M a new army and new taekooker. I love your blog so much. Very difficult to find takook content with rational perspective. I was minding my business and commenting in yt video and suddenly one jikook shipper came and attacking me with things like we are delulus and jk hickeyoment is true and how jk told in jikook live that if jimin leaves he will pilost a selca with bite mark and when they and hickey were trending they posted a selca together. Is all of this true my heart is crying over it

Well, the hickey thing is "true" insomuch as Jungkook showed up at rehearsal with a bruise on his neck and Jimin told the members, staff, and cameras that he had bitten Jungkook the night before when they were drinking and Jungkook was messing with him. Basically, he said that they'd been drinking, Jungkook picked him up and spun him around, Jimin told him to stop but he didn't, so Jimin bit him. That's the story as Jimin told it, and Jungkook later repeated it back when, a little while after that, one of the staff running a camera asked him how he got the bruise.

None of that is especially out of the ordinary -- we know they don't have much in the way of physical boundaries, and while it's true that neck-biting isn't exactly typical platonic behavior, the entire maknae line and Hobi already do things that seem a little out of the ordinary. Imagine what they could get up to when alcohol is involved.

I've discussed my thoughts about this in my post about Jikook, but they can be summarized as: I pretty much figure we can take their words at face value here and assume this story is the truth (because otherwise I doubt Big Hit would have put it in their content), and if we were to assume that it isn't the truth, that it's a fabrication to cover up a hickey, then I don't see why we would have to assume that the hickey came from Jimin in the first place. If Jimin is already making up the story, why not also that aspect of it?

The same can be said for the other bite mark instance you've mentioned. Yes, Jimin, Jungkook, and Jin did a V Live together in a hotel (the iconic, "Hey stob it!!" live lol, I believe) and Jimin was making to leave. Jungkook grabbed him and told him not to go, and threatened (?) him to get him to stay on the live by saying that if he left, Jungkook would post a selfie (of himself, alone) where people think it looks like he has a hickey. (People know this because he did eventually post it by the way.)

From what I understand, a lot of Jikookers think the fact that Jungkook threatened Jimin with this means that Jimin had something to do with the hickey itself. But why? Even if that were true, Jungkook just posting the selfie wouldn't have given anyone that information. If Jungkook believed the threat of posting that particular picture would keep Jimin on the live (which is in itself not suspicious -- the guys often want to keep each other on the lives, I would guess because it makes them feel less awkward if there are other people there to help fill the time), then it was because he knew Jimin wouldn't want him posting a photo of himself with a hickey, in general.

Could that be because they were in a relationship at the time and Jimin didn't want anyone else seeing it? I guess so. But for one thing, you don't typically leave marks on someone and then not want other people to see them lol. And also, that's only one possibility. The other is that he was concerned about their squeaky clean image and didn't want Jungkook messing with it. I guess we can all decide for ourselves which possibility we think is more likely.

As for the last thing you mentioned, that when Jikook and "hickey" were trending, the two of them posted a selfie together, that I don't know about. I've never heard that before, but that doesn't mean it isn't true. Personally, even if it is true, I'm not sure how much it matters or how likely it is that it had anything to do with the trending hashtags, especially if it happened during the time when they were in the habit of posting together a lot more. But for all I know, that's true, I really have no idea.

Ultimately, there's a ton of content out there, and the best thing I can tell you or anyone else is just to look at it, you know? I appreciate the chance to talk about my own opinions on these topics, but it's not like I'm a holy font of BTS shipping knowledge lol. There's original content, Taekook content, Jikook content -- anything you could possibly want -- and I feel like the best thing anyone can do is just watch it for themselves and draw their own conclusions. If you check out Jikook content and it makes you doubt Taekook, that's okay

But you also might find that if you check it out for yourself, the relationship Jikook actually have presents itself very clearly to you as different from the one you see between Taekook, and you won't have to feel this anxiety about individual moments that other shippers bring to your attention. Of course it's also okay if you're just not interested in doing that, but I just feel like when it comes down to it, individual moments can never really compare to the overall sense of an entire relationship, because specific moments can always be obscured, talked around, or lacking crucial context.

Exo's titles ranking

Now it's been a long road for me to stan them i won't lie. I used to be in the dark but now I see!

Tempo: not only the best title track but also their best album. This song is divine, pure excellence of the gods. The intelligence that it got, the depth, the acappela part that even locals know about. EXO was just flexing their vocalists the whole song. I have no idea how SM put this masterpiece out and allow songs like Sticker, Savage and co out ??? What happened to quality ?

Obsession: how to spell perfection. Showed that Exo even with 5 members (+Sehun) could deliver excellence. And it's their strength always being exo no matter how many. Also the concept is out of this world like SM were truly in their bags with those evil vers.

Call Me Baby : EXO was at their lowest...fat, nasty and losing members left and right. Career in shambles. They came on this bitch mad as hell!!! Also we should start a petition to have them sing call me daddy as they should originally be!

Monster : Shawty you got it! There is hearing this song then listening to it with good headphones and it changes your life.

Overdose: OH SHE WANTS ME OH SHE GOT ME OH SHE HURTS ME KOREAN KOREAN SOMEONE CALL THE DOCTOR KOREAN KOREAN KOREAN OVERDOSE. Note on the mv: they were given 20 000 wons, a box and a dream

Love Shot: it took me some times to appreciate it at it's juste valeur but you know in moments of despairs you go back to listen to shit and get hit by pure talent. "People come and people go" even Shakespeare couldn't come up with that! Bonus: they looked extra fine and got everyone and their grannies in suit doing a cover of it #ILove***Shot

Growl: You know songs like that, they are stories that people can identify with. You know what I mean, anybody. Children were singing the song at graduations. At weddings. At funerals. Sm put those bitches in a basement and made money on their back shamelessly (I know that people might not agree with this placement but it's my opinion period.)

Lotto : all of this for a yt girl ? Regardless, #IStandWithAutotune LO LO TO TO

Mama : CARELESS, CARELESS, SHOOT, ANONYMOUS ANONYMOUS, HEARTLESS, MINDLESS, NO ONE WHO CARE ABOUT ME ? I love this song but they got ATE by the Youth With You (Xinwen the woman you are!) girls! It's no longer an exo song to me.

Ko Ko Bop: Kai wasn't showing his nigerian's heritage for nothing. Something for the summer, for the girls to have fun. It's indeed noise music but when you put the right amount I can stand it. IT GOES DOWN DOWN BABAY

Don't fight this feeling: uuuuumm it's not even that bad, it's just extremely weak next to their majestic discography

Love me right : Shawty imma party til the sun down is the reason I can't stand this song. Blame Sehun for this placement. I am a firm believer that he should only say e x o in every song. Some people are in groups for their voice (not him), their dancing skills (not him), their variety abilities (not him) or their visual (I will give him that I can't be a hater full-time lol). He should stand in the back and be pretty that's it #NoTalentNoMic

Power : stadium music, nothing more nothing less.

Universe: by courtoisie I included it. One thing about it, is that exo will always shows off amazing vocals. Still a snooze feast (not everyone can have ballads as excellent as T-ara's). Have to add that I saw a comment saying "Sehun's voice is so angelical [...]" and let's not lie to ourselves ladies and gays.

Wolf: probably stray kids' blueprint (minus the vocals). A crime against humanity. If you asked me between being stuck in an elevator with Leeteuk, Shindong and Heechul for 10 hours or listen to this song for less than 1 hour I would choose suju...
