With their near-perfection in every aspect and undeniable charm, the BTS members have surely received millions of “proposals” from fans—and even numerous female celebrities—all around the world. Yet, none have ever had a real chance! All were politely turned down by the members themselves.
That’s precisely what keeps fans and the public endlessly curious: What kind of person could possibly capture the hearts of these global K-pop superstars?
Fortunately, BTS hasn’t been too secretive about this matter. Over the years, they’ve openly shared their thoughts on ideal types in interviews, variety shows, and even livestreams.
Based on those candid moments, we’ve compiled a list of criteria that make up BTS’s idea of the “perfect girlfriend.” And through that, you might also find out who has the most relaxed standards—and who’s the pickiest!
Starting with the hyung line—eldest member Jin once revealed that he’s easily drawn to women who can cook and take care of a home. He also appreciates a gentle personality and a soft, feminine style, such as oversized tops, jeans, and sneakers.
Meanwhile, SUGA didn’t give a detailed list of traits but emphasized the importance of a strong first impression. When asked what he’d like to say to his future wife, he simply replied, “A word for a kind woman: Please take good care of me.”
On the other hand, if you’re hoping to win over BTS’s leader RM, take note of some small but important details—especially in appearance. He once said that a woman wearing high heels could catch his eye, as it gives off a very feminine vibe.
RM also mentioned that he likes someone who is both smart and feminine, with a soothing, attractive voice. He’s drawn to people who can hold deep conversations and have a clear sense of direction in life. Notably, he dislikes women who smoke or party excessively.
As for j-hope, he places high importance on personality, sincerity, and appearance. In a recent chat with Sana from TWICE, he added that he’s especially attracted to someone who thinks differently from him—someone with her own unique perspective.
“I haven’t been asked that in 10 years… But I do have a clear answer. It has to be someone different from me… I feel a spark when someone has a different perspective from mine. For example, if there’s a pear drink, I’d think it has pear inside. But someone else might answer from a totally different angle", he mentioned.
Moving on to the maknae line, V and Jimin have ideal types that focus more on personality and appearance. V once said he’s drawn to someone unique and pure. He also revealed that he’d be especially touched if a girl made him hot cocoa in the morning—just a small act that speaks volumes.
Jimin has admitted that he’s attracted to charming and slightly quirky traits. While soft, feminine beauty catches his eye, it’s someone caring, emotionally open, and loving in small gestures—like cooking or comforting him when he’s down—who would truly win his heart.
Finally, Jungkook might just have the “highest” or “strictest” standards when it comes to ideal types, despite being the youngest member. In early interviews during BTS’s debut days, he mentioned being drawn to tall girls with fair skin.
However, in later interviews as he matured, Jungkook began placing greater value on intelligence and refinement in a woman.
Even a teacher named Kim Dong Wook - currently a teacher of кσяєαn language arts at Seoul University mentioned Jungkook in his introduction poster as follows: "Want to marry Jungkook Uh? You have to get into Seoul University first. Jungkook's ideal type is a girl who is smart and stu∂ιєs hard."
Though meant humorously, it speaks volumes. Seoul National University is known as Korea’s most prestigious institution, reserved for the most intelligent, disciplined, and driven individuals—precisely the qualities Jungkook now values.
In other interviews, Jungkook also shared that he prefers girls who are able to strike up conversations and take the lead in love, since he’s not great at initiating things himself. He’s also hinted that he likes someone who can match his playful energy and teasing nature.
So, if you’re hoping to catch his eye, be sure to show off your smarts, cuteness, and charm—with a touch of confidence too!
