“There is a disease in the heart of man. The disease is human emotion.” Day in and day out, children and unsuspecting citizens were dragged into the government laboratories and academies, corrupting them with their twisted idea of a perfect world. The distorted face of a man on the big screen repeated the same words over and over again– draining the free will of the people.

“Our world is perfect, our world is safe. Our world is a world without errors, though, a small error leads to a crack, and a crack leads to pain. Pain is an unnecessary emotion and a negative element in life. We want to protect you all. You, living your life in your position, are the world itself. Do not doubt, do not question; this is all for you. We’re right because you’re right. Keep that in mind. We work for you, we dedicate ourselves to you. All of this is for you. Do not question.”

A world without cracks. That’s what they wanted but failed to create.

“Bullshit,” you scoffed, ripping the flimsy paper off the wall, your gloved hand running over the paper that had your picture on it with bold letters saying, ‘WANTED DEAD!’ You let the piece of paper fall down next to your feet onto the wet ground. With quick steps, you walked out of the dark alleyway, your eyes roaming the dark, empty streets to check if there is anyone who may be a threat to you. Your hand never left the gun that was strapped to your hip, the cold metal giving you a sense of comfort. With quiet steps you made your way through the shadows until you met the border of the outer districts.

The outer districts were almost completely abandoned, neglected by the government, causing the people to move into the center of Wonderland, Utopia. Where the government had a better eye on them, better control. Here, there were only rogue citizens, rummaging through trash for food and water, fighting with stray dogs and cats for one bite of that soggy burger on the ground. It was disgusting.

“Hey, you!” Someone’s voice cut through the silence, making you turn around to meet a man clad in navy uniform and glistening badges scattered over his chest, military. The soldier caught up to you, breath fogging up in front of his face. “Name and ID,” he demanded, “what are you doing out after curfew?”

“I went on a walk, sir.” You mustered, voice monotone and face muscles relaxed. Handing him a fake ID, you told him the name matching the ID. Looking over the government card, he gestured for you to take off your mask. All you did was slightly shake your head from side to side. Your eyes fell onto the silver badge on his chest that read Sector 7, his rank was low.

The soldier sighed as he handed the ID back to you. “I need you to take off that mask, ma’am.” He said more firmly, you still didn’t budge. “Ma’am,” he warned. With a roll of your eyes you took off the cloth, meeting the soldier’s eyes. A frown curled your lips as you saw his expression turn sour. He pulled out the gun that was strapped to his hip and pointed it at you, the smooth silver of the weapon glowing under the fluorescent lamps. “On your knees, now!” You did as told, putting your hands behind your head. The soldier put his gun back into its holster and turned around, reporting to the military that he had found you but when he turned back around, you were gone. His heart leaped into his throat, scared of what the new Supreme General would do to him if he found out about the young soldier’s mistake. “I would advise you to come out, the military is on their way.” His voice had a tremble in it, anxiety crawling into his gut. Suddenly, cold metal came into touch with the soldier’s nape, causing him to flinch and grab his own gun, or where it should’ve been.

“Walk,” you demanded, pressing the gun harder into his skin. You noticed that the soldier didn’t have any weapons on himself, except the gun you had in your hands. With trembling knees, he walked forward, stepping on broken glass that was scattered on the pavement, probably from the broken windows. The alley you led him into was dark, only his silhouette visible. You reached the end of the alley, a tall brick wall standing in front of you. With a hit on the back of the soldier’s head, you made him fall face first onto the ground. He immediately scurried to sit up, raising his hands in front of his face to shield it from you. A sigh left your lips as you raised the gun again, pointing it directly at his forehead.

You noticed the tremble of his lip and the glossy eyes, his life visibly flashing in front of his eyes. It was truly a shame, putting these young people into this position. The government mistreats them, never batting an eye if they die. Without a word, you pulled the trigger, shooting the poor boy into his forehead, making it as quick and painless as possible. As his body fell limp, you smashed the gun against the brick wall with as much strength as you could muster, the weapon falling into multiple pieces, spotting the silver chip on the ground and stepping on it.

With cautious steps, you walked out of the alley, eyes roaming the streets to see if someone was there. Little did you know, somebody had their eyes set onto you, hiding somewhere in the shadows. When you didn’t see anything, you took off, sprinting into the forest that led to your house.

The cold air was burning your lungs as you kept running. Your skin felt like thousands of needles were being dug into it.

You slowed down once you saw your house in the distance, surrounded by the tall trees in the middle of a clearing. The moon was shining in its full glory. You let your gaze wander around your surroundings before walking up to the door. The keys jingled as you stepped inside. Just as you locked the door behind you, you heard the high-pitched voice of a special someone.

“(Y/N)!” A smile crawled onto your face as you met the big eyes of the four year old girl, her lips pulled into a wide grin as she ran to you, her tiny arms wrapping around your hips. “You’re home,” she exclaimed with a giggle.

“Jihan,” you said, kneeling to be the same level as the small girl. She immediately let her arms wrap around your neck, clinging to you. With one arm beneath her bum, you stood up and laid a kiss onto her temple, her soft hair tickling your nose. “Did you miss me?” You asked, walking down the stairs leading into the living room, where your grandfather was sitting, reading old documents from his time in the military.

As you reached one of the big couches, you dropped Jihan on it, letting a hand run through your hair to smooth it out. You took off your thick vest and the heavy belt that had all kinds of weapons and guns strapped to it. “Anything special?” Your grandfather’s gruff voice broke through the silence.

A sigh left your lips as you plopped down on the couch next to Jihan. “No,” you paused, closing your eyes, “nothing.” You felt Jihan snuggle into your side, sighing as she hugged your waist with her tiny arms. Your hand was caressing her back when your fingers brushed over a bulky scar on the back of her nape. It felt as if time stopped as you sat on the couch with Jihan snuggled into your side.

You let your head fall onto the backrest on the couch and closed your eyes. The only sounds that could be heard in the small living room was the turning of pages from the files your grandfather was reading. “(Y/N),” your grandfather cut through your thoughts, making you turn your head from where you sat. “Have you ever thought about how life would be if the world changed,” he paused. “Like… a new world, a better world. Not perfect, but better.”

You sighed heavily, closing your eyes back again. “It’s kind of unimaginable,” you stated truthfully. “Your image of a new world would only happen if the Man In White died,” you muttered in a bored tone, throwing your arm over your face. “Which is impossible,” you added, letting yourself sink into the cushions of the worn-down couch, Jihan sleeping by your side.

“But if you think about it,” your grandfather spoke up, a tinge of hope in his voice. “It is possible.”

“No,” you countered sharply, looking at your grandfather with a heated gaze. He just looked at you with furrowed brows as he said nothing. “It’s impossible,” you started. “As soon as something happens to that son of a bitch they will have an heir up there, they won’t let him die without some type of back-up, Pa.” You noticed you had gotten louder as your eyes fell on Jihan, her stirring pulling you out of the haze of your frustrations. You let your hand run over her shoulder softly to soothe her back to sleep while you looked at your grandfather.

He stood up and threw a stack of papers onto the coffee table in front of you. It had Confidential written on it in bold letters. “Read that,” he pointed at it. You did, you read every single word of the file in your hand, the picture of a familiar blonde biting into your eyes. “If he is still alive, he will give us answers. He knows it all,” your grandfather said. “Choi Ilsung’s son knows things that you and me don’t know.”

“You are talking like I never had any experience in the military,” you mumbled, letting the file fall onto the coffee table. “You keep dismissing the stuff I saw and had to endure behind those damned doors,” your words were sharp as you glared at your grandfather. You had the urge to scratch the bulky scar that was right between your shoulder blades, your skin burning like it was fresh.

“Because you aren’t him.”

“Because I am me!” You yelled suddenly, standing up. “Stop comparing me to someone you don’t know like I do!” In your haze of anger, you turned around to look at Jihan on the couch. To your relief, she was still sleeping soundly. With one last look to your grandfather, you moved to pick her up and tuck her into her own bed.

When you were done tucking Jihan in, you walked back into the living room and sat down on the couch. Your grandfather didn’t say anything else, all he did was sigh and walk with his crane into the kitchen, which was connected to the living room. “You want some tea?” He asked as he put water into the kettle.

"Yes, please." You whispered, looking at a random point in the living room.

You were laying in your bed, drenched in your own sweat as tears profusely ran down your temples. The dizziness causing your head to hurt like it was being split in half made you almost completely unable to move. You tried to regain control of your body by changing your rapid breathing pattern into a calmer one, which didn’t work at first but once you were there, you stood up on shaky legs. Your right knee felt like it could buckle under your weight anytime, so you held onto the wall as leverage until you arrived at the bathroom. Immediately, you were met with your disheveled reflection, hair sticking in every possible direction, sweat glistening on your hot skin, and the dark, heavy eye bags that were embedded under your eyes.

