Not even a required Korean military service could stop BTS’ golden maknae from updating his fans and reassuring them that he would always be there.
During his military break, BTS’ Jungkook delivered an unexpected holiday surprise for global ARMYs as he turned a simple Weverse live session into a three-hour musical treat.
Data released by the BSP on Tuesday showed the public sector’s foreign borrowings from July to September this year went up by 36 percent from the $2.81 billion in the same period last year.
Currently fulfilling his mandatory military service alongside fellow BTS members RM, Jimin, Suga and V, Jungkook managed to connect with ARMYs worldwide, racking up 20.2 million real-time viewers during the session.Subscribe to our daily newsletter

“Knock knock. Has everyone been well? Are you healthy? Don’t get sick, and make sure you’re eating your meals,” he wrote.
His warmth resonated as he wrapped up the conversation with “I miss you.”

Beyond the music, Jungkook opened up about life in the military and candidly addressed controversies, including hateful comments directed at his pet.
He even gave fans a glimpse of his home but urged them to respect his privacy, requesting they refrain from visiting or sending gifts.
Adding to the excitement, Jungkook’s solo journey has also been making waves. His documentary, “Jung Kook: I Am Still the Original,” released on Disney+, delves deep into his career milestones and debut solo album, “Golden.”
The film garnered over 1.38 million viewers globally, becoming the highest-grossing music documentary of 2023.
Particularly popular in Japan, it drew 300,000 admissions, making it the country’s top Korean film this year.
