what matters is that Jungkook is safe, warm, and healthy in mind, body and spirit, and I hope we all continue to send him positive energy in whatever ways we connect with higher powers 🙏🏽 may the Universe continue to watch over him and protect him, today, tomorrow, always
JK is an artist and a human being, an individual with his own thoughts, feelings, goals, perspective, strengths and weaknesses. He isn’t a doll to be dressed up, knocked down, and projected upon. He wants to be seen as himself, a real person. Why is that so hard?
#RespectJungkook
Jungkook is a live performer and true vocalist through and through, no smoke and mirrors needed, no studio magic necessary, just Jungkook and his mic turned on
“I love him but”
“I respect him but”
No you don’t. Just admit it and move on.
You like his voice, except when he gets too many lines.
You like his tattoos, except when he’s friends with his tattoo artist.
You like his hair, except when you don’t and you insult his looks.
👤 let’s be honest, it could have been any one of them
CP: no, it had to be Jungkook because we’re friends and I knew this collaboration would be brilliant
SPEAK ON IT, CHARLIE 😤
People don’t fully understand how rare and precious Jungkook’s attitude is towards celebrity. It’s easy to get caught up in status, money, titles, records, that’s true of anyone. He tunes it out, and remains humble, gracious, grounded in reality. He protects his own heart well.
Jungkook has given everyone ample time to either adjust to the real him, or move on. He’s not regressing, not stagnating, not limiting his own happiness, not for anyone. And he’s not apologizing. It might feel uncomfortable, but that’s how people grow.
“… and I thought, ‘I am the only person who can change me’. So I erased the concept of vocal training time. I sang in the car, in the bathroom, in the shower. I sang every chance I had.” — Jungkook, 210324
Jungkook always talks about his family with such love and respect, credits them for raising him well; here he gushes over how incredible he finds his grandmother and the kindness she showed to animals
I really fcking love Jungkook
I’m still endlessly proud of Jungkook, my forever singer, not intimidated to debut a song in front of football fans from multiple countries, in a massive packed stadium, not in his first language, at the biggest sporting event in the world, with minimal in-person fandom support
Jungkook didn’t see his solo career as a temporary time filler, Seven and Golden weren’t him having a comeback as a BTS member to amuse fans; it was the debut of Jungkook, pop star solo artist, and his journey is only just beginning, he’s only just started reaching for his dreams
So it wasn't the industry being problematic when other members found success with their releases, no one complained, but now it's suddenly the industry trying to "sow discord" when it is Jungkook's turn for promo. I see.
Jungkook is sex positive in his songs? Army is uncomfortable.
Jungkook releases debut album in English? Army calls him a sell out.
Jungkook supports young artists over corporate executives? Army stands against him.
Jungkook shares solo dreams? Army calls him selfish & greedy.
“as a solo singer, not as BTS’ Jungkook”
“this is my first step forward in the spotlight as a solo artist”
UNTAG BTS FROM SEVEN
REMOVE BTS TAG
BIGHIT RESPECT JUNGKOOK
Charlie waited, he didn’t want anyone else, and for that I’m forever thankful to him for having enough patience and determination to get the one person he wanted to be his fellow lead artist on L&R, he’s a real one
solo debut before even releasing his own album, solo debut stage at one of the biggest sporting events on the planet, the first Korean act to perform at the World Cup - nobody else is doing it like Jungkook!
JK says he wanted to do more for his music & NLG, things he ran out of time to prepare and present to his fans. It’s too bad his time got used up w other meaningless content he had to be ambushed with cameras to agree. Won’t support anything that wasted his precious artist time.
“It’s not that we want you to understand, but it’d be nice if you could understand us.” This is the point Army missed at chapter 2’s start. BTS never asked Army to get it, to agree, to like their choice; they simply asked for empathy, for their choice to be heard and respected.
“He deserves the whole world” but you all won’t even vote for him and his individual work for an award. “He deserves the whole world” but every time he gives us anything, you all find a way to drag his choices, credit others for it, or boycott his art.