You could feel the harsh pounding on the left side of your head, the constant abuse you had to endure taking a toll on you. You lean forward and spit a heavy glob of spit and bile into the sink as a wave of nausea hit you. Your right arm was tingling like a thousand needles were prickling your skin at once, the limb shaking under the weight of your upper body. As frustration took over, you let your head lean against the mirror on the cabinet above the sink, and when your rapid thoughts didn’t seem to calm, accompanied by the throbbing headache and constant ringing in your ears, you pulled your head back and let it fall against the mirror. Over and over, with every hit against the mirror it got harder, your face pulled into a snarl as a low groan rumbled through your chest.

“This won’t make it better, you know,” your grandfather’s voice cut through the harsh pounding of your head against the mirror. You stopped your movements as soon as his deep voice met your ears. “You’ll wake Jihan, and I don't want her to see you like this,” he trailed off, meeting your eyes in the mirror. “Get it together,” were his last words when he left, probably going to his own bedroom, the quiet thuds of his cane echoing through the small space.

His words echoed in your mind as you washed your face with cold water and brushed your teeth to get rid of the sour taste of bile on your tongue. “(Y/N)?” The soft call of your name made you spit the toothpaste in your mouth into the sink and quickly rinse your mouth out. As soon as you turned around, a wave of dizziness washed over you but you tried to conceal it as much as you could. Jihan was standing there, her eyes puffy and red from sleep, little beads of tears running down her soft cheeks and her little hand was holding her plush bunny by its ear as she rubbed her eyes with her free hand. The sight caused your heart to clench.

“Yes, baby?” You asked softly, stretching your arms out for her to hug you. “Why aren’t you sleeping?” You let your hand caress the top of her head, the silky strands of hair comforting you in a way as you comforted her.

“I can’t sleep,” she whispered into the junktion of your neck and shoulder. “I… I had a bad dream,” a soft sob forced itself out of her throat. You cooed softly as you rocked her from side to side. “Can I sleep with you?” Her question made your heart skip a few beats. You were contemplating if it was a good idea after the small episode you had, but you agreed nonetheless. Collecting the courage, you stood up, though your right knee was still a bit shaky, you were able to walk to your bedroom and put Jihan on your bed. It didn’t take long for you to join, pulling her tightly against your chest with her plush bunny squeezed between your bodies.

You didn’t get a wink of sleep that night, fearing that you’d wake Jihan. When you noticed that the time for her to wake up came, you softly nudged her cheek to pull her out of the confines of dreamland. “Good morning, pretty,” you cooed softly, pushing the wild hairs out of her face. She groaned in protest and buried her face into your warm neck. “But it’s time for breakfast,” you said with a pout. She didn’t say anything for a few seconds so you figured she fell back asleep. Giving up, you stood up and let her sleep on your bed as you went to the bathroom to take a much needed shower.

“Good morning,” you greeted your grandfather as he sat on the dinner table with his half-eaten sandwich and files scattered across. His glasses sat low on the bridge of his nose and his free hand either played with the end of his beard or took the sandwich to bite into it. While he was sitting silently, you pulled out bread from the cabinet and made your own sandwich and one for Jihan for when she wakes up.

You sat down across from your grandfather. Just as you were about to take a bite from your sandwich he spoke up, “I don’t want to see you like that ever again.” Your eyes found his, your sandwich between your fingers. You nodded softly, your eyes avoiding him as you bit into the sandwich, your appetite practically gone. “Jihan knows a lot,” he started again, flicking the side of a paper. “And she notices a lot,” he paused, looking at you. “I don’t want her to see you like that. She doesn’t remember anything that happened before you took her in, but once she remembers, we have to tell her everything. And now is not the time.” You nodded again, keeping your eyes trained on your plate. The thought of Jihan remembering everything that was done to her in those rehab centers made you shiver, her cries ringing in your ears.

With a soft shake of your head you continued to eat, barely able to swallow the dry bread. “I’ll be gone for today, and probably won’t come back until later tonight. So, don’t wait up for me,” you explained, looking at your grandfather. “We are running out of necessities,” you explained.

Your grandfather just nodded and resumed his readings. “Don’t get caught.” Was all he said as silence took over.

After having eaten breakfast, you started to get ready, a mask pulled over your nose and mouth to conceal your identity, heavy leather attire with multiple weapons strapped to your body, and a long, gray cloak pulled over your shoulders, the hood cast a shadow over the upper part of your face. Without a noise you left the house, climbing up the stairs to your front door. Once you exited, you lock everything again, making sure that nothing would happen.

Though, as soon as your back was turned to the house, you felt a weird sensation of being watched, as if someone was standing right behind you. Turning around, you looked everywhere. There was no chance, right? After making sure that you saw nobody, you made your way down the dirt path that led to the outer districts. It didn’t take five minutes for you to hear a sound from behind you, like something heavy falling from a high altitude. One of your hands found the small knives strapped to your thigh and let it glide across the air, only to get impaled on one of the thick trees. Nothing. You ran a hand over your face, a frustrated sigh muffled by the cloth that covered your mouth. You quickly walked over and yanked the knife out of the tree bark and stuck it back into its place.

Your speed picked up as you practically jogged through the thick lines of trees, letting a sigh of relief fall from your lips as soon as you reached a clearing and not too long after you finally reached the outer districts of Wonderland. People of all kinds were walking around in thick, gray cloaks, some disappearing into alleyways, most likely to exchange goods, or some disappeared into the abandoned houses and apartments.

You take multiple shortcuts through alleyways to find your destination, the entrance into the underground. It didn’t take you too long, afterall, you knew these streets like the back of your hand. But once you reach the underground, it’s unknown lands. Your steps gradually slowed down as you walked through the crowded space, the humidity casting a thin, glistening glow on your forehead. Music, laughter, and profanities echoed through the air as you kept walking with your gaze kept low, undetectable. A shadow was cast over the top half of your face as you roamed through the tight marketplace. Your eyes fell on colorful vegetables propped up on a tiny stand with a man shouting to catch the customers’ attention.

“G’day, ma'am! How can I help you?” The man’s loud voice cut through your concentration as your head jerked up to look at his face. He looked old, skin pale, probably untouched by the sun. “My fruits and vegetables are very fresh today, from the fields of the outer districts,” he exclaimed, a large smile stretched on his lips.

You lift a hand to point at a bundle filled with various vegetables. “How much for this?” The man gave you a reasonable price for the bundle, which had you buy two at once. You were careful as you pulled the money out of your pocket to hand it to the marketer. As soon as you got your hands on the fresh goods, you stuffed them into your backpack and continued your walk through the crowded space. You spent barely over an hour finding the things you had to buy and take back home.

Your bag was heavy on your back as you hurried back to the entrance. As you were focused on walking through the bodies of people, you suddenly fell forward as something violently bumped into your back. With a grunt, you looked up over your shoulder to see the back of a tall man, his arms lifted as he talked to someone in front of him. You quickly scrambled to your feet to walk away, which seemed to be hard now with the way people started crowding around you and the other two men. You looked over your shoulder and noticed that a heated argument had erupted between the two. Another harsh shove had you bump into someone again, a low groan rumbling through your chest as you started to get agitated. The crowd was closing in around you, the air was tight in your lungs.

You managed to steady yourself between the people, frantically looking through the large crowd to find an exit. The fight between the men started escalating further and put you into a frenzy of your thoughts. Right as you started to feel numbness slowly creep up your fingertips, a hand reached out of the crowd towards you. “Let’s go,” a man called, looking at you and then at the men behind you. Without thinking twice, you took the stranger’s hand and let yourself get pulled out of the thick crowd. As soon as you were out of there, you felt like you could breathe again, pushing your hood away to feel a bit more free.

“Figured you wanted to get out of there,” the stranger said, a breathy chuckle followed by his words. Your gaze found him, red hair biting into your vision, gaze lingering there for a second too long. “Did anything happen to you?” His question pulled you out of your thoughts.

“No,” you breathed, looking back at the commotion. “No, nothing happened,” you added, checking your backpack to see if everything was in place. A sigh of relief fell from your lips when you saw everything was in place, your heart calming and the feeling in your fingers returning. “Thanks,” you muttered as you looked at the stranger again.

He smiled, offering his hand to you. “I’m Jongho,” he introduced himself. You nodded courtly, shaking his hand. You didn’t say anything, though, wary of the people you meet and talk to. “So no name?” He asked with a smirk. After a second, he laughed and waved a dismissive hand. “It’s fine, understandable to not trust anyone in the underground,” he assured, pulling away. “It seems you aren’t very familiar with being down here, no?” Your eyes narrowed softly, slowly shaking your head, no. Jongho just nodded with a hum. “Yeah, well, this is how it is every day, especially at the marketplace,” he laughed. “That tall guy that hit you to the ground is actually a good friend of mine, Yunho. He likes to pick fights with the biggies in here, so I learned to mind my business when he does something.”

You didn’t say anything as you just looked at him, occasionally looking over your shoulder when Jongho mentioned Yunho. “It looks like you are in a hurry,” he muttered, pulling your attention one more time.

