BTS’s Jungkook is IU’s Hardcore Fanboy!
BTS’s Jungkook has a number of idols, like Justin Bieber, Charlie Puth, and G-dragon/GD. But, there’s only one female idol for him, and that’s IU. Since before he was a trainee, he was already IU’s fanboy. Many people say that Jungkook is IU’s number one fan, and he freely admits that he really loves IU. Jungkook has never been shy about admitting that IU is his idol. It seems to come up every time he is on a television show, either by himself or as part of BTS. For example, on the TV program Flower Crew, Jungkook was asked if he had a girlfriend, and what kind of girl was his type. He answered that he doesn’t have a girlfriend, but his ideal type was like IU. Every time he’s been asked about his ideal type, he always says IU. Even so, whenever he’d meet IU directly, he was always shy. Evidence that Jungkook is IU’s biggest fan is evident in the video uploaded on BANGTANTV channel four years ago. In the video, V, Jimin and Jungkook are in the park, listening to IU’s song Friday. V and Jimin are sitting next to each other, while Jungkook was standing behind them. When V and Jimin are singing, Jungkook takes a drink and plays with a ball behind them, and tried to annoy V. Then V stood up, and Jungkook took his place so he could sing his idol’s song. Here are a compilation video and photos showing Jungkook being IU’s fanboy!

On December 19, 2018, Jungkook uploaded a video on Twitter @BTS_tweet, where he sang another IU song – “Ending Scene”.
