Boys Planet Episode 3-4 Recaps: Burn It Up
Aka “They Aren’t The Ones Who Are Currently Good.”
Tumblr media
If you’re following the MNET show Boys Planet, you probably know by now that the editors are extremely irritating. For a song “mission” like this, they show 2-3 minute montages of some of the teams practicing, then fast forward to show time passing, then make it look like the performance will start any moment, and then have a lengthy flashback before we finally get to see the performance. 
So, I made a main recap that takes you through episodes 3 and 4 in a linear way, but then when it comes to focusing on each team, I’ll put all those thoughts in a separate post so you can keep the storylines straight. This post covers the Burn It Up teams' rehearsal and performance.
The Teams
K team:
Leader: Park Min Seok
Other members: 
Choi Seung Hun, Jeon Ho Young, Jung Ho Jin, Jung Se Yun, Park Gwan Young 
Tumblr media
Park Gwan Young is 22, auditioned with Lullaby, was ranked 61st and then 92nd, and has been 2 stars the whole time.
Jung Se Yun is 15, auditioned with Damdadi, was ranked 68th and then 85th, and has been 0 stars the whole time. 
Jung Ho Jin is 20, auditioned with Lullaby, was ranked 48th and then 68th, and has been 1 star the whole time.
Choi Seung Hun is 14, the youngest in the whole show; he auditioned with Love Scenario, was ranked 46th and then 52nd, and has fallen from 1 star to 0 stars. He’s a former child actor who has been in 30+ dramas. 
Jeon Ho Young is 18, auditioned with Love Scenario, was ranked 81st and then 80th, and has fallen from 2 stars to 1 star. He’s also an actor. 
Park Min Seok is 20, auditioned with The Real, was ranked 64th and then 84th, and has fallen from 2 stars to 1 star. He was a lead vocal in The Real and did a good job -- that whole team was good.  So it’s a bummer to see that he ended up a 1-star. 
We can also see teammate Jung Hwan Rok there -- he has three stars -- but he left the show prior to its airing. He’s a member of the nugu group “withus.” No reason was given for him leaving the show that I know of, but perhaps he was unthrilled about being on this team of leftovers. 
G team
Leader: Xuan Hao
Other members: 
Yutaka, Chen Ren Yu, Hyo, Kei, Qui Sheng Yang, Riku, Xuan Hao
Tumblr media
Top row: Chen Ren Yu (in yellow), Riku (in green)
The four sitting in a semi-circle around white-haired leader Xuan Hao: Qui Sheng Yang, Yutaka, Hyo, Kei
Tumblr media
Yutaka is 23, didn’t get to audition, was ranked 57th and then 54th, and has risen from 0 stars to 1 star.  We saw him in a segment on the poorly trained 0 zero stars at their vocal lesson, in episode 2 or 3, and we saw him making up his own choreo during the star level test.
Hyo is 21, didn’t get to audition, was ranked 62nd and then 9th, and has risen from 0 stars to 2 stars.  We also saw him in that 0 stars vocal lesson segment. 
Kei is 16, auditioned with Conduct Zero, was ranked 76th and then 83rd, and has been 2 stars the whole time. In my notes on his audition, I thought he overdanced a little bit, but that I thought he deserved 3 stars.
Qui Sheng Yang is 21, auditioned with Tiger Inside, was ranked 88th and then 70th, and has fallen from 2 stars to 1 star.  I thought he overdanced a bit in his audition. 
Chen Ren Yu is 19, auditioned with Tiger Inside, was ranked 59th and then 56th, and has fallen from 2 stars to 1 star.  In my write up on his audition, I said he did really well, writing, “I thought his dancing was purposeful, but sort of calm, and his singing was really good. On key, on rhythm, pleasant, all that good stuff. I’m rooting for him, and curious to see how MNET will screw him over for no real reason.”
Riku is 18, auditioned with Maniac, was ranked 93rd (last!) and then 88th, and has risen from 1 star to 2 stars.  
Xuan Hao is 27, auditioned with God’s Menu, was ranked 33rd and then 41st, and has been 1 star the whole time.  
Team Selection:
This K-team is the leftovers team. 
