🐹 if you were driving a train and jimin was tied to one track and there were 10 strangers on the other
🐻 i'd switch the tracks immediately
🐹 towards who?
🐻 the strangers
🐹 make it 10 strangers
🐻 still strangers
🐹 20?
🐻 id still do it
🐹 100?
🐻 i dont think id have a choice...
🐹 how about 1000 people vs jimin?
🐻 wouldn't they be able to stop the train?
🐥 once it gets to 100 people just have the train come toward me
🐥 actually no.. not 100 people.. just me
this is seriously taking me out 😭😭
the only thing armys can really do at this point in keep the album alive. don’t partake in negative conversations about the album, keep streaming and don’t let it fall off the charts and keep voting and hyping up those insider choices when arirang in mentioned
