Jungkook has debuted for more than a decade and is already a mature man after all these years. Therefore, it is not difficult to understand that his love story has become the most popular topic today. There have also been many false rumors about Jungkook having a girlfriend over the years.
Meanwhile, Jungkook is one of the most honest idols about his private life. During a live broadcast not long ago, Jungkook shared frankly with fans about when he would date and even get married.
Jungkook's statement made fans laugh, but it was also a sharp answer to false rumors about his personal life.
Dating for K-pop artists is an important issue, especially with globally famous stars like Jungkook, the dating story is getting more attention than ever. There have been many cases where an idol's dating story affected the career of not only the idol himself but also the entire group.
Therefore, as top stars like BTS, the members are also very cautious when it comes to their personal lives. But that doesn't mean they don't make their status public or shy away from questions related to dating or girlfriends. Especially Jungkook, he frankly stated his opinion on when he will date or get married.
Specifically, during a broadcast with fans on Stationhead, Jungkook cleverly responded to a fan's comment related to this topic. A fan said that her mother called Jungkook her son-in-law, he then had an adorable reaction to answer the fan's mother. He said frankly: "Your mother calls me son in law? Hello mother! I'm sorry but.. for a couple years, I'm just going to focus on working hard, I hope you understand!"
Not stopping there, Jungkook also gave a straightforward response when there were rumors about him dating a girl at his home and said that now is not the time he wants to spend on love. He stated on another Stationhead broadcast: "I'm saying this because I keep seeing comments about it, but I don't have a girlfriend! I just want to work right now. I don't have a girlfriend! I don't feel the need....Okay my girlfriend is ARMYs, I only have ARMYs".
Fans implicitly understood that Jungkook's strong statements were to put an end to controversial stories and a series of rumors about him dating and even living with his girlfriend that spread on SNS during that time. Jungkook's current statement directly cleared up doubts, making fans even more confident that all previous rumors were aimed at sabotaging his reputation. What Jungkook said will also put to rest any thoughts of spreading false dating rumors about him in the years to come.
Meanwhile, Jungkook is not the only member of BTS caught up in unfounded dating rumors. SUGA and IU were also rumored to be dating after many collaborations even though they were actually just friends and IU was also dating Lee Jong Suk. RM was even rumored to have secretly married a tycoon's lady while V's dating rumors with Jennie (BLACKPINK) lasted for many years....
Even though HYBE and BTS have made it clear that they don't care about these false, evidence-free rumors, those spreading the news still try to hype it up. This not only makes fans but even idols feel tired. Luckily, BTS members have directly or indirectly expressed their opinions many times, so fans always feel confident and are not led by bad guys!
