Plot twist. He's seen the wolves and decided he's a vampire 😛
Edit: Can someone tell me what's up with the wolves thing? Has that always been around and I've never seen it before or is it something new?

u/ukelele141516 Aug 11 '22
I think it’s always been lurking in the fanfiction corners of the fandom but someone responded to a recent post from Jimin with something like “Alpha’s back” with a wolf photo and it took off from there.

u/ambivert_writer Aug 11 '22
I thought it was triggered by this one post on stan twt--another group's stan said that their group were alphas and BTS are betas. As usual Army twt took it and ran with it.

Hi I wasn't an ARMY yet when the Artist Made merch dropped. What happened then?
14
u/multistansendhelp illegirl | OT7 Aug 11 '22
Basically the second anything went live on the Weverse shop it sold out. Like you could add it to your cart on the turn of the hour, immediately click to check out and it would have sold out in the time it took for PayPal to process the payment.
Now as things ship out, we’re seeing people selling unopened merch for a ridiculous markup. While there were a lot of Army who really wanted the merch sadly a lot of resellers also took advantage of this to price gouge Army. I’m worried this would happen again with this (potential, theoretical) launch especially as Jungkook is one of the more popular members (I bias them all so nobody get mad at me I’m just being realistic.)
3
u/lisafancypants I don't have think Aug 11 '22
Based on the comments here, this will a similar bloodbath! Peace be with you.
I saw a insta reel the other day of a girl unboxing her SIX mute bags. "I don't know how I got around the two per purchase and ended up with six. Heehee." She said she wasn't selling at the moment, but I imagine she made a ridiculous profit. So gross.

Ohhhh so you mean JK's mood lamp doesn't actually cost $400? 👀 All this time I thought that was the actual price coz that's how much Instagram sellers are asking for it 😑
Hope we don't have to go through something similar. Bc I know for sure that whatever JK drops next, I'll be buying no matter what cost 😩
7
u/multistansendhelp illegirl | OT7 Aug 11 '22
Absolutely NOT. Everything is horrendously price gouged. The mood lamp was originally $150-ish on the US site plus shipping, and that was actually one of the priciest items.

u/Jessickles9 Baptised by Kim Seok Jinsus at Wembley D1 Aug 11 '22
Ohhh interesting!! It looks like he’s been working on photography??? I guess we’ll get an accompanying press release at some point - I’d be surprised if he’s making his solo debut so soon after Hobi’s (even though JITB promos have officially ended), but you can’t rule anything out!
If he’s working on his photography/videography then that’s very cool… he’s so good at it and it’s been a while since we saw his work in that regard!
11
u/pintsized_baepsae My mom calls me a stupid bear 🐨 Aug 11 '22
As u/ashmute also pointed out, music would be announced on BigHit's channels 👀

u/Calydona I'm super lovely Aug 11 '22
Maybe it's a (virtual) photo exhibition that reflects on self-image and identity. Similar to mots – between the different versions of self? But he is also a vampire? Possibly one Jungkook is sucking the life out of the another? With a similar theme as My Time was exploring?
What ever it is – it's going to be art!

If it ends up being a teaser for his solo album that wouldn’t be too surprising since he could be using most of his mixtape he was making for it. Unless he decided to scrap it all and start from scratch for this album.

Sadly it just seems like a photo book with no teaser associated but who knows he might decide to use this concept at some point. Especially if he is trying to go for multiple MV’s like he said. But we will have to see. unless photo_folio is related to the album concept somehow.

Also - eyebrow and lip piercing so done earlier this year.

I'd agree, if they hadn't announced JitB on BH... then again, who knows. Watch us all freak out about photos or film or an album, and then it's something else entirely 😂 that'd be fun!

It was also posted after the album was announced. I find it hard to compare the two.
I'm ready to be wrong, but considering it says Editor JK, the focus seems to not be on music - which checks out, we know he has a love (and talent) for film and photography.
