BTS Jungkook has ever since revealed how much he appreciates the soloist and actress IU many times.
Jungkook crushing on IU is an old topic in the K-pop world, yet his moments with one of South Korea's best singers will always thrill the mob. From his palpable excitement when her presence is near to promoting her music, he is totally into her.
Let's take a look at those top 5 moments, proving that the BTS idol is IU's fanboy.
1. Jungkook secretly watches his ideal girl from afar.
He might be lucky enough to get the opportunity to see his crush many times, given that both are engaged in the same circle of people. Nevertheless, when he gets the chance to snatch a look when she is not aware of, it indeed thrills the fans.
2. Jungkook wore IU's signature bunny mascot.
Remember the grey-colored bunny onesie that IU wore in one of her TV appearances? Surprisingly, the BTS heartthrob wore the same plush costume in one of their performances. It might be some coincidence, but keen-eyed viewers were certain that he was trying to do some outfit twinning with his idol.
3. Jungkook plays IU's songs whenever, wherever.
Other BTS members said that they always have IU's music because of Jungkook. Like any normal fanboy, he has been patronizing her music ever since. Fans once noted that he promoted her music on social media. What makes it more interesting is that he posted it on the break of dawn. Now THAT is A+ for effort.
4. Jungkook started learning to play the guitar.
In one of the interviews, he revealed that his admiration for the singer took him to start learning the strings. IU is known to play such an instrument, and as a fanboy, it surely is a common thing. Her music is indeed an inspiration.
5. Jungkook consistently declares IU is his idea girl.
Many times, BTS members were asked about their ideal girl. What makes it more amazing is that Jungkook never fails to give a single answer. He would always tell everyone how he likes IU. In one incident, he also felt shy with such revelation. "Are there reporters listening?" He asked when he was about to tell the K-pop singer and actress' name.
Uaenas, IU's fandom name, are aware of Jungkook's huge admiration for their well-loved icon. They would shout Jungkook's name while she is on stage. One time, she talked about Busan, and the crowd suddenly aired, "Jungkook!"
"She loves Jungkook's hometown," some added. If this situation arises, she usually replies with a sweet smile.
BTS's Jungkook proving he is IU's ultimate fanboy could be a normal thing regardless of his status as an icon. The only thing that sets him apart from everyone is that he has a lot of opportunities to rub elbows with his ultimate crush-no wonder why fans are shipping them.
