Jungkook once again proved that he prioritizes ARMY over everything else when he held a live stream right after his historic performance at the 2022 FIFA World Cup opening ceremony. Even if he did tired and hungry after the performance, he also wanted to directly thank ARMYs.
Naturally, during his brief Weverse Live livestream, Jungkook also revealed his true feelings about his historic performance. show in its live stream. But in doing so, he once again showed his true self.
Not only that, but Jungkook revealed what makes him even more nervous than performing on stage with 60,000 people:
Jungkook flew to Qatar on November 15, where he received a warm welcome upon arrival. From then on, the rest is history.
Jungkook became the first Korean artist to perform at the opening ceremony of the World Cup, making ARMYs truly shaken with his stunning performance of “Dreamers” and proving that “solo artist Jungkook” is on another level. He caught the world's attention with his vibrant and atmospheric performance of the World Cup. There is nothing more to be proud of than this legendary performance.
However, despite the praise he received, Jungkook still stated that he was not completely satisfied with his performance. When he mentioned this on Weverse Live, Jungkook made fans feel that he is actually a very progressive and hard-working person. It also proves why he is as successful and respected as he is now.
Specifically, Jungkook told ARMYs that: "I was nervous thinking about what you guys would say about the performance. It was honestly not a performance I quite thought was perfect".
Maybe it's because Jungkook always pursues perfection that this performance hasn't made him 100% satisfied yet. Even if Jungkook didn't have much time to learn the choreography of the song previously, even just learning the choreo for the chorus a day before the opening ceremony, he still performed it perfectly.
In addition, Jungkook also revealed that compared to standing on the big stage, meeting the Korean men's national football team in Qatar made him more nervous. Specifically, this morning, Jungkook visited Al-Egla Training Center in Doha, Qatar to meet the Korean National Team and wish them luck for the tournament. He was also gifted a jersey and took a photo with all the players.
Jungkook shared about the moment he reunited with his compatriots that: "I met the national football team! There was a lot of things that came out while I was sleeping. I was wondering what I was doing there and if I could be there. I felt like I was more nervous meeting the players than the stage. So I tried to make it quick, I said hello and gave them a message of support. I got an uniform!"
But the meeting left the Korean players impressed and enthusiastic cheers came from the pride of their country. Surely with the wishes from Jungkook, the Korean team will have more spirit to compete!
