Love has always been a sensitive and often controversial topic in the idol industry. However, the members of BTS seem to be quite comfortable discussing it. They don’t shy away from the subject but openly answer fans’ curious questions about their ideal types, past love experiences, and even their hopes for the future.
Even soмєтнing as amusing as jealousy is soмєтнing the members take seriously and are willing to share about. Jealousy is often seen as a natural “spice” of love, but it’s still hard to imagine how global superstars like BTS would actually behave when feeling jealous in front of their girlfriends.
Through a playful test, casual discussions, and past anecdotes, fans have gotten a deeper look at how these “idol boyfriends” would react—and even heard BTS themselves decide which member is the most jealous boyfriend type in the group.
This fun topic started with a conversation among the members about the long-running кσяєαn trend known as the “perilla leaf debate.” The scenario goes like this: “If your friend sees that your girlfriend is having trouble separating a sesame leaf to eat and your friend comes to her side to help her with his own cutlery would you get jealous?”
While this might seem like nothing in many countries, in кσяєα, helping someone separate perilla leaves is considered an intimate gesture, usually reserved for people in a close relationship. This makes it a “must-ask” question for couples!
One by one, the BTS members shared their opinions - leading to a heated and hilarious debate. Jungkook was the first to firmly declare that he would never allow another man to do this for his girlfriend. He kept repeating a very resolute “No.”
BTS’s Golden Maknae even took it further, imagining that after his girlfriend and friend separate the perilla leaves together, they might hold hands and eventually get married. Just the thought of it seemed to make him lose his composure, to the point where the other members had to calm him down and told him he was taking it too far.
V fully agreed with Jungkook’s feelings and added that he would probably argue with his girlfriend if such a situation really happened. What’s more, even after the show aired, when fans brought up the same question on Weverse, V still stood his ground: “LOL. Never.”
It seems the two youngest members of BTS are the most possessive and protective boyfriends, unable to tolerate the thought of another man being close to their girlfriends—even in an imaginary scenario.
Seeing their fiery reactions, the rest of the members couldn’t help but laugh, leaving no doubt that Jungkook and V are the most jealous boyfriend types in BTS!
Meanwhile, during this debate, RM said that helping with perilla leaves wouldn’t bother him and that he wouldn’t mind. However, a past story he once shared reveals that he isn’t completely immune to jealousy.
RM confessed on a TV program that his high school girlfriend received a lot of attention from other boys, and that made him feel uneasy and frustrated. So, it’s safe to say he’s not that different from his younger members after all!
These candid confessions make the topic even more fun and give fans a glimpse into each member’s personality. ARMYs couldn’t hide their excitement seeing how their favorite idols would express love and jealousy!
