Yet, the idol quickly apologized, explaining that he wasn’t sure if it was always just a positive gesture, and said if it was rude, he was sorry for using it.
jungkook being a kind, respectful, and considerate person as always🥹
🐰 But wait… is this a bad gesture? Don’t people also do it when they’re happy? Like when they eat something delicious, they do this, right? I’m not really sure. If this is actually a rude gesture, I’m sorry.… pic.twitter.com/KVkrMOX2UY

When the clip was shared, netizens praised Jungkook for his sincerity, and while he had done it in the right way, they appreciated that he was cautious due to not knowing the full context.
He used it correctly and it was very endearing and sweet. I wish he wouldn’t have to worry about it, but he’s so sweet to be concerned. it was a completely authentic and accurate gesture when food is delicious and you’re happy to eat it.🤌🏼♥️
