Also can I just say… I literally JUST told my friends this in the gc again because somehow this pattern NEVER fails 😭
Every single time the odds seem “against” Jikook, these two suddenly decide to become even MORE attached, MORE annoying, MORE playful and more “니들이 뭘 할 수 있는데?” coded.
Like at this point it’s not even shipping anymore this is literally advanced behavioral science. Somebody call NASA. Call Harvard. Call that one detective from Criminal Minds because ssibal WHAT is this pattern 😭
People: “Oh noooo maybe they grew distant 😔”
Jikook 0.2 seconds later:
• Standing unnecessarily close
• Giggling like two middle schoolers in love
• Escalating physical contact like they’re trying to unlock Premium Subscription features
• Moving like they share one singular consciousness
• Staring at each other like the rent is due
• If not, somehow our dear Jungkook eventually appears on live at suspicious timing like the final boss of emotional damage control
Because WHY is it ALWAYS like this?!!!
People: “Maybe things changed…”
Jungkook: ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ anyways Jimin-ssi ☺️
LIKE SIR?????? 😭
Not even directly saying anything either because God forbid this man communicates normally.
No no. Instead he arrives with: ✨the vibes✨ ✨the energy✨ ✨the smiling✨ ✨the suspiciously comforting tone✨ ✨the aura of a man that knows exactly why everyone is panicking✨
And suddenly the entire fandom is sitting there like:
“Ah… okay. Nevermind. They’re insane again.”
And the funniest part is that the MORE dramatic people become, the MORE these two seem to activate whatever soulmate rebellion protocol they have going on
Like genuinely their internal conversations must sound like:
Jimin: “They’re being annoying again.”
Jungkook: “Chanae? 🤨” (translation: ARE YOU KIDDING ME?)
Jimin: “Mhm.”
Jungkook: “Bet. Hold my microphone. I’m about to become even more attached to you out of spite.”
Because WHY do they react to discourse by becoming even more unbearable together 😭
The universe throws chaos at them and they respond with: “Damn… anyways wanna go stand thigh-to-thigh and psychologically terrorize people again?”
And Jungkook ESPECIALLY??? Oh that man CANNOT handle bad vibes around Jimin 😭
The SECOND the energy gets weird he starts moving like he was personally appointed by the Ministry of Jimin Protection.
Suddenly he’s live. Suddenly he’s smiling. Suddenly he’s mentioning Jimin-ssi with that fond little voice. Suddenly everyone who was doomposting looks dumb as hell.
It’s genuinely one of the most consistent Jikook patterns ever and every time I notice it again I feel like that conspiracy theory guy connecting red strings on the wall while yelling:
“THE EVIDENCE IS RIGHT THERE!!!”
Anyways… Jikook continuing to become stronger through spite might actually be one of the funniest ongoing plotlines in Bangtan history lol
I was waiting to finally, finally write this post.
Keep Going.
So here I am after the release of AYS Seasons 1 & 2 — especially after Season 2, where people speculated that we might get an OST and that the “Keep Going” phrase in Season 1 was hinting at it. Season 2 released… and there was still no OST in sight.
I almost wrote this post back then itself, but then another theory started floating around — that maybe we’d get subunits in the Arirang album and that’s when “Keep Going” would finally make sense. Never made sense to me but still I waited. Impatiently. And that theory too turned out to be false.
Honestly, from the very beginning — from the moment I saw “Keep Going” appear in the WHO MV followed by AYS Season 1 — I knew it had nothing to do with an OST or a subunit. Still, I thought, okay, let’s wait for official confirmation first.
And now after all this waiting, I can finally say it: Keep Going is Jikook’s private code. A code, just like 11/8 and the yellow-purple color palette they constantly use to hint at each other and their relationship. Since they can’t say things explicitly, they communicate through these little symbols, phrases, parallels, and codes, leaving it to us to connect the dots and see the bigger picture.
First, let’s talk about “Keep Going.” The phrase originally comes from BTS’s song Young Forever. Dream, hope, keep going. The song talks about continuing forward with hope and moving toward your dreams despite the struggles. But years later, the phrase became even more iconic because of Jimin himself. In 2018, during English interviews, he kept saying “Jimin, you nice, keep going.” And it became such a huge meme that the second you hear “keep going,” Jimin is literally the first thing that comes to mind.
Then in 2019, the phrase started appearing in BT21 content specifically connected to Cooky (Jungkook), especially around workout-related posts:
So this phrase that started in a BTS song slowly became something repeatedly highlighted around just two members: Jimin and Jungkook. Like this phrase started becoming associated with them.
