"Why is he your favourite member?"

- Picking a favourite group photo is far too hard, so I chose to pick a picture of my bias instead. But then explaining why he's my bias is even harder, haha. I'll try to cut it short; I apologise in advance if I get too carried away. After all, I've been planning to write something, anything about Hoseok and why I love him. Getting to post this might be one of the main reasons I decided to join this giveaway, hehehe. Anyways - 'short' story time.

How Hoseok became my bias or 'favourite member' in the first place is probably kinda absurd? Welp, when I first got to know Bangtan, all I saw was Jin. I only knew Jin and the famous Golden Maknae who I didn't really favour back then (kick old me pls). Hence when I came across this horoscope compatibility thing on AFF, though I don't believe in horoscopes and stuff like that, I genuinely wanted Jin to be my best match. 'Unfortunately', I was devastated to see that Jin came second - my best match was/is, indeed, this guy wearing a spiky mask apparently named J-Hope. I was like, "What is this sorcery?!?!" "Who even is this guy?!" because duh, I wanted Seokjinie. However, thanks to that horoscope thing, I naturally began paying more attention to that guy named J-Hope. After a while of denying my Hoseok feels and staying loyal to only Jin, he climbed up the chart and shared the same position as Jin. Soon enough, I think around Hormone War era, I accepted willingly that he's that special first out of seven.

Now, unnecessary parts away, time to answer the question 'why'. Sigh. Man. I have way too many reasons that I can't seem to type them down directly. First off, probably the easiest answer, it's simply because my heart chose him. Cliché much? Yet it's the truth. Like every other ARMY, you can't just choose one. I have my days where it's back to Jin, then it's Jimin making me smile like a lovesick fool, quickly after I'm squealing over Namjoon, then it's Taehyung I'm drooling over, afterwards Yoongi makes me melt and then Jungkook gives me emotions I can't describe with a dictionary worth of vocabulary. But my heart chose Hoseok - the other six are everywhere in my heart, they're all bias wreckers, but not one can steal Hoseok's place that has been latched onto my heart firmly, permanently, not able to be shaken even the slightest. It's my mind that thinks about him, it's my soul that can't live without him and it's my heart that loves him entirely without me even having to try to adore him.

Second, his personality. Another cliché answer? Meh. It's legit for me. I mean, I still remember when I was still in the process of knowing Bangtan and I watched their elevator prank and when Hoseok came on, I laughed so hard because he was ridiculously hilarious. Of course it was, I'd never seen any other guy dancing so weirdly and laying down on the floor when another person wants to get into the elevator. I love how he's not afraid to be shameless, not afraid to be crazy and not minding other people (coughBangtan'scough) judging. I love how he's so fun, a really good sport and pretty much the life of the party - plus the sunshine planted in him; always smiling, always laughing, always brightening the atmosphere, this side of him never fails to warm my heart. Especially on a bad day, his wide grin and nearly closing eyes give me amazing comfort. The boys' happiness are a part of my happiness, yes, but Hoseok being happy just lightens up my whole world. I remember when a friend asked me if Hoseok's my priority and I replied something like If I had to choose between starving for 5 days or Jung Hoseok's eternal happiness, I would choose the latter in the blink of an eye - and you know I can't survive without food. That's how much he means to me. Heck, he means to me what food means to Jin, so obviously he means the entire universe to me.
Ah, not just his silly personality. When he's not being all ahing~ bbuing bbuing, Hobi loves ARMY! <33, he's a professional in working. I admire how he works hard to perfect his talents that are amazing enough. So far the only thing that he can't do is, y'know, not be scared of everything. Other than that, rap, dance, sing, act, beatbox, write lyrics, girl group choreography, and many other things... dayum, he's a Golden Horse indeed. He's even a pro nagger. So many talents and he still remains humble; other ARMYs can confirm this, I'm sure. Speaking of which, another reason why I can't help but feel most attached to him: his heart. His kind, thoughtful, soft and big heart. He's sensitive and that's a trait I like about him. He takes care of the members so well, he loves making the fans happy and he's just genuinely such a lovely person. He's a family softie; cries when it comes to his family and I think that's one of the first few reasons that got me to stan him. He spreads such good vibes and that's so admirable, sigh. He's just precious.