“Yeah, I have to get going now,” you mumbled, walking around Jongho. “Thank you again.” With that, you made your way back to where you came from, out of the underground.

The walk back was even more stressful for you. Not knowing what was awaiting you at home, your steps were quick and your breath heavy. With every step, your right knee trembled under your weight. And there it was, the feeling of being watched. It’s as if eyes were following you through the thick branches of the forest you were walking through. As if there were eyes in the sky.

Seven Days to Fall Again | A Jeon Jungkook Series | Teaser

Inspired by the MV "Seven" by Jung Kook ft. Latto (obvi lol) Summary: You're finished with this relationship but Jungkook begs you for one more week, convinced that he can make you fall in love all over again. Pairing: Reader x Jungkook (almost exes to lovers lol) Warnings: Some explicit language (Like one word lol), arguing a/n: No clear plans for this other than following the music video storyline since I haven't seen too many fics like that :) Let me know if there are certain aspects from the music video that you would like to see! Series Masterlist

"I said no! End of discussion" I huff, tired of playing his games. "One week, that's all I'll need" he asks, doing better than I am at maintaining a sense of decorum at what he had intended on being our anniversary dinner. With me on the other hand fully intending on using this night to end things between us.

"I said I was done with this relationship. Why is that something that you just can't get through your head?" I argue. It's always like this with us, I'm always the one that gets upset and I hate that about myself. Where as he is able to stay calm, cool and collected and I hate that about him even more.

We're like fire and ice. I'm short tempered and he's patient. I'm outgoing and he's introverted. I love adventures and he would rather stick close to home. 'Why would we want to leave when we have everything we need here?' he would say to me. 'Why bother breathing when you're going to die anyways?' I retorted back and he couldn't offer up an argument to that thankfully.

"Please Noona, can you keep your voice down?" he pleads with me, noticing that the people around us have started taking notice of our conversation. "You can't tell me what to do Jungkook. I'm still your elder whether we are together or not so you do not get to disrespect me like that!" I say getting up from my chair making moves to leave. I know in my head that I'm blowing things out of proportion, but when I am this upset I see red and I can't seem to stop myself.

"All this time you've been messing around and playing with my heart and I'm done Jungkook. I'm sick of yo-" "Noona watch out!" he yells, pulling me towards him and out of harms way.

It's funny, he's trying to save me from getting hurt when he's been the one who causes me the most pain these days...

HYUNJIN : A KISS WHEN YOU WAKE UP

hyunjin miraculously woke up earlier than usual. he left the bed managing not to make any noise to wake you up, but his movements did so. your eyes flutter open as your boyfriend realized you were already awake. taking back his empty side of the bed, he leaned closer to give a soft kiss on your lips.

“i’m sorry love, did i wake you up?” he whispered, caressing your cheek as you were able to shake your head in response making him smile. “i’ll just go use the bathroom hmm?”

“hmm,” you hummed with a nod. hyunjin then again, kissed your lips before making a beeline towards the bathroom, leaving you spacing out on your shared bed as you try to come back to reality after a good night's sleep. it took you a while to take a look at the time on the screen of your phone. it was almost 10 o’clock. having an exhausting day yesterday pushed you and hyunjin to sleep in.

you dragged yourself out of the bed, still feeling drowsy as always every time you woke up in the morning. hyunjin was taking so long to use the bathroom, you wonder why. your feet took you towards the bathroom door and a knocked a few times.

“jinnie are you almost done?” you asked, gently rubbing your eyes. “what’s taking you so long?”

“the door is open honey,” you heard him muffling. twisting the doorknob, you saw him brushing his teeth. your arms found comfort the moment you gave him a hug from behind, causing him to finish his business quickly and go hug you in front. “good morning sleepyhead, still sleepy?” he asked as you nodded in response with your face buried in his chest. “do you want to sleep again?”

“no, you have work,” you said giving him a pout making him kiss your lips in return.

“i still have an hour before leaving,” he said, but the frown on your face never faded which made him chuckle. hyunjin pinched your cheeks before smothering your lips with kisses again. he knew how much you like it, the same goes for him when he is the one being sulky. you gave in later and showed him a smile. “you’re so cute, it makes me don’t want to leave. hmmph,”

“you need to work, jinnie,” you said, giving him another kiss.

“fine, i’ll just find a way to get home early so i can cuddle you!” he grinned.

“yeah yeah, let me wash my face first,” you chuckled, pulling away from the hug, taking your turn to the sink. hyunjin grabbed a face towel as he waited for you to finish.

it became a routine, waking up together in the morning, brushing your teeth, and washing your face together, he’d take the shower first as you cook breakfast or vice versa, but sometimes it becomes lonely when he leaves early for work or spend the whole day away for his schedule. times like this should be cherished, even if it’s just a random domestic fluff, you can have him on a date later.

“are you done?” he asked as you turned to him. “my baby is so cute,” he cooed, wiping your face gently.

“stop it, you’re making me shy,” you whined in response.

“no, you’re cute and pretty, okay? i’m not going to get tired of saying it all over again,” he said giving you another kiss. “i love you, okay?”

there, you smiled, “i love you too.”

CHAN : LISTENING TO THE SONG HE MADE

you and chan share the same major in college, he often asked you to come to his studio to listen to some demos he made, through seungmin to know your perspective. today wasn’t anything different, you received a text from him to come over for another demo again. his studio was just a few meters away from the music building, the department let him use the old studio for him to create the love of his life. he just needed to drag his equipments with him.

seungmin just got out of the studio and happened to come across you in the hallway. you were hustling towards the room when he waved at you. “hey, y/n!” he said.

“hi, seungmin!” you greeting brightly.

“hyung has been expecting you,” he said with his cute smile, showing his braces with his eyes turned into a halfmoon.

“i know, i’m on my way to see him,” you said. “great job with the demos by the way, i love your voice!”

“thanks!” he walking pass through you and went ahead.

“such a cutie,” you murmured to himself, taking the way to chan’s studio. “chan?” you called, knocking on his door a few times before hearing a faint voice from inside. twisting the doorknob, you saw him sitting in front of his working desk with his laptop on. earphones plugged on his ears as he waved as a hello, gesturing to sit on the empty seat beside him.

he was jamming with own demo song with seungmin’s voice on it. he gestured his hand for you to wait, getting the headphones you would always use to listen from his own folder. you find him cute especially when he’s overwhelmed in a good way, it was something to look forward when he liked what he created. admiring him at this point made your heart pound, it hasn’t been a few weeks since you started dating him, probably the chemistry between you two sparked the relationship, and sharing the same perspective when it comes to music.

you were all smiles as he did his tiny dance, that made you laugh. chan chuckled to himself either as he removed his earphones.

“sorry about that, i loved the new song i made with seungmin,” he said.

“that’s alright, i happened to came across with him before i got here,” you replied. “is this the song you want me to listen to?” you asked as he shake your head, turning to his laptop to check.

“not yet, but i ah,” he paused. “i did make something a few days ago, i wanted to keep it for a while and revised a few parts,” he added.

“okay,”

“anyway, it’s not done, it’s just a half of it but i hope you’ll like it,” he said, placing the headset on your ears gently before playing the said song. “alright, here goes nothing,” he added, pressing a key making the song play.

you were surprised how soothing it was, seungmin’s voice added flavor to the song and its lyrics was new for chan to make. it wasn’t the first time you heard seungmin singing a love song, but the fact that chan wrote it made so special and unique. as if it’s telling someone that they’re thankful to meet them, and despite of the struggles in between the relationship, it resonates time for both lovers.

your boyfriend stared at you as you got lost with the song, it was so romantic, and there’s him. watching you in awe because of your mesmerized expression while titling your head from left to right, gently to the beat. the 1 minute song ended with a fading sound of piano, as your remove the headset off from your head.

“how was it?” he asked, being nervous.

“it was perfect chan! really! the lyrics were so heartwarming that i—”

“i made it for you,” he said, cutting you off with a smile. “the lyrics were meant for you,”

“i felt every word, thank you,” you awed as you gave him a hug, he could feel the beating of your heart, something that made him melt in your arms.

“for my precious one,” he said kissing your forehead.

“i want to write a song for you too,” you said, looking at him which made the guy chuckle in response.

“give me a kiss first,” he said pouting his lips earning a giggle from you, smacking his lips with your fingers.

“later,” you said making him groan in disbelief.

“fine,”

SEUNGMIN : RENTING A SMALL COFFEE SHOP

“y/n, are you almost done?” your boyfriend asked through the line as you hustled towards the exit of the university while hugging fresh books from the library.

“i’m on my way,” you said. “i’ve got your books,”

“really? thanks love,” he cooed.

“i’ll see you there okay?”

