These days, it seems like Jungkook has the most tattoos and piercings combined of any K-Pop idol, or is at least among the idols with the most!

In a country that’s still as relatively conservative as South Korea, it’s uncommon to see someone with as many body modifications as Jungkook, but he wears them proudly, and overall it seems that most of BTS’s fans enjoy them too.

Recently, however, a post was made on an online forum sharing some rare images of Jungkook without any of his piercings!

Of course, he didn’t always have all of the piercings he does now, such as during BTS’s early days when Jungkook was still a teenager.

But the gifs shared on this post seem more recent, and show what Jungkook looks like without even any of his ear piercings in, which is strange to see!

Even with his piercings, Jungkook still has a soft and innocent aura about him, but without any of them in, he looks even moreso. These days, it seems most common to see Jungkook with some of his piercings in, but not all of them, such as the eyebrow piercing that he has since let fill back in.

His lip piercing and several ear piercings are still going strong, though, much to the delight of many ARMYs!

Here’s how Korean netizens are reacting to the post, sharing their feelings on how Jungkook looks both with and without any of his piercings:

- I f*cking love both!!ㅜㅜ

- Ha I really love them all

- Love it

- They’re both just… Apparent (good-looking)

- I love it all really,,,

- I apparently loved piercings

- When Kkookie was a baby, he got a bunch of gages and light would shine through themㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

- Yeah you’re right, gage piercingsㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

- Jungkook just turned 26He can remove everything and i will always love him and is not letting us breath he got a lip piercing next thing we know he got a belly or nipple piercing

- He can remove everything and i will always love him

International fans have also shared their sentiments on Jungkook and his piercings, and seem especially fond of how he looks with them in:

- he can do whatever he wants to do

- Army love him so much

- JUNGKOOK LIP PIERCING

- Jungkook can doing whatever he wants

- He can do whatever he wants..he helps small business like kombutcha v also wear bracelet to help small company that's the only thing they can do then suddenly this thing happened if they don't like bts to do that then you should do then tell us the result.leave them alone.

- Jungkook is a grown ass man he can do everything he wants

- While everyone is focusing on his (piercing or not piercing) I can’t stop looking at Jungkook’s gorgeous face. He looks so unreal

- different colour eye lenses, eyebrow piercing, ear piercing, black hair with forehead.. oh god...

 - Jeon jungkook driving me crazy

- Does it ever make u go crazy that JEON JUNGKOOK man of 25 has an arm full of TATTOOS?? Lip with piercing?? Eye brows with piercing???? Does it make u go crazy????

- This is hands down the most attractive photo of any idol to ever exist IDC IDC

- The fact that he still looks super cute with his piercings, jungkook i love you

- His charm among other things is his grunge + cute look. A combination that shouldn't work but does

- that lip piercings fits him like a glove

- He looks good with and without them. I mean he started out many years without them and it wasn't until recently he got all these piercings so it is not like he's had them forever. 

With or without his piercings, there’s no denying what a fine man Jungkook has become!
