#live analysis

Oh. And there will be timestamps for everything. Because I am so serious about siting sources and making things easy to find for people. So I need to stop being lazy and do that more.

Disclaimer: There are jokes in here, and I do come in a little heavy with them in the beginning. I have jokes throughout, but once the actual live starts, I get a little more serious. I just had to make the first few seconds enjoyable while we waited for them to get started. Please hang in there and read the whole thing if you're interested in my thoughts at all because I do have a few things to say here. On any points that I brought up, I will be taking questions. Or if you have anything else to say about the live. Or if you just wanna talk about other vmin or any other ship or member moments. I'm open for anything.

@00:00:00 Hobi, we already saw you. We know you're there. You can't fool us, lmao. I know that people watching it live may have came in after he scooted away and disappeared, but come on. He has to know that people in the comments will be letting everyone know it's not just Tae at that point.

Also @00 - Tae be looking good in this live. I know you creepy peeps had to be flipping out about that little bit of chest exposure.

@00:00:05 Well. There goes Hobi.

@00:00:05-00:00:34 - It's Tae just sitting there. Being the gorgeous being that he is. Breathing. Ugh. Don't you just love it when this man just breathes? Like. Oof. That some good use of his lungs right there. There's a little bit of him making a face in there somewhere, and he licks and bites his lips. And then Hobi has to laugh. Like we don't already know he's there. Everyone knows he's there.

@00:00:38 - Okay. I'll stop playing so much now that we're actually in the part where they finally actually start the live. Min springs up out of nowhere. Did you know he was there? I sure didn't.

~00:00:40 - Hoseok pops up, too, copies the sound that Chim made, and you get to hearChim's adorable laugh.

@00:00:41 - Someone thinks that Tae is Jin, and Hobi thinks it's hilarious. I think it's hilarious, but - also. Think about it like this. Those that were asking if it were Jin? Come on now, we all know they were just calling Tae handsome. BTS should know by now that in Army lingo Jin = handsome.

@00:01:11 - Hobi. Is. So. Beautiful. Fight me.

@00:01:21 - Hobi still beautiful.

~00:01:40 - They are talking about how they usually gather when they're in the States. Or Las Vegas. Specifically these members. With Kook. Whom they suspect will be joining them after he's done with his workout. Duh. I want JK to join them. The four of them just have such great energy together. I mean, the seven of them all have great energy together, but...yeah. Okay. Dance line + Tae is a superb combination, but not the only amazing combination in this team of 7. It's just they're the one in question right now so let me talk about how great their energies are together. Ugh. I'd talk about any other combination the same way if they were the topic lmao.

~00:01:52 - They are starting to eat! You know it makes me so happy when these boys *cough* men *cough* are stuffing their faces. I think it's because food makes me happy in general. My peeps at work were making fun of me today because I kept asking if it was lunch time...as soon as we got to work lmao. I can't help it. I make a good lunch, and I look forward to eating every day lol

~00:02:00 - Jimin starts setting things up so that they can eat. Getting more food and everything. And Hobi is still looking pretty uwu

~00:02:30 - Jimin to the rescue once again as the camera has a hard time focusing. Hobi points out that it's probably because of the food, so Jimin fixes the camera angle.

~00:03:00 - Tae doesn't understand why people want to watching mukbang because watching it makes him hungrier. Same. I had to prepare a snack to watch this live lmao. And I am eating a snack while rewatching to do this analysis lol

@00:03:17 - Hobi's smile and laugh. Can't get enough of his sunshine. Also, Chimsmiling and being all cute and stuff. Can't spell adorable without Hobi and Chim. Well...I guess you can, but that beside the point.

~00:03:45 - Taehyung is saying that the phone is too far away to read the comments, and Hobi assures us that he will read them later. Ugh. Angel. uwu

~00:04:55 - Hobi can't eat ginger. This is one of the biggest disappointments to me. I love ginger. lmao I mean. It's a good thing I will never have the chance to eat with him. ;;

~00:05:045 - Where did Chim's plate go? Pretty sure Tae wanted to put some food on his plate, but he took it away.

@00:05:03 - Bibimbap is a signature dish from Korea. Which, of course many of you probably already know that. And if you've ever had it before, you know why. Yummy.

@00:05:40 - I'm not surprised to hear them say Korean food in the US is tastier. Most of my friends who studied abroad here said the food was tastier. I told them it's because we put too much of everything here.

~00:08:20 - There's some kind of telepathy thing going on between Vmin here. Even Hobi doesn't know what's up lmao

~00:08:25 - Chim trying to protect Armies from the risqué picture on the wall lmao

~00:10:35 - Oh no. Hobi ate ginger. lol. Cutie.

