In addition to Jungkook BTS's increasingly unsettling physique, the 'golden maknae' has undergone changes in a number of aspects since starting his career as a teenager. Anything?
Jungkook BTS (Bangtan Boys) started chasing his dream since he was a teenager, and many things have changed since he was young. In addition to his increasingly unsettling physique, the "golden maknae" has undergone changes in a number of aspects.
First, the shame. When BTS guested on Mnet's "New Yang Nam Show", the hyungs shared that Jungkook used to be very shy. If someone asked Jungkook to sing, he wouldn't be able to because of his embarrassment.
If someone keeps asking Jungkook to sing, then he will cry. Jungkook was able to overcome his shyness over time, and the other members couldn't help but smile when they saw how much Jungkook grew.
Jungkook is now more understanding. In an interview, Jungkook was asked how he has changed in the past five years. The 1997-born singer shared that he used to be a hobby of doing jokes. But after meeting his brothers at BTS, Jungkook became calmer.
Not only that, Jungkook became more understanding of other people. Jungkook now thinks about other people's feelings first before thinking about his own.
Jungkook now allows ARMY to call him "oppa". In the past, Jungkook forbade ARMYs from calling him oppa, especially if they were older. Oppa is a term of endearment that women use to address older men. At a fansign, an ARMY shouted, "Jungkook oppa," and Jungkook quickly told fans that he wasn't his oppa.
Jungkook then told ARMYs that they must now bring ID cards to check their age. As time goes by, Jungkook is getting used to being called oppa, and now he doesn't mind it.
Lastly is his confidence. In an episode of tvN's "You Quiz On The Block," Jungkook revealed that he struggled during BTS' early days for questioning himself as the group's main vocalist.
Jungkook then started working tirelessly to increase his confidence. "I have to show improvement and achievement. I think the only person who can act and make a change is myself," he said. Over time, Jungkook started to become more confident. (wk/chus)
