A bullet train from Seoul to Busan, late morning, The world outside the window melts into a blur of emerald hills and slate rooftops, the train’s rhythmic hum a steady pulse beneath the chatter of passengers. Jimin slouches in his seat, his leather jacket zipped tight, the sealed letter—addressed “To Tae, from J” hidden against his chest. His dark eyes scan the carriage, sharp and restless, a rebel’s edge masking the fire of his mission. Hoseok sits across, scrolling through his phone, digging into DMZ archives, his camera slung over his shoulder like a faithful companion. The air carries the faint tang of coffee and the rustle of newspapers, a cocoon carrying them toward answers
jimin’s mind crackles with Yoongi’s stories from Seoul.. Jungkook, an orphan who became a nation’s hero, leading missions with a heart forged in loss. The letter in his jacket is a challenge, a test for Park Jimin who is dancer, troublemaker, the kid who never gets caught. His journalist lie, crafted to keep the letter’s secret, sits easy, but Yoongi’s tales of Jungkook’s grit have snagged him, a spark he hides behind a defiant smirk
hoseok glancing up from his laptop looking at jimin and started grinning
Jung Hosoek
Found some DMZ reports, ‘05. Border was chaos skirmishes, rogue factions, peace talks on a knife’s edge. Jungkook must’ve been a force. Yoongi’s stories about his missions? Pure gold. We’re meeting Seokjin in Busan and I'm sure he’ll have more
Jimin is leaning back,and his voice dry
Park jimin
Gold? Sounds like a lot of war and sweat. Jungkook was tough, I’ll give him that. Yoongi better not have oversold this Seokjin guy. I’m not here to waste time
Hoseok’s grin widens, catching the steel in Jimin’s tone. He knows Jimin’s stubborn streak, the way he digs in when challenged, and the faint intrigue beneath his bravado
Jung Hosoek
Waste time? You’re glued to this, Jimin-ah. Jungkook’s a legend, and you’re dying to know more. Admit it...you’re hooked just like me.. 😌
hosoek teased earning a scoff from jimin... his eyes flicking to the window, his smirk sharp. He’s not about to let Hoseok see the flicker of awe Yoongi’s words sparked Jungkook’s courage, his orphan heart. His softness is buried, locked behind pride
Park jimin
Hooked? I don’t quit, Hobi. Jungkook’s story got him a letter that lasted 20 years. That’s worth chasing. Let’s make Seokjin count
The letter’s weight presses against his chest, a secret he guards like a blade. The train hums, carrying them to Busan, to Seokjin, to the next piece of a story that burns
Hoseok’s screen is a chronicle of Jungkook’s soul—missions of blood and sacrifice, an orphan’s heart that defies the DMZ’s scars. Jimin leans over, his eyes razor-sharp, scanning each word, his scowl a shield for the fire Yoongi’s tales have ignited. He’s Park Jimin—stubborn, unyielding, never caught—but the stories are current, pulling him under. Jungkook’s missions unfold like a film, each scene raw and vivid in Jungkook’s voice, his desperate, life-risking fight to save others a pulse Jimin feels in his bones. The victims’ tears, their cries, Jungkook’s tension they’re real, and Jimin’s there, a ghost in the dust, watching a hero risk everything
Jung Hosoek
Yoongi gave us everything, Jimin-ah. Jungkook’s missions—minefields, snipers, floods, landslides, clashes. It’s not just action—it’s heart. Every soul he saved… I’m saving every detail. Seokjin’s next, but this is already legendary
Park jimin
How many times you are going to say this...
Jung Hosoek
Because I became a die hard fan for this jungkook guy.. I don't know about you.. But I'm going to write a goddamn book on this guy..
Park jimin
Legendary? It’s a damn war zone. Jungkook was built different, though. Keep it tight, Hobi—I’m reading it all. Miss a word, and you’re buying me tteokbokki
Hoseok laughs, his enthusiasm a spark against Jimin’s edge, sensing the awe beneath the gruffness. Jimin’s hand hovers near his jacket, the letter’s secret safe, his mind diving into Jungkook’s world. The café dissolves, the jukebox’s hum swallowed by the DMZ’s roar—2005, a wasteland of wire and will, Jungkook’s voice a beacon through the storm
