BTS' Jungkook spotted by a fan on his vacation leave
Jungkook of BTS was recently spotted dining with SEVENTEEN members DK and Mingyu during his military leave, continuing the 97-liners (K-pop artists born in 1997) tradition of meeting up for meals. During this outing, a heartwarming moment occurred when a fan unexpectedly ran into the star and asked for his autograph.
Despite the surprise, the BTS star took the time to sit down and sign the fan's paper, a gesture that was captured in a video shared by the fan on TikTok. He was seen in a black hoodie with a black beanie underneath, with fans commenting on how healthy and adorable he looked.
The fan later shared a heartfelt message about how meeting her idol was a dream come true, emphasizing how BTS had helped her through tough times. She expressed gratitude for Jungkook’s patience in communicating with her in English, as she wasn’t fluent in Korean, and promised to improve her Korean in the future. This touching interaction added another cherished moment for ARMYs, especially during his ongoing military service.
The caption that she added along with the post said,
“I fulfilled my dream of meeting my idol in person and talking to you and you gave me an autograph, thank you Jungkook. BTS inspired me and helped me get through my worst days every day. In your songs, they encourage me to never give up. I never thought I would meet you. I thank God for putting me in the right moment.
She continued,
"I promise to improve my Korean language 100%. Thank you for the patience of speaking to me in English when I didn't understand some words in Korean. Thank you and that we will see each other again.”
There was some speculation among fans regarding the timing of the video, with some suggesting it might have been from December 5, 2023, when Jungkook was spotted in a similar outfit during BTS' last Weverse live before enlistment. However, most fans believe the video to be current, given the context of the idols being seen together recently.
This interaction highlights the BTS star's humility and his connection with fans, making it another memorable moment for the BTS fandom.
