They usually wear masks when they don't have make up on. For me it's stupid but it's true. Barefaced Jimin is gold. and those eyes...

My guess is that even though they will show their bare faces more an more nowadays, they absolutely hate (or are discouraged from) showing facial hair. So if he hadn't shaved recently, that might be a good enough reason for him to keep his face covered.

I think you should really check out their Vlives. The individual and group ones are great. It's a great way to get to know them better, they share a lot and answer questions from army, the group ones are fun too (one of my personal favs is with Jin and Jimin) they did a bunch of YouTube lives documenting their progress whilst working on the album also. About jimin wearing the mask, covid or not I've noticed it's pretty normal for them, wearing masks casually. Probs because of the high dust index in the country and because theyve gotten accustomed to it. Also this wasn't Yoongi's first surgery, I believe in 2014 (army correct me if I'm wrong) he had surgery for appendicitis.

yes DT you should watch Jimin's Bithday V-live he talks about how they prepare for that online concert, why he got emotional, read Army's comment about his Filter performance.. it's funny and interesting, you don't have to react though - http://www.vlive.tv/video/218944

and asians been wearing masks long before corona. ull see bts wear em often when they dont shave or when theyre having a bad skin day, or sometimes when they dont wear makeup, or even just for fasion.
also no this was not Yoongis first surgery. in like 2014 he had his appendix removed

It’s really funny that you thought he would give us something. They literally never give us anything about the album before it’s dropped so I didn’t expect him to say anything lol. I actually think they have been sharing so much more about this album beforehand than they have in the past. Showing us through livestreams the planning process is definitely new for them and exciting for us. You should watch the other album related YT livestreams.

2020-11-12 12:18:27 +0000 UTC
Wearing masks here in Korea is normal. People wear it for all sorts of reasons besides the recent corona. It could be something simple like he didn't shave and doesn't feel comfortable showing it. Or he doesn't feel well that day and has a mask just in case? Maybe he has a cold sore. In the end, it's his choice. :)

As other's have said they have told us a bit more during their lives about the process of this album etc. I'd say the 2 best lives to watch are these, as they have the most information:
-Back in April they talked about the themes for the album, what kind of subunits they wanted etc. and their roles, it's like 30min
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D7HPWv4apDA&t=5s&ab_channel=BANGTANTV
-In August they had this meeting about the MV, how they wanted to shoot it, what themes would go well with the tittle song, who would be doing what and so on, it's around 10min

Also, about their livestreams, you'll probably get a lot of requests to react to them. Well, most of the time it's the boys reading fans comments, being cute and flirtatious with the camera (specially Jimin and V ). I'm not complaining, we get happy watching them doing nothing lol, but maybe if you're gonna watch some, you'll find more interesting the ones where there's more than one member as it usually is more dynamic. RM's lives that he usually does a few weeks after they release new albums are worth checking, he explains the creative process, talks a bit about each new song, it's fascinating.

Hey DT! I sent you a message a while ago explaining about Jimin being project manager (and how Yoongi played an important role in this decision). Your reaction was funny, we are already used to them being mysterious when a new album is about to drop.
sugaisagenius
2020-11-12 11:41:53 +0000 UTC
hmm don’t think about the mask too much, he probably just preferred to have it on. i don’t micro analyze him and try to find reasonings behind it. to be honest i didn’t even think twice about the mask/not seeing his face when i watched this live. he just wanted to wear it and that’s completely fine as he doesn’t owe us his face, let alone the livestream. we all know they’re working hard to finalize the album, prepare for the album promotions that’ll probably take a couple weeks, and at the same time, start working on the end of the year events. they’re working really hard, probably harder than he’s letting on. just being able to see him and knowing that he was thinking of us enough to want to come and say hi and share as much as he possibly could was very kind of him considering everything. even if he realized that maybe he didn’t have as much to say as he’d hoped. he’s still very cute and you can catch how big he was smiling even with the mask on. i know my general standpoint of not looking too deep into little things for the sake of their minimal privacy can come across as preachy and annoying, especially bc im aware that you know all this already and the mask comments were light hearted and you were obviously kidding, but it’s something for everyone to keep in mind :)

It's not our 1st rodeo. BTS give us about 3% (maybe less🤭) of details about comeback. I checked and I think it was this live 6 months ago: https://youtu.be/kmT-DjWCWek
RM told us that they have the new album and would be showing us some of the process. We got hints to all sort of things to do with the album. Even if we didn't realise. I suggest ARMYs watch the lives to get some background to BE.

i live in japan and in many asian countries we wear mask vor so many other resons waz before corona. often when someone doesnt wear makeup or is tiered or has a skin situation, sometimes also when you just dont want to show much face. or in winter when its cold, to warm up XD
Kimia
2020-11-12 10:44:39 +0000 UTC
It’s very obvious that you haven’t watched the other YouTube live-streams where the members talk about this new comeback so I would recommend that you take some time to catch up and watch them. Each member has a different role (pm stands for project manager) in this comeback for example JK’s role is to do with the music video and I think V’s role is to do with the concept photos. If you want to know more about the music video I would say you should watch the recent Jungkook YouTube livestream where he talked a lot about it.