I am not sure when this G-group was picked or who picked it, but I think they were the sixth team picked.
Episode 3, 1:18:11
Part Selection 
G-group is getting along great. Leader Xuan Hao says, in English, “who has this?” with his hands indicating his abs. Yutaka builds up suspense, but his abs aren’t exactly prominent -- “I’ve been eating a lot of snacks,” he explains, and like, same. 
Then Chen Ren Yu shows his abs for a picosecond. 
Tumblr media
I don’t know what my 3 or 4 readers want to see, but in case it’s that, there you go!
They seem to be getting along well -- it’s nice to see. 
Over on the K-side, it’s a bit quieter. These are the leftovers, and their spirits are a bit low. They have elected Park Min Seok leader, and when Jeon Ho Young suggests that they start with their strengths, Minseok jumps on that as a good idea. “Try to promote yourself so we can choose our parts,” Minseok says, and like, yeah, man. 💖That’s the way. 
Park Gwan Young says his voice is his strength, and the editors roll the tape. I guess he can hit high notes. Not sure he… should?... but hey, it’s a start. Jung Hwan Rok and Park Min Seok also say they’re most confident in singing. Jung Ho Jin says, “those guys lost out on these talents,” which I love. The team continues to build each other up -- “we’re the hidden talents!”-- “We’re the ones that were left behind, but we’re all good people!” -- but little Choi Seung Hun says with an embarrassed smile, “I’m not really confident about anything.” You’re an actor, child -- maybe mention that! Say, “Well, I’m a really good actor, so I think I can at least charm the audience from the stage.” Right? 
We get a flashback to an early vocal lesson, and it really seems to me that Choi Seung Hun is either tone deaf or going through the vocal change boys go through as they mature. His voice is breathy and almost tuneless, and he shows his misery clearly on his face. Oh, MNET editors, can we not focus on this? He’s a child and you shouldn’t have put him on the show. 
His teammates seem to feel a mixture of concern for and irritation about him. He’s a child, and he’s annoying, but he’s a child, so… what can you do? Yell at him? Send him to his room? It is hard all around. 
Let’s skip to Episode 4, at 5:16 in. After Minhyun does a little bit of half hearted choreo, the teams come up.
Leading us into a flashback, one of the psychopath dance teachers points out that neither team has anyone above two stars. The kindly main vocal teacher, Master Lee, says, “They aren’t the one who are currently good,” which is the kindest way to describe this battle. 
Tumblr media
In a flashback, we see the teams beginning a dance instruction with one of the psychopath dance teachers. He points out that they have a difficult song, and no all stars or even 3 stars. We see G-team try and they are kind of a mess. I assume K team tries with the same result; we don’t see it, but we see that both teams are now in a combined dance practice. Well, that’s unorthodox…? You’re going to do a dance rehearsal and teach them how to dance? I mean, you could TRY that, instead of simply yelling at them and insulting them, but I don’t see how it’ll help. At least he’s being kind of harsh and uncompromising about it, so there’s that. 
Poor Chen Ren Yu. I theorize he doesn’t really understand Korean so well, on top of not understanding the basics of choreography. I know I thought he did ok in his audition, but in this context it’s clear that he hasn’t had any dance instruction. 
Tumblr media
He is confusion. 
He’s supposed to bend his arms at the elbow in this sort of bird flap arm gesture, but he can’t do the motion. Master Choi is obsessed with this one move and I think it might just be too hard for Ren Yu. 
In the vocal lesson, at least we see Kei doing good rapping, but the singing is really off rhythm. Master Lee, the firm but kind male vocal instructor, doesn’t really know what to do. He compliments Kei’s excellent rapping, and then tries to get some like, melodic… singing… out of Xian Hao. His teammates sweetly encourage him. You just don’t see young men interacting like this on US television, which is why I guess this is so interesting to me. 
Tumblr media
Hey, here’s a good idea! Xian Hao goes to visit our auburn haired center, Zhang Hao, for some help with his singing! Zhang listens to Xian kindly, then gives real instruction.
They keep practicing. Xian Hao really wants to pull off that vocal run. Chen Ren Yu seems to have a good sense of pitch and is helping as well. It’s just all very sweet. The editing continues to focus on Chen Ren Yu and that one arm move, and I honestly have a bad feeling about it… so let’s see.  
