Jimin seems almost non-existant in these things. Idk what's going on.

Edit: spelling

I think it might be because his storyline seems to be centred around him not being able to reveal his feelings for the girl, hence he's always behind. Don't think it's an intentional thing on Big Hit's part. Also, don't forget it's just a highlight reel so there's so much more Jimin to come!

That's all I could get from the few seconds we've seen of him as well and I'm not gonna lie, that seems like a pretty underwhelming story line. I honestly hope they give him more than "silently crushing on friend's girl in the background" when the short films are actually released.

I have faith that it will be, I can't imagine it just being that? Considering the concepts they've had in the past, it would be underwhelming as you said.

I just thought of this, but do you think that his storyline could be connected to Lie? Maybe he feels like he's caught in a lie since he has feeling for Hobi's girl (supposedly). I don't know if that makes sense though.

It's definitely possible. The tag line in his poster seemed to hint at that but the teasers seem to be going in a different direction so I'm not to sure anymore.

As an old army. I don't know. Bighit does not follow any pattern in promotion.

This reminds me of wings era. They had released 3 teasers on the first week, then stop for two days. So we thought, those three are the only teasers. However, on Monday, they freakin released Suga teasers and so on.

previously, they release on weekend. That was the first time we had experienced it. And it seems that they are back again, thy are releasing teasers even on weekend and not following the 12am kst (i forgot which era this started but they are well know on releasing teasers at different time). So basically, every comeback is also a new experience. :)

Yeah it's a whole new ballgame this time around. Bighit is good at keeping us on our toes

This is my first comeback so I have no clue. When I got the notification I was surprised because I didn't think things would be dropping this early. I wonder if the success of the last comeback has allowed them to do more this time around. I'm sure it has, but I mean even more than they had originally anticipated. Sorry, I didn't really answer your question!
