This is when I think things start getting more interesting in my opinion. Something important to keep in mind that I'll be sharing moments, AND my personal opinions, along with facts. My opinions are my own. You can agree or disagree. I encourage you to go and check it all out, see this content for yourself as well and form your own opinions during this time frame too. I will be splitting this up into 3 different posts probably to manage the length and be able to add more links/photos in each post. This will be part 2, including some of the moments from May through August in 2014. This is so so long. I'm so sorry!
Starting off on May 1st, a magazine interview is released from Ize Magazine. You can find the translations for the article here(https://yoonstone.wordpress.com/2014/05/01/140501-bts-ize-co-kr-magazine-interview-10-qa-each-member/) . It was a fairly candid interview I think. Definitely worth reading. They had a group interview and then 10 questions to each member. The only part I'll draw attention to IN HERE is the fact that Jimin casually brings up Jungkook often in his interview questions as well as addressing his teasing between 3J where he says that "I always lose when it comes to words, so I've just accepted it. I would appreciate it if they didn't tease me more than they do now." As well as the question where they again ask Jimins thoughts about the maknae ranking him 7th in looks. Jimin talks about how yes its a little hurtful everytime he does this. The other thing I will say is that girls get mentioned in this interview alot since their theme for Boy in Luv and Just One Day is about love. It also gets brought up how they dressed up in women's clothes during Rookie King, and Jimin mentions that he would look pretty as a girl. Jimin has always had a very healthy outlook on what masculinity is, even during this whole tough muscle-y Busan man image he was trying to portray during the early years. This interview just gives another interesting look into their thoughts and dynamics all together as well as the way they tease each other.
On May 5th, they have the K-Poppin radio Interview it is about 36 minutes long if you haven't seen the whole thing yet. The only part I want to draw your attention to though is about 19:30 seconds in. The MC asks them to close their eyes and imagine they could go anywhere in the world with anyone they want. The rest of the members all answer and jikook answer last. Jimin gives his answer which was that he would be looking at the Beach holding hands with Jungkookie. Which set the host off into awkward giggles and the rest of the members cringed just a bit. Lol Jimin just smiled over at JK. He meant that. What is interesting is that the host didn't fully translate that either. She left out the holding hands bit during her translation. You can see the full translation on Twitter though. When asked if JK would also pick the same thing, he said no, that his dream spot would be to go on a trip with his older brother he misses. And right after he says that though, he does reach out and grasp onto Jimins hand. Like a comforting gesture, to reassure him that it wasn't a rejection that JK didn't want to spend time with Jimin, it's just that if he got to wish for anything, would want to see his family, who he does not get to see hardly at all anymore because they are so busy.
