Theory about Biases Theory
So I’m a baby ARMY (around a month). When I discovered BTS, I was at home recovering from surgery. I’m an older ARMY (in my 40s). I quickly realized my bias - JIN. Now, I didn’t have anyone to talk to about my new obsession so I was bursting when I finally went back to work.
Luckily I work at a school, so I quickly found the ARMY pre-teens and we started gushing. I’ve never seen them so animated! They asked me who my bias was and I told them. They all shrieked in judgment and collectively tried to convince me that liking Jin is weird and that Jungkook was the ONLY one worth talking about. (Teenagers, LOL)
First of all, I was shocked bc I didn’t know how popular Jungkook was and that a Jin bias is a bit of a minority (maybe?). My solo discovery into the BTS realm led me to believe the only obvious bias was Jin.
During this hot discussion, I saw one girl jumping down my throat. I asked her what she thought. And in a totally serious tone says - “It makes sense that you like Jin, he’s the oldest one and you’re the oldest person at this school.” Brutal! She proceeds to tell me that older people like Jin and young people like Jungkook.
So tell me - is her theory true? Do you’ll think that younger ARMY lean towards Jungkook and older ones to Jin?

I JUST learned what a noona army is!
If what you say is true, I must tell a lot of dad jokes! 😂
All kidding aside, your theory is true but I think I need to add something else (for me). Jin is the person most like me but also something I aspire to be more like. I like how Jin is so goofy(in a good way). I’m kinda goofy but I want to lean more into that, you know? Read the room and turn up the goof if the mood needs to be changed.