~00:11:10 - Jimin assures Tae that the food isn't spicy. Tae says he trusts him. This is important in just a few minutes lol

~00:11:55 - Tae takes a bit of the food that Chim said wasn't spicy, but he thinks it's spicy lmao. He gives Jimin a face and tells him that it's spicy. Jimin says "I know you" and tries the food. Like. Boy. I don't doubt that you know your Tae. But I think he knows himself more. lol At least in terms of what he considers to be spicy or not. Don't worry. I'm not going to pick on you (or assume that you two aren't close/best friends) because you can't gauge his spice tolerance with 100% accuracy. If it was that easy to falter my belief in your friendship, I wouldn't be here lmao

~00:14:35 - Now that he's had some food, Hobi decides to read the comments. He reads one comment, but claims his face causes an unstable connection. lol

~00:14:50 - Jimin thinks Hobi's unstable face is hilarious. I assume he had to have made a face or something, but he's off camera, so we don't get to see it. Tae thinks it's hilarious that Chim finds it so hilarious, and I also think he gets a glimpse at whatever Hobi was doing lmao Even so, he was enjoying watching Jimin laugh so much that it took a full three seconds before he looked at Hobi. Then of course has to look back at Jimin lying on the floor (still laughing, as we see when he comes back up). Talk about smitten. lol

~00:15:10 - Jimin comes back up, still laughing. With Hobi's face right against the screen, we have Jimin and Tae laughing in the background. Tae tells us that Chim's almost crying lol

~00:16:55 - Intense staring between Hobi and Chim. Tae glances at Hobi before he starts laughing, making the other two laugh lol They don't get what's so funny, but they're cute anyway. The laughing continues for a good while, but unfortunately I can't understand what's so funny :( So oof...nothing much to say about it. But then they're joking about the names of Korean foods in English, and continue laughing lol

~00:19:14 - Jimin talking about eating fried chicken, but can't say the brand on Vlive. Hobi can't figure it out lol

~00:20:40 - There seems to be some more Vmin telepathy here. Like Tae could feel Chim's gaze on him. I suppose it's possible he could see Jimin staring at him from his peripheral, but eh. I dunno. It seemed more like he just felt the stare lol

The above image is Tae's face to Jimin leaving his side to check the comments. Poor little sad Taetae. lol (Disclaimer, because yes. I know this isn't him being sad that Chim is leaving his side. (probably. lol. no really.) It just so happens that this was his face the instant Chim went to read the comments, and I thought it was funny. So screenshot. And silly little analysis because I wanna be funny sometimes, but obviously admit when things are clearly taken out of context like this.)

~00:21:00 - Hoseok talking about how much he loves the food and wondering who picked it. Tae says that he did, and Hobi tells him that he loves him a lot lol because he likes the food. And then maybe it looks like Tae holds back a smile if you wanna see it (if you're looking for v/hope is what I'm saying).

~00:21:30 - While Jimin was up reading the comments, he says that the Armies keep asking the boys to marry them. Tae then asks the Armies if they want to marry them. Chim looks back at Tae, and Hobi looks at Chim. After looking at Chim, he then looks at Tae. We don't get to see Jimin's expression here, but let's play a little lol. Maybe Jimin thought Tae asked in a cool/smooth way, so he looked back at him. Or maybe he didn't want Tae to say that, and his look back was a warning for Tae to watch it. They do have to be careful a little bit about what they say, after all. Maybe one of them is getting married? (or is married?) or maybe they got married? since they're in vegas lmfao (takes the opportunity to drop this golden vmin fic in here for you guys) uwu lol okno. I can't say that. People will attack my askbox lmao. Whatever it was (and it being nothing is also a possibility) I can't begin to shoot out accurate guesses probably lol

~00:21:53 - Jimin decides that the Armies don't have anything to say either, so he goes back to sit down.

~00:23:28 - Ugh. I have never wanted to be Jimin so badly. To sit right there next to Hobi while he's looking like that? lmao Only joking, but also not. Sorry. I'll keep fangirling over Hobi to a minimum lol maybe

~00:24:23 - After Tae has been reading the comments for a moment, a fan tells him to go enjoy his food. Good on the fan. Tae and Hobi separate to let Tae have his spot back because of course he needs to sit next to his chimmy that's where his plate is lol

~00:24:25 - Oh. So is this a glimpse to how the dumpling fight got started? lmao Tae and Jimin can't decide whether to eat the ice cream now or wait. I imagine this is very mild compared to That Incident, but it's cute back and forth nonetheless. Jimin giggles about it uwu In the midst of it, we have Hobi moving closer to the screen again. Can you hear that? Is that my heart beat? Hobi, I can't handle you being so close lmao I'm SORRY. I'll stop. He's like close enough for me to kiss his forehead, but I can't kiss his forehead ;; This is torture ono I want to ruffle his hair unu

@00:26:02 - I guess that was their last spoon

~00:26:28 - More vmin soulmatery with them sliding off the couch at the same time lol

