BTS member Jungkook has fired back at online haters with a cool and calculated response.
On July 22, Jungkook communicated with fans during a live broadcast on a fan community platform.
During the broadcast, Jungkook started a sincere conversation by saying, "I'm drunk. That's why I'm talking like this. But I would have talked this way even if I weren't drunk."
"Watching this live, some people might say 'Jungkook is doing a broadcast drunk'. So what. Don't you guys drink? Don't you talk about this and that when you drink? Go ahead, talk all you want," he said. Following this, Jungkook added, "I've said this in interviews before. I want to take care of those who like me, who say nice things to me, more than anyone else."
In particular, Jungkook showed an honest side of himself by telling those negative commentators who only look for the bad things, "I'm just going to live like this," as if to tell them not to worry about him. Fans also agreed with Jungkook's statements, expressing reactions such as "he's honest," and "that's refreshing."
Meanwhile, Jungkook also discussed his first solo song, 'Seven'. When asked about the reason for making the 'dirty' version, he questioned back, "Why is it a dirty version? Explain the reason. Why do you think it's dirty?" He added, "Everyone feels different. If that's how it feels, then there's nothing I can do. I had a lot of concerns about which version to release. Because the person interpreting it in the clean version is different and the way it is interpreted in the explicit version is also different. I thought that would be very interesting."
Moreover, Jungkook expressed, "I want to find something new, make it interesting, and be recognized for it." He continued, "I was really scared about trying something new. I didn't even want to do it originally, but you guys made it for me. I gained a lot of courage. Now, I don't want to show a weak side to you guys."
On July 14, Jungkook released his first solo album, 'Seven'.
