Hi I've seen many army explaining Jimin's portfolio as a silent way to come out. Relating it to his sexuality purely based on the bi lights behind. But don't you think it's just a lighting. Because if Jikook are in a relationship that means JK is also queer but i don't see JK highlighting this or queer coding in anyway. He just did a vampire concept which didn't had any particular message like Jimin's or was reflectiion on him unlike JM or RM. If anything he just ised a famous fiction, flirt with army and fuel up the Y/N agenda.
Anon, am I getting your ask right? Are you asking why Jimin's photofolio concept was gay, and JK's wasn't? And then you believe Jimin's concept wasn't gay, and Jikookers made that up? And do you think you make sense? lol
Anyways, I don't care what others say, but coming out doesn't work that way. Using queer lighting or bigender sign in an artistic concept doesn't mean that the artist has come out as queer. "Coming out" is a big word, and it needs to be literal and straightforward. This was not the first time that Jimin used queer concepts in his representations (F.E ArmyZip 2019 and Filter performance 2020), and if this is supposed to be seen as a silent come out, then he is already out for years now, which is not true. There were indeed several hints in Jimin's concept that could be read as queer, like the lighting, the gender fluidity, and the YSL poster shirt, and in my opinion, this concept of Jimin's photofolio was an extension of his previous clues, which might lead us to something bigger and more straightforward someday.
But, one big horrible mistake you are making in your question is connecting queer representations to personal relationships. Jimin can be gay, but it has nothing to do with any of the ships that include him. He can come out, but his partner can stay closeted (or in a glass closet) forever. They can be open about their sexualities but never make their relationship status public. Don't ever mix these topics.
And about JK's photofolio concept, Vampires haven't been invented by the Twighlight series or fanfictions, lol. FYI Vampires' history goes back centuries; "Carmilla" is a book created by Sheridan Le Fanu in 1872. Carmilla is the story of a lesbian vampire and has been considered one of the first queer representations in the history of literature. Interestingly, this first representation uses a blood-sucking monster, and there is an actual reason for that. In classic literature, horror elements like vampires, witches, and other monsters have been used as metaphors for outcasts of society AKA queer people. Yes. Vampires are gay, and everyone knows that lol.
I'm not saying that Jikook both have deliberately used queer concepts for their photofolio, it might be intentional or not. But the audience can interpret the art in the way they perceive it. If you prefer gay representation, then you can see it the way you want, but if you love heteronormative and Y/N representations, then you can have your fantasies either.
hi ! i was wondering if you know how to download armyzip videos from the armyzip website? i’ve tried screenrecording them but my laptop always gives me skipped frames :(( or if you don’t know, maybe someone who sees this ask will know a method to do so?
(i’ve tried looking for the videos online but they’re either 720p at best, have a huge watermark, or have captions turned on)
thank u ♡
"the outline method is using widevine
1. download the encrypted file using yt-dlp or nilaoda
2. get the keys (there is a plenty method for this)
3. decrypt it using the keys with mp4decrypt or shaka
4. mux it with mkvtoolnix"
thats what a person told me this week but i dont know how to do it because i dont understand codes that well. i have these videos but I can only share them with you if you send me a message but not anonymously.
