On November 1, 2024, the South Korean media outlet MBN reported that BTS' Jungkook's worldwide impact has reportedly resulted in the export of one billion dollars of Korean Ramen, sending the fandom into a frenzy.

The publication mentioned that when the male artist made and consumed Buldak Bokkeum Myeon, the fandom looked up the recipe and consumed the Korean Ramen. As the K-pop idol ate the Buldak Bokkeum Myeon, the popularity of Korean Ramen increased, and it witnessed an influx of orders.

Subsequently, BTS' Jungkook's latest milestone circulated on social media, and the fandom expressed their pride in the artist. An X user expressed their pride in the idol and tweeted:

"This is the power of Jungkook that no other artist can do, imagine giving big sales in those small / big companys without being their Brand Ambassador. Everything that Jk ate or used it gets sold out or became popular easily Jungkook the most influential artist as he is."

The fandom bragged about BTS' Jungkook's influence and stated his influence was insane.

"JungKook’s influence/impact boosted overseas exports, yet that person still denied his impact,"- a fan reacted.
"Denying jungkook's impact at this point is stupid,"- a fan shared.
"OOHH YEAH, WE REMEMBER THIS. JUNGKOOKIE IS EVERYWHERE. HIS INFLUENCE IS INSANE,"- a fan commented.

The fandom ARMYs expressed their pride in the main artist. They further bragged about how the male artists had the power to increase the economy of South Korea.

"UNPARALLELED IMPACT."- a user reacted.
"Only Jungkook has this human power to move and make profits from the economic sectors of Korean industry. This impressive popularity is one of the two reasons for the hype and fear of MAIN POP BOY JUNGKOOK. Sister Hybe, Jungkook, glowed even more,"- a user shared.
"so cool.. the impact of jeon jungkook....so proud we are."- a user commented.
