But his story isn't just about awards, records, or stages. Jung Kook went from being a boy from Busan who came to Seoul to pursue a dream to becoming a world-renowned artist, all while growing up practically in front of the public.

And perhaps one of the most beautiful parts of his story is precisely that: he never stopped being the maknae who started his journey alongside his six hyungs, but he had to learn, little by little, to also become an adult and an artist in his own right.
Jungkook is one of the main vocalists of BTS and debuted with the group in 2013, becoming its maknae (youngest member). With BTS, he achieved numerous international records and awards, including several number one hits on the Billboard Hot 100.