As G-team takes the stage, K-team watches. Reaction King Jung Ho Jin is a head taller than most of his teammates, so he gives the impression of a teacher talking to his students as he tells his teammates, “Watch what they do well and do that too.” Good advice…? 
The performance: 
It was actually pretty decent. The leader, Xuan Hao, had pretty good facial expressions, though maybe they were too much? Like he was being an evil Bond villain or something. He does the shirt lift with conviction, and that’s good. Do or don’t do, but don’t half-ass it. Chen Ren Yu’s singing is mostly pretty good. Kei’s rapping sounded ok to me. No one was awful, though the few notes Qui Sheng Yang (in the eyepatch) got out sounded rullll shaky. The whole thing was a bit flat, and I don’t want to watch the whole thing over and over again. To be fair, I’m not a huge fan of the song itself. Don’t get me wrong, I like Kang Daniel and the boys as much as anyone, but that song is sort of meh for me. 
Tumblr media
In the MNET editing of the performance, they’re pretty cruel, of course. The song has barely started and the camera freezes to show Chen Ren Yu make the same mistake with the arms, but like, if they hadn’t focused on it I don’t think a soul would have noticed. I know I didn’t notice just watching it. 
The trainees' applause back stage feels slightly indulgent. Like, “look how well they did, considering,” not just “look how well they did.” They’re hoping that this team -- the 6th picked from G-group -- could beat the leftovers of the K-group. Come on, they have to be able to beat the leftovers, right???
The judges say that they did a nice job, and that’s about all they say. I think they know that most likely, none of these guys is going to survive the first elim, so why be cruel? I mean it’s never stopped the psychopath dance teachers before, but I swear a saw a glimmer of human compassion on their faces when they were dealing with this team. 
At 15:30, the K-team comes out, and everyone exclaims over how how tiny and little the two maknae -- Jung Se Yoon and Choi Seung Hoon -- are.
We go into flashback mode and see that Seung Hoon is already crying at a vocal rehearsal, and trying to dry his eyes and wipe his nose on the inside collar of his shirt, which is such a child-like thing to do.  
Vocal Master Lee asks, “Do you not feel confident?” and Seung Hoon says “with singing, dancing, rapping, and everything.” Master Lee asks, “Why do you think that?” and he says, “because it’s true,” and it’s just like. Oh, my heart. What do you say back to that? Because it IS true. Master Lee can only reply, in the gentlest of voices, “That’s a very sad thing to say.” 
And I mean, Jesus H Christ, why did his agency send this kid to this show? If they were so dead set on making their cute little actor into an idol, they should have given him two years of intensive vocal and dance lessons and sent him to the show for season 4, when he was 16. His voice seems to be in the middle of changing right now, on top of everything else. Like what the fuq? Do they not remember what happened to Lee Eugene, who was so humiliated by his experience on Produce X 101 that he changed his legal and professional name to Yoo Jinwoo and gave up the idol life altogether? 
Anyway. 
Master Lee tries to get the other maknae, little Se Yoon, to say that he’s happy, and it’s kind of a joke so Se Yoon smiles, but then says, “My confidence level dropped.” You can’t blame him -- he came to this show with one friend/teammate from his agency, but that friend had to leave the competition, and now he’s here alone, and he’s ranked 85th, and has been in 0 stars the whole time, probably being constantly berated by the psychopath dance teachers, and then no one picked him for this mission. 
Further decreasing the team’s balance is that they had one three star on their team, Jung Hwan Rok, and he was the main vocal, but “he’s been sick,” or at least that’s what they tell Master Lee. It’s totally possible that Hwan Rok got sick, but also maybe he was just sick of being on this show? Anyway, he's not here any more, and they're left trying to deal without him. 
They give the performance a try, and they don’t know the lyrics even though they’re reading them off of sheets of paper. Master Lee is actually quite gentle as he scolds them, but little Se Yoon begins crying and Leader Park Min Seok goes over to hold him as he sobs. It’s really something. 
Tumblr media
Poor kid. 
