While the idol has chosen to keep all activities under wraps, his vacation photos have brought an onslaught of criticism along with malicious comments.
Jungkook flooded with hate comments
Ever since the youngest member of BTS returned from his military discharge, his recent activities have become a hot topic online. Since he does not have a personal social media account like his fellow members, fans usually approach the idol on the account he manages to share content about his dog, Bam.
His recent activities, i.e. travelling with Jimin to Switzerland, have managed to garner a lot of criticism and hate. On June 25 and 26, netizens had been flooding his dog's account with harsh and majorly homophobic comments. The comments mainly targeted the idol for spending time with Jimin and for not focusing on his solo activities.

Fans of the idol soon came to his rescue. Many reported the malicious comments and flooded the comments section with messages of love and support in order to make sure that the 'SEVEN' singer does not come across the mean posts.
One fan comment read, 'Jungkook, you're doing a great job! We are so proud! Don't worry, you'll get over it soon! We are always on your side! I am proud of you always! We love you infinitely. If the world seems too noisy, let us be your silence.
Real armies are always with you! Stop thinking about people who only try to pull you down. They're not even an army, they're just traitors.'
Another comment that a fan posted in support of the idol read that 'JUNGKOOK WE LOVE YOU. JUNGKOOK BEST BOY. JUNGKOOK OUR PRIDE'.

(Photo Credit: Instagram) With the Hallyu wave taking over the world, one name that is leading the charge is none other than the K-pop supergroup BTS, also known as Bangtan Boys. Formed in 2013 under BigHit Entertainment (now HYBE), the group has become one of the most prominent names in the music industry. Consisting of RM, Jin, Suga, J-Hope, Jimin, V and Jungkook, BTS enjoys a fan following in millions, if not billions, across the globe. Following the completion of their mandatory military service, the septet is busy making their brand-new album, scheduled to be released sometime in the first half of 2026, if all goes well. And if you can't wait for the new songs, we suggest you revisit some of their old hits. Here are five BTS songs that you need to add to your Spotify playlist. N.O Also known as 'No Offence', the song was released in 2013 as the lead single of their first EP O!RUL8,2? (Oh! Are You Late, too?). Through this hip-hop song, the group questions Korea's take on education. They asked their peers not to be forced into following their parents' dreams. Instead, encouraged them to stand up for themselves and have their own dreams. Attack On Bangtan Another song from O!RUL8,2? (Oh! Are You Late, too?) It is one of their anthemic songs, which was released in 2013. The title is a playful nod to the popular anime Attack on Titan. The lyrics of the song are bold and full of confidence, as the group sings about their determination to succeed in the music scene. Run The lead single from their fourth EP, titled The Most Beautiful Moment in Life, Pt. 2, was released in 2015. The lyrics of this rock song encourage its fans to persevere, rising up and running every time they are knocked down by obstacles in their path. BTS also tell everyone that it's alright to make mistakes. I Need U One of the tracks on their third EP, The Most Beautiful Moment in Life Part 1, I Need U explores the theme of pain and confusion in a toxic love. Through the lyrics, they sing about how they are being ruined by the love and want for that person, and want them out of their lives. Make It Right A song on BTS' 2019 EP Map of the Soul: Persona, 'Make It Right," is a collaboration between the septet and Lauv, co-written by Ed Sheeran. Through the song, the group sings about making the world a better place and their desire to give it back to someone who helped them find their way. In this case, it is interpreted as their way of showing appreciation to their ardent fans. Kashvi Raj Singh Kashvi Raj Singh is a Sub Editor at News18.

Remember when BTS's V stole the spotlight from 'Squid Game'? The Pink Soldier moment that sparked buzz
The Pink Soldier That Conquered Social Media Picture this: You're at a BTS concert in Los Angeles in 2021, and suddenly one of the world's biggest K-pop stars emerges dressed as a menacing pink soldier from the hit series 'Squid Game. ' That's exactly what happened when BTS member V decided to surprise fans during their Permission to Dance concert series, creating a moment that would break the internet not just once, but repeatedly over the years. The video of V's dramatic reveal - where he removes the iconic triangular mask to show his face - has now accumulated massive viewership across various short video platforms. What makes this even more remarkable is that V doesn't maintain personal accounts on most of these platforms, yet his content consistently outperforms dedicated influencers and content creators. The impact was immediate and global. Netflix itself couldn't resist commenting, stating "We're obsessed with BTS X Squid Game, but V should never wear a mask". The concert moment became a perfect storm of cultural phenomena - combining the global Squid Game craze with BTS's massive fanbase. The timing couldn't have been better, as Squid Game had just taken the world by storm, and V's playful interpretation of the show's menacing guards created an irresistible contrast that social media algorithms loved. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like No annual fees for life UnionBank Credit Card Apply Now Undo The Numbers Game: Why This Video Keeps Winning What's fascinating about V's viral moment is how it demonstrates the power of authentic, spontaneous content. The video has generated significant engagement across multiple platforms, garnering millions of views and countless interactions from fans worldwide. The original concert footage shows V appearing on stage wearing the complete pink soldier uniform, complete with the triangular mask that became synonymous with the series. As the music builds, he slowly removes the mask to reveal his face, sending the concert audience into absolute hysteria. The moment was perfectly choreographed yet felt completely natural - a testament to V's stage presence and understanding of viral content. The Ripple Effect: From Concert Stage to Cultural Phenomenon The video gained renewed attention when Squid Game Season 2 was announced in December 2024. Billboard Korea highlighted how "concert videos and photos are going viral again," showcasing the enduring power of V's moment. This resurgence demonstrates how certain content transcends its original context to become timeless digital artifacts. The phenomenon extends beyond just views. The video sparked countless recreation attempts, memes, and reaction videos across multiple platforms. International K-pop fans created their own versions, with some attempting to recreate the exact moment while others used it as inspiration for Halloween costumes and themed photoshoots. Professional choreographers and dance studios worldwide began incorporating elements of V's dramatic reveal into their own performances. The mask removal became a signature move that many tried to replicate, though few could match V's natural charisma and timing. The Social Media King Without a Crown Perhaps the most impressive aspect of V's digital dominance is that he achieves these numbers without dedicated personal accounts on many major platforms. His collaborations and appearances consistently break records - his recent dance video with choreographer Lee Jung Lee set another milestone with substantial engagement. V's success reflects broader trends in the global digital landscape, where authentic, entertaining content performs exceptionally well. Short-form video platforms have created ecosystems where genuine moments can achieve massive reach. The fact that V's 2021 concert moment continues generating views in 2025 speaks to the timeless nature of quality content. The BTS member has also participated in viral trends like the "aura farming kid" dance, showing his ability to bridge Korean pop culture with global internet phenomena. His content consistently demonstrates that in the age of short-form video, personality and authenticity matter more than polished production values. This Squid Game moment perfectly encapsulates why V remains one of the most talked-about figures in global entertainment - his ability to create culturally resonant content that transcends language barriers and platform limitations continues to set new benchmarks for viral success.