Third and last(?), ha, you gotta admit - he's pretty damn hot. He's actually very hot. He doesn't have a flower boy look like JinKook, or a distinctive cutiepie look like YoonMin or a dreamlike handsome look like Taehyung. He and Namjoon are the same on this one; it's their style that makes them super attractive. In Hoseok's case, he's still handsome, I'm not saying he's not. It's just that his style makes him more hot, y'know. Especially when he's being serious while dancing, acting or just standing, it's just... damnnn. And like Namjoon, even if they aren't considered all that good-looking, they have absolutely adorable faces. The way Hoseok's grin stretches, or the tiny dimples that appear when he purses his lips, or when he puckers his lips. Too cute for my heart to handle. And don't get me started on his heavenly voice... that can turn pretty creepy when he's doing aegyo heh. His voice that's just a nice amount of rough and soothing is something I can listen to every day, every hour even.

I may have missed out on many other reasons but I just compiled all my main thoughts into three points. I'm relieved enough to have spilled my heart out onto this blogpost. Man, I love Jung Hoseok so, so, so much. And even if someday I lose my touch with Bangtan, I'll always love these seven boys and screw it, I'm definitely gonna think of Hoseok as my first love. (and, if my delusional fangirl spirit continues to burn, he might be my last ♡)

"If BTS comes to your country and you're the host, where would you bring them?"

- They came to my country a few months ago and obviously I couldn't go, hashtag forever upset over this. ;-)))

Cough. 'Nyways, I would take them... okay, please believe me, I'm being completely serious right now. Not joking one bit. /deep breath
I would take them to spend at least a week at my house. The reason being is that since they're in a foreign country, I'd want them to experience being Malaysians hands on and the easiest way for me to to do that and take care of them is by having them stay near me. I want them to have a chance to live a week as an ordinary person in a Malaysian city. So, when they stay in my house, they can crash in my brother's room. They'll have the chance to eat homemade Malaysian cooking and learn how Malaysian families typically live by watching mine.

Of course, I'll take them to the most famous shopping malls for them to shop and parks/playgrounds for them to relax. I'll get us around with public transport so they can get a taste of Malaysia's commuting life. I'll definitely bring them to mainstream teenager hangout places. I'll take them to the National Museum, there's nothing fun but yeah, the point is experience. Also, Aquaria, an aquarium and PetroSains, basically a place full of Science-y tech stuff that's actually pretty cool; yea, I think the boys would like that. I'll book one day specially for us to visit a neighbouring state, the historical Melaka. They'd enjoy seeing the ancient remains (I won't be lecturing them about history pfft) and I would get them to try a local dessert called cendol, which is more or less Malaysian patbingsu. And the boys really love patbingsu, so. Where else? Ah, in my city, Merdeka Square - an extremely huge field surrounded by some ancient buildings where our country's independence was announced in August 1957. I can imagine the hyperactive boys running around and screaming and chasing each other, a good way for them to let loose. And I'll book one other day simply for us to travel on foot/with public transport around my city so I can demonstrate Malaysian cultures and get them a closer sight at Kuala Lumpur.

On the days that we don't go anywhere, by staying at my house, the boys can live ordinarily without worrying about work or anything. I can imagine Jin learning how to make the Malaysian food he likes from my grandaunt. Yoongi would be lazing on the couch with my dad, watching TV and discussing random things. I see Hoseok helping my mum clean the house or learning how to cross stitch. I'd get Namjoon to sit down with me so we can have heartfelt philosophical conversations as he helps me with schoolwork. Jimin and Taehyung would be playing with my little sister, while Jungkook would be outside with my brother playing football/soccer with the neighbours. This way they can relax and be open to a different lifestyle that's presumably different than what they're used to in Korea - basically my family becomes the boys' foster family and we can directly 'teach' them our ways.

Yeah, this will definitely never happen but I'd really do this if I can. I don't want them to stay at my house so I can be a total creep, but it'll be simpler for them to understand a new culture/lifestyle and like I said, it's the experience that matters. Staying at a five star hotel and going sightseeing isn't the same. I'd want them to fully grasp the typical Malaysian culture by staying with a Malaysian family, geddit? I hope I'm making sense. Okay, I'll stop now, hih.

To shiningstarx if you're reading this, thanks so much for giving oppurtunities like this to ARMYs. You're so kind. And I'm so sorry if you got bored reading my extremely long post, might've enjoyed writing this a bit too much. Frankly speaking, I'll wholeheartedly accept losing because I'm happy enough to show my Bangtan love by writing this. But duh, I'd still love to win, hehehe. ♡
