After 3D and the alleged video of Jungkook and his girlfriend I truly have realized how nasty some of this fan base is when one of the members isnāt fitting into the idea ppl have constructed for them.
This is your friendly reminder that you DONāT know Jungkook. You donāt know his sexuality you donāt know what heās like in person you donāt know his relationship status. We only see what weāre given and whether you want to accept it or not what weāre given is a partially constructed image. Iāve seen so much screaming and whining about how 3D and seven are too āstraightā or sexual for him and arenāt who he is and are ruining his image.
Like?? He has literally said in his own words he HIMSELF is trying to move away from the cute maknae image and be taken more seriously as a mature adult. Why are yāall acting like he canāt have multiple aspects to his identity as a person and an artist? Singing about women doesnāt make him a bad person or suddenly a completely different Jungkook. But some of you are delusional and put so much stake in him being in a relationship with one of his bandmates that you canāt even be happy for him if his music has pronouns that you donāt like. At that point you donāt support him you support the idea of him youāve created in your head thatās attached to a fantasy. Heās not āqueer batingā when heās touchy with Jimin or Taehyung, he loves them. Him constantly bringing up Jimin means theyāre close of course but it never necessarily meant it was romantic. Itās such an insult to their friendships to degrade Jungkook like that and act like those boys donāt love each other with their entire heart. They mean everything to each other and you canāt even find joy in that because itās not how you envisioned the lives of people you donāt KNOW????
Iād also like to add that even if he is bi or has had relationships with men, etc. (not saying that he has just a hypothetical), using female pronouns doesnāt negate that??? He is a KOREAN artist, he cannot just suddenly start singing about men and not experience cultural backlash. Why would he want to put himself in that position during the peak of his solo career? He didnāt write these songs either so if they were handed to him with female pronouns what reason would he have to change it? I beg for some ppl to just use the tiniest bit of logic before speaking because some of yāall are grown ADULTS that are throwing full on fits and it is so embarrassing to witness. You are entitled to your opinion on his music and if you donāt like it thatās okay! But dragging his personal character into it is so gross and delusional, especially when itās revolving around hearsay.
At the end of the day if Jungkook is happy and has not OBJECTIVELY done anything bad then you should be happy for him too! Iām so serious when I say some ppl in this fan base need to transfer this energy into BLs or something that doesnāt involve real people. He has expressed how he is tired of being infantilized, this man is 26 years old, and you think heās being ācorruptedā somehow. Jungkook is not your queer icon or your little baby or the raunchy bad boy, heās just Jungkook the individual. There have been plenty of valid criticisms I have heard regarding 3D but all this nonsense is not apart of it. If you donāt like him as he is then I sincerely hope you do leave because no one deserves fans like that, especially not someone like Jungkook who dedicates his time to showing how much he truly loves and appreciates army.
