I know it’s easy to keep stereotyping Yoongi as cold/lazy/cut off kind of person but sometimes i think it gets to a point where it’s wrong and hurtful in the fandom. And so here’s a list of reasons Min Yoongi is a warm, hard working individual with a personality that is multi-faceted and beautiful.
was a member of the student council when he was in school and was always helping people who approached him and writing them encouraging messages, contrary to popular ‘bad boy’ image belief.
works into late hours of the night, even goes without sleeping when he’s concentrating on composing a new song/lyrics and spends hours on end in the studio
on that note, it is said he recorded the way he said ‘bulteorune’ about 200 times before he was satisfied with how it sounded
despite not being the lead dancer, is almost never criticized for his dance skills because he clearly works hard on it, whether or not he’s the best
again, a side note that he spent his birthday with hoseok practicing dance that hoseok taught him
his stage presence is full of energy and he even kneeled down and bowed for a good minute of stage when he knew his parents were in the crowd, and otherwise also displays emotions on stage, including crying
gets shy and touched when members throw him a surprise birthday party
extremely considerate of what fans think/feel, unlike a lot of other idols. he’s responsible enough to know the effect his words have on fans and therefore constantly promotes a healthy body image, saying he doesn’t have ideal an outfit/weight/height/personality type
that time he spent his own money to buy personal gifts/write different messages for 300+ fans on his birthday, and then did it again the next year too
branching off to the time when he got asked on a radio interview what he’d do with the royalties of the songs he produced (jump/tomorrow) and he replied that he’d take the band and stuff out for lunch with his own money
that time he bought all the kids in bts ice cream without asking and won them toys in AHL and they were so happy about it
that time hoseok wasn’t eating because he lost and yoongi said he couldn’t eat if his dongsaegs weren’t eating and that he was full just watching him eat, giving him his share of food
doesn’t care that he’s not a good singer and sings loudly and shamelessly when he’s in the mood
the new years day yoongi didn’t spend with own family just because hoseok was lonely in the dorms
that one time jungkook jumped on yoongi and hugged him and yoongi looked like he might just die from happiness
when he laughs when something is too funny and no noise comes out and he claps around like a seal and it’s so so adorable
said he likes smart girls who he could have long conversations with/hear her stories and she was good with computers
actually gets super flattered and smug when people find his sass funny
that time they were on running man and had to run for boxes and ran so fast he was far ahead of even jungkook
that time namjoon was supposed to perform on stage and yoongi was deadpan the whole performance until it was namjoon’s turn, and then he has laughing and singing and screaming and being super supportive
once when the members were just annoying jungkook a little and yoongi sensed jungkook felt a little sad so he wordlessly reached out to him and petted him and said ‘I think he’s adorable’
on that note, always sensing the members discomfort/sadness and being a silent supporter and saying encouraging things to make them feel better
never holds back of compliments. ever.
he is a wonderful, multi-faceted man with emotions other than being ‘dead inside’ and loves the people around him so much and is full of appreciation and support for them and endlessly a source of strength for them.
