BTS' Jungkook gives ARMYBLINKs a sweet insight into their respect and admiration for each other. Bangtan's maknae released his debut solo album GOLDEN on November 3 and has been doing promotional interviews for his album. In one of the promotional interviews with Spotify, Jungkook mentioned Jennie's song You & Me.
The GOLDEN singer made an appearance on Spotify‘s K-Pop On! Spotify YouTube channel, where he did a series of activities while answering questions. He was shown the K-Pop ON! playlist and asked to name the songs he liked the most. Jungkook briefly mentioned knowing Jennie's song You & Me apart from songs by other HYBE artists, SEVENTEEN's God of Music, and TOMORROW X TOGETHER's Chasing that Feeling.
ARMYBLINKs took to X (formerly Twitter) to celebrate the interaction crumbs between BTS and BLACKPINK.

Jungkook mentions knowing Jennie's song, euphoric reactions from ARMYBLINKs
BTS and BLACKPINK are two of the biggest K-pop groups in the world and two of the fiercest rivals in the music space. Their respective fandoms, ARMYs and BLINKs, are often at loggerheads on social media over which group has had the bigger impact on the global music and pop scene.
However, there are a few moments when fans from both sides forget their differences and unite to celebrate each other's success and pop-cultural impact. Recently, the 3D singer gave ARMYBLINKs (fans who love both BTS and BLACKPINK) a reason to celebrate and rejoice.
The Euphoria singer answered a few questions regarding his musical preferences, preferably in K-pop, when he recently made an appearance on Spotify‘s K-Pop On! Spotify YouTube channel. He was shown a K-pop playlist consisting of the latest hits and asked to pick his personal favorites from the list.
Unsurprisingly, Jungkook picked his labelmates SEVENTEEN's God of Music and TOMORROW X TOGETHER's Chasing That Feeling. While scrolling, he noticed Jennie's song You & Me, a non-album single she initially performed during her solo stage at one of BLACKPINK's concerts before officially releasing it on October 6.
ARMYBLINKs admired that Bangtan's maknae acknowledged the song instead of skipping over it, giving fans Jungkook and Jennie, aka BTS and BLACKPINK crumbs.
ARMYBLINKs believe the SEVEN singer recognized the song instantly from Coachella this year, where Jennie first performed the track on stage for fans. The maknae was stationed in the U.S. for solo activities and took some time off to attend Coachella, where BLACKPINK was performing as official headliners.
Additionally, Jungkook and Jennie are Korean brand ambassadors for the American ready-to-wear casual wear and undergarments brand Calvin Klein and have participated in media campaigns together. ARMYBLINKs are happy to receive a few crumbs and genuine camaraderie and bonding between BTS and BLACKPINK members, even if it is something as simple as acknowledging each other's work.
Jungkook topped iTunes worldwide with his new album GOLDEN and the title track, Standing Next To You
On November 3 at 1 pm KST, Bangtan's maknae released his debut solo album GOLDEN and its title track, Standing Next To You. Immediately upon its release, both GOLDEN and Standing Next To You topped iTunes Charts worldwide.