And then years later, July 2024 happens. Jimin drops WHO — a song where he’s literally singing about searching for and longing for his forever love. And right when he sings “Who is my heart waiting for?” a billboard with Jungkook’s face (YES!!!) drops alongside the phrase Keep Going and WHO:
That moment sealed the deal, guys! Jimin deserves more acknowledgement and this deserves to be spoken at least once a day if you're a jkkr. Because he literally said "Consequences be damned my bf needs to be shown on the screen with major hints if I can't say it out loud that its Jungkook". Because suddenly Jimin was using a phrase already strongly associated with both him and Jungkook in a song about the love of his life — while directly placing Jungkook's face on the center of it.
And if anyone still somehow had doubts, he made sure to clear it all. By emphasizing it again in AYS Season 1. Double underlined too, mind you:
Honorable mentions:
1) There's that yellow-purple again
2) Interlude: Showtime being 1:18 mins long
That number 11/8 and showtime
3) 11/8 being the launch time for AYS trailer (Showtime indeed)
Major codes checked!
If anyone needs lessons on soft-launching and hard-launching a relationship, it’s genuinely these two, y'all. Jimin and Jungkook! They have been doing this for at least 10 years now, slowly leveling up their hints every single year.
They're in a competition with themselves on how far they can take this leaving us all breathless. Let it be matching jackets on Valentines day, a trip to Disneyland as a birthday gift, love confessions through GCFs, ear suck and I love you signs in public while you know the whole world is watching and recording you, showing off hickeys from your bf in front of the cam letting the world know that you immensely enjoy carrying his marks on your body, the Maison Margela necklace on Silver day highlighting the 11/8 code, romantic getaways named AYS, tattooing your bf's name and flaunting it everywhere knowing that its serving the purpose of a wedding band, using everything in your power to make sure you won't get separated for the mandatory ms, flying across oceans to surprise your bf on his birthday, including only him in your debut album which you consider as your personal diary and feels that its wrong to include others but not him because he's your other half and also the person to whom you're gifting that particular song and the list goes on...
Also Jimin's pattern of supporting his bf's brand:
You nice Keep Going Jikook 💛💜
Sorry but being a jikooker is the best
We are living our best life because jikook simply can never stop being themselves and it's all so wonderful 😭
I wanna handshake Source/God, jikook themselves and all of you for being on this earth right now living this amazing experience 😭
We are so blessed everything is perfect 😭
Have you seen two people more beautiful? I think not!
Aaaah what a time to be alive!!
And for real guys it's only the start of this tour 😭 if this is like this the whole tour?? Oh my god can we take such levels of happiness??
I AM SCARED 🤣🤣
Anyway it's so amazing
THANK YOU JIKOOK FOR ALL THE GIFTS YOU KEEP GIVING US 😭
BNW has the most beautiful photos of Jikook
Jimin is so in love you guys. Look at the way his entire body and his eyes especially just soften into absolute fondness love and yearning when he looks at Jungkook 😭
So beautiful. Love seeing their Love. 🥰
This new Calvin Klein collection must be one of the best brand’s deal a member has had in a hot minute. As I’ve said before, it’s amazing to see how far he has come with self expression and how something he once had to hide is now inspirational and unique.
It’s also interesting to see how, at least through the clothes that I have seen so far, the ARMY, the crown, the 🥴 emoji, the purple heart and even the “+” in between the letters are designed here and there, but not the “J” on top of the M that should, technically, stand for Jungkook’s initial, and that’s also part of the letters on his hand. It just reminded me once again of how odd it would be for that letter to be put somewhere alone, as an abbreviation of Jungkook’s name, considering he’s always been JK (which is on the clothes: CK and JK, not CK and J); and how crazy it is that the J only makes sense as an abbreviation because it stands on the M.
FYAAAAA god the way Jimin put his hand on the back of JKs neck, fingers in his hair just a bit, pulling him closer, smiling right at him while JK moans into the mic ALSO looking at Jimin. Jesus
The intro to this song was always a CHOICE but thanks jikook for making it CRAZIER for me
Even X knows there is just something about Jikook
So, El Paso. 2 days of Jikook joy.
And I happened to be scrolling through X enjoying today's Jikookery only to come by this:
Hmm..
Black N' White now posting risqué content?
Side note: I am overjoyed Black N' White is back and fully active. Love that she's giving us the most gorgeous photos and videos of JM and JK individually and together and love how it looks like she's going to be with them throughout the tour (fingers crossed).
