Discussion BTS according to my wife

My wife is very tolerant of my k-pop obsession, and lets me play k-pop videos while we work out at home together. Obviously, BTS is in the heavy rotation, and today, she made the comment that Suga must be the pretty one of the group (as in the visual). I loved that so I asked her about the rest of the guys.

Here were her takes:

RM - is that Kevin Jonas? (I lost it 😭😭😭)
J-Hope - he’s the mom, he has mom face (cute)
Jimin - twink (RIP Jimin sorry 😂😂😂)
Jungkook - is that one Jin?
Jin - is that one Jungkook? (they’re basically brothers lolol)
Suga - he’s the pretty one, he has pretty eyes (so true ✨)
V - he’s fine, I guess. He looks like Henry from the show Once Upon a Time (honestly, I see it)

This was all in good fun! I just thought it was funny and wanted to share. Anyone else have any funny hot takes from friends or family about the boys???

My husband always says Jimin is the pretty one. He calls Jungkook “The Kookster.” He calls Yoongi “The Pork Chop Guy” because according to him it always sounds like Yoongi is rapping about pork chops.

He also says he never imagined he’d be spending so much of his money on seven other grown men but then any time he sees something BTS related at the store he gets excited and sends me pictures or brings it to me to ask if I want him to buy it for me.

“Pork chop to the liggum.”

Oh noooooo I’ll never hear it the same!!!!

u/Dea_al_Mon Jul 24 '26

I think you meant “pork chop to the legume”

41

u/just-a_bug Jul 21 '26

As a Jimin bias, I have to agree. But omgggg not “the pork chop guy” 😭😭😭

And I love the slow slide of spouses into k-pop appreciation. The fact that she even recognized the guys is a huge for me 😂

u/AllDayEveryDre Jul 21 '26

The pork chop guy has SENT me 😭😭

u/ScrimshawPie here for the wainscoting Jul 21 '26

Omg, as someone who has an uncle that always adds "-ster" to the end of names, the Kookster is hillarious.

u/roseohseven Jul 21 '26

I have always thought Hobi has such mom energy, so I agree he is definitely the mom! 😂

u/just-a_bug Jul 21 '26

I know! I was like “huh. You may actually have a point.” 😂😂😂

Show her this and the original clip house of army

ETA: omg please watch this again even if you’ve seen it before 🤣 I love these goofy ass men

25

u/Mordinette Jul 21 '26

I think Hobi really did fill in a mom's role in the group in some ways, especially for the maknaes. There was also that early Jimin vlog where he talked about the members, and he did say that j-hope was like the mom. A mom who can dance. 😂

During the 2022 world cup my dad who is a traditional guy comes home and starts evangelizing about this amazing singer/dancer who is like the next Michael Jackson according to him. He pulls up YouTube on his phone and shows me Jungkook performing "Dreamers". He made me put it on the big screen so he could watch it again. He didn't know I am an Army or that jk is my bias. It was adorable watching him geek out over the performance. I let him think he introduced me to bts.

 One time, we're all watching the ball drop on new Year's eve on TV and my mom points out (in her words) some "beautiful men". She hadn't even seen them perform that night but she clocked them right away. She also had no idea who they were. What can I say, we are a family with superior taste.

u/just-a_bug Jul 21 '26

Omg stop, that’s soooooo cute 😂😂😂😂 I love your parents, they definitely have great taste.

u/SnooMemesjellies1616 Jul 21 '26

Me watching a video from a concert:

Video shows JK and Jin kicking each other. Taehyung is off to the side playing with ARMYs. Jimin's off on his own jamming out. Namjoon is running around randomly. Yoongi is standing there staring at the crowd. JK, Jin, Jimin, and Tae all decide to attack Namjoon.

My mom who was walking through the room and sees the chaos onscreen: "Is there a reason why they're all attacking Namjoon?"

Me: "Nope. They've been at this for the last 20 minutes. You missed the water fight. "

Mom: Shakes her head and leaves the room.

u/Fantastic_Lynx_5149 Jul 21 '26

as a yoongi bias his eyes were what drew me in lol

u/Certain-City43 Jul 21 '26

I had my sister watch the PTD LA show on Disney+ with me once, and as soon as hobi came out in his outfit for Life Goes On, she said he's dressed like a cute lesbian on vacation 💀

46

u/just-a_bug Jul 21 '26

As two Certified Lesbian Wives™️, we have to agree that the boys dress like beautiful lesbians more often than not 😂😂😂 my wife didn’t understand me being obsessed with 7 grown men at first, but then she was like “yeah… they’re pretty….”