Hey MNET? Raise the minimum age to 17, how’s that sound? It’s still too young but it’s better than THIS. 
Jung Ho Jin, who is the reaction king of this whole segment, interviews:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
“They’re all crying. I’m going crazy. They cry so much. To be honest, I really want to cry too. But I thought I shouldn’t join them. If they just stare at the floor because they have no confidence, we’ll really become Team Gush Out.”
You guys, I adore Reaction King Jung Ho Jin. 
Time passes, and little Se Yoon is acting like the little kid he is, and that’s not a value judgement, just an assessment of what you clearly can see on screen. He’s claiming his ankle hurts, and is sort of scooting around on the floor on his butt like an elementary school kid. Leader Park Min Seok, wearing glasses and looking like he’s been put through the wringer, basically doesn’t know what to do. The kid won’t rehearse. They can’t lose another performer, but Se Yoon isn’t even trying. He’s just sort of bored and ignoring what everyone else is doing. 
Tumblr media
If I were Min Seok, I would be fighting the urge to strangle him, honestly. Not advocating violence, just acknowledging that my patience has limits. Min Seok finally calls the child out on his behavior. He’s been wandering around, hiding in storage rooms, stuff like that. Min Seok scolds him, not cruelly. He just says, in essence,  “Every minute right now is precious, and the stakes are so high -- why are you wasting time?”
Min Seok auditioned with The Real, (he’s the one in the leather jacket), which means he has  been training with Kim Tae Rae, the awesome vocalist we will see in Back Door; blue haired Park Han Bin, the All Star we will see in Hot Sauce; Lee Jeong Hyeon, age 20, one of the Avengers on the Love Me Right team chosen by Hui; Mun Jung Hyun, age 17, the charming kid who messed up the vocals in Very Nice but really does have a lot of talent. That’s who Min Seok trained with, and now he has to literally babysit. I can’t blame him for losing his patience. 
Tumblr media
He has a mini breakdown, and says, “I thought we could do it if we just shared the same goal. I thought everyone would be like that. But they must have feelings they can’t share. Same with Se Yoon, and Seung Hoon,” and here he looks at Seung Hoon. “Without fully understanding them, I think I criticized him too heavily.” Min Seok, lovey, I think you were entirely within your rights, but you are a sweet human being, and I hope your life is long, happy, and successful, whether or not you debut, ok?  
That night, he asks Se Yoon to come see him, and I mean. 
Tumblr media
This is a kid who is CLEARLY too young to be on a show like this. He probably is going crazy just missing his mom and dad. 
Min Seok apologizes to him for being hard on him (which he really wasn't!) and tells him he’s going to help him. “I want to be someone you can rely on.” They talk for a long time, and probably go through most of that box of tissues, and Se Yoon promises to work hard, and again Min Seok gathers him in his arms. 
Tumblr media
I mean this in the kindest way, but I really hope that Se Yoon gets eliminated in the first elimination. He needs to go home to his mother and father.
The good news is, I bet there are young women all over South Korea (and Japan, China, everywhere else…) who have just put Park Min Seok at the top of their “I want to marry this man” list. You never know for sure, but I will shocked if Min Seok doesn’t jump up quite a bit in the rankings (he’s currently at 84). I don’t think he’s doing this for views -- he probably assumes that MNET doesn’t give a shit about this team -- but this is some good TV, as exploitive and awful as it is. Like I said, you don’t usually see young men being this tender with each other on television in the US. 
They get back to practice, and Se Yoon starts really trying again. That helps Seung Hoon also. They all try their best. And now… it’s show time! Back stage, Team K watches with empathy. 
The Performance
Tumblr media
Left to right: Choi Sunghoon, Park Min Seok, Jung Se Yun, Park Gwan Young, Jeon Ho Young
Not visible: Reaction King Jung Ho Jin but he’s the one in the blue blazer 
Overall, about the same as G-group, more or less. Park Min Seok brought the right stage presence the song needed, though his vocals were a bit weak. I think Jung Ho Jin captures attention as the center, but his personality and vibe doesn’t match the song somehow. I think he would be a better fit for Very Nice. The three rappers did a perfectly decent job as far as I could tell. The two babies didn’t look wildly out of place, and Jeon Ho Young was brave enough to lift up his shirt for a picosecond, so good for him. For me, the real surprise of the whole performance was Park Gwan Young. He can sing! And he has a really nice voice! For real! He’s ranked 92, so I don’t have much hope for him surviving, but he may eventually do just fine. 
