Korean netizens are increasingly expressing admiration for Jungkook, praising his laid-back yet refreshingly straightforward personality.
Recently, Korean netizens have gathered in a popular online community to talk about Jungkook’s honesty and confidence, earning him respect for his “Cool guy” attitude, where he remains true to himself regardless of what others think.
One fan listed Jungkook’s admirable traits and explained that his blunt honesty and genuine, no-nonsense attitude were what earned him love. The fan explained, “Truly a cool guy. If it’s a no, it’s no. If he doesn’t like it, he’ll say so – very straightforward personality. What he’d say to himself: ‘Live the way you want to live’.”
The fan continued, “He’s firm when it comes to relationships with people too. lol.”
The fan also directed attention to the fact that Jungkook deleted his Instagram with over 50 million followers because he wasn’t using it.
Translation: “I left Instagram. It’s not a hacking 🙂 I just deleted it because I wasn’t using it… Don’t worry!!!”
“Hehehehehe lol I don’t use it, what can I do?”
“I deleted the app right away too. I probably won’t be using it in the future.”
The fan also admired, “He has a max level in decisiveness and taking action.”
Translation: “I forgot about him ‘Jungkook, I am in Hawaii. Come quick. I miss you.’ This punk lol he got on a plane and came right away.”
The fan also highlighted the fact that Jungkook doesn’t care about what others think of him and explained, “He doesn’t care about others’ opinions – if he likes something, he does it. He wears toe socks because he likes them (not because he has athlete’s foot).”
The fan once again praised Jungkook’s blunt honesty and revisited an old interview where Jungkook consistently shared he doesn’t like to read.
Not only that, Jungkook shaved his own hair before enlisting for his mandatory military service.
It’s not only the fans who admire Jungkook for his cool personality. The fan shared, “According to V, Jungkook doesn’t pity himself, works hard, and always helps those around him when they’re struggling.”
Translation: “Jungkook according to V: He doesn’t blame others and doesn’t have self-pity. He quietly and diligently focuses on his work and gives his best in everything he does. When people around him are struggling, he never hesitates to lend a helping hand.”
The fan also praised Jungkook for not getting discouraged when he makes a mistake during a live performance; instead, he coolly admits it to his fans and delivers an even better performance next time.
Translation: “ARMYs… I’m sorry… I messed up the live (performance) heh I have no excuse. I’ll try to do better in the next live broadcast.”
Translation: Q. What do you think you’d be doing if you were born in the Joseon era? Jungkook: “I think I would be a… servant?”
Other fans commented:
“When he said he messed up the live performance, fans were like… ‘when did he mess up…? What I saw…? Why is that messing up…? lol.”