Anyways, here's the post:
See? When not on the app it requires proof of age, lol.
And these are the actual photos shared in this post:
Definitely adult content going on here.
Ok, but seriously, that last photo...
Taken from this moment here:
From both angles. JM's and JK's.
I guess the clips are ok for X (no proof of age required there) but that specific smokin' hot photo is just too much.
This post I came by just now kind of sums it up for X.
😂😂
As I mentioned, we had so much Jikookery going on these past couple of days. Cute moments, naughty moments, lovely moments.
But one moment stood out to me more than any other (even more than NJ's clearly not happy face with Jikook be Jikooking, lol).
And that's this one:
JK takes that piece of confetti and decides to create the heart.
While doing so he looks to JM and continues to create the heart.
He shows it to us.
He shows it to JM.
He shows it to us again.
Oh, he's definitley proud of himself there.
Kind of reminds me of this moment:
No nod from JM, but definitely acknowledgement noted.
And then we have this:
Yes, nothing new with JK placing his rings above the JM, duh.
But the choice of ring is what we are talking about here.
Is that a P?
It sure looks like a P.
Making:
PJM
And yes, I'd love to figure out what that ring actually is, but at the end of the day does it matter? Really? Because that sure looks like a P. And JK, he ain't playing around.
He could have chosen to wear that ring on a different finger.
He could have chosen to wear it upside down.
But NO!!
JK chose to place it that way around, so it looks like a P.
And JK chose to wear that P on that finger.
He also chose, as per usual, not to place that ring over the J but above it.
He had plenty of rings to play around with, but nope. Those were his choices.
End result being this:
Oh, and with the confetti heart...
MADE YOU LOOK!!!
She really deserves all her flowers. This is incredible
Guys I'm super emotional. I kept thinking about @hon3ymo0n post about blacknwhite.
I also saw her story on instagram about having this drive to make such beautiful work it would make people put aside prejudices.
And look, all the weirdness going on for a while. The way they kept being so in love today but with the air of "we shouldn't be doing this" and Namjoon side eyeing them again like?? I want them to breathe for fuck's sake but you know what this isn't possible bcs of the company or the fandom or simply our society as a whole that cannot accept queerness and it just breaks my heart that they cannot love freely. And maybe they never will be able to.
THIS IS SO UNFAIR! it's just infuriating because how can people be prejudiced against love 😭 and a love that is so beautiful. The most beautiful love I have ever seen. It makes no goddamn sense guys. I am not saying that they should bcs this is their choice whatever they show to the world but they should be able to if they want to! It's should be their right! It shouldn't be such a goddamn problem!
This is putting such anger in me. But you know what? I think I will get inspired by blacknwhite philosophy and transform this as drive too.
Like double down on everything. Double down on support, on showing them love, of using our voices, on creating, on our community supporting each other in every way we can but guys I do not care how we do this. Literally each of you, you all have your unique signature, your unique skills, your unique heart. You are all so different. But if each of us use our uniqueness and put in the work to show these two incredible men that we love them no matter what. That they are perfect as they are. That whatever they wanna show the world we will support it. That we cherish them as artists and that we also cherish their relationship in every aspect, then maybe, maybe, we could make a difference.
Like if we can ease their hearts only for a second in the midst of this complicated world then we will have won.
Guys I am so fired up you have no idea. You thought I was in this jikook shit before well I am a thousand times more now.
I will do it in my own way and I hope you will do it with yours. Use your voice, speak up, share, write, create, send love, buy music, educate and let the whole fucking world know.
Maybe if we do it all together with thousands we will be able to help people put aside their prejudices. Maybe Jimin & Jungkook could be more free. Or at least they'll know how incredibly loved they are. That's IT'S OK.
JIKOOKERS RISE UP I BEG YOU
We need you 😭🙏
I am so furious but you know that makes me wanna help in every fucking way I can
I hope all of us will
I love you guys 🙏
Please
The fact this is two minutes
THEY'VE TRAUMATIZED US
the way they're holding each other's hands is adorable ♡
The Attacks on Jungkook and Jimin are Frustrating, but not Forfeiting.