The MNET editing is kind, and we do get some reaction shots for Park Gwan Young’s singing, so that’s good. There’s also a cute shot of Minhyun singing along to the song, as if unaware he’s doing it. But most of the post performance commentary is about the maknae. 
Results 
Oh, I hate this part.
Main Vocal: 
Park Gwan Young 142
Chen Ren You 74
Sub vocal 1:
Park Min Seok 160
Yutaka 28
Sub vocal 2:
*Jung Ho Jin* 122
Riku 6
Main Rapper
Jeon Ho Young 41
Kei 57
Sub vocal 3:
Qui Sheng Yang 0 votes, oh no! 
Sub Rapper 1
Jung Se Yoon 27
Hyo 46
Sub Rapper 2:
Choi Seung Hun 26
Xuan Hao 115 
Totals:
K team takes it, 518 to 326.
When K wins, most of them jump up, but leader Min Seok just collapses. He’d been holding it together with like, duct tape and chewing gum, emotionally, and the second he didn’t have to hold it together any more he fell apart. He might be older than his maknae but that was a LOT of pressure for one person to have on his head. Everyone tries to get him to stop crying but he kind of can’t. He interviews later on that the maknae tried so hard, and that he’s always wanted to tell them he loved them. (And girls around the world swoon.)
Tumblr media
Meanwhile, on the G-side, of course they’re heartbroken. Poor guys. They lost to the leftovers team. They worked hard too and didn’t do a bad job. I think the worst part was Hyo’s face crumpling up into tears as he said, “I don’t want to go back.” 
This show is just a lot sometimes.
And that’s the end of the Burn It Up review.

sorry to be autistic but ive gotta tlak about csh for a minute because it really blows me away by how meta twin fantasy is ,like will created ftf as a reflection on the relationship he was in and the emotions he was feeling during the creation of mtm..also like the names of the respective versions ,"mirror to mirror" signifying how both of the people in the relationship only really loved the reflection of themselves they saw in the other [he also references this in strangers, where he says "i sleep lying next to a mirror" which is also a metaphor for being a homosexual] and face to face being the new version, signifying that he has finally come to terms,has finally had proverbial "conversation" face to face about the past feelings he felt while writing twin fantasy and has fully acknowledged what he felt and has moved on. this is also apparent in his past-tense use of words instead of present-tense like the usage of words in mtm [ftf those boys says "they were connected/at the back of the head/they *had* a conduit/their minds *were* the same" meanwhile mtm those boys says "they were connected/at the back of the head/they *got* a conduit/their minds *are* the same". he realizes the relationship has ended and its over now. a piece of fiction, if you will.]
also in mtm will states that "he has only lyrics now," that he is in despair over the loss of the relationship and the fact that the relationship is now a work of fiction that only exists in his mind-a fantasy. however in ftf he recognizes this and comes to terms with it- it is just a song. it is just lyrics. he even changes "he has only lyrics now" to "these are only lyrics now". he has changed, he has reflected and moved on. this is just a piece of fiction to him now, anything can happen from here. i also really like the change in famous prophets to where he no longer name drops himself and cate wurtz. like he says, "the contract is up, the names have been changed". this is no longer a breakup album made about wurtz but instead a piece of fiction documenting the feelings he experienced during a part of his life
i also really like these lyrics, taken from a bible verse about the 3 wise men i believe ? but the end was edited to say "now these Two remain" to reference the two people in the relationship
Tumblr media
its just so interesting. you break up with someone, one of you writes a breakup album in a fit of feeling, 7 years pass and youre both left to deal with the fallout. anything can happen from here. now these two remain and they must see face to face to put their past behind them.