“hmm, careful on your way baby,”

it was almost lunchtime, lucky for you, class ended early than expected and seungmin invited you to drink coffee with him after asking a request. those books were actually for him, he couldn’t get himself because he’s pretty occupied. he was busy grinding the coffee beans with his back against you when you arrived. the banging of the tools and the sounds of the machine were the only things you’ve heard aside from his bustling around the staff area.

your boyfriend found a place to rent for a date, a small coffee shop with a garden outside. it happened that your aunt owns the area, she gave it for free. he refused at first, but your aunt insisted. besides, it was for you and when he told you about this, you couldn’t say no, when you knew he makes good coffee aside from the usual iced americano.

“y/n, you’re here,” he said, welcoming you with a hug and a kiss on the cheek.

“hi, i brought the things you asked me,” you said, handing three books in front of him. taking them for your hands, his smile went bigger as his eyes disappeared with it. the feeling of excitement and happiness enveloped his body the moment he read the covers. it wasn’t strange, having the same interests as your boyfriend sparked a relationship.

“thank you so much love,” he said giving you a quick kiss on the lips. “join me in the garden, i made something for you.”

“baby, you didn’t have to, really,” you said as seungmin held your hand gently, taking you to the back of the coffee shop.

“i insist,” he said with a pout on his lips. “i wanted to try this type of date since we’re both busy you know?”

“do you know how much i love you?” you asked making him chuckle, dragging an empty seat for you to sit down.

“i know exactly how it is,” he smirked.

the place was perfect as it gives a cottagecore vibe, with fairy lights hanging on the trees, flowers beneath the fence, and a few butterflies being friendly for some nectar, a table in the middle with two cups and saucers, the coffee maker pot with the pile of books you brought, the flower vase beside it and the wind howling gently to prevent the heat from the sun.

“this is so pretty minnie,” you said as you sat down.

“i made it,” he said. “i’m so glad you like it, and here, i also made coffee.” he added, taking the seat across from you, pouring the hot coffee he had just brewed. taking the cup, the aromatic scent of the hot liquid entered your nostrils earning a deep sigh in relief, it was natural with a hint of sugar to lessen the bitter taste. seungmin rested his elbows on the table, clasping his hands together as he watch you take a small sip to avoid getting your lips burn. “how is it?”

“it tastes amazing seungmin, i love it!” you said making him blush in return, taking a book and reached a random page, your boyfriend hid his face behind it.

“it’s embarrassing.” he said, still bashful from it.

“no, it’s not. why are you hiding?” you chuckled trying to take the book away from him when he just stick his tongue out to tease you. “rude, hmmph.” but seungmin just laughed, dragging your seat beside him, deciding to read books while taking his handmade coffee. and you thought it ended up there when you locked eyes with him after reading a few paragraphs.

“what?” he asked.

“nothing,” you said when he wrapped his arm around your shoulder, pulling you closer to him, kissing your lips as he take the open book to cover.

FELIX : MAKING A DESSERT FOR YOU

“what do you want for dessert?” felix asked as he hustled himself into the kitchen.

“pancakes?”

“with maple syrup and whipped cream, yes?” he asked again as you nodded in response.

“yes please,”

“good now, stay out of the kitchen for chef felix will cook privately,” he said making you frown.

“what am i going to do then? and lix, that’s our kitchen.” you whined in response.

“i love making surprises babe, and i don’t want to tire you. college is already exhausting so please rest, my food will comfort you later, okay?” he answered initiating a peck on your lips before pushing you away from the kitchen, gently.

“it’s just pancakes?” shaking your head, only a smile formed on your face as you make your way towards the couch, trying to find something to entertain yourself.

it was a bright afternoon, the glass walls of your shared apartment reflected the sunlight which made it ethereal. a good sight to relax, felix was right enough to describe how tiring it is to be a college student, plus, felix is always busy with his work, times like this always happen for a few days per month. other things come with phone communications. still, it made your relationship grow stronger. he would always make it up to you even if he didn’t have to.

felix is the sweetest boyfriend you could ask for, one that is gentle and kind. you didn’t even know how you managed to have someone like him in your life, but still, you were thankful. the feeling of fondness and intimacy broke out even at the start of this relationship with him. you love him so much that you can’t even bear to break his heart. the same goes for felix.

you were staring at the ceiling, nothing in mind, just spacing out as you wait for him to allow you inside the kitchen. the appetizing smell of the pancake has been dancing in the air in your direction, and you can’t help but to feel hungry.

“you can come in the kitchen now, love,” you heard your boyfriend say as you stood up with a grunt.

“finally,”

“i made what you asked for,” he smiled, showing the dining table with 3 pancakes piled on each plate with maple syrup and whipped cream.

“that looks good, thanks honey,” you said, giving him a peck on the lips before digging in. felix saw how much you love it, he smiled at the sight of you enjoying the food as he take the empty seat across from you. “this is absolutely amazing,”

“hmm, glad you like it, love,” he smiled. you were too busy with it as he noticed the excess of the whipped cream stayed at the corner of your lips. “you have something on your lips, love, here let me wipe it.” he said before taking a piece of a napkin before standing up from his seat to lean closer to you.

“i can manage, lix.” you said but he shakes his head, gently wiping it off.

“shush, love,” he argued as you stared at him, of course, he felt your gaze being locked in his direction making him to lean even closer, slowly closing his eyes, initiating a kiss as you did the same. but his teasing side, devoured him for a second, covering your mouth, laughing as he pulled away.

“hey!” you said. “that was embarrassing, i hate you,” you added pretending to be sulky when he moved around to hug you.

“i was just teasing, i’m sorry,” he said, still goofy about your reaction but there is still a frown on your face. “sorry, love,” he added, planting another soft kiss on your lips.

“i should do the same way when i get the chance,” you said, pouting your lips to make him kiss you again and so he did.

JEONGIN : KISSING UNDERNEATH A BLANKET

“you don’t really have to come innie, i swear it’s good, just a few chores,” you said over the line with a basket filled with thin blankets and bedsheets in a free hand. “no, no, mom just went out for groceries, i’m just helping her to hang her laundry outside,”

“it’s just a few minutes awaaay,” your boyfriend whined through the phone. “chan hyung is letting me go right now, i don’t have somewhere else to spend my free time,”

you could envision his whining in his vocal practice room, sliding himself from the swivel chair, letting the keyboard hide his pouty face. chan who was with him awed at how cute their youngest was. being a baby when it comes to you, the other members would tease him about it. rejecting their affection hurt a little bit in a teasing way, but he is enjoying it.

a sigh escaped from your lips in disbelief, jeongin does really have a soft spot for you. can’t even resist his whines and needs. chan would spoil him sometimes, his cuteness gets along the way to make you say yes. in the end, you agreed to make him visit your mother’s house. it wasn’t that far from the city, you needed a company anyway.

“yay! i’m on my way! love you! mwah!” jeongin perked up from his seat as chan watch him go. it was unexpected for him to be this affectionate and even though it was just his voice, you couldn’t imagine how he just blew a kiss over the phone. it was the first time. he didn’t even cringe, and laughed it off, covering his face as he enters the car of his manager to drop him off.

meanwhile, you were in the backyard, hanging the laundry by the string with clips biting on them to prevent it from falling. your boyfriend wasn’t a stranger in your own mother’s house and welcomed himself inside, but the house was empty. your shoes rested by the doorsteps, following the way to the back door and saw you. his arms wrapped around your waist, hugging you from behind. flinching a little due to being surprised, you were expecting him anyway.

“i’m here!” he said, hugging you tightly as he placed a kiss on your cheek.

“hello! how’re your vocal lessons?” you asked.

“the usual,” he shrugged. “i do good all the time.” he smirked making you let out a chuckle.

“yeah yeah,” you said. “now help me hang them, mom should be home in 20.”

“sure, love.” he said, taking a gray with white stripes bedsheet to toss over the string. not a few moments passed by, he was done with 3 sheets and had thought of something. a small evil smile was formed on his lips, slowly hiding himself behind the other sheets. you were almost done after taking care of the first half when your boyfriend suddenly disappeared.

“innie?” you called after emptying the basket. “where are you?”

no one answered, instead, he pushed a sheet aside, showing himself, “boo!”

“what the hell!” you flinched but he just laughed at your priceless reaction. “was that funny?”

“yeah,” he chuckled, placing a soft kiss on your lips. “you were so cute,” he cooed as you giggled in response, with him pulling over a blanket above your heads, enough to cover you two.

“what are you doing?” you asked as he pulled you closer.

“nothing,” he grinned, planting his lips onto yours as you smiled in between sharing a sweet kiss underneath a fresh scented sheet from the laundry.

CHANGBIN : DINNER DATE AT HOME

you were supposed to grab dinner with changbin at a famous restaurant that night but the weather came to oppose you. it rained cats and dogs outside, preventing you to leave. it was unfair that your boyfriend suggested eating there when he told you the food was insanely good. you were too busy to join him the first time. but rest assured when he volunteered to cook instead.

“i’ll let you cook, but don’t burn down my kitchen, okay?” you said as changbin wore his apron, chuckling at the words.

