NGL, I've had to the most to calm the fuck down in order to do a post with a semblance of coherence. Because, this was one of the most happy surprises this show has ever done.
Cuz the idea of SHINee's TAEMIN BEING A GUEST ON SUCHWITA????? LORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRDE! (❤ ω ❤)
*Calming down*
On top of seeing him and SUGA interact, what makes this a MUST-SEE episode can only be brought up bulletpoint style:
* Taemin and Yoongi are both 93z--something that, as mentioned by both of them, is a rarity in K-pop. Not many 1993 folks became idols.
* Taemin is his group's maknae while Yoongi's considered the second oldest (after Jin). So their idol experiences are v. different w/r/t the members' dynamics.
* Taemin is also technically Yoongi's sunbaenim (senior) since SHINee debuted 5 years before BTS.
* Both are v. influential for different reasons that each admire in the other.
It's not like Taemin and Yoongi were total strangers. More like fellow idols who would chit-chat in a general way while doing their respective promotions. If anything, Taemin's connection to BTS is usually focused on his v. close friendship with Jimin.
*Takes a deep breath*
WHICH MAKES JIMIN'S RANDOM APPEARANCE HALFWAY THRU THIS EPISODE A MILLION TIMES AWESOMER. From then on, there's Taemin and Yoongi's nascent friendship, Yoongi and Jimin's bond (no explanation needed), Taemin and Jimin's besties' vibes, and all three having a friendly convo.
This is deffo one of those episodes I've rewatched a few times cuz the tone is lulzy, the conversation goes from introspective to casual, and the overall mood is extremely cordial.
