BTS’ Junkook Gets Mobbed At Airport, Fans Call Him “Hi there, Bro”: Watch

1 years ago By Neil Ross

BTS’ youngest sensation, Jungkook, is soaring high in his career, but with fame comes a few challenges. The talented singer found himself at the center of chaos once again, this time at the John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York City. Just days before his headline performance at the Global Citizen Festival on September 23, 2023, fans swarmed around him, raising questions about boundaries and personal space.

The Rise of BTS’ Maknae

Jeon Jung-kook, fondly known as Jungkook, embarked on his musical journey a decade ago in 2013 alongside his six bandmates. While BTS is currently on a hiatus, the 26-year-old artist is channeling his energy into his solo career, marked by milestones and global recognition.

A Mob Scene in the Big Apple

Jungkook’s arrival in the Big Apple on September 21 was met with frenzy. Media and fans alike gathered at the airport, eager to catch a glimpse of the K-pop idol. Amidst the crowd, a moment unfolded when a fan, phone in hand, approached him and casually greeted, “Hi there, bro.” This friendly gesture might have seemed harmless, but it has sparked quite a controversy within the ARMY fandom.

The ‘Bro’ Dilemma

Jungkook had previously expressed his desire for fans to treat him like an old friend, encouraging them to say, “Hey, what’s up, bro” when they spot him. However, during another livestream, he clarified his stance, expressing discomfort when fans cross the line and invade his personal space.

This incident at the airport appeared to be a breach of security and personal boundaries. Furious ARMYs took to Twitter to express their disappointment. One ARMY commented, “The way that the Jungkook ‘bro’ video isn’t funny at all. He just got off a 14-hour flight, and a bunch of people decided to crowd him at the airport, overstepping his boundaries and personal space.”

Another fan voiced their concerns, stating, “Pretty sure this is not what Jungkook meant by ‘if you see him, call him bro.’” A third fan pointed out the stark difference between the intended friendly gesture and what occurred at the airport, emphasizing that stalking and invading his personal space were not what Jungkook had in mind.

A Reminder of the BTS Lineup

Beyond Jungkook’s individual success, BTS comprises seven immensely talented members, including V, RM, Jin, Jimin, J-Hope, and Suga.

In conclusion, while the excitement around Jungkook’s arrival in New York City was palpable, it’s crucial for fans to respect the boundaries and personal space of their beloved idols. Jungkook’s journey from a young aspiring musician to a global superstar deserves admiration and support, but it should also be coupled with an understanding of the importance of personal space and respect for their well-being.
