BTS J-Hope's Conversation With ARMY Got Unexpectedly Flirty When Talking About "Squid Game"

You know you’re in for a good time when BTS‘s J-Hope shows up on Weverse…

On October 7, J-Hope arrived to Weverse with a selfie and a sweet message for the fandom.

I miss you, ARMY 💜

— J-Hope

Aw, we miss you too, J-Hope!

His post set the mood for the digital party that evening as he conversed with ARMY. One ARMY reposted his new portrait, asking what kind of pose he was doing.

I miss you too, J-Hope! But what is this picture? Is it supposed to look like I’m being sucked into this picture?

+ Oop……….. Yes, I’m definitely trapped by you! 😘❤️

— ARMY

His response? His goal was to trap us in his love!

Trapping you with this picture like… 🥰

— J-Hope

Of course, the best way to start a conversation with the guy you like is by talking about relevant topics you know he’ll be interested in. We’ve all seen Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo. Instead of asking him if he likes Lionel Messi, though, ask about Netflix‘s Squid Game…

Oppa, have you seen Squid Game yet?

— ARMY

To say that this ARMY was successful is an understatement. He not only confirmed he had seen it, but he suggested they play a game of ddakji, a traditional South Korean game played using folded paper tiles.

Would you like to play a game of ddakji with me? 😏

— J-Hope

Now, if you’re thinking right now, “that’s not a big deal.” Well, look back at Squid Game and (SPOILERS!!!) the iconic scene featuring the game. Yeah, the one with Gong Yoo!

If you think we’re overreacting and this wasn’t flirting… Look back at his emoji choice too. 😏

Okay, J-Hope, we see you… 👀

Wanna play ttakji game with hoseok? 🔥 pic.twitter.com/YKgOLqIgjI

This ARMY’s response to his comment is, honestly, such a mood. 😂

Keeping with the theme for the evening, another ARMY posted photos from Run BTS! in which J-Hope was seen with some familiar symbols… These same symbols are on the calling card in Squid Game. As you know, many of the same games in the thriller series have also been played by BTS in their variety show. The connections are endless!
