With every passing day, the release of BTS' highly anticipated webtoon 7Fates: CHAKO is drawing closer. Recently, HYBE unveiled the character names and emojis of each member. As soon as this news was dropped, #WEBTOON_JUNGKOOK quickly took over the worldwide trends on Twitter, swiftly jumping to #1.

To add to the growing hype, HYBE also released short videos of the group members describing each of their characters. The webtoon is scheduled to be released on Naver Webtoon and Wattpad at the end of the second week of January.


Fans are swooning over BTS' Jungkook's character ZEHA's emoji

Once again, ARMYs have dominated social media and have started trending #WEBTOON_JUNGKOOK. Ecstatic fans clearly loved Jungkook's character ZEHA's blonde hair and even pointed out how the shared emoji resembles Jungkook rather well.

Eager to keep fans happy, HYBE Corporation then released snippets of each group member describing their characters in detail on Twitter. Jungkook stated that his character ZEHA is not a human, but a (half human and half tiger) hybrid. He stated:

"Zeha is half-human and half-tiger who was born between a human and a beom. He only finds out after being attacked by a beom, so he is shocked. He uses his tiger powers to hunt them but at the same time, no one can find out that he's one himself."

Last year, HYBE announced that it would be collaborating with prominent K-pop artists to create several original stories. The South Korean entertainment company would then release these stories in the form of webtoons and web novels in the year of 2022.

After BTS announced its extended vacation, HYBE unveiled teasers of an upcoming webtoon based on the story of BTS, titled 7Fates: CHAKHO.
