Hi Storm,
I’ve noticed that JiKook seem to have a lot of nicknames attached to them individually and separately. JungKook is bunny, baby star candy, JK, Koo etc. Jimin is Mochi, Chimchim, min min, Mangetok(?sp) etc. Together they’re the Busans, Sun and Moon and not sure what else. Are they the only ones in the group with all these cute nicknames? Are they all given to them by fans and what’s the origin? I thought of this ask after seeing JM referred to as puppy kitty by the editors which is so darn cute. What do JiKook call each other the most? Do they ever use any of these as endearments toward each other? It’s more like three asks in one but just really curious at the plethora of nicknames these two seem to have.
Lmao! Hi!! Welcome Back!
Sooo, i have a whole small masterlist section about Nicknames that Jikook call each other, which you can find here:
