1. When Jungkook turned shy dancing to ‘Super Shy’
BTS are becoming true fanboys of NewJeans. After Taehyung reshared one of the member’s covers of his release, ‘Rainy Days,’ Jungkook was next in line to be the most supportive sunbae (industry senior) Jungkook cutely grooved to NewJeans’ hit, ‘Super Shy’ that's been captivating everyone with its catchy tune. He didn't necessarily take it as a traditional dance challenge, but BTS ARMY couldn't get enough of his adorable moves.
2. When Jungkook added being a magician to his list of ‘golden’ talents
Since their rookie days and early fan meets, Jungkook has had a cute tradition where he entertains ARMYs by showing new magic tricks that he’s been learning. In his birthday Weverse livestream, Jungkook flaunted some new card tricks – and we can’t get enough of his sleight of hand!

3. When Jungkook was joined by ‘best boy’ Jeon Bam
Jungkook’s bond with Bam (his fur-baby) is a true reflection of his warm personality. He even brought Bam along in "BTS in the Soop Season 2", making it clear he's proud to flaunt his 'son' to everyone.
In a recent live stream this year, he spent some heartfelt moments with his Doberman, even letting him say 'hi' to the fans. This sweet exchange is a treat for anyone who adores dogs. Plus, you get a glimpse of Jungkook, so it's like getting the cherry on top! Who could resist that combo?
4. Jungkook and Mingyu’s chaotic 4AM live
You can tell when people are with their close friends; they just relax and enjoy the moment. This particular instance not only delighted the people directly involved but also resonated with the BTS ARMY and SEVENTEEN’s Carat fandoms. The moment even led to a surge in "ArmyCarats." If you're considering close friendships in the K-pop world for the youngest member of BTS, look no further than the '97 Liner Squad, which includes members from SEVENTEEN, ASTRO, GOT7, and NCT.
Given their tight schedules, it's not always easy for them to meet. However, Jungkook, Mingyu, and Eunwoo seem to find opportunities to catch up. With SEVENTEEN's recent release of their 10th mini-album and Jungkook's solo debut, it paved the way for Mingyu and Jungkook to collaborate on some epic dance challenge videos.
Around that time, the duo did a surprise livestream on Jungkook's account in the wee hours of the morning. It was super short, but it was packed with giggles and fun. It was clear they were having a blast, even if it was just for a few minutes. The whole vibe? Totally screamed 'chaotic best friends' energy.
5. When Jungkook showed off his underwear
Jungkook was recently appointed as the global ambassador for Calvin Klein. Since then, the artist has been dropping the sultriest photographs from shoots for the luxury label. In one of his lives, Jungkook took it a step further and even subtly showed us pairs of his underwear as he folded laundry – proving to ARMY he’s a committed patron even in real life! Talk about taking your endorsements seriously.

6. When Jungkook put on a live concert for ARMY on his birthday
BTS sells out stadiums within minutes – with several shows surpassing 3 hours! However, being the ‘born singer’ that is, Jungkook continues to enchant ARMY beyond concert setlists through his livestreams. One of his most iconic livestreams is his 24th birthday VLive where JK put on a mini concert for his beloved fans.
He took songs upon request singing underrated classics like ‘Love Maze’ and ‘Paradise.’ He asked ARMY to write birthday wishes for him in a lyric format – and compiled those to record an impromptu song! The live went on for nearly 2 and a half hours – we can bet ARMY went to bed that night enraptured.

7. When Jungkook decided to work out and flaunt his muscles
A ‘thirst trap’ that Jungkook has often ‘innocently’ laid out for ARMY who diligently tune in to his midnight lives is working out. During a promotional livestream leading up to the release of ‘Seven,’ Jungkook showed off his sculpted body by working out in the middle of the night. Another iconic livestream moment was when he practised his boxing skills live for ARMY! You can bet we were glued to our screens throughout.

8. When Jungkook adorably dozed off on live
In a uniquely endearing gesture, BTS's Jungkook couldn't resist the pull of slumber during a live stream on Weverse. He began the live session at 7 a.m. anxious because he couldn’t fall asleep. He donned a black tee that highlighted his tattoos, comfortably tucked under white bed sheets.
Half-jokingly, he commented, “If I fall asleep like this, the company will go crazy,” giving viewers a peek at his black pillow. Yet, moments later, he was sound asleep. And guess what? 6 million ARMY continued to watch him sleep soundly under their protective gaze for the next 21 minutes. This goes to show the bond BTS shares with their fans.

9. When shirtless Jungkook sent fans into a frenzy
Jungkook is known for the most unexpected and random livestreams. Whenever we get a notification for his Weverse live, we can always expect the unexpected. This is exactly what happened when ARMY tuned in to one of Jungkook’s recent livestreams – only to find their idol shirtless!
He lay comfortably beneath the sheets during the 30-minute session, interacting adorably with fans and even playfully teasing an ARMY who asked him to show off his abs on camera. However he did flex his biceps – leaving us wanting more!
