Pesadelo Ruivo

Like yes, it's a Shakespeare play but it's also a folk tradition that could have originated as far back as the medieval times.

And yes, it's not always translated to "a midsummer night's dream" but while Genius translates the line to "a midsummer night's moonlight"

Doolset (who I personally trust more) translates it to "a midsummer night's dream" so I will be teaching you about this fun tradition so shut up.

Quite simply put: People of older times believed that because the night of midsummer was the brightest night of the year, it must be a night where "the plants get magical abilities and the other worldly beings were especially aktive." (translated from text below which was taken from the website of the Nordic Museum in Stockholm)

So what magical ability did these plants get? The ability to tell the future! And other things but this is the relevant one because-

"A way to predict the future that's still lives on is to put seven or nine species of flowers under the pillow in the midsummer night. In the dream appears the one who you will live your life with." (translated from text below which was taken from the website of the Nordic Museum in Stockholm)

A midsummer night's dream is a dream of your Soulmate!

I haven't seen anyone talk about this, but I've been thinking about Jimin's verse in Normal:

Heavy is the head when you chasin' true

Will you color me red? Will you color me blue?

Two sides of a coin, and they both ain't true

Is it different for mе? Is it different for you?

Even though there could be many interpretations of these lyrics I'm sure these - red and blue - colours weren't an accidental or random choice.

They make up taegeuk at the center of the South Korean flag, representing the dichotomy and balance of yin (blue) and yang (red), the concepts of which are commonly associated with female and male among other things.

We've seen Jimin express androgyny, gender nonconformity, and gender fluidity many times over the years. There are too many examples for this to be insignificant or coincidental:

His self expression in the "Jimin's room" photos for BE, with different make up and accessories applied on each side of his face, the right side being more feminine.

His hand drawn tattoos in ARMY.zip photographs from 2020

His choice of clothing and accessories from womens ranges

His gender-fluid references in the Like Crazy MV, again dividing his face and styling half feminine/ half masculine with makeup and accessories.

The Latin writing on his hands - "Illecebra" and "Arcanus" using masculine and feminine forms, and the womens' clothing on the mannequin in his performance of Filter.

The concept photos from Muse, which show a feminine styled top underneath his uniform, not to mention the abundance of Smeraldo flowers.

Performing a korean fan dance, which is usually reserved for women

Taemin, who knows Jimin very well, commented on the gender neutral charm Jimin and he both have (in ep. 20 of Suchwita, with Yoongi).

Considering that the credits for the song include RM, j-hope, and SUGA, people close to Jimin, I can't imagine the obvious implications would escape them.
