Bts Fake Love - Tumblr Posts

I will never move on from this Min Yoongi

That smile, that tiny smile 🥺

Nah, I'm not okay

But that's okay

Housemates

So, I was introduced to the world of BTS very recently and I'm in love! Love their songs and everything about them, so thought, why not write about them!

So here goes my first ever BTS fanfic 💞

Eventually Jungkook x reader 💝

'This is it' Y/N said,  pushing the doorbell.

'I hope this is it' Apu said taking a deep breath.

They had lost count of the number of houses they had visited the last month. But something would be wrong and things didn't work out. This time it felt different. This house already had seven residents - seven Korean boys who attended the same college as Y/N and Apu. They had advertised about a free room in their place and the girls decided to give it a try.

The door opened to reveal a tall boy with Sandy brown hair. He smiled at them.

'Hi,  Namjoon?'

'That's me,  you must be Y/N and Apu' said Namjoon shaking their hands. 'Please come in'

'Thank you for letting us come,  we've been house hunting since classes began' Apu said.

'No problem at all ' Namjoon said shaking his head. 'Would you like to see the room? It's upstairs '

'Yes please ' Y/N said,  following him.

'Boys!' Namjoon called out as he climbed the stairs. 'So we have 3 rooms upstairs and 2 downstairs'

'This is perfect! ' Y/N said stepping into the room.

Two single beds on two sides with dressers and wardrobes were the only furniture in the room. But it was more than what they imagined.

'We have two bathrooms on this floor and one downstairs - I guess you two can take one here' Namjoon said,  as three other boys joined them.

'Meet Jimin,  Hoseok and Jin'

'Hi' the girls said waving at the boys.

'Yoongi and Tae just woke up, they'll be here soon ' Jimin said with a smile.

'So,  what do you think? '

'I think this is the best we've seen till now ' Apu said with a shrug. 'Y/N ? '

'Can't agree more ' Y/N said with a grin.

'So that's a yes? ' Jin said.

'Yep!' Apu confirmed.

They followed the boys downstairs to the living room and sat for a chat.

They were in the middle of a conversation when they were joined by Yoongi and Tae.

'Kook's in the shower ' Tae informed as he sat beside Namjoon.

'Tae and Jungkook are in the room opposite to yours. The rest of us are all downstairs' Jin explained.

'We'll have to have some house rules - since its gonna be different when you girls join us ' Namjoon said. 'Well get to that once you move in? '

'Sure - we are packed actually. Only have to get out stuff in here' Y/N said.

'So we'll move in tomorrow? ' Apu said.

'Sounds good! ' Jin said with a thumbs up.

The girls got up to leave. Y/N turned around and walked straight into something. Or someone.

She jumped back apologizing and looked up to see another boy.

'Sorry' he whispered a look of surprise on his face.

His wet hair head had sprayed tiny drops to her face and his smelled fresh and citrusy.

The boys laughed and Jimin said,  'This is Jungkook '

'Hi' the girls the said giggling.

Jungkook smiled at them shyly.

*Beasts*

Rapmon😎: What do you think about our new housemates? JK : 👌 Jimin: I have a good feeling about this 😁 Jin: Gotta agree with that Yoongi: You all better behave well and not embarrass us all😐 Tae: 😂😂😂 J-hope🎵: Finally I like this place 😁 Things are gonna get fun

The Magic Shop & Pandora’s Box Theory [Fake Love Teaser 1]

BTS (방탄소년단) 'FAKE LOVE' Official Teaser 1 officially dropped. The Magic Shop is explicitly stated as “a psychodramatic technique that exchanges fear for a positive attitude.” Psychodrama is often used in group therapy workshops in mental hospitals or other mental facilities to help patients gain insight into their own lives. 

However, the “Magic Shop” is a coined term from the book Into the Magic Shop by Dr. Doty, which was quoted before as seen above for their performance at KBS Gayo Daeshukje 2017. In the book, Dr. Doty met Ruth, an owner of a magic shop and “a woman who taught him a series of exercises to ease his own suffering and manifest his greatest desires. Her final mandate was that he keep his heart open and teach these techniques to others. She gave him his first glimpse of the unique relationship between the brain and the heart.” Her techniques include relaxing the body, taming the mind, opening the heart, and clarifying your intent. More details of her techniques linked here.

In the teaser, the boys are exchanging items from the WINGS era, that symbolizes their fear, for items from Highlight Reels, that symbolizes a positive attitude. These items also references to the girls that helped them gain this positive attitude, just like Ruth did for Dr. Doty.

Jin is exchanging his earpiece for a ?

Jhope is exchanging his snickers for a cake

Namjoon is exchanging his glass shard for a hairband

Jimin is exchanging his forest photo for an umbrella

Suga is exchanging ? for a lollipop

V is exchanging ? for a backpack

(some of Jin’s, Suga’s, and V’s items were not shown).

Jungkook is the only one that did not exchange something for an item but instead got a key. This is because in the WINGS era and in the book Demian, Jungkook symbolizes Sinclair when he was an innocent boy naive to the evils of the world. He had no fear of the world because he was not exposed to it yet.

