Fading Away | Taekook

8 - Happynewyear

9:30 PM and Jungkook was ready to go. He wore a light blue ripped tight jeans, a white dress shirt with the first two buttons open and rolled up sleeves to show off his tattoos, a white and expensive pair of sneakers and a charcoal gray overcoat to face the cold winds of  Seoul. His long locks free and wild. He liked what he saw in the mirror, so he took a pic and uploaded it to his Instagram stories.

The boy checked his photographic equipment for the tenth time, picked up his backpack and headed to Jimin's apartment.

He was met at the door by a stressed Yoongi dealing with a late (obvious) Jimin, who was probably in his room juggling his way into one of his extremely tight pants. Yoongi was in an all-white outfit, with a dress shirt buttoned up to the neck and tucked into a dress pant and a blazer on top. It was unusual to see both the older man and Jungkook in such light clothes, as they both wore black the other 364 days of the year.

Yoongi poured a shot of whiskey for himself and another for Jungkook and also went to check his equipment.

If Jungkook is the master of photography, Yoongi is God. Much of what the boy knows today is thanks to the elder. From advising about courses, improving techniques, contacts, etc.

Both worked at Bangtan Enterprise, but on different teams. Jimin also worked for Bangtan, but as a photo model. The boy's perfect features appeared on many advertisements across the country.

"Okay, I'm ready! Shall we?", Jimin emerged wearing a tight white turtleneck, marking the contour of his fit torso, tight white jeans, a white belt studded with rhinestones and rings, lots of rings. His platinum hair styled showing off his forehead and a white overcoat.

Jungkook thirdwheeled while Yoongi eyed his boyfriend with a proud smile on his face. So in love that it is disgusting.

"Then let's go partyyy...", with feigned enthusiasm, the three headed to the parking lot.

Bangtan Enterprise is located in a skyscraper in the heart of Seoul, a pioneer in marketing and advertising throughout Asia, it is every industry professional's dream to be part of the group.

The New Year's Eve party is an old tradition dating back to over thirty years of the company and which grows stronger every year, with more and more illustrious guests and at the same time reserved, a place where the biggest names in Korea could meet to celebrate the New Year. (or fuck in reserved rooms without the risk of being exposed to the media).

The trio arrived at the building around 10:15 PM, none of them were there for fun, but for work. So, Jimin said goodbye to the two photographers and met with a group of models and celebrities to socialize, while Yoongi was in charge of following the most VIP people, Jungkook stayed on the main floor, in charge of capturing spontaneous moments from the crowd.

With a camera in hand and another hanging around his neck, the latter tried to remain infiltrated and invisible, registering meetings, even some very intimate ones, knowing that some people do this on purpose exactly to appear in the media. His role was to register, the person who would be in charge of filtering the content to be published would be his boss, Hoseok.

Speaking of Hoseok, there he was: elegant and bright as ever, with his captivating smile he was the center of attention in a circle of celebrities. He really was a people's person. Jung Hoseok is the leader of Jungkook's team, everything is reviewed by the eloquent and extroverted boy, he is the main reason for their young group to stand out in such a short time of existence at Bangtan enterprise. Next to him is  Kim Namjoon, the brain of the team for sure. Namjoon led the team almost side by side with Hoseok, just one step below. Intelligent, succinct and with a leadership spirit, Namjoon is responsible for recruiting collaborators and models. The boy's professionalism and eloquence were responsible for closing contracts with major brands for advertising.
