i want greek gods for bts members too! :>

Hello hello sorry it took me a week to get to this!!! Same disclaimers as when I did this for svt apply, they could all be children of Apollo bc they are singers who sing performers who perform etc etc

Namjoon-Ok so like. Obvious answer is Athena right but I also think it's the right one!!!! Not only in that Namjoon loves learning and loves to read which is true, but also in the sense of he is SO introspective and always pushing himself to be better. Also leaderisms inherently involve strategy/wisdom.

Seokjin-Okay again, there is an obvious answer here and it's Aphrodite. which I can definitely see, like not only does he have That Face he is aware of that and can draw attention to himself (to take attention off others, even) when necessary. I can also see Poseidon for him for....honestly no particular reason, just vibes. This one is kind of hard for me because even though he is my bias and I love him a lot of what I see as his core traits don't map neatly onto one god or another? Not to turn this entirely unrelated retrospring ask into Jin meta but being empathetic, observant, willing to draw attention to oneself to make the burden on others easier, his hobbies etc--all aren't reaally traits that map onto one god or another. I suppose Athena could also work for the same reasons I listed for Jeonghan but while I do think the Jin-Jeonghan venn diagram has plenty of overlap I don't quite think the way their similarities manifest in Jin are as Athena-like as they are in Jeonghan.

Yoongi-I'm sure there are a lot of Yoongi-as-Nico fics out there and you know I'm not opposed to that but I think the most clear answer to me is Apollo. Like, Yoongi literally once said he wants to ask music why it chose him. He eats sleeps breathes music it is his method of communication with the world it is how he processes things. His first love was a PIANO. He is a child of Apollo. (Can u tell I have a lot of Yoongi feelings. Yoongi I miss you).

Hoseok- Literally the sun....so Apollo feels right!! I also think Hobi's dedication to his craft is also quite suitable for Apollo like he IS dance yk

Jimin-Aphrodite, mostly just because like....I feel like Jimin is love embodied, you know? Like yes he is gorgeous/the it boy etc but beyond that I think the love aspect of Aphrodite, not necessarily in the sense of romantic love, is very Jimin

Taehyung-Ack ok I'm gonna admit I have the shakiest grasp on Taehyung characterization-wise so this could be super super off base....I can see Aphrodite for him as well, for some reason I can also see Hermes?? Again like with Jin a lot of what I see as core "Taehyung" traits don't necessarily map onto a given god....I suppose on vibes alone he could be a child of Zeus/Poseidon/Hades but agh....armys plz sound off in the replies...

Jungkook-Okay I'm gonna throw out a hot take and say Hermes? Like of course the fact that he is good at literally everything encompasses artistic talent, so Apollo would fit, but Hermes is the jack-of-all-trades, and that's fitting for Jungkook to me. Whatever he puts his mind to he can pull off!! I also think Jungkook has the main character energy to be a son of Poseidon or Zeus
