  It began as she asked me about the tattoos, as I had texted her the link to Jiminie’s video “Dear. Army.”, yesterday.  

She knows I’m ARMY, and she’s supportive, but it’s not really her thing.  I send her links to videos when they drop new music, and she’s sweet enough to watch them and listen to my enthusiasm.  (She’s in CO and I’m in NC, so all our convos are by phone.) lol... Bless her patient heart.  

After we hung up I wound up on YouTube looking through the lyric videos for “Letter”, and wound up watching several compliations while I was at it.  In my conversation with my Bestie I had referenced the long history between Jimin and Jungkook, and thought that a short compliation video would actually be cool to send her as she’d understand more.  

Here’s one of my favorites.  It includes a couple of clips of Kookie, from vlives this year that are perfect for the video.  Love that!  It’s too good not to share.... 💜

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again.  I’m grateful for the community we have, here on this platform.  I love being able to share the love for BTS, here with all of you! 🥰💜💜💜😘

jkkrs doing research 😭😭

It will always amuse me when a Jikooker blocks me because, what did I do? 🤭🤭🤭

Anyhu, if you are a sexually active adult, or if you have ever had anyone suck on your neck then you know what a hickey is. Jimin called it a bite because of course he did. But if you know the difference then you know Jimin did not bite JK's neck. He sucked on it. And he didn't just suck on it. He was there for a while; Long enough to leave a mark.

Like, that's it. That's literally what happened. You only get a hickey from a make out session. Bites have teeth marks and JK probably walks around with those on his butt. But this particular one was no bite.

There is many Jikook moments out there that can be debunked or played off as bros doing their thing. No homo 🙌🏽

But this right here, this ain't one of them fam. Love to break it to ya

[stormblessed95]

Since there's a hickeygate talk is going on I'll slide in to say till this day i always always wonder what exactly lead them to that moment. I mean we know jm bite jk beacuse jk wouldn't let him down but my main question is why was a jk even holding a jm bridal style ? What made jk do that? What kind of conversation they were having? Or jungkook just saw a cute jimin (we all know how cute jm get's when he's drunk and how even a sober jungkook has hard time not cooing over his jiminie hyung) and couldn't help himself and just picked him up? I understand if jk is carrying jm bridal style when there's people around you cause it somehow makes you feel you're safe nd not doing anything sus but doens't it get intimated when you're alone? Like this is literally a scene from drama Cause two main characters are having a nice drink and suddenly one of them pick up the other bridal style (I'm sure they were giggling like crazy) and the other one asks the 1st one to let him go but the one carrying simply doens't want to (does jk not get tired? like imagine not wanting to let someone down but just hold them and spin around and my boy jm i know he has a strength kinl lol) let go so the other one decides the best way to make it happen is bite on the one who's carry and not just here or there but exactly on the neck? Like he couldn't have bite jk's shoulder? Couldn't have hit jk on the chest? Couldn't have pinched him somewhere? Nah my guy said that's my man and i can do whatever i want so he simply bite on down on his neck. It's a hicky or bite or whatever people prefers to call it is another conversation but for how long he was biting jks neck (for the people who don't wanna belive he sucked who thinks jm would bite jk that hard to leave a mark 🙄) that he left mark there for atleast 2-3 days?? Like ppl really think jm is a monster or something? Like if i bite myself hard enough which will pain me enough to let go of something it still isn't leave a mark that will last for 2-3 days (we saw the next 2 days practice nd jk having the mark there the one where they told us being the 1st day after the"bite" and the next day where jk is wearing that black tea and loose pants which was a LOOK of jk that everyone was gagging over). If i bite myself hard enough it still won't leave a mark which can't disappear after some min or hrs but people surely do think it's a bite mark.

Bite mark or hicky it's still intimate to go Someone that kind of mark on their neck. It's like we kiss we fk but we nothing just frnds with these two men.

Anyways I'm still curious what caused jk to suddenly bridal carry jm and for jm to not think of anything else but bite.

The intimacy!! And what do you mean what CAUSED JK to just suddenly bridal carry Jimin?? Thats just what they DO lmao to the point where Jimin so much as looks like he might want to be carried or looks somewhat carriable or just bends a certain way where he would be easy to pick up.... Jungkooks muscle memory kicks in and he just automatically scoops him up 🤣🤣

This TikTok doesn't *super* relate, but also sorta does and makes me cackle with laughter every time😂

[akookminsupporter]

Just for fun… If you could be a fly on the wall for just one jikook moment, so that you’d get the full picture of what was going on, what would that moment be?

hickeygate. It's the first one that came to my mind ajajajajaj

[ugh-yoongi]

Just now realized how it’s about to be almost a whole year when Namjoon showed up on live with a hickey right after Valentine’s Day 😂😭💀💀

omg the hickeyversary is coming up????!

we will have to come up with a way to commemorate this we cannot let it go uncelebrated

[lesbian-gnf-archive]

I refuse to get TikTok, so I'm already preparing for that rush of fear I'm going to get when one of the updates account posts "Stickboy69 posted a new TikTok: "getting my new years kiss""

I feel it in my bones that he's going to stitch his old new years TikTok with him celebrating with Dream and it will be devastating.
