As fans became aware of his liking for his birth flower, they always talked about it on special days for the idol, and since it was his birthday, they were even more excited about it and decided to give him love without any conditions. Even before Jung Kook's birthday, fans are hyped about his birth flower and can't wait to wish him.

Check out how ARMYs are reacting to the symbolism of BTS' Jungkook's birth flower, Tiger Lily, which conveys the message "Please love me."

Originating from ancient Korea, the tiger lily flower embodies qualities such as nobility, confidence, positivity, benign pride, vibrancy, and wealth. Its vibrant orange hue further symbolizes energy, equilibrium, and enthusiasm.

The presence of black spots on its petals is seen as symbolic of coins, contributing to its reputation as a symbol of prosperity. Throughout Korea's history, the tiger lily has maintained its status as a costly bloom, and presenting it as a gift carries profound significance.

Needless to say, fans are currently celebrating Jung Kook's birthday worldwide by organizing various events, such as flower shop gatherings in South Korea, where fans flock to designated places with his pictures and different flowers as presents.

Meanwhile, Jimin and RM have publicly wished the golden maknae a happy birthday through their Instagram accounts. The former members' posts have created a craze among fans who can't stop gushing over them, as Jimin posted a shirtless picture of himself alongside the Euphoria singer.


Jung Kook has recently released his debut single Seven and revealed plans to release a single and a mini-album in November, as disclosed by him in Suchwita.