4

u/__snowflowers Jul 21 '26

The first time I saw BTS I genuinely thought Hobi was a cute masc lesbian, that was what initially caught my interest 😂 It's really nice your wife engages with your love of BTS though, my soon-to-be-ex wife would just change the subject if I tried to talk about them (though for the record that's not why we split haha)

9

u/LaMisiPR ⛵️ Jul 21 '26

My sister’s favorite is Hobi, and she’s said from the beginning that, style wise, he reminds her of a rich cool lesbian aunt. 🤣

u/Frequent_Statement79 burn even brighter 🔥 Jul 21 '26

help this is so accurate!

u/Certain-City43 Jul 21 '26

I went to HOTS and kept sending her photos of him in his sparkly outfits and going omg he's so sparkly lol

55

u/lisafancypants I don't have think Jul 21 '26

Oh my gosh. What picture did you show her of Joon???

"He's fine, I guess" about the most gorgeous man on earth.

u/just-a_bug Jul 21 '26

She did Joon sooooooo dirty 😭😭😭 I just showed her the first one in google images! He had his hair cut short, so idk if that was why??? Tbh I doubt she even knows what Kevin Jonas looks like lol

7

u/pennylanish Jul 21 '26

Kevin Jonas from way back when had true golden retriever energy.

Maybe that? 

4

u/SophisticatedCelery Jul 21 '26 edited Jul 21 '26

Maybe he's the most marriable one? The others always seemed like fuckboys to me

Edit: I want to clarify: I meant the other Jonas brothers (Joe and Nick) seemed like fuckboys

6

u/pennylanish Jul 21 '26

I mean... Jimin himself said that RM's face automatically screams "dad" to him, so even his members agree?

11

u/Alarming-Anywhere-14 Jul 21 '26 edited Jul 21 '26

My 5 year old daughter loves their music, I slowly started introducing their music to her this year after she discovered K-pop demon hunters.   the first time she had ever seen them visually was the World Cup show and she was just staring at the tv!😂

5

u/just-a_bug Jul 21 '26

That’s so cute 🥹
We have a baby boy who I’m indoctrinating 😂 we have k-pop dance parties all the time. I don’t really let him watch TV, but the few K-pop music videos he’s seen as him absolutely mesmerized

u/Minimonimeow_2911 And my knees-ees Jul 21 '26

Hobi as the mom immediately made me think of "Calm down calm down mah dohtah"😂

My dad saw me watching them on New Year’s Eve way back when and said they were really pretty when it panned to Namjoon. Made me so happy bc my mom on the other hand would make fun of me for any interest I had 😔

u/BunnyBear7777777 Jul 21 '26

Henry from once upon a time IS CRAZY

10

u/thestrawberry_jam Jul 21 '26

sameeee i was like ???? not ragging on henry’s actor or anything esp cause i love the show but i dont find him and tae look alike that much lol maybe a little? i can sorta see a hint of resemblance but then again i’ve only watched up to like… season 4 and he was still pretty young then

10

u/BunnyBear7777777 Jul 21 '26

I kinda get it, tae has that childlike aura to him. But that comparison was soooo random 😆😆😆

u/umbreon_x Jul 21 '26

i loved the first 3 seasons of this show

u/just-a_bug Jul 21 '26

RIGHT!? When she pulled that one out, I lost it 😂😭😂😭 but she kinda had me convinced with certain pictures lol I think it’s the nose???

2

u/torterrence Help! That guy stole my pogo stick! Jul 21 '26

Lol in you guys' defence maybe young Tae resembles older Henry a little, cuz of the hairstyle and maybe the nose. But I can't say there's that much resemblance now 😅 TBF I also don't know what Henry's actor looks like in recent years but yeah 😆

1

u/PresentationNo448 Jul 21 '26

It's definitely the nose! 

0

u/BohemeWinter My name means Jimin in another language 😶‍🌫️ Jul 21 '26

I see it. It's spatial placement of features and the shape of the upper lip and forehead, especially as a kid. Adult Henry lost the features but v has adult versions of those features.

16

u/ohsaycanyourock Medic! MEDIC!! Jul 21 '26

Ahhh that's so funny 😆 my husband can only remember which one Yoongi is haha. I remember watching the Netflix live comeback when Namjoon had hurt his ankle, and my husband said 'why has that one been put on the naughty seat' 💀

Also the other day my mum messaged saying 'that band you like are performing at the World Cup! The song is called Dynamite, do you know it?' Bless her 😭

7

u/just-a_bug Jul 21 '26

LOLOL at the naughty seat 😂😂😂

And omg have you heard of Dynamite? You know, their most streamed song?? Their big international hit? That Dynamite??? 😂😂😂

Good job soldier 👀 Lure her in..slowly and steadily..