“i learned a lot from minho and felix so i’ll be fine, yes?” he said, trying to reassure your anxiety. he cooked before, it was months ago in their own dorm. the two trying to take him out of the kitchen weren’t very effective, instead, he tried to do it on his own and nearly burned it down to the drain.

“i trust you, okay?” you said.

“of course you do,” he smirked.

taking a seat, you watched him move around, the smell of his cooking was unexpectedly good. maybe felix and minho did a good job, after all, besides, your boyfriend said he’s considering taking a cooking class when he’s free. you admired his commitment and determination, two reasons why you fell in love with changbin. he’s that one person who encourages you to do something you like and be proud of your progress. the one who takes their time to produce a perfect result in the end. he is one of the reasons why you are working hard, not just for your own good but for your future with him. changbin never disappoints you ever since, except with the silly things he does with his group members. but in this relationship, he is serious and disciplined. someone who is sweet, like felix.

his back was facing against you, trying to make everything neat and good as possible. you were waiting for him to get done, he wanted the kitchen on his own so you let him be. it took him a while to have everything served on the table as he stood there, watching you take a bite first to know how they taste. and there, you looked at him.

“is it bad?” he asked, being nervous.

“what do you mean it’s bad? babe, it’s so good! really! you should try it.” you said excitedly, feeding him. it took seconds for him to react and thinking how it was.

“it tastes similar to that restaurant i was talking about,” he smirked in triumph.

“then you did great, we don’t have to go out.” you smiled at him.

“food tastes really good when you’re eating with me, right love?” he asked, taking the seat beside you.

“it sure is,” you said as he kissed your lips as a thank you.

“should we eat?” he asked, taking a spoon full of his love, food, before feeding you himself.

“you just shove it in my mouth,” you muffled.

“shush, don’t talk with your mouth full.” he said, rolling your eyes playfully making him chuckle in response.

“you’re so cute,”

HAN : JOINING HIM TO PLAY VIDEO GAMES

it was after dinner when han decided to play video games as you were taking care of your presentation for the class tomorrow. he promised not to enter your shared bedroom to avoid disturbing you and so he did. you didn’t even realize it was late when you finished your work, and still, you found your boyfriend in the living room, eyes darted on the monitor and hands playing with the controller. you grew familiar with it, he always does this when he has some free time, being sulky as he was earlier, he couldn’t cuddle you for a bit.

you were busy lately, and han was free with schedules because of the break. ever since it started, it became the opposite for the both of you. han being free, and you, being stuck with academics, and vice versa. but the good thing is, you always find time despite the circumstances. you were thankful for him for being the most understanding boyfriend ever, and cuddles wouldn’t be so bad in exchange. a small smile was formed on your lips, watching him from the doorframe of your bedroom. he was so mesmerized that he didn’t even notice your presence as you walk by to the kitchen to grab some popcorn.

meanwhile, you came back and sat next to him, offering the food. “thanks, babe,” he said as he continued playing again.

“you should rest after that game, your eyes are going to hurt,” you said taking a few inside your mouth.

“a little two more, please,” he whined, trying not to lose attention from the screen.

“you need to rest, ji.” you argued, earning a pout from him.

“two more,” he whined again as he won the game, with a smile of victory and at the same time trying to act cute because you were giving him a curfew.

“that’s enough, really,” you said as he gave you another pout. “i won’t cuddle you then,”

“i was just kidding,” he said, dropping the controller and went to hug you instead. you giggled in response, kissing his cheek as he snuggled closer to yours, trying to cuddle. “how’s your presentation, love?”

“it was good, i managed to finish it,” you said, burying for face in the crook of his neck, making him hug you tightly.

“hmm, i’m proud of you,” he smiled, peeking at your tired face, kissing your lips. “i’ll take you to bed hmm? so we could, what, cuddle, maybe?”

“sounds good, but can i play that game with you first?” you asked as he chuckled in response.

“sure, anything for you baby,” he said giving you a kiss before he handed the other free controller.

“thanks, love,” sitting together on the floor, you and han started to pick a game to play. he became more chatty than usual, so expressive when he comes first in the game. it was fun, you miss this kind of moments with him. after a stressful day, there’s him, ready to take them all away and put a smile on your face. you’ll do exactly the same, you treasure your boyfriend so much. he’s that someone you need to protect from the world.

“ji?” you called.

“hmm?” he hummed in response, still, his eyes focused on the screen.

“i just wanted to say that i love you,” you said as his eyes fell down in your direction, forgetting the game, making you win the first round. he smiled, looking at you, he wanted to hear it again.

“say what again, love?” he asked as you turn to look at him.

“i said, i love you,” you answered.

“and you know how much i love you too, yes?” he said planting a soft kiss on your lips.

“i do,” you smiled.

MINHO : CUDDLES TO SLEEP

you went home late that night, your boss asked you to have overtime because of being understaffed. it wasn’t your fault, and he felt sorry about it. you’ve been having delays in going home for a week now and today wasn’t different. your boyfriend came home without your welcoming hug for the nth time. he understands anyway, but he felt lonely every time. cuddles and kisses were a must before he goes to bed, though he had dinner ready.

it was almost 10 o’clock in the evening when he heard the door open with your footsteps, bustling to get in. a lough sigh of relief escaped your lips as you take off your shoes and coat, tossing them on the coat rack beside the door. minho sat up from the couch where he lays to watch something on the television, he was all sleepy and tired from his own work. you even left a text not to wait for you and just go to sleep, but he can’t do that.

“baby?” he called.

“i thought you were asleep?” you asked as he spreads his arms open for you to give him a hug.

“i want to wait for you to come home,” he said. “did you eat?”

“yeah, i went to have dinner with some co-workers before doing overtime,” you answered, hugging him tightly. a warm comfort after an exhausting day.

“hmm, go wash up first okay? i’ll meet you in our bed,” he said kissing your forehead, before letting you go. a sigh escaped his lips when he saw your figure enter the bathroom and turn off the television. calming yourself for a bath helped you ease all the exhaustion from your body. good thing it will be the weekend tomorrow, no work for you. minho can have you all by himself for the whole day.

you entered your room with pajamas on, as your boyfriend rolled over the bed to give space. taking contact with the mattress, you immediately collapsed in his arms as he tackled you for a hug and a fresh duvet from the laundry, above you. minho pulled you even closer, placing a soft kiss on your forehead again, snuggling closer.

“how’s work, love?” you asked, almost a whisper as he kissed the tip of your nose.

“it was good, we’ll just talk about it tomorrow. go to sleep, i know you’re tired,” he said when you gave him a pout. “hmm?”

“i want to talk with you for a bit,” you said when he just chuckled in return.

“what?” you smiled.

“nothing, i’m just happy you’re home now and tomorrow, since we both don’t have work, i can have you now by myself,” he said, giving pepper kisses on your lips. “should we go out on a date?”

“i would love to,” you giggled before pressing your lips against his, ending it with a peck.

“that’s good, so let’s sleep well okay? you did great in your job today, love,” he smiled, kissing your cheek.

“you too, i hope this time lasts for a while, i missed you so much,” you replied, burying your face in his chest.

“i missed you too, good night love,” he said, placing another kiss on your forehead before your eyes fell, letting your body fall into a deep slumber. minho waited for a bit, just to make sure you were fast asleep. and when he sensed you did, he came to whisper something, “i love you,”

all right so pete said that the mv for hold me like a grudge will be a "continuation" of an old video and everyone was like "it's sixteen candles!!" but i wasn't convinced. they confirmed it wasn't sixteen candles and he said it might be their most ambitious in ten years. ten years ago was ybc. i'm not sure if it's a continuation of that either because that was videos, plural.

i suspected it when pete posted that image of him wearing blue contacts on his insta and the teaser they posted for hold me like a grudge makes me suspect it even harder. with the movie poster styled editing, patrick running from pete, and the tagline/lyric "part time soulmate full time problem" really makes me think that there might be credence to what i thought initially

which is that this mv is going to be a continuation of "saturday"

#*making poasts #you guys im so scared im so scared if it is though. im not sure im strong enough.#part time soulmate full time problem. he sang that. OUT LOUD.

theory time lets gø

økay sø with the release øf the backslide teaser and youtube thumbnail, it's pretty clear that elements øf dema are bleeding intø the real world again. this has happened twice beføre in this era alone, with the dema letters and clancy's mask appearing briefly in next semester's mv.

sø what am i getting at here. well, i'm here tø posit the idea that the boundary between trench/dema and our world is nøt as clear as we think it might be. there's a sort øf continuum ør spectrum, with our world øn øne end and trench/dema øn the øther end. between thøse twø points we have things like 5/6 blurryface mvs (honestly yøu cøuld lump hds in there as a bridge), where we have characters from the lore and whø were created før that storyline being in and interacting with the world we live in, ESPECIALLY in lane boy. chlorine, the hype, and choker alsø fit intø this category, and nøw with clancy we bring next semester and backslide intø this quasi-lore gray area.

there are ways tø travel between the twø worlds, and there are places where pieces øf the story can break through the boundaries between the worlds, ør maybe places where the boundary isn't that thick. remember, tyler said there are places in trench and dema where he has learned nøt tø gø tø anymøre. there are places in that world where some characters, like blurry, have strønger jurisdiction than in øther places, and vice versa. who's tø say this cøncept can't apply tø the real world as well, ør well as "real" as the worlds presented in these mvs can be. certain places where yøu shouldn't gø anymøre, places that have been overtaken by a perceived enemy ør threat, and then there are safer places where yøu have control.

if i were tø put everything øn a continuum, i'd dø it like this:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

additional theory øn the backslide mv, and there is a 99.9999% chance I'm entirely wrøng abøut this, but maybe the definition øf "relapsing intø bad habits" is meant tø show us høw its easy tø break between the boundary between the twø worlds, ør høw øne can fall intø a place they don't want tø gø tø anymøre. maybe as it goes øn, møre and møre things will start tø bleed through, tø the point where it gets hard tø tell what's "reality" and what's trench's world. watch me be wrøng and its nøthing like that, that's usually høw it goes.