This teaser also references to the story of Pandora’s box. If you don’t know, the story of Pandora’s box is from Greek mythology that explains how evil was spread to the world. The Greeks believed that the world was once pure and innocent until Pandora, a curious girl, opened a box that was given by Zeus but she was instructed never to open it. When she did open it, evil things were released such as greed, envy, hatred, pain, disease, hunger, poverty, war, and death. She tried to close the box, but the only thing that was left in the box was hope. The myth conveys the message that hope is the only thing that humans can hold onto in an evil world.

In relation to the teaser, Jungkook’s key opens up to a room full of dirt, rubble, coat hangers and a hooded figure. The room and the figure symbolizes the world and its evils and the coat hangers symbolize the other boys, who have been exposed to evil. There are 6 coat hangers in total. Remember that the boys are all personas of one person at each stage of life according to WINGS and Demian. Jungkook is now exposed to the evil world and must surpass it, going through each persona, in order to find himself and mature. The coat hangers symbolize the personas of the Self because in Singularity, Taehyung uses it to dance with himself.

Just a reminder that BigHit officially declared that in Highlight Reels, the boys were acting not as themselves because they FEARED that they will not be loved for who they are. They gained fake love since the world, including themselves, did not like them for who they are, but for who they were acting to be. This time, the boys are exchanging their fears for a positive attitude in hopes to find real love, real love for their true selves. The book Into the Magic Shop teaches how you can change your life by first changing what’s within yourself, losing your fears of being judged and hated, and having a positive attitude to break free from your fake self to gain real love.

Here are my past theories of WINGS and LY: Her. Please read it so it would make more sense. THEY’RE ALL RELATED! 

MY THEORIES ARE CORRECT!

The interviews of BTS so far have proven my theories right, especially Singularity! ♥ 

“Fake love does not last”

“If you’re not true to yourself, you will lose that love”

“It’s not just a relationship between people but also with yourself”

“We want to show the dark side of love”

“But in love, we should be able to take off the mask and be true to who we are”

-RM (2018)

MY THEORIES ARE SO RIGHT THAT I FEEL LIKE I DIRECTED FAKE LOVE

WHOA! Fake Love was better than I imagined! The grunginess and the aggressive and powerful choreography with the angsty chorus is now what makes me feel alive! 

AAAND MY THEORIES ARE RIGHT! JUNGKOOK WENT THROUGH EACH PERSONA! I WAS SHAKING WHEN I WAS SEEING THE PLOT UNFOLD BECAUSE IT FELT LIKE I NARRATED IT! I COULDN’T BELIEVE IT.

I will elaborate more after I get some sleep. You can scan over some of my theories to see what I predicted, particularly the theory about the Magic Shop/Fake Love Teaser 1 and my Holistic Theory. 

Staying up all night for the queen to take over the world was worth it!

FAKE LOVE THEORY

I stayed up all night for Fake Love to drop and it was worth it! Before I get into the theories, I just want to say I am REALLY proud of the boys. They have come this far and now they are taking the U.S. by storm. They’re only going to get bigger after the BBMAs and it makes my heart so full.

Intro: Brief Summary of Past Theories

Fake Love is a song about losing one’s self to please another in order to gain their love. When the first teaser came out, I theorized that Jungkook was going to go through each persona, which are the other members, and I was right! You can view that theory here.

I am a huge believer that all the boys are manifestations of one person at each stage of life, exposed to a particular kind of evil, and must overcome them. There are LOTS of clues from the WINGS era about this. It’s in Demian, it’s in the short films, the music videos, and they are even explicitly stated in the concert WINGS VCR’s. Here are just some examples of quotes from the VCR:

“The boy walks, with not one but seven hearts. Seven beats and one strides forward. Altered perspective and one is seven.”

“Two worlds back to back, Relentlessly merge into one. Now the seven boys are on the road, Seven but One. Seven boys with one heart. One boy with seven hearts, One and Seven, a reflection of each other.“

Remember my pandora box theory about Jungkook’s box and key? Greek mythology believed that evil originated from Pandora’s box and she released different kinds of evil such as greed, envy, hatred, pain, disease, hunger, poverty, war, and death. The myth conveys the message that hope is the only thing that humans can hold onto in an evil world. Jungkook will now start his journey to maturity through the exposure to the dark and evil side of life, paralleling the myth. He first stumbles into the shop seeming naive to the place but the others knew how to make a transaction right away. Jungkook receives a key from the Magic Shop because he does not have a fear to trade. This is because in Demian and WINGS, Jungkook is the persona that represents the young innocent boy naive to the evils of the world and therefore has no fear. He is the BEGINNING of a man’s life. Concluding from all the past videos and short films, Jin is the PRESENT, and everyone else represents a stage of life in between Jungkook and Jin (You can view in detail how I concluded that here). Therefore, Jungkook receives a key instead that would start his journey to maturity by going through each persona in the shop, which are the other members, exposing himself to evil.  This leads us to the story of the music video.

THE MAGIC SHOP AND LOVE MAZE

The members are in a building or in the Magic Shop in their respective rooms except Jungkook. It actually seemed like a maze with obstacles in the music video and this is not the first time BTS has referenced mazes (Young Forever). 