the allusion to "the lady" by hojin stella jung at the end of ftf high to death is also incredibly powerful. the way he uses the words hojin uses to talk about their feelings while painting the portfolio of the lady to refer to his own feelings of making the original twin fantasy is so good and so compelling. the way they say "it was intense, it was an intense process, and it was how i was trying to, very hard, personify that intensity/but its hard to talk about her now, because i think she wasnt me/at least thats how i feel and im trying to figure out what to do now......but i did believe in her, 'the lady', and maybe/there is a different form now that the intensity takes" is an incredible parallel to will's feelings about writing the original twin fantasy and its a really powerful end to a song i think

🌙Moon’s Light | JJK🌙
Tumblr media
Synopsis: Luna is a young paralegal trying to maintain her new found independence and enjoy life. Too bad her job sucks and her boss is the worst. As if that wasn’t bad enough, she encounters a vampire named Jungkook who changes her life in more ways than one.
Jungkook is a shield and protector of the vampire kingdom of Korealis. He’s trained his entire life to block out any and all distractions and focus solely on becoming the strongest. While investigating a potential threat to the kingdom, he encounters Luna who turns out to be more than he could have ever imagined. It becomes his job to protect her, but he can’t tell if what he’s feeling is his devotion to the job or perhaps something deeper.
Secrets are uncovered. Lives are on the line. Hearts are tested.
Pairing: Vampire!Jungkook x Fem!OC
Warnings: Violence, character death, eventual smut, tragedy, some angst, strong language, MINORS DNI
Next chapter | Masterlist
|| Prologue ||
Vampire Kingdom of Korealis - Ruled by the Kim Dynasty.
King Kim Hojin IV has been ruling the Kingdom of Korealis since his father’s murder at the hands of the Saakhan Venom (SV) crime syndicate who were trying to overthrow the family and conquer the throne. Though his father had been killed, the SV attackers were taken down by him, his younger brother Kim Sejin, and the family’s closest friend and sworn shield Jeon Minseok. After that day, Hojin immediately punished those who led the attack as well as anyone else associated with the SV syndicate. The leaders were sentenced to immediate death while the others were sent to work at a camp for the remainder of their lives. Since they’re all vampires, that could mean they’ll be working and tortured for hundreds, even thousands of years.
Once Hojin restored peace to the kingdom he became well loved and praised as ruler. Ridding the kingdom of the SV members saw a boost in economical progression and overall citizen happiness. People were no longer afraid to go out. Those more vulnerable were no longer targets of senseless attacks and robberies. The kingdom began to thrive.
During his rule he had two sons, Kim Hojin V, next in line to the throne, and Kim Seokjin, Jin for short. Though he knows he may never be king, Jin seems to prefer it that way. He gets a bit more freedom to hang out with his cousins and friends. There may be slightly less pressure for him, but he still has a big job to protect the kingdom.
With his cousins, Kim Namjoon and Kim Taehyung, he goes through lots of training in order to stay prepared in case the kingdom sees another attack. They’re also joined by the youngest son of Jeon Minseok, Jeon Jungkook who serves as Jin’s sworn shield.
Appointed as the advisor and mentor to Jin is Min Yoongi of the wealthy Min family. Though not royal in blood, many consider his family royal in status and have been close friends of the Kim family for many generations.
Lastly, Jung Hoseok and Park Jimin are old friends of Jin’s. Hoseok also serves as Jungkook’s mentor. He’s been around Jin so much that Jungkook’s father took a liking to his overall good nature and honest spirit. He asked Hoseok to mentor Jungkook, not so much in combat since Hoseok isn’t much of a fighter, but to keep Jungkook on the right path and make sure he stays out of trouble. Jungkook isn’t a bad vampire, but a very curious and at times wayward one.
Park Jimin is a distant relative of the Park dynasty that ruled prior to the Kim dynasty. His family’s reign had long ended before it was found out that he was the lost son of the 5th heir to the throne. Until that point it was assumed that the entire Park family was lost to a plague. Jimin didn’t want the pressure of ruling a kingdom and opted to keep this secret to himself. However, he confided in Jin one day who in turn told his family with Jimin’s approval. They agreed to keep Jimin’s secret but they treat him as a royal member of the family out of respect for his ancestors who previously ruled the land. It embarrasses him a bit, but he’s gracious. He’s told them many times they can treat him as they do anyone else, but it seems they’d rather continue recognizing his royal blood. Except Seokjin. He has gladly treated Jimin the same as anyone else, which includes teasing and other forms of older brother torture.