So I've been waiting for this Käärijä x Erika Vikman collaboration for a long time... Since the first "evidence" of them being together in studio last March, so almost a year.

Also the timing of the release suggests that K really is proud of this song and wants to showcase it. I mean it was clear that Käärijä would get to perform a new song in this years umk final, any song. Umk alone is huge and when adding the viewing numbers from Levyraati the exposure Ruoska is getting this Saturday is big. In the best tv-watching time Kärika will be performing the song live for first time and at the same time another tv-chanel will be premiering the mv for it. The fact that Warner is so invested in this song that there will be music video directed by Viivi Huuska, got my expectations really high. (and the fact that I love both K and E)

After twenty something listens I got the need to ramble about my thoughts once again (under keep reading)...

I love that even in paper neither of them is the featuring artist but this is their joint song. It doesn't sound like typical rap song with female vocalist singing few pop lines. K said in the live that they had this song ready when they asked E if she would like to do a collab. Story didn't tell how much the song changed during the process or if they already while writing treated this as a possible collab song. But I think this doesn't sound like a song screaming "add feature artist here". If they had made this song just K song I think it would have worked absolutely fine. But adding Erika definately makes it better. Erikas singing is strong and I like how her voice is mixed in the back adding depth. Also I couldn't imagine any other finnish female artist than Erika singing those lyrics. The song doesn't sound like K x E, it sounds like Kärika.

Their dynamic in the song hints that K is the one enjoying the pain and E is the life doing the whipping. (well maybe K's inner voice doing some of the whipping because that's just how it works when you are really down)

0:16! That's when I knew I would love this.I'm just imagining how hard this will go live. (Jukka!). I like that this is not as soft as some of the teasers were, this hits hard. I'm getting whipped here!!

I'm a succer for clever metaphores, wisely used pop culture/sport refrences and word plays. That's propably why I like both Käärijäs and Erikas music so much. When I was listening to the lyrics I believed everything Erika sang, but even before checking who had been named as songwriters I knew that her usual team wasn't going to be there. Lyrics were so K coded and I could just smell Sonny there.

Once again some parts of this are monsterous to translate as it contains pop culture/sport references that don't translate just by translating the words.

I enjoy their transitions through words and metaphores. Like "Lunta on tullut tupaan niin paljon et tarvii sukset (~gotten so much snow in to the house that I need skis)", lunta tupaan litarally translates as snow into the house, but it's a finnish slang idiom for getting objections/obstackles and I'm not sure what the corresponding idiom would be in English that would still fit with needing skis. And skis must be there as the skis are transition to the next line "On luokkaa Kari-Pekka nää ahdistukset (~At Kari-Pekka level with these anxieties)" without sport context Kari-Pekka would be just a random name but with skis and the "hemo virtaukset" I'm pretty sure it's a reference to Kari-Pekka Kyrö the coach of finnish national ski team during Lahti 2001 when the largest and most well known doping scandal in Finnish sporthistory ever happened. (Okay, this might get lost by younger finnish listeners also as it's been over 20 year, but believe me the scars of those events haven't fully healed yet and there sure was hell of a lot whipping done during that episode.) So great job there whipping some old wounds too.

This goes on with the "hemo virtaukset". Hemo isn't actually a word (edit later: it is in Oulu dialect!) but himo is and while it literally translates as lust it's used as a slang word for plenty (not the best English word) and as the drug used in Lahti 2001 was called Hemohes the wordplay here is pretty clever. With heno being real word in Oulu dialect, this is even better word play.

And the Riesen ad reference! I'm feeling really old now but I hated that ad: "..Next you propably want one of my Riesens. But you didn't use to like those before". But the way the Riesen, Kinder and the "but you didn't like that before" is used in the lyrics is really clever actually. There's room for speculation.

Side note. I was pretty sure, just by listening to the voice, that it's Sonny who is saying those funny back voices like "ja mennään Vikmaniin (~and then we go to Vikman)" and the "ethän sinä siitä ennen pitänyt (~ but you didn't like that before)". But on the other hand I could imagine these being something Allu would be saying to K's ear monitors. So I'm not sure anymore.

And I'm not even touching that line with Justin Bieber in this post (it's pandoras box for me). I'd just like to know if these 3 lines are exactly the same it was last March

Hey shaz,

I definitely think that Jikook will be loud af when they get back from MS, or as loud as they can be. Major things will start adding up and making sense in our usual subtle (ISH) breadcrumb way.

But I suspect it'll be a new chapter for BTS, as a whole, on the relationship front. The boys are extremely successful, only getting older, and I think a lot of chapter 2 was them prepping the fandom to see them maturely as well. It's highly likely some of the guys are starting to think long-term both career-wise and family-wise (they're pretty young actually but the idol life moves FAST)

With how famous they are, though, (idols in general), it's so risky to make relationships public unless you're really serious. Read somewhere that they're pushed to keep things secret as much as possible unless it's like a marriage announcement? I'm curious, how do you think the guys will handle this? Cause they're known to break stereotypes and in a way, they could be tired of the airtight romance lock..they're not exactly teenagers sneaking around anymore

Take Taennie (or just Tae with any partner), all this time they had their reasons for keeping it on the down-low, and I suspect partially with the engagement shipping brings in for the company. But I feel like everyone's in new phase of their lives now, so idk if those reasons would still apply to push ships in 2025+ content.

Would love to hear what you think and if you guys know how older K-pop groups handled marriages and transitioning from that ''teenage/young adult, flirty image"?

I honestly believe BTS will be the ones to pave the way when it comes to normalising Idols having rlships. They start everything and others follow. I mean, watch other groups start enlisting together. Boracity did a video about how BTS paved the way

youtube

And then also these 2 videos about things BTS started and others followed.

So I can picture the dating thing going on this list. They've never been into fanservice much anyway to begin with and like u said, 2022 & 2023 was them reminding us they are adults. So high chances are when they come back they might be done pretending they don't use their private parts.

V was the first ever idol to somewhat publicly out his rlship. Yes, he later backtracked 🙄😒 but still, he will go down in History for having had the guts to do it in the first place. But damn this man has some shitty fans. Have y'all seen the reactions since the fri(end)s teaser came out? He may have the most fans out of all 7 but they are just horrible. Absolutely horrible. Jimin had so much support when he had a woman in his MV... Heck I don't even remember anyone giving JK shit for his female features but V.... gosh. Do these people even care about him?

Anyway. I digress.

Back to your question. I am not really a Kpop fan, just a BTS fan. So the only person I know is Taeyung. When we first found out Jimin was gonna do a song with him, people were calling him problematic. Turns out his only crime was getting married. That's literally his biggest scandal. Fucking SK, man. 🤦🏽‍♀️

This thing of idols treating fans as their girlfriends is super problematic. I imagine BTS realised that and stopped doing it the older they got. You bring up a good point; It's not just Jikook who will change when they get back, the other members too. Jikook will stop hiding, sure. But... I wonder which other members will do the same. Whatever the case, I'm all strapped in and ready for the ride.

Seven, the greatest misdirect ever?

Well they are definitely trying to keep us guessing.

When Big Hit first announced Seven at the end of June it was described as an "invigorating summer song" that will make listeners feel the full breadth of Jungkook's charm. Since the song and the MV were filmed in California people started thinking it might be something like this (or maybe that was just me).

Then we found out that Han So Hee was going to be in it the idea of a Creed style action video was discussed or even 007 days a week.

Then Jungkook dropped his concept photos and the sexy ship was sailing.

On Monday, we had him in the studio with lyrics interpreted (at least by me) as loving you right and seven days a week.

Finally today the MV teaser drops and JK and Han So Hee are in a restaurant having the mother of all arguments. I mean they bring the chandelier down it's so intense.

JK looking pretty contrite here. What did you do man and what are you going to do to make up for it?

My stab at the lyrics, "weight of the world on your shoulders" is clear and it could be "I catch your waist and ease your mind" as people are suggesting but I also hear "I guess you're wasting ......... mind".

