In Kpop, there are many cases where siblings or cousins who debuted together are celebrities. That makes people admire the talent and luck of themselves and their families.
As for BTS, their brothers are kept very secret, but there doesn't seem to be any record of any member's brothers or relatives debuting as idols. But recently, netizens are buzzing with the beauty of someone who is said to be Jungkook's cousin and people think that he is no different from a K-pop idol.
Here is a portrait of the person netizens are talking about recently as Jungkook's cousin:
For many ARMYs, the BTS members' families still have many secrets, but it seems that the family members are well known by ARMYs. The siblings of BTS members are usually very secretive and there are very few people working in the entertainment industry or related to showbiz.
Except for j-hope's sister who is a youtuber, KOL and CUBE's fashion director, most of the rest of the BTS members' family are not celebrities. They are only famous in their business and for the fandom ARMYs.
Meanwhile, some of the members have very special and known cousins who themselves have publicly acknowledged their relationship with one of the BTS members. For example, RM's cousin - who is a famous boxer. She has claimed to be his cousin and they have also given each other words of encouragement even though they rarely see each other due to their busy jobs.
Besides RM, netizens seem to be surprised to see a picture of Jungkook's cousin recently. Based on some of his facial features plus some aggregated news, many people say that he is a relative of BTS Jungkook.
An image taken 8 years ago during a Taekwondo show that BTS performed with a teenage Taekwondo group called K-Tigers, Jungkook and his cousin also appeared in it. Now, the person said to be Jungkook's cousin in the photo is now 22 years old and he has become a mature man and possesses the same beauty as an idol.
His visual is said to be a balance between masculinity and cuteness. Many netizens even think that he is not inferior to the beauty of his cousin - Jungkook. And if that's true, he's probably just as talented as Jungkook:
- If you cant marry jungkook marry his cousin but if you cant marry his cousin marry theyre fanboys but..Sometimes armies are thinking that jungkooks wife is the luckiest guy and we also think that jungkooks cousin wife is lucky too because if his cousin have a wife jungkooks cousins wife can see jungkook right? if his cousin have wife or gf his cousins gf can see cooky or whole bts
- If I can't with Kook, I'll get his cousin.
- when he was little he was very similar to Jungkook, but why as an adult he started to look like Lai Guanlin?
- I think he is as talented as his older brother
- The two also have interested in Taekwondo
- How do you think if Jungkook taught him learning Taekwondo?
- Wow, this visual is so shocking, he looks like as an idol
- Their family is the best at visual and talent
However, later, some ARMYs pointed out that the person in the photo with Jungkook was just a member of the Taekwondo group who had the opportunity to meet Jungkook that year. The two are not really related to each other. This guy's name is Kang Gunwoo and he is still working in Taekwondo related work.
Many people regret that he possesses the beauty like an idol or model but did not choose to follow this path. But anyway it makes clear whether he is related to Jungkook or not.
In the past, there was also a rumor that a girl who was supposed to be Jungkook's cousin would be on a HYBE survival show but then there was no confirmed news and she didn't appear on the show either. there. However, it can be seen that anyone who is said to be related to Jungkook gets a lot of attention, especially when they still have idol-like visuals!