He experiences what the others members are experiencing in each room. Everything, especially their fears. He experiences them acting untruthfully to themselves, hiding themselves in order to gain love. Jungkook is the members and the members are Jungkook. 

This is reflected in the acting...

...and in the choreography. (Edit: as I saw more of the choreography, Jungkook actually mirrors more members other than J-hope, which are RM, V, and Jin.)

FEARS

The members’ fears are those ones that prevent them from being themselves because the world might not love them from who they are. Their fears are of course related to their WINGS solos and the HYYH notes. 

Jin - fear of the truth

J-hope - fear of abandonment

Jimin - fear of being caught in a lie

Taehyung - fear of being like his abusive father

RM - fear of being lost in life

Suga - fear of losing his music

(*Note that some of these might not be accurate because we don’t have everything from the HYYH notes yet).

THE TRUTH PROTECTED

In the beginning, we see Jin closing the curtains on Jungkook. It’s as if he’s preventing him from seeing his room and seeing his fears, perhaps even preventing his child persona from evil. 

Jin is then seen protecting a Smeraldo flower, which we now know represents ‘a truth that cannot be told.’ The flower can represent lots of things that are untold, however, in this context, it is the truth to one’s self. Jin protects his flower with extra care as evidenced by the glass case. His room then explodes and the flower turns into sand, and when this happens, the truth is unveiled. BUT WHY SAND? I took a while to figure this out but I will explain it later.

Something important to note is that the members are all trying to keep something out of their rooms and/or lock themselves in. 

J-hope keeps his door from opening. 

Suga has barricades on his windows and the fireplace. 

Jimin closes the faucet. 

They are trying to keep the evil that they fear out of the rooms. Out of sight and out of mind. However, we know many times from WINGS and Demian that someone cannot mature without exposure to evil. They themselves want to be perfect and they want their love to be perfect (”I wish love was perfect as love itself”). They deny all the bad things in themselves and the bad things that comes with love. Hence, see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil.

This is also reflected in the choreography.

And in the set (the hands are the actions of covering your eyes, ears, & mouth)

THE ANSWER

However, when Jungkook finally finishes going through all of the personas, he realizes the truth and the importance of staying true to yourself depicted by the sand that he picks up with the shadow of the flowers flying away. He realizes that the truth, which may be the evil and the bad in themselves, cannot be contained any longer. It will eventually be uncovered, it will not last. They have to face their fears, the good and the bad in themselves and in love, in order to mature. (Edit: This statement is now proven true through their behind the scenes shooting of Fake Love).

We saw from Jin’s case that when the flower turns into sand, the truth is unveiled. Now, Jungkook unveils all of the members’ truths after living their experiences and carrying it with him. Also, this scene is reminiscent of the  sea/beach where the members want to meet each other again according to the HYYH notes. The sand and the water represents the beach, and all of the members reaching the beach together means the merging of all the personas together as I’ve said stated before in my holistic theory. This is why the flower turns into sand in particular. The merging of the personas is symbolic of when a man becomes WHOLE, finds himself, finds his answer, and ready to find real love.

Back to the theory, after Jungkook unveils the truth is when the evil that they were trying to keep out, gets in their rooms. This is metaphorically depicted with...

Snickers flooding in J-hopes room. 

Fire exploding in Suga’s room. 

Water flooding in Jimin’s room.

V’s phone starting to flicker the words “Save Me/I’m Fine” (Zoom in to see).

RM seeing his fake reflection

In addition to the explosion in Jin’s room. 

It is very reminiscent of the interlude of Blood, Sweat, and Tears. After Jin kisses the statue, signifying a lie that cannot be told, all hell breaks loose. However this time, after Jungkook uncovers the truth, all hell breaks loose. 

THE NEXT STEP

Jungkook uncovers the secret passage to Jin’s room, which is found to have already exploded with rubble on the floor, with 6 coat hangers, and a hooded figure. The room and the figure symbolizes the world and its evils and the coat hangers symbolize the other boys, who have been exposed to evil. There are 6 coat hangers in total. Remember that the boys are all personas of one person at each stage of life according to WINGS and Demian. Jungkook has now been exposed to the evil world and surpassed it by going through each persona.

This figure can also be seen as the shopkeeper of the Magic Shop. He waits for Jungkook in the end after giving him the key, to trade him a fear of the world. I’m not exactly sure what this fear would be but from the theme of the era, it would have to be losing yourself. Since the members are personas of himself, it can also be that he is afraid to lose parts of himself which are the other members, hence his WINGS song Begin. Losing one’s self tumbles into losing one’s love.

Outro: Conclusion

The whole point of all the eras is to convey the message of finding yourself and loving yourself. The last thing that is important to note in the music video is that Jungkook ends up in the room that Jin was in at the beginning. He ends up in the present and who Jin is. He’s now maturing to find the answer and is now ready to take on the world to find real love.

“Fear is another name for hope.

Tears are another way to smile.

The boy smiles.

He can smile when he is whole.

The boy walks on." 

- WINGS VCR (2017)
