There is something different about Park Jimin. And I'm talking about the individual, about him as a person in general. There is something different about him. And with today's or yesterday's Vlive I confirmed it.
For some time now I have noticed a serenity and a vulnerability in Jimin. In his demeanour but we hadn't seen so many moments in real-time to confirm it. Now I have confirmed it. There is something different about him. Something beautiful. Jimin is a person of many shades. He is both complex and simple at the same time. I have said it several times in the past but he looks different. More him.
I also confirmed today that I could listen to Jimin talk for hours. The way he talks is soothing, he seems to lull you with his voice. Although I didn't understand what his voice was saying... It calmed me down. Such is the power of Park Jimin.
Jimin radiates calmness. Warmth. It's amazing what he can transmit through a screen. Those who meet him in person are lucky.
I will never tire of saying it, Jimin is a special being. Rare. Hard to find. I feel lucky to call myself his fan.
Now about JiKook. KookMin. Jimin and Jungkook...
I honestly don't think I can watch that Vlive again, or at least not the part with Jungkook in it. God, I was grinning like a fool, giggling like Jimin! And with that feeling that I wasn't supposed to watch. This vlive joins Jungkook's Vlive in New Jersey in my folder of JiKook videos that I can't watch again.
There is something different about them. There is something different about Jimin but also Jungkook. I know we all say they look more domestic every day but I think they look more confident, secure but most of all calm every day.
I can't shake this feeling that something happened or something changed. And honestly, I don't care if I'm right or wrong, I'm happy because they seem to be. They definitely deserve it.
Jimin seemed timid maybe? And the fact that he decided to call Jungkook says a lot. They are each other's comfort, I think that was more than clear. Before the call, Jimin was checking his phone and I assume he was reading a message from Jungkook because his face... mate... his face. The way he spoke to Jungkook. The tone of voice he used. God, I'm not strong enough!
The fact that Jimin just had to tell Jungkook to go to him. To join his Vlive and the fact that Jungkook did it right away says it all. It said it all. It was mere minutes between the call and Jungkook's arrival. Without knocking. Knowing the password to enter the studio, is important to note.
JIMIN WILL ALWAYS BE THERE FOR JUNGKOOK AND JUNGKOOK WILL ALWAYS BE THERE FOR JIMIN.
The rest is... K-jikookers have already said it all. They have already explained everything.
I don't know what kind of relationship the two of them have, I just know that it's special and it's beautiful to watch.
Thank you, Jimin for sharing a bit of your happiness with us. For showing us once again.
Asked this elsewhere but really curious to get your take. I wonder if I can get your take on their Butter vlive. Not necessarily about jikook, who seemed in tune with each other as usual, but about JM with the rest of the team. The teasing was relentless in my opinion. Towards the end when they asked him to โturn it off with a cute faceโ was kinda hard to watch and I noticed JK and Suga dropped their heads as well.
Not sure how to say this, but I donโt think thereโs sufficient evidence to think JMโs insistence of asserting jikook in spite of RMโs wishes (speculation based on RMโs reactions to the Dynamite press conference and JM just mentioning JK in interviews lool) has significantly impacted JMโs standing in the group to the point he is somehow dismissed, BUT their dynamics feel a bit off. RMโs description of JM too in the Letโs BTS show was a bit different from in the past where he described JM as a dear friend (odd and significant for JM who is younger) and someone who most understood him. In Letโs BTS he described JM as a good idol who everyone likes... So not bad, just different, especially when the other members didnโt hesitate to be really personal with their compliments of each other. In the Butter MV shooting jikook were mostly in tune with each other but at times (like when they were sitting in a row of chairs with jikook at opposite ends) JM seemed a bit detached from the rest.
JM has always been known to meticulously tend to his personal relationships as he values those very strongly. He has always been very close with the hyungs and you often feel deep respect for him from Hobi, RM, and Suga in particular. Iโm not saying none of that is still there, but it feels like thereโs been a drifting for a few months. I really liked JMโs BE interview with RM but again, a few parts felt off for two people who supposedly understand each other best. Is it weird to think during quarantine jikook remained as close but JMโs relationship with the others has suffered? JK as the maknae would always get dotted on, but with JM... that vlive made me wonder.
I could be reading too much into it, so would like to get other perspectives.
Hi @beautifulpersonpeach ! Thanks for the Ask.
So, I'm going to be completely honest in my answer with you and hope I don't ruffle any feathers along the way.
My impression when I watched the Butter day VLive was just that JM was maybe not his usual chipper self, but he still seemed content. Now, I am not saying something was wrong, it's just that people are complex. We don't stay in one mood consistently all the time, and especially not when we're under lots of stress and have a lot going on for work, which he did! He didn't seem extra bowled over and lively and loud. But, he also didn't look unhappy to me, and he was engaging with the games. I didn't notice that he was teased any more than anyone else. If there is someting in particular I missed, please do let me know.
