Jungkook has reminded ARMYs multiple times that he’s no longer their baby bunny. While the BTS star’s personality remains cute and adorable, the “My Time” singer has grown taller and bigger. In fact, he’s one of the heaviest boys in the group despite being the youngest.
One of the biggest physical changes that Jungkook did was getting tattoos. While ARMYs have seen Jungkook’s hand ink several times, the 23-year-old singer, songwriter, and record producer have been wearing sweaters, jackets, coats, and long sleeves that covered up his whole arm.
Big Hit staff, most of the time, covered Jungkook’s tattoos because they are not openly accepted in South Korea. While tattoos are not illegal in the country, they are quite controversial. With JK being a member of the biggest boy band on the planet right now, his clean image is very important because any minor mistake or controversy will affect the group.
But, after learning the authenticity of Jungkook’s tattoos, international ARMYs have been urging the BTS star to show them. The group has been reminding their fans to love themselves for years and many believe that the golden maknae should practice what they preach — and he’s slowly doing just that.
Instead of wearing sweaters, long sleeves, and gloves, Jungkook has been wearing short-sleeve shirts when he feels like it. Even if he’ll wear a long-sleeved top, he doesn’t seem to be worried about his tattoos peeking as he did before.
In the latest Bangtan Bomb, Jungkook was wearing a black blazer as they watch the B-Side version of “Dynamite." But, eagle-eyed ARMYs still manage to see that he added new ink to his growing collection. (Check out the photo here).
Jungkook, also, flaunted his tattoos in a sneak peek that came from BTS’s preview of their Japan Official Fanmeeting Vol.5. In footage from 2019, JK can be seen wearing a short-sleeved shirt that showed off his tattooed hand and forearm.
On the wee hours of May 3, Jungkook posted a clip of himself singing to Lauv’s “Never Not,” wearing a short-sleeved shirt that flaunted more of his tattoos. (Watch the video here). The BTS star appeared to be done with covering himself up and confidently showed his tattoos to everyone.
ARMYs have been loving how Jungkook is getting more comfortable showing his tattoos. A lot of them are very happy and proud of him.