~00:28:15 - Hobi was talking about a friendship tattoo that was supposed to be a secret? Well, anyway. Little cuties up at the camera trying to say friendship in English and giving it his all. Proceeds to try and spell it, gets to 'r' and decides to simply ask "yes or no?" instead. Good save, Hobi. You did a solid. Also yes, that is Chim in the background eating with "the last spoon" that he gave to Tae earlier. Nothing weird. They do it all the time. The seven of them. Anyway. Back to the friendship thing, they seem surprised that Army will pretty much support them no matter what. I mean. Come on. Of course we will. We're like family lmao

~00:30:00 - Tae wants to know how long everyone has been an Army. Ey. If anyone reads this analysis this far and cares to, let me know! How long have you all been Army? Me? I've listened to BTS from the beginning, and I considered myself a fan since I was watching all of their content. However, I don't claim the fanbase name until I actually participate with other fans, and it was 2015 (or the HYYH era) in which I really solidified my identity as an Army.

~00:31:35 - They talk about Jimin's OST. They admit that they've already gotten to hear it, which is a privilege of them being part of the same group. And friends. But anywho. Let's talk about Jimin wanting to try new things and branching off and doing his own thing. He's always been the sort that says he want to collaborate "with his members" before doing anything with other people, and I have a lot of respect for him for caring about his members so much. That being said, I really am so happy to see him building his confidence and working on projects like this. His first song to be released on an official album was Friends. It took him seven years to create a song for an official album, but he did it. I can't express enough how happy it makes me to see him creating things, and I look forward to what we might be getting from him in the future.

~00:33:20 - They're talking about being natural with us, and Hobi's like...let me pretend the camera's not there and show them my back. Okay. But I wanna see your face ono Not that the back of his head isn't adorable too lmao gdi I will stop fangirling eventually lol

~00:34:55 - but not now apparently Hobi's laugh just makes my day. Ugh. I swear. If anyone ever comes to me and says anything bad about this ray of sunshine and all that is good in the world, I will FIGHT. Spit you into the fire and sell your soul to Satan. (Seriously. I have blocked people who sent any BTS member hate to my box. Don't do it.)

~00:36:00 not Tae smiling and looking at Chim's butt while he does pushups on the couch? lol okno but he really did

This tongue bite and side eye glance @ jimin. Time stamp in the screen shot lmao. obviously I'm playing.....

~00:36:40 - They think Army keeps seeing them like babies? Look. I made several attempts to refer to you all as men during this analysis lmao But you will always be boys to me. Mm. Hobi? Just two months younger than me, so he's not a baby in my eyes. Chim and Tae are getting close, but Kook is an absolute baby. When I say "baby" or "kid", obviously I know they're adults but they're younger than me. They can drink. And party. And have sex. They're adults. Grown men. Whom I will forever call boys because I call men boys in general. If I can be called a "girl" at 28 years old, they can be called "boys."

~00:37:15 - The fans want a heart. And Hobi gave them a heart uwu so precious. Oops sorry. Jimin looks at Tae and tells him to do the mouth thing. Hey. It wouldn't hurt my feelings if you two updated that selfie again for Tae's birthday this year. You know. The one as my dp? Please do lol And then Jimin sending hearts to Tae because why wouldn't he? lmao

~00:38:30 - They're scatting, but Tae gets into it. Ugh. Adorable lmao And Hobi being adorable in the background.

~00:38:47 - Ugh. Look at all that empty space on that couch next to Hobi. That's more than enough room for me. Let me be there ono

~00:38:50 - Hobi smiling fondly at vmin getting into wishing fans a happy birthday lol

~00:43:45 - Oh no. Hobi's getting closer again. My heart can't take it lol I need more Hobi dance videos. Seeing him dance in the little space here is cute, but I wanna see him dance

~00:44:30 - Hobi moves off camera ;; He's giving vmin their space lmao he just likes watching them. He admitted it. lmao

~00:45:04 - Oof. Hobi. I just wanna lay my head on your chest ;n;

~00:47:32 - All right. All right. The last three timestamps were all Hobi. I'm sorry. Here, we have Jimin serenading Tae. Happy? lol

~00:48:36 - Here ya go. The time stamp is where Jimin slaps Hobi's butt. A bit before this, they were bantering a little. Hobi asks to go take a shower, but Jimin says he'll go first. Cute little Ji/hope moment.

