Jungkook is the vocalist/dancer of Bts (방탄소년단), a K-pop boy group under HYBE — one of the best-selling music artists of all time.
The golden maknae (youngest) of BTS, Jungkook is considered to excel at almost everything he attempts — singing, dancing, rapping, sports, art, cooking. He grew up essentially inside BTS as he joined at 13 and has evolved from shy youngest member to a confident, multitalented performer who handles almost any creative task.