Fyi, DT.. Jimin is best when it comes to not giving spoilers about comebacks and any BTS content 😀 he did livestreams with RM in the past and RM would accidentally spoil something 😅 but Jimin would never ever say anything, instead he will try to avoid the discussion so that RM would not spoil more.
You can see what im talking about here. Please pay attention to Jimin’s reactions and expressions. This is just funny. 😅

Another reason for the mask could also be, currently in Korea, it is mandatory to wear a mask in any communal place or enclosed communal areas (e.g. stations, elevators, cafes when not eating, offices) except for during certain activities (e.g. eating, washing your face, doing a broadcast etc). If not doing such things on the list you need to keep your mask on, esp when talking, or you can pay a fine. Their office could be following this restriction. The restriction changes depending on the level of safety and what the government says. Or since he didn't wear a mask last time and he was bare faced so maybe he just didn't feel like taking it off this time. Who knows. Anyway, it seems like jimin just wanted to pop in and say hey, and soon realised there's not much to update us on without spoiling things :). Hope he does another live soon

They never really reveal too much info about the album.. except concept photos and the MV teaser.. This is just the way they do it.. And its effective cos it makes us look forward to their comeback and the album more.
By the way, if you want a Jimin livestream without a mask, you should check out the one he did on Vlive for his birthday. His bare face was so pretty and glowing. 🥰

sometimes they are ok with barefaced, depending on their situation. i remembered watching RM's live 3 years ago, when jimin came into RM's studio and he was covering his face with both hands cos he was not wearing make up.

Jimin can get very self-conscious about his appearance. If he's not wearing makeup or he hasn't shaved or he has a pimple, he will keep the mask on. When he's on Vlive and does longer videos, ARMY will start asking him to take off the mask. That's usually when he'll admit why he's still wearing it. He said that he was just doing this during a break, so he intended it to be short and that may be why he chose to keep the mask on.

They usually never spoil anything too much about the album (with the exceptions of official teasers or the comeback live stream), which I actually prefer because spoilers take away the anticipation for me personally! I hope the members are doing well. Jimin seems so tired and kind of preoccupied :( 💜 I hope he's okay...

But jimin was barefaced on his last vlive... Also jimin never used makeup on in the soop he's always been barefaced. I remember jungkook saying that Jimin looks sexy and hot whenever he wores makeup but when he dont he looks young and cute and it is the truth 😅
Naima
2020-11-12 07:00:19 +0000 UTC
Jimin seemed really tired in this livestream, I think maybe because he got done with choreo practice and we all know how hard bts work.. I could just tell while watching it that he has something weighing on his mind as well. I hope everything is going okay for him because he doesn’t like to tell us when he’s in pain or anything but he mentioned something bothering him. You should watch his birthday live from Oct 20th on Vlive. He isn’t wearing his mask and he was being an absolute cutie the whole time and had a lot more energy to talk about other things. I really hope he’s okay 💜

Jimin may not have said much in this livestream, but he was still adorable to watch, plus he gave everyone an update on Yoongi. It was good to hear directly from Jimin that Yoongi is doing well, as I'm sure all the members are still communicating with him during his recovery.
As others have mentioned, PM is Project Manager. From my understanding, each of the members has a specific role in helping with the development of each album, and they seem to be assigned these roles by the BigHit management team that oversees each album. Jimin first spoke about his assignment as PM & what it entailed in a livestream in the spring. It's the first time he's taken on this role. I remember watching him take notes about what the members' first ideas were for the new album in a meeting with just the 7 of them around the time of that livestream. I think that's where RM first talked about the theme of life goes on. It was fascinating to get a behind-the-scenes look at the members first discussing what they wanted the theme of the album to be. Here's the link for those who are interested:
https://youtu.be/D7HPWv4apDA
As for Jimin wearing his mask for the entire livestream, he may not have been feeling well and decided to wear it for that reason. He did mention that he had just washed his hair. He probably had no make-up on. Jimin has mentioned in previous livestreams that he doesn't like to show his bare face. He may have put on the mask for that reason.
Did anyone find it interesting that Jimin was a little cryptic when talking about taking care if himself, & then mentioning Yoongi's surgery again? It's well known that Chim Chim has some chronic pain issues from all of the energy he puts into his dances, as he has formal dance training, pours his heart into all of the dance choreos, and always stives for perfection. Was he possibly hinting that he's receiving some kind of medical treatment to help prevent him from needing possible surgery in the future? I hope I just read into things and that nothing serious is going on with him 🙏

You should definitely look into their vlives if you're interested in seeing solo one on one interaction from the boys. They get personal and answer questions from army! Their youtube lives for this album have been mainly them filming without talking and purely working just to show progress. Their vlives are full of stories which i'm sure you'll enjoy.

This is yoongi 3rd surgery...first one he underwent appendix surgery and 2nd with ear surgery
Sophyminie
2020-11-12 06:01:41 +0000 UTC
Yoongi's had surgery before and been in hospital twice during his time in bts (don't know if he had surgery when he was in for one of the things but the other was appendicitis) and I can't speak on his pre debut medical history. To be fair the themes of this album are not a mystery as their discussion of album ideas was uploaded to YouTube and they've constantly talked about it in the lives over the year.
edit: also if you want to know things about the album, you should watch (not necessarily react to) the YouTube lives (I'm going to assume you haven't by your response to some of what Jimin says).