I figured that I'd wind up talking about this at some point, though I didn't expect that today would be that day. But as usual, clowns are behaving badly with no signs of stopping. 🙄
So let's get this out of the way now, because it's surely gonna continue to happen across this tour. 😒
I know it can be very discouraging to constantly see anyone and everyone who highlights Jimin and Jungkook get attacked while 90% of the fandom stays silent. But there's light at the end of the tunnel, and tbh I think what we're seeing here is a victory on our end. 💪
So we all know that ever since this comeback began, we've seen nothing but the fandom favorite ships be shoved to the forefront. I will not name these ships at all, we all should know who I'm talking about.
Honestly, just look at every single group schedule, interview, and activity since the album released. It's almost always the exact same combo of members, and of course, Jikook pushed as far apart as possible. 🙄 Even in photos, we get Jimin and Jungkook next to every other member multiple times, but rarely each other. They can barely get 2 minutes of screentime together in any of the MV behind the scenes.
The only time so far they have been able to sit by each other in a group schedule was on Hot Ones, and I'm guessing that was only because they've been known to enjoy eating spicy food together. Otherwise, the fans of the fandom favorite pairings have been literally getting their favorite duos spoon fed to them since March 20th.
And yet despite that, those lunatics have been on a hating spree attacking anyone who dares celebrate Jimin and Jungkook. 😵💫 In just the past 3 weeks alone they've come after
Jungkook's MMA friend Choo Sunghoon when he illegally hosted JK and Jimin on his own variety show. 🙃
Jimin's friend who committed the cardinal sin of having his dance video liked and re-posted by JK 🫣
Jungkook's boxing coach Tommy who partook in a heinous crime by making a post and spotlighting only Jungkook and Jimin 😭
Three artists who broke the law and had their Jikook fanart reposed by Jungkook. 😰
A Jimin update account who horrifyingly posted a concert moment of Jimin interacting with Jungkook today 😬
And of course JK himself who participated in blasphemy by reposing several artworks of himself and Jimin, with one re-post as recently as yesterday 😨
Now yes, this all sounds absurd on the surface. But let's think about this for a second. 🤔
Is this the behavior of people who are 100% confident in their 'ship' and believe them to be a real couple of multiple years? 🤨
Because this to me sounds like a group of people who are experiencing the cracks falling in on them and their facade slowly dying. 🤷♀️
They are getting everything they want on a silver platter from the company and it's still not enough. They're still doing everything in their power to erase Jimin and Jungkook interactions. Why?
Because deep down, they know that the lies they've told themselves over the years aren't true, and they're losing their minds. 🤷♀️ What they've brainwashed themselves into believing is unraveling at the speed of sound, so their only plan of action is to attack, attack, attack anything that destroys the narrative, if only so they can believe their own lies for just another day. And the crazy thing is, their attacks CHANGE NOTHING.
Attacking Sunghoon doesn't change the fact that Jungkook chose for Jimin (not any other member) to attend the show with him and he STILL went to support them both at their concert. Bullying Tommy into adding a platonic photo of Jungkook and another member won't make that other member any closer to Tommy or change the fact that he only praised Jimin and JK in his post. Harassing Jimin's friend won't take away Jungkook's support of his video. Harassing artists over drawing Jimin and Jungkook doesn't erase the fact that Jungkook saw the artwork and deemed it impressive enough to like and share. Bullying a Jimin account into deleting her Jikook video doesn't change the fact that everyone who was at the concert today saw it, anyone who re-watches the stream will see it, and anyone who looks at other social media accounts can see it. 🤷♀️
And harassing Jungkook and Jimin will never stop them from being the closest members and loving each other. The hatred and nonsense didn't stop them from matching like boyfriends today.
Literally wearing cupids kissing like you can't make this up!! 🤭
Didn't stop them from doing this today 👇
Didn't stop Jungkook from naturally walking past every other member to stand next to Jimin today, only to remember he was supposed to be on the other side and tap his arm before moving to his spot. And to me, he looked noticeably disappointed by having to move.
전위성
None of these attacks mean anything. Those clowns don't have one fraction of the impact they think they do. Only the company is humoring them with crumbs, likely only to keep them quiet for most of this tour. But it will never happen because nothing will satisfy those skunks aside from their ships being real, which they aren't. We can all see the truth, and they hate that they can't stop the truth. They can block, erase, ignore, all they want. It will never stop Jimin and Jungkook from being true to themselves. 😌
They think they can try to drown out the claps of love with a deafening chorus of negativity, it will NEVER mean anything. So let's take on these antis with the mindset that all they're doing is wasting their own time. Attacks won't change facts and they are in a losing battle. It's just a matter of time before they all fall flat on the ground with no hope of recovery 😏
Looking forward to what Jimin and Jungkook will get up to next. 🤗