~00:48:40 - But then Jimin says he's going to the bathroom for real, and Tae wants to join him. lmao. No, only one of them can go at a time, Jimin says. I assume that there's probably more bathroom available than one, not that this was any "suggestive" thing going on here. Even if there's only one bathroom in the hotel room, they have their own rooms to go to. Either way, Jimin probably didn't want two of them to disappear at once, leaving one to film by himself. Tae never does go to the bathroom, though. So there's that lmao

~00:49:35 - Hobi is missing his Kookie ono "Our usual group is if Jungkook is here. But he's not here. This is not usual." Poor boo unu He says he thought JK would come, but he hasn't yet. I also thought he would come. I need my dance line + Tae combo. ;;

~00:50:40 - Tae is apparently looking for a compliment on his golfing ability. Hoseok doesn't give him one, so he tells Jimin when he returns, and of course Jimin has to compliment him. These two know each other too well lmao

~00:53:41 - Yeaaaahhhh They left just enough space for me between Hobi and Chim lmao. I am just kidding. I am not that small.

@00:54:48 - Not really my culture (or theirs) to say bless you, but they are in America. So Bless you, Tae. lol

~00:55:00 - Okay. Just for a second, let's appreciate the two different reactions to this story. Hobi and Tae both think Jimin's story is funny. While Hobi is not looking at Jimin while laughing, Tae keeps his eyes on Chim the whole time. And. Ugh. I can't help it. Let me appreciate Hobi's precious laugh. :D

~00:56:35 - Vmin stans. Just appreciate vmin leaning into each other when Tae sits back on the couch again.

~00:57:20 - Enjoy some ji/hope talking while Tae looks at his phone. This is a really cute moment of them just talking, and more of Hobi's precious laughter. There's so much trust here. I don't even let people look at my phone screen. Not even my sisters lol. I'm too private ;; I'm working on it it's just an anxiety thing..seriously. You guys are even lucky I share my thoughts here. I get anxious about such this, which is why I disappeared when I got too much going on in my askbox with all the hate I was getting....but I'm good now...and now that I got that off my chest, let's move on.

~00:58:50 - Hobi telling us to get some sleep because it's late. It was late in my time when they did this, but I watched it. And even now that I'm rewatching this part and typing this, I really should be in bed instead lmao. But alas. Here I am. Thanks for looking out for me though, Hobi. You are a true friend.

~00:59:40 - During the time on the couch, Hobi keeps moving forward and leaning back, but at some points, he's leaning into Jimin, too. So there's more Ji/hope for your hearts content. Tae is on Weverse at the moment, so most of this time is actually Hobi and Jimin interacting with each other, with Tae quietly leaning into Jimin and surfing Weverse.

~01:04:30 - Tae is talking about Kook and speak of the devil lol Kook finally decides to join the live. Seriously. I was about to give up hope of this happening lmao I'm assuming they're not hanging out with the door open because you can hear the door being unlocked. So does Kook just have a key to Hobi's room? They don't make 7+ copies of hotel room keys (because that would not be very secure, two is usually the limit), so I doubt that the members just have keys to each other's rooms. Yet. Kook seems to have a copy of Hobi's room key. Or the door was unlocked...but I'm not even sure if that would be possible. I've never tried to unlock a hotel room door before (to where no card key is needed to enter).

~01:04:50 - Kook finally shows his face to the camera! Hi baby! You look so cute after your workout lol There's some bantering about Jimin losing weight, and the fact that he ate. Kook has an overdramatic reaction to it. I imagine they probably had a deal to "keep each other" to some kind of plan, and Jimin betrayed him. lol But it's whatever and they shake over it.

~01:05:00 - Hobi moves off the couch to let Kookie sit. Is he moving to let Kookie have a seat on the couch instead of forcing him to sit on the floor after his workout? Or is he moving to let Kook sit next to his boyfriend Jimin? *coughs*Hopekook is real, so I'm gonna go with the first one*coughs* What? I didn't say anything. *coughs*but that's what I was getting at with the hotel key anyway*coughs* What? Hobi's probably just being a sweetie and letting Kook sit on the couch since he was just working out before that. Hobi is a sweet boyfriend like that.

~01:05:17 - Then we have Kook leaning into Jimin for some Ji/kook moment. uwu

~01:05:53 - There you go. Our TK moment. Tae saying that he gave a certain workout a try after learning it from Kook. And Kook even complementing him (or teasing him? I can't really tell) uwu either way they are too sweet. ouo

~01:06:00 - Kook excited about getting a boxing partner when Jimin starts boxing lol He is too cute

Anyway. I've not got time for a few more time stamps because I really do need to go to sleep and I need to wrap this up. There's a few more cute moments in here. You've got Kook wanting to go take a shower, and Tae tries to leave, too. Kook insists that he stays and finishes the live with them since he started it with them, and Kook actually ends up staying to the end, too.

Overall, this was a very entertaining live. I'm disappointed that Kook wasn't a part of it until approximately the last 10 minutes, but oof. It was so good to seem them just interacting and talking and telling stories. And doing the little quiz thing that I didn't time stamp in here, but it happens when Hobi and Jimin are in their own little world together with Tae looking through Weverse.

Anyway. That's it guys.
