Well, the topic of love and dating is always a sensitive topic for any idol because while the majority of fans may support their dating, there will still be fans who dislike and even criticize their idols for it. Therefore, idols are often quite shy when it comes to dating or revealing their love story.
Over the years, Jungkook has never revealed anything about his relationship status and many believe that he doesn't have enough time to date when he's so focused on his career. However, in some situations when asked, Jungkook also keeps an open attitude, especially when he is already an adult.
Here are 3 times Jungkook shared about dating and what he wants to experience when in love:
Just like normal people, even though he's an idol, he still has a young man's heart with love. Seeing how he expresses himself so intensely in MV Seven and the lyrics in it also shows a bit how Jungkook loves a girl.
But through 3 times that he mentioned his ideal type, his experience of wanting to be in love and his current view of love, you will surely have the most general view of a boyfriend - Jungkook. Check it out below:
1. His ideal type
Jungkook has some thoughts on his ideal girlfriend. Some of the physical features in a girlfriend that he wants are someone with a strong body, toned muscles, and nice legs. This seems to correspond with Jungkook as he also has a great body. Meanwhile, Jungkook also wants his ideal girlfriend to be shorter than him.
He also shared that he wants to be with someone who is smart. Good singing and good cooking are also traits that Jungkook wants in a girlfriend. Jungkook is quite competitive, and he wants to be with someone who is also competitive.
If he named celebrities close to his ideal type, they would be singer IU and actress Emma Watson!
2. Kiss scene he wants to experience
In an interview at the time of Jungkook's debut, he was asked if there was a scene in the movie that he wanted to experience in real life, and he talked about the kiss scene in Love 911. And it was really a super romantic and cläṩṩic scene.
He shared: “In a movie called 반창꼬 (Love 911), there is a scene where the movie character lifts up his girl with both hands and kisses her. I want to experience that at least once before I die".
Upon hearing Jungkook confess this, BTS members as well as fans gasped at his bold and interesting choice!
3. Revealing what's more important than dating right now
In an interview with Esquire's Dave Holmes, the BTS members were asked a few broad questions about dating, and they gave the same answers to each one. Dave Holmes mentioned: "I ask about dating, broad questions like ‘Are you?’ and ‘Is there time?’ and ‘Can you?’ and the answer to all of them is pretty clear: ‘No.’"
Jungkook then candidly gave an answer about his perspective on dating at the present time, when he is one of the international K-pop stars. He shared that sleep is more important to BTS, implying that they don't have time to date.
He said: “The most important thing for us now is to sleep."
In addition, Jungkook also talked about how he thinks it's not easy for ̾k̾o̾r̾e̾an celebrities to have a romantic relationship at the moment. He understands that if they have a girlfriend, an artist's career can be ruined.
Furthermore, the life of a celebrity is complicated and he understands that feeling while going through it. Therefore, he also wants to keep the identity of his girlfriend if he has one and wants to protect the privacy of both, but at the moment, it is not easy for him to do that when there are too many people paying attention.
It can be seen that Jungkook worries that he is not ready and lacks many things for his girlfriend to have a safe and happy love. Therefore, love is not his priority at the moment. However, just from this, you can see what an ideal boyfriend Jungkook will be in the future!