This is a fav Jungkook stage moment because after watching him for years and years, it was incredibly beautiful to see him easily laugh at a misstep and move past it with humour and a light heart. This was a genuine smile as he treated himself with grace.
Never Let Go is Jungkook’s solo song, why is it credited to BTS in ‘I Am Still’ credits? He solo branded it when it was released, BTS isn’t in performing credits of the song. Why does
@BIGHIT_MUSIC
insist on stealing from Jungkook’s work any chance they get?
@HYBEOFFICIALtwt
Jungkook is the best singer in BTS, always the one the group turns to for perfect, live, impromptu vocals, he never goofs around because being their main vocalist is important to him, singing is his passion and it always shows
“when I was writing the lyrics”
“I wanted to let our fans know the real story about me”
“I used the analogy of time zones to express my feelings”
“I think it’s well expressed in the track”
- Jungkook, on the creation of My Time
Everyone who hopes Jungkook enlists early so they can have ot7 content back sooner, I wish horrible things for you. If he wants to go early, fine, but not for the group. He’s a human being, this is his life. And I thought Army cared about his rest and not forcing him to work?
I want to know why
@bts_bighit
is ignoring Dreamers, as though it never happened. They're active, with birthday wishes and pushing the latest album release. So why no open congratulations or pride for a song all over k-media, high on Melon charts, and performed on a global stage?
“you solo losers think you carry him” no, he carries himself, he’s popular across demographics, he’s gaining traction on radio as more people hear & enjoy his music, as fans we support him, and it’s an honour to get to walk along w/ him on his journey, it’s his success not ours
We don’t discuss often enough how Jungkook is able to flawlessly sing a song on command any time he’s asked, and has been able to do so throughout his entire career; yes you are very dope, Jungkook!
I have no idea if anyone shared this yet but I was literally just watching The Voice while doing some household chores and heard Jungkook!
#StandingNextToYou
🔥
I trust, support, and respect Jungkook, the artist and the human. No conditions, no caveats. I’m so incredibly proud of his sincerity, his authenticity, and how he’s never afraid to be the first one to step out on a limb. He’s the main character of his own life.
I’ll never forgive BH intentionally sabotaging Jungkook’s WC opening ceremony stage. His own company acted like it was meaningless, impactless, forgettable. They didn’t just ignore it; they purposely kept Jungkook hidden from additional gp excitement and massive media exposure.
Well. We’ve got 18 months to unshakeably strengthen our fandom for Jungkook and consistently support his solo music. We’ve got this for him; we’ll keep Jungkook’s Golden era alive and thriving until he opens his next era.
WE WILL WAIT FOR YOU JUNGKOOK
WE LOVE YOU JUNGKOOK
I respect how Jungkook laughs off and ignores senseless criticism, especially when he is confident that he knows what he’s talking about, certain in a particular area of knowledge. It’s not easy to get under his skin, he’s so easy-going and amiable. I admire that about him.
speaking of Jungkook harmony fairy and best singer, he really knows how to augment and compliment a rapper’s style and bring depth and emotion as a vocalist
Jungkook asked for Dreamers to be shown a lot of interest. He hypes the other members often, yet here he hyped himself and his song. Also, wouldn’t the other members be happy for Jungkook if he won? Why is the “he’d be happy for” never about Jungkook winning?
ungrateful fandom, pestering him about 2025 when he just announced his solo album, on the heels of 3D, and is excited about it? is it that difficult to appreciate everything he's been doing for us, how much music he's given us (and all of them have) since they announced ch 2?
unedited photos outshine every other photo, they show Jungkook’s innate beauty, his bright radiance, his gorgeous skin tone, his scar, his lips, his moles, the way his eyes are so clear and sparkle like they hold entire galaxies
"I wasn't expecting an artist from a different side of the world, with a different audience, a different style. But honestly there was no better choice." — Fahad, on Jungkook
“For Jungkook, who since his middle school years had given everything he had to become a singer at BHE…” - exactly, and all that effort, all that time, all that youth, willingly went to his group, which is why he’s fully deserving of his epic moment as a soloist right now
I want to know why you’re allowed to say Yoongi is the best producer, Hoseok or Jimin is the best dancer, Namjoon is the best lyricist, Seokjin or Taehyung is the most handsome, but you’ll get ratioed, argued with, and labelled solo if you dare say Jungkook is the best vocalist.