Jin is the youngest in his family, so being the oldest amongst his cousins and friends gives him a chance to tease them the way he’s always been teased by his older brother. Together the 7 of them form a brotherhood whose main mission is to protect the kingdom and eliminate any major threats by any means necessary.
Things have been relatively peaceful for many years, but that’s all about to change.
Seokjin enters the sparring room in his wing of the castle. As with most places, the room is painted dark gray and shrouded in black curtains, black stained fixtures, and dark themed artwork lining the walls. The perfect setting for any vampire throughout the kingdom. Though the room is meant for practicing combat, Jin has turned it into more of a hangout spot for him and his brotherhood. They all practice sparring from time to time, but only Namjoon and Jungkook make a consistent effort to have long tiring sessions every day.
When Jin arrives that’s exactly what the two are doing. The other four guys are lounging in the corner scrolling their tablets and phones and listening to music. A usual sight on any given day.
“Why does no one ever bow when I come in here?” Jin playfully huffs as he stands in the middle of the room.
“Did you find anything out?” Yoongi asks ignoring Jin’s whining.
“Sort of,” he says rolling his eyes. “Ya!” He shouts signaling for Namjoon and Jungkook to stop their workout and join the rest of them.
The two step over to the group huffing and dripping with sweat. All eyes are on Jin as he gets ready to tell them about the information he just received.
“It hasn’t been fully confirmed,” he begins. “But there’s a rumor that a new generation of Saakhan Venom is being formed. They’re trying to infiltrate the human world so they can convert as many new soldiers as they can.”
“Well that can’t be too bad, right?” Hoseok asks. “We just check the logs of everyone that’s been going to the human world and look into them.”
“That would be easy,” Jin says. “But we don’t think they’re getting there through official portals.”
“You mean they found another way to get there?” Jungkook asks with his eyebrow raised. “So these guys are serious?”
“Oh boy,” Jimin jokes knowing this is the type of thing Jungkook loves.
“Should I investigate?” Jungkook asks pulling out his silver gun.
Of the 7 of them, Jungkook is the only one who wields a gun. He’s an expert marksman able to hit a target less than a centimeter big from 50 miles away. His gun isn’t used for recreation though. It’s only able to fire special bullets crafted to kill even the strongest of vampires. The process to possess such a powerful weapon is not a quick nor easy one.
Since he was born, Jungkook had been trained to pass every trial required to be granted the license to carry the Vampire Slayer, as it’s been nicknamed by the public. After the attack that killed Jin’s grandfather, Jungkook’s father wanted to make sure as shield Jungkook would be able to protect the prince and the kingdom no matter what, so he had Jungkook start training as soon as he could walk.
Many people try and fail to pass every physical, mental, and emotional test required, but Jungkook aced them all. What usually takes 300 years to achieve, he mastered in 100, becoming the youngest wielder of the Vampire Slayer ever. When the worst of the worst criminals need to be taken out he’s always the one up for the challenge, and he’s always the one who wins.
Jin gives Jungkook a confident nod fully trusting in his shield to find out more information on these criminals. It’s a nod he’s given before. A nod that Jungkook knows means he has full discretion to react however he feels necessary the moment he discovers a true threat. A nod that means shoot to kill.
“Time to say hi to the humans,” Jungkook smirks twirling his gun.

Hello, my name is Hojin Stella Jung, I'm a senior at McQueen High School, my portfolio is a collection of paintings - that was created during last summer, and the first half of my senior year, and it's called "The Lady", and I didn't feel very well when I painted the first, and I didn't feel very well when I painted the last. It was intense, it was an intense process, and it was how I was trying to - very hard, personify that intensity, but it's hard to talk about her now, because I think she wasn't me, at least that's how I feel and I'm trying to figure out what to do now
But she represents fervor in woman, she is powerful, yet fragile, she dares but also averts her gaze, and I love her, at least - I did, and - but now I feel lost, and I'm unsure of what to think and feel most of the time
But I did believe in her, "The Lady", and maybe, there is a different form now that the intensity takes
