anyway, the reason why I love yoon/kook is really something that I can’t explain well with words? i remember my friend asking me in real life once why i liked the pairing, since she hadn’t ever even considered it before (she was a v/kook gal), and honestly? i couldn’t even explain it properly to her. because how do you exactly describe the feeling that two people can give you in just a few words? i couldn’t tell her that they were together all the time or openly touched each other or told each other that they loved each other a lot on camera, because it wasn’t true. sure, there are pairings out there that are really open with their skinship and genuinely mean it, but the dynamic between yoongi and jungkook just isn’t like that. they’re the type of pairing that look at each other softly when they think the cameras aren’t on them, or touch hands without looking at each other. they’re the type that don’t seem like they would get along well in theory, both being quiet and introverted, or serious unless given a reason to be otherwise, and yet they still do. they click so well, and always sync up perfectly with each other, whether it be in terms of interests, hobbies, habits or fashion style, and frankly it’s a little scary how perfectly they match. they’re both unexpectedly playful with each other as well, like in the 360 VR cam interview, where they can be seen pulling at each other playfully, or basically anytime jungkook thinks it’s a good idea to slap yoongi’s butt for no reason. you can tell that yoongi has a really soft soft for jungkook as well, by the way he always praises him and encourages him, and never for a second lets him doubt himself. you can see this in the way he always slings one hand over the younger’s neck, and in the way he gently squeezes, as if wanting to provide some kind of reassurance. you can see this vice versa in the way jungkook isn’t afraid to annoy yoongi, or do something silly with/to him, as if to say ‘hey, i trust you, and i trust the fact that you won’t get angry at me because you love me’. you can also see it in the way jungkook hangs onto every word yoongi says, and laughs with pure unadulterated joy whenever yoongi makes a joke, even if no one else finds it funny, because to jungkook, yoongi is the funniest person in the world. you can also see it in the way he always finds some way to put his arm around yoongi’s shoulder, even if it’s done unnaturally, because he wants to let his hyung know that he’s there. and of course, i always love how mischievous these two are together, even if no one can really tell. you can see this at times like when they both sprayed jimin with waterguns, or when jungkook kept piping up and interrupting yoongi with demands of lamb skewers during that one run era interview. or especially that time when yoongi had the nerve to palm jungkook’s crotch in plain view of the camera, and act as if nothing had happened. or even when jungkook kabedonned yoongi at the bbmas, which people only eventually found out about through grainy fancams. anyway, i know that this got really long (i’m sorry, i just have a lot to say ;;;), but i just love how much they care for each other and love each other, even if it’s only through soft touches and intimate moments behind the camera, and the way they can openly flirt with each other and everyone would be none the wiser, because they don’t seem the type to be able to match well with each other, when they know they do. and i think that’s all i have to say.
as for the last part, it’s too hard for me to choose, but i definitely think one of my favourite moments (well i’m not even sure if it counts as a moment) is the vlive they took in bv s1. i really liked the quiet and peaceful atmosphere that they had, and the way they were able to just relax in each others’ presence without fear of interruption, or without being forced to by some external force (like a game punishment…although i’m not going to lie, those are my guilty pleasure too). i liked the way they were able to laugh freely with each other, and the way jungkook felt comfortable enough to softly rest his chin on yoongi’s shoulder and stare at him for a solid couple seconds, as if there were no one else in the world. it just struck me as something really intimate, and that’s definitely one of the reasons why i like this pairing as much as i do. anyway, thanks for reading this rambly post (if you haven’t already fallen asleep by the end of it), and thank you for holding this giveaway…i hope i was able to convey everything well ;;;;
