In a recent live broadcast on Weverse, BTS Jungkook took a bold stance against those who intrude on his personal life under the guise of affection.
Here's what the K-pop superstar said.
'So what?': BTS Jungkook Responds to Fans Who Told Him To Stop Drinking Live
During BTS Jungkook's engaging session with his fans on July 22, he openly admitted to having a few drinks, playfully stating:
"I'm drunk, so let's talk about this. But even if I wasn't drunk, I would have said the same thing."
Despite the lighthearted atmosphere, he addressed some serious concerns raised by fans. Apparently, some "controlling" viewers told him to stop doing a live broadcast while under the influence of alcohol.
With this, BTS Jungkook passionately defended his right to make his own decisions, urging everyone not to interfere.
"I guess people will watch this live and say 'Jungkook is drinking and doing a broadcast again.' So what? Do you guys not drink? Don't you say this or that after drinking? Just chatter away."
Jungkook I’m a giggly, cuddle, kiss every person close to me on the cheek/nose/head, kinda drunk. Your bodyguards would floor me before I’d get the chance to “handle you” https://t.co/mnjBZJnCQS

Dearest Jungkook:
I hope you are celebrating the exact way you want.
May it be drinking, or dancing or with your friends or alone or with the guys in the phone. Or having ridiculous hot sex, or with Bam and watching Netflix, getting drunk AF or crying or sleeping.…
