JungKook is famous as an all-rounder member of the international hit-sensation boy group BTS. He is also known for his artistry in a solo capacity and for being the boy crush of many. Let’s get to know our golden crush. If you are new to JungKook, here is some basic information about him. JungKook was born on Sep. 1, 1997. He pursued his dream of being an artist from an extremely young age. JungKook spent his detrimental teenage years working towards his dream, which has to be acknowledged as not only brave but involving great sacrifice to do what he loves. Not only did he achieve his vision but he excelled at it, which is how he earned himself the nickname ‘Golden Maknae’. He was even offered casting by 7 entertainment agencies before finally choosing BIGHIT. Many ARMY (BTS’ fandom) are always appreciative of the fact that he dedicates his youth to his dream and, as a result, plays a huge role as a motivator in their lives. Debuting at such a young age with such important roles in his group just goes to show how talented, courageous, and diligent he is. JungKook debuted as a member of BTS in 2013. Let’s unpack his triple threat talent. The word ‘golden’ is not associated with JungKook for no reason. From his golden vocals to his golden dance lines, we’re going to dive into all of them today. JungKook’s vocals are multiple layers of wonderful. Not only is his vocal technique top class, but his stable vocals and lung capacity whilst performing difficult choreography speak for themselves. You will no doubt be impressed with his powerful live vocals, especially. This ‘IDOL’ fancam is the perfect example. On the other hand, his vocals also have a deeply emotional aspect that will calm you through any storm. The way he uses a mix of high notes, breathiness, and falsetto in certain songs will grab you by the heart and never let you go. Check out his cover of ‘Falling’ as an example. When it comes to dance lines, JungKook’s are unrivaled. His dance lines are accurate, and clean, and make him seem like he is painting a picture with his moves. His body proportions and muscular frame also beautifully contribute to his ability to pull off demanding and dynamic choreography effortlessly. However, he is also an ace at delicate and poetic dance styles. His ability to do both is due to his steady balance, strong core, and ability to utilize his dancing to bring the key choreography to life; is the stuff of a natural-born talent match with strong work ethic. This ‘Black Swan’ fancam is the perfect example of his powerful but graceful precision. His vocals and dancing are not the ends of his talent though. JungKook is also exceptional at rapping. He especially had a lot of rap parts in the earlier half of BTS’ discography but still shines in the skill. This only goes to show his artistic range.

Let’s get to know the duality that makes it possible for him to have such a wide spectrum of skills. JungKook is one of the idols who is duality-personified. Firstly, he has his sweet baby side which is absolutely adorable.