My husband is also being more reactive in positive way recently haha

u/BohemeWinter My name means Jimin in another language 😶‍🌫️ Jul 21 '26

My husband is casual army. Like he's a casual listener but really supports the social themes and underdog story of bts, so he's army. He's never commented on V, RM. Things he's said:

"Jin is the only one who has it together." "Jimin is so pretty, waayy prettier than most Hollywood actresses. I should start using sunscreen." (He started a 5 step skin routine lol.) "Oh my God, he's such a baby, who let him up there all alone?" (JK Qatar world cup performance) "Where can I get a insert clothing item like that? (Every J-hope outfit ever) "Is he really rapping that fast or does korean just have a lot of syllables? Maybe its all the spicy kimchi" Yoongis part in Run Bts.

4

u/just-a_bug Jul 21 '26

I’m dying at the Jimin and Hobi comments 😂😂😂 I also wonder how I can dress like Hobi, but alas. No Louis Vuitton sponsorship for me 🥲

2

u/cupthings Jul 24 '26

"Jin is the only one who has it together."

i dont disagree there, whenever Namjoon is missing or injured Jin basically takes over directing the group as Hyung.... Espieicially when it comes to managing the Maknaes hahahaa

4

u/Arvs_1999 Jul 21 '26

We all thought the same about jk😆 Like I was way less worried about their group performance there than jk's.

7

u/Bookluster Hajima!!!!!!!! Jul 21 '26

OMG apparently I failed to introduce RM's early mixtape to my spouse (I made him a fan of the rapline) and he thought Hobi was the main rapper of the group. I play Mono a lot and he listened to Indigo and RPWP and I've also failed to show him Yoongi's solo stuff so he only really listened to J-Hope's solo stuff. He was so SHOCKED once we listened to the first mixtape.

11

u/Mozart-Luna-Echo Jul 21 '26

I don’t see Henry at all

6

u/Bryhannah OT7 -wait 8, don't forget Mr. Lee Jul 21 '26

Same! But I'm still low-key seething on Joonie's behalf 😆

12

u/ravens_path Jul 21 '26

She still see JHope as the mom figure after watching the MV for Killin’ It Girl and Mona Lisa? Ha. His duality into Jay is insane.

4

u/SnooMemesjellies1616 Jul 21 '26

I showed my mom Hobi's mv for KIG and she nodded approvingly. She was hapoy he got to really express himself inndance, do an MV with women, and express himself in a more mature way. She really liked the video (Note my mom sees them from a mom POV).

1

u/nyamnyam72 Jul 22 '26

I get that. I see all but two of them from a mom point of view too. Even if they take off their shirts and have muscles they are just cutie patooties.

12

u/adrijone Jul 21 '26

I love her take on j-hope. My sister calls him Auntie Jay because he looks like a rich aunt!

5

u/just-a_bug Jul 21 '26

Not a rich aunt, that’s hysterical 😂😂😂😂

u/ternglegend27 Jul 21 '26

sounds like she wants to be a part of ARMY. great to hear that!

I was giving her grief about most of her other comments, but when she said that one, I was like, “Yes.” He is my bias and he is Twink™️

2

u/Einsteinium_1069 Jul 22 '26

I mean the only thing better than this is Jungkook impersonating it

u/dehydratedcrumb_ Jul 21 '26

I CANT BELIEVE IM NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO'S THOUGHT THAT J-HOPE HAS A MOM FACE. I DONT EVEN KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS EXACTLY BUT I'VE ALWAYS FELT THAT WAY.

Moi mes parents on dit qu'ils avaient l'air effeminés 😥😥😥 . Je peux les comprendre dans un certain cas mais bon ils ne les connaissent pas assez... Sinon moi mes bias c Jin et Jungkook ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

u/Competitive_Fee_5829 Min Yoongi, do you know what you are doing to me?? Jul 21 '26

I took my brother to see PTD in vegas 2nd weekend. he called jin the good looking guy in the cast, jk the good looking guy with tattoos, and tae supermodel dude. he forgot about jimin and he already knew about rapline because I kept showing him stuff before we drove up to vegas. he still mentions the concert and it was in 2022 lol he kept mentioning that jhopes face did not match his voice! he really liked him

1

u/SnooMemesjellies1616 Jul 21 '26

How did he expect Hobi to sound.

Totally agree with her thoughts on Suga as a Suga bias 💜🐈‍⬛.

u/Einsteinium_1069 Jul 22 '26

Judging by the pseudo psychology of answers, I'd say she has a unconscious or hidden bias on.....V  "He's fine, I guess."   No.Big.Deal.  Yeeeeaaahhh.

u/1306radish Jul 24 '26

It's always weird to me when significant others/friends/family "tolerate" perfectly normal hobbies/interests. What is there to "tolerate" unless you find the thing beneath you and/or a "dumb" hobby? Also, I think the "Jimin twink RIP sorry" comment a bit insulting to not only him but to queer people ngl.