Then there is the feat artist, Latto who is new to me. Her most successful song to date is Big Energy from last year. When Billboard asked her about it she said “I basically took this masculine, trendy ‘big d–k energy’ quote from Twitter and made it a thing where all genders can have ‘big energy’ and take it deeper than just [something] sexual”. She's got loads of attitude and given this and the other videos I've seen, I tend to agree with those who think she may be fielding the explicit in the explicit version of Seven.

youtube

So what to make of all this? Well I think the restaurant scene is probably a misdirect. It won't be all about a break up. It could be about reminding someone of how a love story started, all the good things that happened, the affection and support and promising to find the way back to that, loving right, seven days a week. We may even get some dancing and JK and Han So Hee walking off down the beach into the sunset at the end. Just some fun guessing, we'll find out on Friday.

So, Bad Omens just released a comic teaser AND a music video for Just Pretend; Noah said TDOPOM is a story he came up with and that all the MVs are connected in some way. With some Twitter friends we did some diggin', and we came to some conclusions...

These are a comic pannel and the last scene in Just Pretend. M.I.N.D. is an organization of some sort that works with artificially-induced memories. From what we can see, Noah is using M.I.N.D.'s technology to in some way "revive" memories. As we can see in Concrete Jungle, they are perhaps an organization or mafia ruled by the elite and rich people, and they use the memory simulation and inductions to make people escape the post-apocalyptic world that is The Death Of Peace Of Mind.

The story starts in District 9, as seen in The Grey. Perhaps the setting is M.I.N.D's headquarters.

In Nowhere To Go, we see a person, seemingly one of M.I.N.D's robots, apparently doing something buisness related. This whole MV and song could be related to a contradiction from part of Bad Omens to M.I.N.D., like a rebel yell sort of thing. It makes sense too when you read the lyrics.

Going back to Just Pretend, it seems as if Noah wanted to revive and recover old, happy memories of himself and a past relationship. At first you wouldn't think it's him, but this is confirmed in the credits of the song.

At first, it looks like everything was going well, but all of a sudden, theres a failure in the "Sim". This could indicate that the memory simulator failed -> meaning that everything he was looking at was probably fake, false made up happy memories. What could've happened is the relationship he was in was toxic and overall bad, and with the simulations, he wanted to escape in some way and convince himself he was happy with her.

Noah seems in pain when all this happens; this could mean he's purposely replaying memories to hurt himself; or maybe just to revive them because he can't live without her, even if they are sad and horrible memories, he needs to live them with her again.

He then disconnects and destroys everything (supposedly a cameo to Artificial Suicide, where everything is destroyed, and we have a computer/hospital-y setting, with tubes and cables). When he destroys everything, the scene changes to a hospital one, where doctors are trying to resurrect someone who's in organ failure -> This could mean, when Noah disconnects himself, he is also disconnecting the other part. — Though it could also mean that he disconnected himself from the system because the girl allegedly died when she was shot by some intruder. (And now that I think about it, that masked intruder could be one of M.I.N.D's workers. I really don't know why he would want to shoot the girl, though. Let me know your thoughts!)

Another curious fact is that the hand in the end of the video has the same bracelet as the one in the start, meaning that the gunshot didn't kill her, instead left her in a sort of coma.

TL;DR -> M.I.N.D is an elite mafia organization that helps people escape a post-apocalyptic world with memory simulations and inductions, and Noah uses their technology to try to get back his memories and past life with a girl he loved to death. It could be related to today's world with technology and how it gives us an escape, being it negative or positive.

— • —

I personally think this is an amazing story, Noah is big brain he's so cool, I'd love to see what goes on in his mind when he's writing this stuff

#bad omens #bad omens cult #tdopom #the death of peace of mind #noah sebastian #LORE EVERYONE WOOO #If u have something else to add feel free to rb w ur thoughts!

Everybody's watching him,

But he's looking at you ▸ Ch:1

Seokmin ✗ staff!reader ▸ mini series

꒰☆꒱ Genre: Fluff + workplace romance?

꒰☆꒱ Warning: Close proximity, suggestive dialogue, he touches your thigh, missed any lmk.

꒰☆꒱ Inspo: THIS! & teaser!

꒰☆꒱ Wc: 426

"Seokmin-sshi? Is there anything I can do for you?"

His intense gaze on you softened as a thin-lipped smile played on his lips...oh, OH he was smirking, not smiling. Even though it hadn't been long since you were transferred to SEVENTEEN's staff and crew unit, you'd never seen Seokmin look at anyone like this.

Eyes dopey as he drunk in your confused face and lips forming a mean...smirk?? Since when did 'Mr. sunshine and smiles' know how to do that?

Seated across from you in his make-up chair, his lids were smeared in dark ombre eye shadow, and lips coral from the S2ND tint he endorsed. He leaned a tad bit closer to you.

"Oh there's a lot you can do for me love."

Eyes flickering to your lips for a nanosecond as he lets out a dry chuckle. Your eyes go wide as you picture all the endless possible insinuations behind that statement.

"Wh-what exactly do you mean?"

You stutter.

Within a blink of an eye, he had moved closer to you. His warm breath almost fanning your heated face. His veiny hand languidly crept up to your thigh to delicately stroke your smooth skin.

"Maybe you can start wi-"

He was cut off by the photoshoot director's voice that echoed through the megaphone.

"Dokyeom-ah! We're ready for you! Can we start now?"

Retracting himself from your personal space he let out an exasperated sigh. Glancing over at the set that was prepared just for him, he looks back at you.

"You're thinking too much. I'll be back, yeah?"

He spoke in a low and dangerous voice, sending jitters down your spine. Letting his eyes scan your figure one last time, he briskly got up and strode away while grabbing the thin-rim glasses which were a prop for the shoot.

Now that you were by yourself you tried to decode his words. Not like there was much to decode. But this wasn't the first time he'd said something as brazen. He's been doing it ever since your official welcome dinner. The day you met the team and were introduced as the new management division head, under you were the members' individual managers. You often tagged along to photoshoots, MV shoots, and sometimes interviews and other media sites. Giving you several chances to be around the members and also giving Seokmin opportunities to taunt you and shamelessly flirt.

Of course, you've had to tolerate flirtatious behavior at work and even outside work, but none of them had this impact on you. You had initially brushed it off as him just being curious, but things were a lil' past curious now, weren't they?

My first mini-series guys! Show some love!

My transition into a smut blog? Idk.

How do you wanna see this go? LMK in the reblog tags.

JK the crowned 👑 spoiler king

cr./to the creators of the media used in this post.

Touched on this a little yesterday here:

He really is.

The king of spoilers.

And he seems to also be the gift that keeps on giving too, lol. The layers upon layers of his spoilers are being revealed to us slowly but surely. Can't wait to see if he has more in store for us.

So, what did he give us so far?

JK playing JVKE's Golden Hour, showing us the JM tattoo (lest us forget closing with "your the love of my life").

Next we have him telling us:

🐰 I want to be a bartender. I think it's going to be fun.

Next he does the butterfly out of nowhere with his hair tie.

Did I mention him coming back for live no. 4 on white day, half an hour before SMF pt. 2 teaser was landing to tell us to look forward to it?

And finally, well, for now that we know of that is, we have his cooking live with a pre-prepared guitar to play Letter for us. JK, not the one that did the guitar playing for the song, made the effort of learning the cords and playing it for us just before the album and the hidden track, a song that he took part in, landed.

He keeps on doing this, JK.

But not with any of the other members.

So, JM spoiler king will be the more accurate description in his case.

Funny how JK keeps doing this with the one member big chunks of this fandom think he's no longer close with. All while he is radio silent about the others.

What was it that JK told us in the past?

Well, obviously there has been a lot of concentration going on with these spoilers...

None of the other members received this treatment from JK, not even Hobi, whom JK is undeniably super close with.

JK will dance and laugh and tease the others after their releases, but no spoilers were given, and especially no lives just sitting and watching said members songs, shows, compilations just for the sake of that alone. Fully entranced. Unwilling to even look at and totally uninterested in the comments during said live.

Only JM.

And I'll raise you another one.

JK knows.

These spoilers come out of knowledge.

JK knows JM's songs, JM's projects, JM's choreos, JM's MVs before we do.

And you'd say, "well, they are part of the band, no?" But you see, first of all JM being super busy preparing for his first solo album release wouldn't be in touch with them all on a daily basis and definitely not in a manner that they all know the comings and goings of his projects/songs/choreos/MVs. For example, Yoongi didn't even know about Letter.

So yeah, JK knew and knows all these details, down to SMF pt. 2 choreo, down to the set of Like crazy MV and JM's bartending duties there. All before it landed. All before we knew.