When he tried to say something to JK about their fasting, he couldn't connect and wasn't heard. It reminded me of the exact thing JM teased JK over during YouQuiz. Talking is awkward, lol. Sometimes you want to say something and with six other people talking, you can't get a word in edge-wise. And sometimes you're not in the mood to be super extroverted so you don't try as hard. JM was so cute when he pouted at the camera like he was in The Office or something. But, I really don't think anything nefarious is going on. JM was taking care of the penalties, and I think he was enjoying handing those out, lol. And I loved when JK looked at him sorting through them and said something like, what are you doing, Jimin-ssi? That was a very married moment. Only JK could get annoyed from across the room. (lololol it was reminiscent of the tape incident)
JM told us in the Rolling Stone interview that he considers himself to be more introverted than some of the other members. Since we can also see he can be very extroverted and likes investing time in friendships, I think he probably vascillates between feeling extroverted and introverted. And maybe he was a little bit more introverted than normal during this VLive, but I don't think he was out of it, or being spurned or scorned by anyone, or even purposefully ignored or maliciously teased. Hobi said turn it off and it sounded like he swore, but he didn't. That's why everyone laughed. My impression was not that JM was hurt by this, but that he misheard it and was taken aback for a split second. (lol, does Hobi swear normally? hehehe)
I thought MiniMoni were being cute together. They spilled the nail polish (oops) and I could only wonder if they got it on the brand new hardwood floor of that shiny new practice room. What I would say, though, is RM was pretty clear in Soop, believing there should be distance between the members to make things easier. I'm paraphrasing, but he said that being too close creates problems. The silence that hung in the air after he said that made me think that not everyone may agree. But, RM is in a hard spot as the leader. He's the liaison between management and the group. So, if you feel like their dynamic has changed, that could be part of the reason why.
This may be controversial, but if JK and JM have a close relationship that skirts the usual boundaries of colleagues, I'm not convinced that RM is the big bad who hates it. Those "poor Joon" videos are mostly exaggerations. Consider the fan sign where JK is wearing a boiler suit and he gets jealous when RM and JM are goofing around. And, this is pretty much the only time I would say he def was jealous of something because he ignored them and both JM and RM acted guilty AF. If RM was the big bad, he wouldn't act like he did something he shouldn't have, and he'd be very opposed to JK showing a negative emotion in front of an audience like that.
I don't think I've ever seen any members being disrespectful to KM, or looking disapproving. Maybe a little uneasy sometimes, but not anything abnormal. Yes, Hobi sometimes pulls them apart (but the last time that happened was what, 2019?), and lately he looks at them like he's staring at kittens. Actually, Tae was the one who boo'd at JM for saying what he looks forward to most is waking up to JK. But, I don't think that was really shade. Tae earned his right to boo in my books. IF there is a committed relationship going on, I can't help but think the days of being yea or nay on it are long gone. Lasting love is something foolish to oppose (remember that for when your friend marries someone you don't like, ps).
Again, I don't see JM having drifted from his hyungs in a way that is negative or worrying. Naturally, as we grow in our adult lives, our relationships change. We become sure of those we want to spend our precious free time with, and those we don't. I won't be confident in making broad statements about 2020 KM until Memories comes out, but if KM did somehow become even closer, I think that's quite natural. But, remember the Run where they were allowed to leave early? They both stayed late to help Tae with the dominoes. They could have not done that, but they both agreed (we saw it) that they should stay and help. So personally, I'm not expecting any dramatic shifts.
Hello ARMY, this is Jimin.
Did you receive your Christmas present well?
This is a song I really wanted to have you all hear, and thankfully an opportunity to make that happen arose so Iโm really really happy.
The reason Iโm visiting you all like this today is because I wanted to tell you a bit about the reason behind me releasing a bright song like this during such troubled times.
Youโll know once you read the lyrics but Iโm singing the emotions I felt from one of my favorite childhood memoriesโme seeing heavy snowfall for the first time.
I think as we grow, we begin to really long for our younger years.
Whether thatโs our current situation or not, Iโve been remembering and wanting to go back to the days when we were immature, untainted by life, naive, pure.
As we have grown older, we have also developed a sense of responsibility, and that sense of responsibility makes our once naive selves mature, and I wonder if it causes us to begin concealing our feelings a little.
However, I think those feelings are still within us so, even though it is childish, how about we express those feelings once in a while?
I thought it would be nice if that โonce in a whileโ was today.
You all are always worthy of and deserve to be loved.
So, instead of describing it as โcringeโ as it so often is, I hope a time comes when we can all enjoy it together, even though it might be a bit embarrassing.
Though this song falls extremely short in comparison to the grandiose intentions with which it was written, it is a song I wrote with one hope in mindโthat you are all happy people. I would like if you all listened to this song and were transported to a time in your memories, for even just a little bit.
