One of the more surprising revelations during Jungkookโs appearance was his fear of microwaves. When asked about this unusual phobia, Jungkook revealed that heโs afraid they might explode, a belief rooted in his childhood. โWhen I was young, I thought it would explode, butโฆ I am still afraid,โ he admitted, adding a touch of humour to his unusual fear.
As Jungkook continues to make waves on the global music scene, many fans are wondering when they might see him embark on a world tour. In response to this question, Jungkook mentioned that he doesnโt yet have a sufficient number of songs to undertake a world tour. He assured fans that when he feels ready, heโll consider it and even seek input from his fellow bandmates.
Jungkookโs unforgettable moment of sleeping during a livestream was also brought up. During a live stream, the singer fell asleep for 45 minutes with the camera still on, drawing an astonishing six million viewers. Although slightly embarrassed, Jungkook admitted that he was pleased that his fans enjoyed the candid moment. He blushed and, in Korean, said, โIt was a bit embarrassing.โ
