If fans remember, the event of Jungkook deleting his Instagram account in March 2023 ѕнσ¢кed the world. Up until now, ARMYs have had little hope for his return to this social network.
Before that, when he first owned a personal Instagram account, Jungkook even showed great pαѕѕion for it and learned how to decorate his newsfeed from j-hope. But then, when he deleted his account, Jungkook gave a reason that could not be simple and surprised fans.
It is worth noting that a previous advice from j-hope was also related to Jungkook's ѕнσ¢кing decision that year:
All 7 BTS members started using personal Instagram accounts at the end of 2021. Having a personal Instagram account is part of the promotion campaign for both celebrities and also a way for them to communicate with their fan base.
Meanwhile, just 1 year after opening his personal account, Jungkook completely deleted it. At the time he deleted his personal Instagram account, he was the second most followed кσяєαn male artist on Instagram, second only to V, with nearly 56 million followers.
Surprisingly, in the previous times, Jungkook showed a strong pαѕѕion for trying to create attractive topics on his account. He repeatedly made ARMYs dizzy when he deleted his Instagram feed to create a new one. He changed the feed with artistic photos, carefully reposting them in an aesthetic layout that he thought would be attractive.
Witnessing this, fans at that time could not help but think that Jungkook had consulted j-hope for his personal Instagram page. j-hope also posted carefully planned photos on his Instagram from December 6, 2021 to February 17, 2022. He took artistic polaroid photos and recorded his outfits and daily activities. At that time, j-hope was considered a stylish and professional Instagram user.
An ARMY even asked j-hope directly on Weverse, “Hope, did you teach Jungkook how to decorate his Instagram~?ㅋㅋㅋ”. He actually saw the post later and prophesied, “ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ I told him that it’s going to be really~ difficult~ later on”.
Seeing Jungkook struggling with his Instagram layout, j-hope seemed to have made a prediction for his future Instagram career. At the time, ARMYs even bet with each other on whether j-hope's prediction would come true in the future!
Surprisingly, it was completely true because shortly after, BTS's Maknae gave up everything related to the platform. Jungkook ended his Instagram at the beginning of 2023, much to the disappointment of his fans. He also stated the reason behind his action: “I quitted Instagram. I didn’t get hacked! : )I didn’t really end up using it, so I deleted it… Don’t worry!!!
When Jungkook explained the reason for deleting Instagram, fans were surprised because he had always been pαѕѕionate about taking care of the account. ARMYs have been taking a long time to remember user alphabet & jungkook.97 and the moments he shared before, including a surprise live broadcast with V.
But ARMYs don't have to be sad for too long because Jungkook has been keeping in touch with fans through Weverse and live broadcasts for hours at a time overnight. Not long after, ARMYs also tracked him down on another social media platform - TikTok.
Meanwhile, Jungkook recently reopened his Instagram account but for his pet Bam. A Youtube channel was also created for the dog, predicting the future with interesting content about Jungkook and Bam's life after he is discharged from the army. So the only thing ARMYs can look forward to these days is when Jungkook completes his military service!