To sum it up with a nice little bow:

TKKs are right. Ex Jikookers are right. Those two, most definitely drifted apart, have zero to do with each other, don't even like each other anymore. So much so they can't stand to be next to each other, in each other's presence nor talk to each other. JK's supposed vocals on Letter are AI, it's all a big fat lie they came up with to placate the Jikookers that were rioting in the streets. And hugging, eww, totally out of the question. No hugging allowed. If they communicate it's through Tae, JK's new boyfie. Cause Tae, he gone and dumped Jenni's skinny ass the second JK became available.

Hell nah!!!

But because I already went there, talk about changing the subject, lol, I was sent this clip today from my daughter:

This:

People, there you have it.

#Jikook #Kookmin #Minkook #Jungkook #JK #Jimin #JM #JK king spoiler #more like the JM king spoiler

I'm curious about your analysis or even just your take in the meaning of Guilty (both MV and song together as a whole). Along with the teaser/trailer and the mention of Bataille's book, the whole thing seems to be a complicated onion with so many contradicting facets. But if you ignore all of that and just watch the MV, then it is rather a straightforward "hurt people hurt people" and some Lord of the Flies reference. But my head keeps thinking it's more convoluted than that lol. Would you tell me what you think the MV is about? :D

My initial take is pretty straightforward but completely undercooked, lol. This is my unvarnished and un-researched take.

I think that the concept has to do with sin and behaviour outside of expected moral bounds. I think this is where the eroticism comes into play. The dance involves self touching, which can be a hint towards the "sin" of masturbation. His character seems to be held in a place where he is tightly controlled and conditioned, and he experiences physical abuse as a form of behaviour control. It seems like he could be in a place where children are taken to correct "sinful" behaviour, perhaps to correct gender dysphoria, or androgyny, or homosexuality, sins of masturbation, promiscuity, et cetera.

Some of the George Bataille quotes I've seen centre on how eroticism and violence and death are linked. I think the eroticism here is less surface or obvious. People expected this sort of Madonna style sexuality of his previous work, but that's not what we're getting here. It's taking criminal to a whole different level.

There is a link between the sensuality of violence and that of traditional eroticism. This is a bit mindbending. The best example I can think to explain right now is David Cronenberg's Crash. Passion and eroticism are linked literally with the bodily experience of a car crash, its violence and trauma. The violent climax of the car crash is likened to the ecstasy of orgasm. In Taemin's Guilty, the ecstasy of orgasm is linked to a different type of harm to the body and the mind. At the very beginning of the video, how he runs away and has a sort of fit, it's rather orgasmic. I think he's showing us the ecstasy of harm and losing control in many parts.

The video is more complex than it seems on the surface, I think. On first watch, I think it's easy to say okay well he's breaking free of something blah blah blah. I think over the coming days when we actually look at the details closer, we'll see a lot more there.

The entire sequence in this outfit and its setting hasn't been touched upon. The dance that he does in thus setting reminds me of the just me and you contemporary dance performance. I do think there is the struggle of gender underpinning the entire concept, but also a struggle with sexuality and the corporeality of eroticism that so many find sinful.

In quite a few concepts, he has explored the idea of ecstasy through being destroyed or destroying oneself. I think this is another iteration of that. Another exploration. And I think he's done a brilliant job of elucidating that ecstasy in a new way that is really centred on a unique contemporary dance style. many people have said that he's able to tell a story through his dance and I think this is another great example of that. He's merged cinema and dance into a narrative form to the point where almost feels like it's own language.

I'm not sure where I fall in the Lord of the flies references anymore, but surely there are some present. And we see his character becoming worshipped. But I think there's also a consideration as to what is real and what is not and how many narratives are present in this piece of cinema. Perhaps certain sequences are the daydreams of someone locked up. They could be the fantasies of someone who is not free. Does he escape? Does he get liberated? Those are interesting questions to consider.

Jimin, dude, man, bro, wtf? What in actual goddamn fuck???

Listen, there like 3 Jimin solo songs I like and I am not a big fan of some of his vocal choices but let me tell you I was really hyped and hooked when the teasers came out. The drama, war anthem-ness, the grandeur of everything, I liked it all. So I was quite disappointed when the news of him rapping came out because I've heard him rap before and it was bad, and I especially was reluctant to watch the whole MV after I heard a snippet of it on my tl (the stylistically autotuned rap part, yeah). I was afraid to be disappointed after such great teasers.

despite my fears I finally watched the MV... fuck... WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK PARK JIMIN??? It's so damn good! Even the rap part??? I LOVED it. Separately it doesn't sound very nice but combined and mixed it somehow works well. And his stylistic vocal choices, the way he changes his voice all the time, it's amazing, it keeps you hooked and anticipating what comes next, it keeps surprising you, even shocked at some point. I haven't been a fan of bts songs since the fake love era (even black swan is not IT for me, it's really good but not THAT great) so it says a lot. this one is easily one of my faves EVER in their discography.

The song is a statement. A grand opening. Empowering.

BTW, the song is totally a type of song that you would play in your car while driving around with your friends and singing-shouting along. Wow, just wow.

Ask 2: Opinions on set me free pt. 2 seem to be divided in some circles 👀👀👀 ofc because of the vocal processingz that’s a common complaint for so many years already lol. I mean Pdogg is the main producer of the album so idk what they expected… personally i love the song and i think the vocal processing works but i think i can understand some people have different tastes and expectations… at the end of that day it was a choice consciously chosen by jimin and his producers. It’s there for a reason imo. I’m happy though that jimin really tried something different!!!!! So many people were expecting a ballad for this title instead we got a banger lol… and like you said Yoongi’s style is obvious even when he doesnt have a hand in making it directly… now i’m so curious what like crazy will sound like!!!! But i wanna ask if youll be making a post for set me free bpp???

***

Posting these two asks now because my inbox is already getting out of control and between getting zero sleep and a flight I've got to catch in exactly 73 minutes, I'd rather briefly get out some thoughts now, regardless of if they're coherent or not, because I don't know when next I'll have time.

Hi Anon(s),

I don't think I'll ever write a full review for this song, because there's a lot about it I don't want to talk about, a lot I don't want to share and would rather keep to myself.

That said,

Everything about Set Me Free Pt. 2 is right up my alley and objectively brilliant. Every single thing about it: the melody, the autotune, the chants, the rap, the fact the whole thing plays out in the same prison, the way Jimin uses his body as a canvas for inscriptions that only enhance his storytelling, the performance.

I have nothing to say to anyone who doesn't like this or that about it. Rapper Jimin was in my wishlist for PJM1 so... and I'm a hiphop head who listens to Travis Scott-type autotune at least a couple times a day. Plus I've got Yoongi, that nasty, autotune-loving, foul-mouthed cat as my bias. Joon and Hobi aren't that much nicer either. Anybody reading this to hear me say something critical about this song should wake up and smell the matcha.

Some things I want to gush about:

First of all, the instrumentals. PDogg went stuuuuuuuuuuuupid on this track goddamn.

This song is pure trap. An orchestral, haunting trap anthem is what Set Me Free Pt. 2 is.

It is so sick. So maddening in how good it is. No wonder he was so excited about Jimin ending k-pop in 2023, the song he produced is easily the best produced Korean song so far and believe me when I tell you that is really saying something, because the competition this year has been stiff.

The Vocals

Jimin's voice is the most emotive in BTS. That's one reason I love it. Another reason is because nobody's vocals in BTS, in k-pop, fuck, in all of Korea, drips as much sauce as Park Jimin's. I've said before, Jimin sounds inhuman almost, I describe his voice as serrated steel coated in honey and wrapped in silk because it sounds distinctly metallic, but can be oddly soothing. But with Jimin, there's a tone he takes sometimes that has this undercurrent of nasty, of unapologetic vulgarity, and in Set Me Free Pt. 2, he uses autotune to amplify it to brain-piercing perfection.

PDogg brilliantly uses autotune to aid Jimin in sending a message.

The shrillest, most distorted we hear Jimin is when he raps after the first chorus, and that's by design. The use of autotune in this song is intentional, and we can see this because every time it ratchets up, Jimin is being crude and uninhibited - as though it's a second voice, an alter-ego, or Jimin himself speaking the deepest truest thoughts he holds, pushing them to the surface after suppressing them for nine years.

PDogg has used this sort of autotune on Jimin's voice before, in the second chorus of Black Swan (timestamp: 2:24 - 2:50)

youtube

It's hidden in the backing vocals in Black Swan but felt in full cathartic force in SMF pt 2. And it feels incredible.

Stream:

youtube

The Message/Lyrics

This is the part I don't want to write about because I'd rather keep my thoughts to myself. Not because I have special insight or think I've discovered something no one else sees or whatever, but because it's the only thing about this song that stayed within my expectations of who I think Jimin is. Plus I'm certain various interpretations will be offered by many other bloggers, so I'm okay sitting this one out.

That's the most I'll say now.

#I hate complaining but I'm tired and need to catch a flight #I'll check in with the discourse and your other asks soon as I can sneak in 5 hrs of sleep #Listened to Jimin all night and I don't regret a single minute #He's here #jimin #park jimin #set me free pt.2
