Jungkook & Minhyun

.

Jungkook & Minhyun, commonly known as **Minkoo**, is the platonic relationship consisting of the characters Jeon Jungkook and Hwang Minhyun.

## History

## Disc One

#### Track One: Greenhouses

Jungkook and Minhyun first interest when they meet up for lunch with Hoseok. They discuss schoolwork, their upcoming trip to Japan and KCon. Jungkook expresses some jealousy towards the way Hoseok and Minhyun interact but is otherwise nice towards Minhyun.

They next meet up when the trio meet at their boba cafe; Minhyun is late and complains of a headache while Jungkook expresses some disappointment that the other man has arrived, wishing that sometimes it could just be him and Hoseok. Minhyun asks Jungkook how his essay went and Jungkook lies, stating that he passed.

#### Track Two: First Dates

Jungkook tells Mingyu that Hoseok and Minhyun are on a date. Mingyu tells him that he thinks Minhyun is nice and while Jungkook does not agree out loud, he does agree mentally.

Like with Hoseok, Jungkook ignores Minhyun in the days following his first date with Namjoon and while he works on his essay. The two eventually meet at the gym, where Minhyun ponders if Jungkook isn't speaking to him anymore. Jungkook tells a white lie to explain his absence, with Minhyun assuming that he's working on a script and expresses interest in it; he then tells Jungkook that Hoseok has been busy with his PhD work, so he's feeling a little lonely. When Minhyun tries to talk about the hotel Hoseok found for their Japan trip, Jungkook is vacant; this prompts Minhyun to ask Jungkook if something is going on and Jungkook is vague in his answer. Minhyun asks if it is because Jungkook thinks he'll tell Hoseok, to which Jungkook responds that Minhyun always tells Hoseok when something is going on with him. When Jungkook refuses to come over, they make plans to see each other the following day before Jungkook rushes out of the gym to meet up with Namjoon.

#### Track Three: Happiness

While at his birthday lunch with Hoseok, Jungkook is gifted a Kuromi Speaker. Hoseok states that both he and Minhyun thought it was only fair to get him a gift on the day of his birthday rather than waiting until their trip.

After returning to Hoseok and Minhyun's apartment to get ready for karaoke, Jungkook comes out of the shower to see Minhyun and Hoseok being intimate. He watches for a moment before running into the spare room. He expresses some jealousy of Minhyun but also acknowledges that Minhyun makes Hoseok happy and he wouldn't want to take that away from him. The scene, however, does prompt Jungkook to message Namjoon. After he gets dressed, Jungkook meets Minhyun in the kitchen and they talk about his gift; Minhyun tells him that it sucks to be empty handed on your birthday and Jungkook thanks him. The two make plans to head go shopping for a suitcase for Jungkook before they leave for the karaoke bar.

## Disc Two

#### Track Eight: Gentleness

Minhyun and Jungkook see each other again when they arrive at the airport to head to Japan. Despite Jungkook's exhaustion and fear, he's happy to see them and his excitement for the trip gradually returns the more time he spends with Minhyun and Hoseok. The four of them head to the first class lounge to wait for boarding, with the three of them left when Namjoon heads out. Jungkook tells them his plans for when they get to Japan, including meeting Namjoon's friend and using the claw machines. He asks them for the prize they want and Minhyun tells him he would like a Catbus. Minhyun then leaves to get coffee and breakfast for them.

While at baggage claim after landing, Jungkook struggles to lift Namjoon's case so Minhyun helps him get it off the belt and takes it over to their spot for him.

At the hotel, the group splits into their room pairings, with Jungkook planning on going out with Namjoon to meet his friend. When he finds he has been abandoned, Jungkook begins to cry when he hears the door. Behind it is Minhyun — who came to check on him with Hoseok — who makes a small joke about the speed in which Jungkook opened the door. Jungkook struggles to remain calm, beginning to cry and stutter heavily. This prompts Minhyun to try to help calm him as Jungkook tells him what happened. When Hoseok arrives, he grows angry at the circumstances and seeing how this further upsets Jungkook, Minhyun yells at him. The three of them then plan to head out to the arcade.