You know what song I love? Standing Next To You - the technique, the production, the performance, the lyrics, the devotion, the choreography, the instrumental dance break, the soaring vocal range, the nostalgic funk - all of it. I love everything about Standing Next To You.
🫶🏽 Jungkook has the biggest, softest, sweetest heart! I hope he always surrounds himself with people who know how to fill it.
#HAPPYJKDAY2023
#OurDreamerJungkook
HAPPY JUNGKOOK DAY
“I don’t write lyrics much. I always view the world realistically. I believe getting help from experts is more beneficial.” If you bash or demean his active choice to focus on singing & performing instead of songwriting, you’re not a fan, you’re an anti.
I feel sorry for most Army. They don't bother hearing or seeing Jungkook for who he is as an individual or artist. They're caught up in recognizing others in him, in joking about him, in minimizing him, they completely miss out on such a beautiful, intelligent, thoughtful person.
chapter 2 has taught me that ot7 accounts won’t say Jungkook’s name when mentioning his solo work, they’ll state a song title and keep it moving as though it’s unimportant and he doesn’t deserve respect, as though he hasn’t given his everything to the group for over a decade
so not one person saw Jungkook out and about in LA? or if they did, we certainly got no glimpse of it, he must have been working so hard - in booth, in studio, on set, rinse repeat 💦💪🏽🔥 he must be getting so excited to finally share everything he’s been working on!
in looking for something else, I came across this moment, and keep in mind Jungkook has almost no lines to even sing in Idol …. there isn’t much point to this except finding it interesting
the amount of CK branding in this gorgeous dynamic shot with Jungkook’s beautiful healthy physique, they really won the universe lottery by choosing Jungkook and him choosing CK in return
#JUNGKOOKxCALVINKLEIN
Jungkook served the Jungle cover up piping hot with perfect rasp and grit, while still bringing his unique lilting sweetness which is instantly recognizable ❤️🔥🤌🏽
Army gets mad at anyone for interacting w/ JK -thanking him, hyping him, wanting to work with him- calling them a clout chasing loser, but does the same thing, using his popularity and ambassadorship to promote someone else. Then they blame solos for their own blatant disrespect.
Thank you so much
@charlieputh
for loving and respecting Jungkook as a true friend, I can’t fully express how appreciative I am for you waiting for him and helping him launch his solo era. You’re a real one, Charlie. Left and Right joint stage was absolutely magical. 🩷💚
Reminder that Jungkook literally told us that the ‘J’ tattoo on his finger is for JK, for himself, for his own name, purposefully next to where he crowned the A of Army 💀 Period. If it had another or alternate meaning, he’d have said it.
Jungkook really does consistently and openly break down toxic masculinity, through insightful words and sincere actions, not just questioning the status quo but walking the walk in how he lives his life
worldwide media: JUNGKOOK! National darling and global superstar is opening the WC alongside other musical artists!
SK media: Our baby is performing on a world stage, we’re so proud! We love him! Please support him.
BH: here is a tiktok of an old group song from a few members
You like his words when he’s talking about the other six, except when he’s teasing them like friends do.
You like him saying he’s working on music, except when he’s talking about doing a solo concert someday, hoping he can perform on his own in the future.
At the end of the day, I don't worry about Jungkook landing on his feet no matter what, because that man has drive, discipline, and passion like no one else. He motivates himself from within, and that's priceless. No one can take that quiet fierce inner strength away from him.
I think Jungkook's lack of ego, his humility and gratitude, is the glue that holds them together. Consistently, from the beginning, he patiently puts others before himself, and not many groups have someone like that. His humble, big-hearted personality is their secret sauce.
Fandom aside, Jungkook and his music are loved by non-Army, non-kpop listeners. Many of his songs have not only reached the gp, but are embraced by the gp. Period, full stop. He is a pop soloist to many, the singer of Seven, the World Cup guy. Fandom needs to cope and move on.
